God granted my heart's desire! He is so good!

I did my part of the job so i can go to Madrid. His will be done for me.

When we believe we are enough, we stop screaming and start listening, we're kinder and gentler to the people around us, and we're kinder and gentler to ourselves.

I believe that I'm enough.

"I'm just so grateful, because to feel this vulnerable means I'm alive."

am moved to practice gratitude and joy in moments of terror, when i wonder, "Can I love you this much? Can I believe in this this passionately? Can I be this fierce about this?".

am letting myself be seen, deeply seen, vulnerably seen; to love with my whole hearts, even though there's no guarantee --

"You know what? You're imperfect, and you're wired for struggle, but you are worthy of love and belonging."

I am not as bad as people think I am. In my heart, I have good intentions. Just feel sorry people have different way of looking at things.

Discovering myself in the eyes of my bro and sis. Tough and hurting, but i know this will make me a much better person.

Bird-chirping weather here. woke up feeling a vacuum inside me. been feeling this the past days. waiting can be so hard. but, the singing birds up me a lot.

If it's better this way, let the hurts just go away easily. Let both of us continue to love others.

I made the decision and it has to be done. I did it for clarity and definition. God will do the rest. Heal us or make things possible for us to be together.

In deep quandary. Did i just rejected the person i like so much? Faith or relationship? can i separate the two?

Grateful for this life!

Being ill while travelling is not a pleasant thing to experience. But, everything changed when there were people who offered their time & energy to help me. Feelin grateful to the aviation security officers & the airline ground crew 4 everything.

Back to work and grateful for it. after the holidays, it is a struggle to get back to the routine of working, but i feel so grateful and blessed i was early and eager to start my first work day of the year.

My work week ended today, me, being the student and my students as my teachers. Learned a lot from them today. Feel proud i have them as my students.

Feeling loved and cared for, let me flow it back to the person who made me so.

Got in touch with a friend who needed me this trying times of her life. Feels good to be around and share her experience.

Worried about my health, but have seen the doctor yesterday. Not a big deal, she said. I trust her, but this momentary confrontation with not being healthy and no one to take care of me creates a certain threat. I trust God. He'll take care of me.

Christmasey Sunday evening. Thinking how i will spend the season differently and meaningfully. Travel somewhere i haven't been to or home with family? I just want it to be different this time.

It's a contemplative Sunday evening. Wondering about things and events in my life. Trying to know what they're telling me. Some are beyond my grasp & am letting it take me slowly. Grateful for everything.

Today, i acknowledge my humanness. I have needs & i own it. It's part of who i am & i should not shun away from it. I offer it all to my creator & as i am inadequate in answering these needs, may His grace grant me contentment & liberation.

A blissful sunday tho there's an impending storm. It's sunny! & i am glad I am inching my way to finishing my work.

My cuz asked me what i like about sundown and I said, " I belong to the sun!" "its sight overwhelms me & i forget everything around me. it's a meditation. i become too aware of myself & the rest of the world does not matter. Just me & my creator."

Had the zest to start my day this morning. Happily went through my day's tasks. Felt drained after the eventful day. Regaining my energies & can;t wait to spread my body on my bed.

Proud of myself. Have been eating right & healthy.

Still riding the train. It's been three weeks now. Doing Great!!!

it's my second week to ride the train. it is not so hard to do it. so proud of myself.

lovin' dusk in the city, never did so before (only experience it in the province). daytime, i belonged to the world; later tonight to sleep and beyond. this dusk, i belong to only to me & my Creator. l

spent my Sunday in the kitchen. peace can be available in doing the dishes :)) u stand aware of ur body & mind & conscious of ur breathing; brings immediate joy & peace.

One thing at a time and i'll get there. Not even mindful about getting there, just glad i am doing something and get to finish it. Finish one paper now.
