5 Crazy Reasons To Go Fishing – (And Why Fishing is Like Life) –https://joysofjoel.wordpress.com/

Fishing is a great time buster , a way to enjoy nature and a great stress reliever. I can actually cite a hundred reasons to do it but i respect your time so i come up with just 5 good ones:

1.  Relationship

Fishing with family and friends cultivate bonding. It strengthens your relationship when you have enjoyable shared activities with people who mattered.  Well, unless of course you start fishing into their private life behind their back, that’s a different story. Proves that you don’t really need to go outdoors to go fishing. Just go online, log in to your facebook and you can tweet who’s got the largest fish in the group.

2. Health Reasons

It’s always better to get your own fish…fresh, as wild fish are known to be low in fat and cholesterol and high in protein and there are many fishes in the ocean, especially the wild ones! 🙂

3. Fulfillment 

You get a certain fulfillment.  Who wouldn’t?  After a long bout of sitting and  doing nothing, it’s such a great joy catching a big fish.

4. Creativity

It  brings out the best in you.  You find creative ways of using  a great pawn to bait the one you’ve been longing for.

5. Knowledge

Fishing is educational.
– It teaches you a lot of lessons.
– You learned more about yourself, your strengths, hopes and wishes.
– It tests your patience and willpower  that no matter what, by hook or by crook you won’t go home empty handed.

Fishing is like life,  just when you thought you had the perfect expensive equipment to catch that elusive fish, somewhere along the way you’ll discover that it’s not how much you have or how prepared you are for that moment that gives you the exact advantage.

And at the start of that fishing expedition you won’t really settle for anything less than that “huge catch”  because you rightfully deserve something bigger , not until you realized that it’s almost dusk, you’d rather have one crappy fish than nothing at all.

It Will Never Be A Long Walk If Someone Is Holding Your Hand

It will never be a long walk if someone is holding your hand, joys of joel poem, faith
It will never be a long walk if someone is holding your hand – https://joysofjoel.wordpress.com/

A beautiful scene i captured in Quebec City not too long ago inspired me to create a poetry.  Hand in hand i remember someone who’s there to lend a hand.

It Will Never Be A Long Walk If Someone Is Holding Your Hand

A child to make you stay
A lover who holds you long
Friends and Family who treasures you all along

Whoever, whatever it is
Truly,  it will never be a long walk
if someone is holding your hand.

The Painting and The Mirror by Joel F

The Painting and The Mirror , joys of joel quotes, quote about paintings and mirrors,
The Painting and The Mirror – https://joysofjoel.wordpress.com/

 

Feelings are like mirrors. It trick us with our reflections.  Emotions are like paintings, it is subject to one’s interpretation.

For the eye is not open when it is limited to the lightings in the mirror. And the wisdom to understand the paintings through the colors of one’s emotions is always on a standstill until someone told you it isn’t so.

But  how can they refute the visible stroke of the brush that you see when you see someone’s masterpiece as not your own but a part of what you long for?

As the mirror spreads the light and the painting shows its colors, you gasped in awe how your face changes sometimes. Some days you see a youthful face, some days you see wrinkles. Never the same, but always changing.

Just as what Pablo Picasso once said: “Who sees the human face correctly, the photographer, the mirror or the painter?”

I know i’ll never know the answer. And i intend to keep it that way.

The Weatherman Is Not Always Right (A Poetry about False Hope and Broken Promises) – – https://joysofjoel.wordpress.com/

No rainfall
No gloomy dark night

The promise
of a magical shooting star

Warm breeze
and a sun-drenched sky

The weatherman
is not always right.
