Ch-ch-ch-changes, changes!

This morning I got two messages from two of my Southern Girlfriends.

They were in the boarding area about to embark to their new lives.

I felt really sad that they are starting their brand-spanking days in a foreign land. Marga is still on her flight to US will Jode is now problably reunited with her mother and unpacking her things.

And I'm still here blogging away in my room.

Sometimes, we just need that "jumpstart" so we can start anew. Living in our comfort zone, sometimes we forget that there are a lot beyond our boundaries. And the sky's the limit! It does not mean changing the current environment, we just need something new so we may be able to discover other things besides what we currently do.

I read "Who Moved My Cheese" and it is about accepting changes in our lives. When your "cheese" is gone, it does not mean that someone took it. It may mean a lot of things, and it may mean that it you just devoured everything before you knew it's gone. It may mean that the cheese is probably somewhere you forgot to place. It may simply mean that it is just about time to find new cheese.

I am now living a new life with a lot of changes and I hope to make it better.

To my Southern Girlfriends

To Jode and Marga, who are very dear to me.

There's just too much in my heart that I can't seem to let out. It is very overwhelming that two people close to my heart have just decided to move on and pursue a dream. To move on to greener pasteurs. To explore new things. To discover themselves apart from the zone to where they have nurturing comfort. Good friends. Great company. Our home.

These two people, who have been with me in most of the times that we decide to go out. Pig out. Rant. Chismis! Cry. Share. Laugh! Hard laugh that is. Go home:( (and staying too long in front of our house with more rants! hahahaha!). Tawid sa mga nakakamatay na walang tawiran. Paghahabol ng bus. Ng shuttle. Paglalakad sa MOA. Taxi sa kahit san. Bus sa kahit san. Road trip sa weird na kotse:P

I will be missing going home with you. Although some things have changed. It still feels different going home without you (and I won't go home without you!! Maroon 5:P).

I will miss all the night outs with you. I will miss everything about you two. I love you my friends. Take care always.

Touched by God

I can barely remember the time when I have actually felt God touch me in mysterious ways.

I am not a self-righteous person, not even a religious one to claim such, but I have never felt more blessed than now. I have experienced an event that changed me from that moment on. I have come to accept Him and let Him be a part of me again.

I am ashamed on how I have come to know You again. That only in trying times we come back to you. But You accepted us, I know, because we can feel You near us.

I forget. I always forget. But in this time, I will never forget how God played a big part in my life and I am graciously thankful to God for accepting me again.

I am sorry that I still have doubts and fears. But I surrender everything to You, and I pray that you wash them away. My faith is in You. Our faith is in You, and we pray that You will continue to guide us in everything we do. That no matter what happens to us, may we realize that everything You give us has a purpose. To learn. and to know You better.

Thank you Lord for all heeded prayers. Thank you for teaching us lessons, that sometimes may hurt us. But I know that You only know what's best for us.

Thank you Lord for always, in all ways, working in our lives. I thank You how you have significantly changed our lives. And I am very much thankful that You have accepted us again and for entering in our lives together.

I am thrilled of living my life with You. I am excited on new plans, reinventing myself and pursuing my dreams. To travel the world. To try new things. To discover You more. And building our lives with You. I am excited that we are taking this journey with You. My journey. His journey. Our journey together.

I have come to realize that I am young and I have a lot of things to discover. There are so many things that I want to do. And I am living that life I want from this moment on. With a change that he's with me and You're with us. Carefree as a child, but wiser.. and with love, and in faith;)

We promise to keep You with us. And remember everything that we do is for Your glory.

A message that struck me the most in trial times:
When a problem leads you to a prayer... then it has served its purpose.
