“To have a gentle and quiet spirit is to have a heart of faith,
a heart that trusts in God,
a spirit that has been quieted by His love and filled with His peace.
Not a heart that is striving and restless.”

Isn’t it good to know that even when we don’t love with a perfect love, he does? God always nourishes what is right. He always applauds what is right. He has never done wrong, led one person to do wrong, or rejoiced when anyone did wrong. For he is love, and love “does [...] 
Nakakamangha.
Sa iisang pagkakataon.
Naghalu-halo ang bawat kulay.
Isa-isang lalamunin ng kagandahan.
Marami.
Iba-iba.
Ngunit iisa.

You made me smile today.
Thank you for the sunset.
And the fountain. 
Haha.
You’re so amazingly wonderful yet still very, very humble. You care not only to the people you’re friends with but to every one you meet. A real gentleman.
You have the heart of service. A heart that is so sincere. :)
God bless you! 
Let me thank You not just because of the great things that You give.
But let me thank You because of who You are.
With or without, I will thank You.
Let me praise You not just for all the mighty things that You do.
But let me praise You for who You are.
Win or lose, I will praise [...] 
What Feona Means
You are loving, compassionate, and ruled by your feelings.You are able to be a foundation for other people… but you still know how to have fun.
Sometimes your emotions weigh you down, but you generally feel free from them.You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone.
You work hard not to [...] 
I wish every night would be just like tonight.
Please don’t let me forget.
Let’s do this again. :)
I love you, guys. 
She’s so adorably cute. Plus she sang my favorite song. I just soooo love her.
Aw. *cant’ help crying* :) 
I miss being a child. Having no worries, no obligations; just pure bliss with a sweet pinch of wildness. I would wander off to places as far as my mind could imagine; and let out every single breath of excitement without having to understand the feelings that are being uncovered. My world has no limits.
*sigh* [...]

After work.
Exchange of text messages with a friend.
Friend: Im on my way home.
Feona: Me too. Grabe, you won’t believe what just happened. Because of the heavy rain and traffic, we decided to walk our way to the LRT station. So kwentuhan at tawanan habang naglalakad. Enjoy naman kami e. Only to find out na [...]

You gain some things, while you lose some other things.
Guess that’s how it works.
You just can’t have everything.

A friend once told me that if you get lost on your way and don’t know where to go, just look back at the trail that you left behind. It will lead you to the path that God has prepared for you. The trail will be your guide in finding your way.
Thanks Kuya Drew. :)

I’ve been through a lot this summer. As in a lot. Naranasan mo na bang maging mababaw? Mababaw sa lahat? Sa luha at tawa? Ako oo. Naranasan ko na lahat ng yun just this summer. Ibig kong sabihin ng lahat, lahat talaga. Walang kulang.
Imagine me going through everything, from extreme sadness to extreme happiness, [...] 
Ano ba talaga?
Nahihilo na ako sa’yo.
Please make up your mind.
Please.

No matter how far we are from each other,
It helps to think that we are underneath the same big sky.
Someday, somewhere we’ll find one another.
Someday, somewhere we’ll be together.

You can also bring your friends.
See you there! 
Here’s my list. Thanks for the tag, Ate Lovelle. :)
The rules are easy, just post 10 things that recently made you happy! Then tag 10 people and force them to post this on their blogs.
1. Scrapbooking at the Family Life Center.
2. Holiday (which means rest). :)
3. Miming dito sa bahay na tulog ng tulog.

Ngayong araw sa ensayo, ramdam ng bawat isa ang bigat sa kapaligiran. Pagod na rin siguro dahil sa paghahabol sa kani-kaniyang gawain. Marami, sabay-sabay, patung-patong na gawain. Ramdam na ramdam ang lungkot. May ibang namumugto pa ang mga mata. May iba namang nagtatago sa likod ng mga ngiti. Pero hindi makakaila ang tunay na nararamdaman.
Ang bigat. Hindi ko na kayang pigilin. [...] 
Tinitingala ko ang mga taong may paninindigan.
Kahit na naiipit na sila sa sitwasyon,
Kahit na kailangan nilang mag sakripisyo
Para lang sa paninindigan na iyon.
Alam kong mahirap.
Masakit pa nga paminsan.
Pero hindi pa rin nagpapatalo sa mga pagsubok.
Mas nakakabilib.
Hansel, salamat sa pagiging matatag.
Hindi ko alam kung paano makakatulong
Kundi sa pamamagitan ng panalangin.
Salamat sa pag sakripisyo para sa akin.
Kaya [...] 
Every day I face new challenges.
But because of God, I believe.
Because of Him, I live.
It is only by His grace that I can.
No doubt about it.

