The newest martial arts craze to hit the town?!?? Imported from Kobe, Japan??? Hahaha! No, no, no! The Art of Oshasha is purely Pinoy (and purely the creation of neurotic minds like mine). Although thinking about it, it may have some roots in Japan's practice of Zen. Oshasha means....Letting Go. Bwahahahaha. So ano, gets mo na? From Bratty "BOO!" to LetGo-LetGod "Oshasha". Clap-clap-clap...Do I smell maturity?? hehehe
So what is "Oshasha"?Oshasha leads you to blissful tralalas. Happiness over the silliest things, and enjoyment of the finer things in life (okay, not quite). But practice the art of Oshasha and you will find yourself easily pleased, and you'll discover a more content, and more fulfilled you.
However, it is crucial to practice Oshasha only when the time is right. Discernment and introspection is highly necessary. Oshasha does not work if you are half-hearted about it. Oshasha must be seen ONLY as your reserved bullet, your final push to the finish line, your last ounce of strength. If practiced otherwise, Oshasha is unlikely to work, and you might end up disappointing yourself. Oshasha too soon and you might live a life of regret. So when should you resort to Oshasha? Only when you have exhausted all other means (without losing your dignity, please).
Saying "Oshasha" is accepting that you no longer have control over the situation. You accept that there are greater powers over you. You realize that sometimes, trying to fix the situation can do more damage than good. And you say "oshasha", either out loud or to yourself, and leave it all up to fate. No pointing fingers, no one else to blame. Just pure acceptance of the things that you cannot change. Taking responsibility over your actions, and being content with the way things are. Oshasha.
After a long and emotional conversation, you say Oshasha, mark it as the end of the day and retreat to bed. Then look forward to a new day. After crying your heart and eyes out, just say Oshasha, let it all go, and move on. But remember, don't confuse Oshasha with saying "yes". It is not a passive submission to what you cannot control. More than that, it is ACCEPTANCE. Accepting the past, being happy about it and the way things are, and looking forward to the future.
And when you accept the way things are, and see the beauty in what you already have, you learn to appreciate more, and you end up a happier person. When you're happier, others are also happy to be around you. And then you attract good things, and that makes you even happier.
The Art of Oshasha. Simple as that. :)
