Exalted

Sometimes, we reach a point where everything is just how we want things to be.

When you’re at this point, be thankful. Celebrate every moment. Live every day. Glorify the Lord in the best way you know how. Say your prayers of thanks.

These moments won’t always last. But there is always something greater.

It is not true what they say that when you’re already there, there is no other way to go but down. The truth is, when you reach the peak of everything you’ve aimed for, when you’re already at the top, there is STILL another way up. You carve a way up. You defy expectations. You empower yourself.

Thank you, Lord, for everything you have blessed me with. I always ask for more not because I am never satisfied but because I know you can give more and you always do. It is because I have faith that you only give what is good. I know your plans are to prosper me. I know you will take me there.

The third day of January has been a rainy one.

For someone who does not like rain, or even just listening to the sound of it, this day is not a perfect one. However, I slept really well today, so I don’t think I have a right to complain.

I just don’t like it when it rains. I don’t know what it is about the rain that gets me every time. I always get restless when rains starts to pitter-patter on the rooftop. It makes me feel like the world is about to end. I guess I’ve always pictured the end of the world to be stormy, dark, and loud, with people, cars and animals screaming out loud.

Hey! It’s too early in the year to be this negative, you know.

Today is also the birthday of my aunt. I don’t know how old she is today. However, as I’ve always believed in, age does not come in years. Instead, it comes from life experiences, laughter, and tears. You are only as old as how you feel. I’m 28 years old, and I’ll be 29 this year. However, I’ll always be 26, trapped somewhere between accepting maturity and staying young to enjoy stupid mistakes.

Welcome

The first of March. It feels like I was just celebrating the new year a week ago. I can’t believe we’re two months into 2011 now.

I want to take this time to reflect on what has happened in my life lately. It saddens me to think that nothing BIG has happened to me, so far. A few years ago, I would already be looking for the happening instead of just waiting for it. But that was then. I have learned to just sit by the sidelines and let the people have their moment.

I have had a wonderful life. I am not contented, but I am more than thankful. I’ve been given more than I actually deserve, and I am not complaining.

I don’t feel that 2011 is the year when some WONDERFUL and BIG will happen to me. But what I do feel is that 2011 will be stable, blessed, and magnificent.

Two months have passed since the new year came, but I can say that mine is just starting. xoxo