God surprised me the other night.
With His moon shining and smiling so bright.
A perfect reminder of His promise.
That I will always be His.
Pagkatapos kong [...] 
Wala na. Ubos na. 
…but the waiting
makes the realization of our longings
all the more sweeter.
:) 
How?
This has always been my question.
I got a number of suggestions and advices.
But it all boils down to one thing - patience.
Patience.
It is not just about waiting for the right person, for the right time.
But more importantly, it’s about keeping a good attitude while waiting.
That’s the hard part.
To just be still while waiting.
We are so used in taking control of our [...] 
I don’t usually crave for chocolate.
Actually, I’m not a fan of it.
It’s too sweet for my tastebuds.
And can also cause sore throat. Hehe.
I don’t understand why.
But it’s been almost a week now.
And I’m still craving.
Really craving for chocolate.
Just finished my first pack.
Yummy. 
It happened.
Two Sundays ago.
I didn’t expect it.
Not that time.
*grin*
It was perfect.
The cool wind carried it.
The people heard it.
I felt it.
*wink*
Singing.
I love it.
No turning back.
Only moving forward.

Finally.
My heart.
My dream.
Found.

This is too much. It’s not healthy anymore.
Focus, focus.
No more excuses. 
I can’t live with only 36 pesos a day. Not enough.
Can you? 
I’ll hide beneath the clouds
And whisper to the evening stars
They tell me love is just a dream away
I’ll dream away
So let the moon
Shine softly on the boy I long to see
And maybe when he dreams
He’ll dream of me 
I have this thing on my left arm. It looks weird. Also feels weird.
I don’t like it. It’s hurting me.
My right arm, on the other hand, also feels weird.
It seems heavier than usual. But I’m liking it.
Ok, I’m weird. 
…sooner than expected.

Kakantahan kita ng lahat ng kantang gusto mo,
kung yun ang makakapagpasaya uli sa’yo.
Tutugtugan kita ng lahat ng kaya ko
kahit pa yung mga mahihirap na tinuro mo,
Kung yun ang makakapagpalabas sa iyong mga ngiti
at makakapagpabalik sa panahong gaya ng dati.

“To love at all is to be vulnerable.
Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken.
If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one,
not even to an animal.
Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements;
lock it up safe in [...] 
I saw and copied this from Ate Jam’s site. I love my year 2007. A lot of good and not-so-good things happened. And this is a nice way to “recognize the people/events/stuff that made my 2007 worth remembering.”

I cried so much while watching this video.
“I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
Vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I’m calling
Lord You catch me when I’m falling
And You’ve told me who I am
I am Yours.”

“And so I arrived at this conclusion…
Living becomes so much more meaningful when you don’t make it about you.”

Hindi ko alam kung paano i-describe ang year 2007 ko. Ang dami kasing nangyari e, mga pangyayaring hindi inaasahan. Pero dahil na rin sa mga pangyayaring ito kaya naging special ang taon ko. This year tinuruan ako ni Lord…
Maging totoong tao. Yung masaktan at bumangon uli. Takot kasi akong masaktan e. Ayoko rin ng nakakasakit. Kaya [...] 
Failure is one of my greatest fears.
But this video helped me change my attitude towards it.
“You can’t have any successes unless you can accept failure” - George Cukor I can find no words that can fully describe Him.
His greatness.
Love.
Nothing can compare.
Always overwhelming.
I am so blessed.
Can’t say no more.
Thank You. i don’t want this burden.
i want to forgive.
and yes, to forget.

YOU WERE THERE ALL ALONG
You told me long ago, one day I’ll come back home
But I turned my back and walked away from the One who loved me most
But like the seasons come and go like the river meets the sea
I finally [...] To my chamber recital! :-)
