The Part Where I Stumbled Down

As humans we all have our fair share of ups and downs. We literally gave up when we feel like nothing is going our way. We never used our energies to find what are the answers to the questions we once asked. Humans are not perfect beings. They are created to learn the things to live by.

When we died down, our utmost questions are asking ourselves "why me?", or "am I the only person involved?". We never thought that there are people who have suffered more that what you have in your life. Selfish in anyways but we are bound by our links to the real world.

Why cant we asked ourselves to thank the people who have helped us went through the things we needed to survive. Life itself is a gift that we are required to take care of and balance the realistic and unrealistic views of the modern world. Giving up when you stumble down is like swallowing the defeat that you might have won if you never closed your doors.

Keep on fighting for your survival in life! You are not alone, there are people who are right behind you and who will look after you no matter how bad the situation is.

Alone In Christmas

Christmas is one of the biggest holiday season of the year. We celebrated this with families and kids would love to enjoy the opening of their gifts. People from all over the world give life to the lifeless, share blessings to the underpriviledged, embraces the miserable and comforts the people who lost their loved ones.

There are cases people needs to be alone on Christmas day and there are also people who doesnt have any choice at all to be away. The head of the family is away to give the basic needs of the family he left. Working hard to the point that they never realized life is slowly fading. Children are away for Christmas because of the work they had to help out the family and trying to do their ways to make ends meet. A woman is alone on this day because it is a way of healing a wounded heart. She needs to find herself to start a new life and gain what she had lost. A man is trying to find comfort and solace on this day so he can decide on the areas where he can find his true happiness. We chose to be alone because we needed space to think and time to decide or we dont have the luxury of choices to be with people.

Alone in Christmas doesnt mean negative. Somehow it would simply mean that life itself is helping us to grow. It could be that the time being alone is a way of leeting you know to reflect on the times you had spent your life. If you are alone you dont have to nag about why it has to happen to you but looking at the bright side you can do things others can't. Be thankful because life is ahead of you and do the errands that would bring happiness to others.

In God's Time

Do you know why God never wears a watch?

We always thought that God is slow in answering,

He doesn't have any human calendars at all,

Gods sees with eternal eyes that no one could,

He has a timetable for everything,

He gives answers according to his plans as scheduled.

If you feel like He's running late,

Never get impatient because He wanted you to be strong,

Wait for the Lord's timing in everything.

Being in Control of your Life

How can we become strong as we mature?

We enjoy spending a weekend vacation on the beach,
Loving the idea of working late on an interesting project,
So happy to have the day in bed with a good book,
Deciding on taking computer studies,
Or simply be with a person who is special.

Mature means learning not to be in need of a person?
Or just making life itself meaningful;
But learning to live with a person because you want to be with them.
Is being married helpful for a persons growth?
What is on the other end fro you to be aware?

Being in Control simply means,
Loving the person inside in you,
Respecting the virtues built by others,
Liking the gifts that is shared to you,
Taking advantage of the beautiful we live in,
Most especially creating a life without regrets.

Saving Mr. Right

A good and promising job,
You served in your church.
Prayed for a Prince,
Dedicated your life to serving God,
Then you decided to take matters into your own hands,
An active search for a mate starts,Someone who almost fit the bill.

Almost....

Somehow, it just feels there is a missing part;
Character - a few rusty spots but NOBODY is PERFECT;
Maybe your standards are way too high,
God might wanted this person for you to grow;
HE never fails to answer our prayers,
No matter how impossible things are.


Think...


Is it harder to grow when you are attached to someone?
Or is it more difficult learning to live with somebody else?

Do you really think there is only one perfect mate?


Do you really think there is only one perfect mate?

How can you be certain to find them?

And if you find them, are they really the one for you...

Or do you only think they are?
What if the person you're meant to be with never appears?
Or she does, but you're too distracted to notice?
                   
If you learn to pay attention...Then, let's say...

God puts two people on earth and they are lucky enough to find one another...

But...one of them gets hit by lightning,

Well, then what?...Is that it?...
                
Or perchance you meet someone new and marry again,
                   
Is that the lady you should be with?...Or was it the first?...

When the two of them are side by side, 

Were they both the one for you...

And you just met the first one first?
                  
Or is the second one supposed to be first?
                  
And is everything just chance, or are some things meant to be?
               
We cannot leave everything to fate, 

Sometimes we must give each other a hand...

from the movie EVERAFTER (1998 )





   
                




Single Blessedness

What Does Being Single Means

People from all walks of life would thinks and asks why a person chose being single and detached.

Does it mean you are free to LOVE again but are you going to be BROKEN over and over again?

We have dreamed of how we could LIVE our LIFE to the fullest,

INTUITIONS where you have pictured a HAPPY family and a PERFECT married life,

We have come to a point where the INKS of our PENS have run out dry just to list what we LOOK for,

The PEOPLE around you had been BLESSED with families,

A HOUSE that became a HOME when shared with your fun loving children,

HERE you are still SINGLE and wondered what TO DO in LIFE,

Time PASSES with all the PRAYERS still it didn't come along at ALL and nothing HAPPENED.

