There is an interesting cemetery located at Camp John Hay in Baguio City. It is called Pet Cemetery, Lost cemetery or Cemetery of Negativism. However, no actual animals are buried there. Rather, negative thoughts or the "greatest negativisms of all times" were buried. It was in the early 1980s, when base commander John Hightower enjoined all camp employees to think of the negative thoughts and attitudes that impeded their productivity at work, and symbolically buried them all there.
If we try to create our own cemetery of negativism, is our backyard enough to fit every negative thoughts that cross our mind?
I think this happens sometime and negativity settles into a place. It is the only reason I can find to the problems that plague one household or city or country and leaves the one next in line alone.
I am a mother of a seven year old child
I am a wife, a lover and a friend to my husband of eight years
I am a daughter to my mom and dad for 29 years.
I am a shoulder to my friends,
I am an ear to those in tears.
I am my cousin's partner in crime.
I am growing old and learning.
I constantly see myself as not that good enough, so
I am forever changing,
I am desperately trying to be better.
This is me.
