WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD

You smell like that flower. The flower I’ve seen in my dream inside the forest full of wooden trees, so tall and thin.

That flower, so tiny. Yet the fragrance it produced was so captivating, powerful.

The fragrance of that flower brings healing to everyone; healing to the body, soul and spirit..

The day I got to know you, I remember my dream. You are that flower. From one bud, now you bloomed into a countless buds, bloomery flowers, and your fragrance is much greater than before. You’ve became a great source of healing..

What a wonderful world full of flowers.

THE PRINCESS GOES OUT

Once upon a time, in the Kingdom of Northern Veggie Land, there was a girl born with a shy soul and a silent spirit..

Possessing a palmoplantar tears, she doesn’t know how to handle her life with power and confidence. Instead, she developed a series of doubt in herself. To hand her palm up for a shake hand greeting was such a huge fear for her. Facing King’s Queen’s, Prince and Princesses only create tons of anxiety to her. Because of that, she grow into an introvert and finding refuge through reading and writing..

Entering in her garden room at the top of the palace ignites her passion to write poetry and letters about faith, hope and love. Surrounded by yellow sunflowers, encircled by tiny tinkerbells, her day becomes an enchanted one..

One day, on a summer fairy festive, she encouraged her heart and hardly pushed herself to be strong. So she goes out of her garden room with a bouquet of sunflowers in her sweety palms, and together with her friends – twinkies and bflies, those cuties ushers her to a place full of fairies to began a social life filled with wind of wonders..

She goes out and she discovered the real World..

She goes out and discovered the real Love..

ROCK YOUR WORLD

You must gonna rock your world everyday with goal’s that will define your happiness and self-worth. If you’re an introvert, go out and proclaim that your excitement to face challenges and overcome fears and worries is already overwhelming!

To you who want to stop dreaming, to you who want to discontinue what you have started, to you who want to quit running and want to accept that the trophy is not for you, knowwat? It’s time to love yourself and find joy in hardships and sufferings and overcome it! Dance in the music! Sing in the melody of a guitar! Find grace in His Word! Express your love to the one you admire! Write your name in the sand! Create poetry! Play with your sweats! Enjoy your morning under the sun! Perspire more! Hug the child! Treasure every moment under the light of the moon and the stars! Drop bread on the beggar’s hand! Get wet under the thousand raindrops! And find the meaning of your life behind the Cross. You can do it. And everything will become alright. Promise..

Goodbye Manila for a while and let me discover myself that I may renew the greatness that’s in me.

Goodbye Manila for a while and let me reflect Thy Word that I may earn His trust again.

Goodbye Manila for a while and let me find the hope in human’s heart that I may believe in the power of love again.

I WANT YOU TO KNOW

I want you to know that the moment I saw you, the sun and the clouds cannot contain the heat of my admiration and water of longing to touch every part of your heart so you may look at me and feel the same way, too.

I want you to know that the day we got to know each other, it starts that the moon and the stars cannot contain the coldness of my hands because of the happiness I felt evey night I saw your eyes written in the sky and your smile making itself to constellation.

I want you to know that the moment our friendship started to create a possible daily communication, the ocean and the waves began thinking how to still my love for you from its uncontrollable splashing on the sand.

I want you to know that the hour I’m planning to introduce my feelings for you, the rain and its lightning cannot stop my heart beat from creating a storm and loud thunderstorms to encourage me to say it to you without fear.

I want you to know that the more the nearer and closer the date of my love confession to you, the night can’t stop itself to plead the day to rise up early, to beat the clock, to break the law of the time.

I want you to know that this is the day of my confession. My eyes cannot stop her tears from falling while seeing you confessing your love to my friend.

HE TOUCHED ME

He felt our inner turmoil and outer sunshine;

He felt the breath of our inhalation and the air of our exhalation;

He felt our injured muscle tissue and achy-breaky heart;

He sees our Yin and Yang and Meridians trouble-defect.

He loves to embrace everything about us.

And He loves to touch it and change it – from bad to good –

From poor to perfect health.

FOREVER GRATEFUL

FOREVER GRATEFUL

This is my day. Everything that happens to me a year ago was a li’l bit closer to a brand new life, a li’l bit closer to a dream I’m longing to achieve. I do not pity myself but all blessing, favor, provision, privilege, opportunity that He allowed me to experience is the effect of His great faithfulness. Am I worthy for that? No. I’m just an ordinary daughter expecting a love from my Creator King. I have nothing to boast. I live under the grace and mercy from above. Every failure is a result of disobedience. Lack of many things is a consequence of unfaithfulness. But everything happens for a reason and every reason has its new beginning.

To you whom I cause heartbreak, I asked forgiveness. To you whom I ignored, I asked reconciliation. To you who accepted my love, I will love you more. To you who make friendship with me, I’m really grateful. To you who take time to understand not only my outside world but also my inner world and all its flaws and imperfections, I want to hug you right now and offer a song of thanks. To my family who gave me a home sweet home, I’ll continue to fight for you. And lastly, to my Creator King, this li’l fire within me will not remain little. In the days to come, it will cause heat wave that will consume all negative forces within me. I promise I’ll continue to run. Cross my heart.

FLY AND CONQUER

On eagle’s wings

On angel’s wings

Yes I will fly

And I will soar!

All my dreams,

And all my goals

I let Him drive!

I let Him kiss!

And fly with Him!

On mountain’s peak,

On heaven’s wide

Yes I will dance,

And I will sing!

All my tears,

And all my fears

I let Him wipe!

I let Him crash

And conquer it!

BE MY INSPIRATION

You are great.

Believe me, you are.

Your weakness made you strong and mighty;

Your broken past made you alive and well;

Your shortcomings made you an overcomer and a winner.

Run fast as the tick-tack of the clock’s longest hand.

I’m waiting for you to inspire me.

EVERYDAY IS A STRUGGLE

Everyday is a battle between a trying-to-be-strong me vs full-of-negativity me. Everyday I search for motivation within me, to get up and start my day. Everyday I wish I could turn back the old me, a cheerful and stronger version of me, a high performer me. Everyday I feel disappointed on how thoughts are running thru my mind, how I evaluate myself and how I respond with the things happening around me. Everyday is a constant reminder that I am at my lowest, that failure has kicked in, starting to eat and dominate my life. Yes, everyday I overthink things. And overthinking kills.

Everyday I question myself, “When this will end? When will I get better? Why am I suddenly a POORformer? Why can’t I cope with the demands of my work? Why am I always doubting myself? How to trust myself again? How to regain myself?”

As these negative bubbles are popping on my mind, still, there’s a small voice of hope reaching me.

Everyday I receive love. Everyday I have family and friends who are not getting tired of listening to my redundant rants and stories. Everyday there are people who cares about me. Everyday there are these people who finds time and effort to pop a single message asking how am I doing. Everyday there are people who reminds me that I can still get up and rebuild my life. Lastly, everyday the Holy Spirit gives me strength to push thru and get thru life’s obstacles.

Everyday is tiring. But these people are not getting tired of me. So who I am to give up? Still, everyday is a blessing. I am clinging to this hope that things will get better. Life continues..