From a young persons point of view Single could mean a SPACE to GROW,

A wounded heart it could be that you are TRYING to LIVE by yourself,

It also means FREEDOM and enjoying to CONTROL your life,

With the gifts of LIFE, LOVE, and HAPPINESS single means a INCOMPARABLE,

There is always SEASONS for EVERYTHING and a TIME to every PURPOSE in GOD's time.


True Meaning of Christmas

Christmas is in the air! I had come to think of what was the essence of having the Christmas spirit this season; we always give gifts and share meals (noche buena) with families and friends, however what about the homeless and the ill, the broke and the lonely?

I had been fortunate enough to have celebrated Christmas with my beloved families and friends. When I grew older and look at life of the unfortunate ones who came to see the beauty of earth but are not privileged enough I wondered and asks day by day, "why do they have to experience it?"; "why of all people they have to be in pain?" and "how can I help?".

I, then realized that no matter what your station in life is, if you find it in your heart on how to value the simplest ways of contentment there is always the gift of HAPPINESS. The Love that comes from the heart of a stranger if you are honest.

embarking on an unprepared journey that can set up for disastrous results

Physically and mentally,am i prepared to handle what may come? 

Emotionally and spiritually, am i ready? 

Will my mind and body be ready to cope with the challenges which will arise? 

Can i practice such virtues as love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, faithfulness, goodness and self-control? 

Will i be emotionally and spiritually ready to embrace an unknown future? 

But the good news is, i can still prepare myself.. 

the success of my voyage will be determined by my regular and systematic preparation... 

AM I READY??? 

After a Serious Thought

Reminiscing the Times when...
The days and nights..
The hours ad minutes..
Where I always put a smile on my Face..
A face where it showed simplicity..
A simplicity that came to complications..

Those were the Times when..
I am so confident and secured..
The idea where things are reachable..
The change where it showed less..
Over and over it shows but blinded am I..
Then sadness covers..

This Times..
Nights where you spoke to non-living things..
Asking and begging for strength and patience..
Pillows and blankets are your only comfort..
The bed shows off the weakened spirit..
And the room is filled with unanswered questions..

The Times when..
Actions showed off detachment..
Words that made it feel so miserable..
Where you have nothing to grasp..
When holding on tight makes it so painful..
Wonders where and what had happened..

And the Times now..
Helpless am I when discarded by your attention..
Pitiful when taken for granted..
Trying to fit in even never wanted..
Reaching out to see if I am there..
And I still don't know how it came about..

Until the Times..
When words seemed dead..
And touch can never heal..
To close your eyes meant silence..
Drops of water become an outlet..
Kindly it feels so cold..

Over the Times..
Wondered if I ever cross your mind..
Once said Trust and things will be fine..
What had happen to the Times..
Where did it go..
Looking forward again to the Times..

life is just a string of random accidents and mistakes

Somehow I came to realize...
The world is full of people...
No matter how unhappy things are...
There are ways to blissfulness...

I wanna see things as pefect as it is...
But so afraid for the miserbale outcomes...
I wanna think of happy things like Peter does...
However sad thoughts prevails...

Spellbounded by the idea of being together...
Still images of smiles forever...
But what does it take to make it real...
Is there a price to pay for embracing the idea...

Does our existence have meaning and purpose...

"I cried because I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet."

Life is tough, but if you look closely enough, you'll find and infinite number of things to be grateful for. Even if the things that made you happy in the past are gone, there's so much more to appreciate still. The joy you derive from the world around you is the fuel that'll push you through the hardest of times, so pay attention to what you have and enjoy it for what it's worth. Spend time with friends and family who are supportive and positive. If no one is available, make new friends. And if there are no friends to be found, help others who are in greater need than you are. Sometimes when we feel like we can't better our own situations, we can find strength in bettering someone else's, and we can also gain perspective on our own lives. 

An Excerpt: I want to forget about you, but my heart says don't...I want to love you, but my head says wait...

We used to talk like there's no tomorrow...
But now,silence stands between us...

realizing that no matter how strong your love is...
no matter how you truly love a person,

if your heart gets tired,
everything changes,even if you don't want to...

compromise doesn't mean that you lose and someone else wins,
its just that you value your relationship more than your ego..

AND;

Every woman deserves a man..
who will look at her each day...
like she is the most amazing woman he's ever laid eyes on.

BUT;

sometimes the person we want the most..
is the person who always wants someone else..

sometimes, it breaks a heart to say goodbye..
but if its d only way to make things get better,
its easier to live life & walk alone,
than to carry baggages you cant own...

somehow a person has to learn not to go that extra mile for someone,
who is walking in the opposite direction...

You have to learn when to give up,
when to walk away,
Even if it hurts ...Especially if it hurts...

Giving up doesn't always mean you're weak,
sometimes it means you're strong enough to let go..

I'm going to let go now, even though it's hurts...
They say if you love somebody let them go,
if they come back then they are yours...

The thing is how long are you suppose to wait?:))
