I admired the character of the teleserye of GMA's Jewel in the Palace. It is about how you will grow strong inspite of hindrances that comes along the way. Jang Geum story tolds about her parents misfortune, that brings her to realization to fight and prove her right to the palace officials and king. She is a mischeavous young lady who started her fortune, training to be a court lady in the kichen and later becomes a lady physician, who become the catalyst of change inside the palace. She have a lot of adversaries along the way including her amobitious bitter rival Geum Young and her cruel aunt Lady Choi.
Inspite of her enemy cunning and ruthlessness, jang Geum did have friends and mentors who looked after her and guided her along her difficult path to greatness.
Love grows and deepen between Jang Geum and Captain Jung ho Min an admired military man who fall in love with Jang Geums wisdom and passion for learning.

OUR MIND FUELS OUR DREAMS

Jang Geum is really a very good inspiration for those who wants to achieve there dreams. I can say that, other people is not thehindrance. What really hinders and stop us from dreaming is just our mind whose always telling us that we can't make it and we are incapacitated and doesn't have resources to reach goals in our lives. Eagerness to learn is just like building a pipeline. It's really very intricate to build. It takes a lot of planning and studying for many years, pulling of resources in order to build that for many years. But once it was built...water will flow unstopably. Generation to generation will benefit just because of what you built. Buckets are easier to reach, and you can start working with your dreams right away. But without learning, reflection and planning eventually you will get6 tired later fetching water to fill your buckets and carrying that to your household to drink a good water to use it for your necessities and sharing it to your family.

Dream building is a process. I tell you, it is not instant. I believe in the saying practice makes perfect, and experience is not the best teacher but reflected experience is the best teacher. I was learning these for many years and now I felt that I already reach critical mass, Im unstoppable.

Our mind, will, emotions, and physical body are tools that we have been given to use. Most people have mistaken Identities, they tried to better there lives but they feel so limited, stuck and trap. Some people think that they are helpless and they keep comparing themselves to other people's ability. Actually, all we need is just a realization that we are unique and we have a hidden Jewel in the palace, which is our abilities and capabilities that are hidden inside and just waiting to be discover. I really appreciated my existence here on earth. I appreciated the challenges everyday because I know that this will mold me to become a better me.

Wait for chapter two next time...Enjoy reading!
