TIRED BUT TRIUMPHANT

This is one of the most fulfilling days of my life. With the help of generous friends and family members, I get to take part in shaping the life of a child. I went alone and met new friends. The people there, though tired were passionate with their volunteer work. Just when you’ve thought how dedicated you are to this kind of work, a new friend talks to you about the volunteer work as her gift to herself on her birthday. Talk about noble intentions. Another humbling experience.

I’ve also met someone who told me something that made me realize what I wanted to pursue. It was probably the information I was waiting for. Thanks to him.

And so I walk the walk and ended up slightly wet from the rain. The memorial park provided the perfect scene for the perfect moment. The moment of reflection…about one’s life and how to live it…walking…journeying…making the most out of it…before one gets six feet below the ground.

Soon I’d be dead. It is good that I am starting to see what I really wanted to do…I start to see what really makes me happy…and I will work hard to make those things happen.

REDEMPTION

I feel so redeemed…ahehe..komo bat nakakapagsimba ka na araw-araw?!

oo naman…ansarap ng feeling…i don’t want that deed to be superficial…kasama ko si andrea palagi pag nagsisimba…oh well 3 nights pa lang naman. noong una…eh may hidden agenda kung bakit kami nagsimba..but God knows pure din naman ang aming intentions…nakaka-gulity kasi…wala na kaming ginagawa and yet we cannot spend even 30 minutes of our time to be with the Lord

grabe…sana , magtuluy-tuloy na ito at sana madami rin kaming taong mahatak sa aming pagsisimba..it really feels good after hearing God’s Word..lalo na pag maganda yung homily, yung tipong tatamaan ka. i really liked that homily about not to be like the Pharisees..sila yung mga tao who take God’s Word literally. We should not be like them, kasi sila basta nasusunod ang kasulatan, kahit walang pakialam sa kapwa e okay na…hindi dapat ganun di ba…we should see God in every person, so if we want to serve Him or make sacrifices for Him eh we should also do the same to our neighbors! Panalo! aheheh..

relate ko naman sa napanood namin..Under the Tuscan Sun.it was a nice movie…it’s all about being happy for others…because it is sometimes in being happy for others that we get happy too…

minsan kasi lagi na lang ako..ako ang iniisip natin..we neglect the importance of selfless actions…

we make wishes for ourselves and we get depressed when thy don’t granted, only to find out that what we were wishing for were granted to others..sometimes, to people close to you..and we get even more depressed…hay buhay

and so that was the important thing i learned today…i realized today…masaya ako pag masaya ang ibang tao..masaya kapag nakikita mo na masaya ang mga taong hindi mo nakikitang laging ngumingiti.

you get redeemed from all the world’s indifference, from the harsh realities of life, when you see other people redeemed from them too.

NOTHING MUCH

I feel lost..ewan basta lost.

Usapang porma namin ni Tatay:

Kewek (naka-yellow shirt, maong pants and black rubber shoes): "Tay, bagay ba yung yellow na shirt dito?"

Tatay: "Oo, ang yellow naman puwede kahit ano."

Kewek: (napa-isip…hala kelan pa naging universal ang yellow) "Nye..eh etong sapatos ko?"

Tatay: "Oo naman, ang black naman puwede din sa kahit ano!"

Haaayyy…as in. After all, ang kahit anong kulay pala ay puwede sa kahit ano…kaya lab na lab ko si tatay eh.

But no..lost pa rin ako.
