I thank God for the difficulties that He throws my way. They remind me of how my family used to live and humbles me whenever I think of all the gains we received because of the works of our hands. My brother Yul takes metal scrap from the secluded places and decides whether to melt them for metallurgical projects or sell them in exchange for money. He may be tough inside but his heart for Jesus is amazing. I wish I could be like him. He has made lots of friends from almost all walks of life. He is very keen with his work. And I say that because recently when we asked one of our neighbors to install the padlock at home, he failed to keep it straight. It does not function properly and we have to sacrifice a lot just to maintain our relationship with that man's family. And yet for such a simple task as that, he failed to help. It is not selfish to ask God for wisdom and discernment. He said in His Word: Ask and you will receive. Seek and you shall find. Knock and the door will be opened. |
New-found words, not-so-important ideas, and the emotive trap. Sometimes you have to assert your right to protection. Sometimes when it feels cold and your mental health is breaking down, you should take the Fix Pill. I say stand for your right to leadership in your job. And wasn't it me who wrote the graduation speech that would inspire the next generation? Or have I lost connection or relatedness that I cannot make them understand? I wish I know. Because communication is vital for leadership to function with efficacy. On a Monday, I thank God I have the resources to regain control over my emotions. I went through my "therapy" and it feels good to be able to express myself once again. And by saying that, I do believe there is still more room to improve in this area of expressing. Example of issues that come to mind is censorship. I would be able to write more if I am ready. But now, it's enough for me to release ideas that are pestering the mind. I don't know if it's just the Solitude that I need or the ideas of people around me. I will for sure need the critical mind to free me of the kabutzies-trap. And I will also need the emotional resilience to stay positive about the future and to believe that tomorrow will be better. Again, an explosive, close to scandalous thing, this tomorrow, could be. |
Gratitude Journal. Some things I just would not want to miss when I think about the reasons for my gratefulness. First is the worship and praise songs that lift up my spirit. They remind me of part of myself that just wants to honor my creator and be a part of His revealed goodness to humanity. Like they say: We are the light of the world; We are a city on a hill. I am honored to be also given the responsibility to raise nieces and a nephew. While processing my let downs and depressing moments, I am able to regain the courage to speak and teach children, even just for a bit of time. I also am encouraged by their energy. They have this attracting force that draws you into their system and makes you want to tell them of your adventures in life. And children just can't lie. They reveal your inner child. For now, my thought goes out to my future self. I hope she gets protected and she deserves to tell her story. She still have dreams and may hope continue to push her towards her destiny. |
It's a Wednesday and I think it's just time to write this Gratitude Journal. I am lucky to have a job. I can always buy the food that I want. It is scanty to be in a corporate position these days. I thank God I am able to survive the pressure of performing at my best because the night job gets in the way of my "circadian cycle". I was diagnosed with having been affected by Hormonal Imbalance, I think. And I struggle to keep abreast with the competition. I can live with the mere 17k salary each month. But in my mind, it's like I need to walk the walk that my ancestors have tackled. I have the Alpha syndrome, or so I think that's what they call it. It's a refusal to accept that my generation is not the Greatest Generation. And I'm a believer in the revolutionary works of my batch. I'm done with my reflection and I still have so many people to thank for in this season. The nieces I have, I keep as teachers at home and at play. Their energy is contagious and their honesty reminds me of humility. |
That is a wonderful thankful list! |
Gratitude Journal Let me start by thanking the good Lord for all the supplication he sent for me to enjoy. He gave me my niece and their family to be with. I know there is no such thing as sacrifice when you are elated with the moments you spent with close friends. And they are not just family, they hold me close to their hearts especially at times when I break down from all the worries I keep in mind. I hope you understand. And for the food in our table, I feel renewed each time. I am lucky to be a guest to such wonderful family. I witness their expression of love towards each other and I delight in seeing their faces shine at the times when they show care and love to each other. New Zealand and all the opportunities that come with it are also in my mind. I heed the calling of You, Lord. But I hope this silence and mindful thinking will activate my spiritual ears to hear You in these times. For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you hope and a future. |
Tonight I want to live for dignity and emancipation. I wish there is somebody to talk to when it comes to work. How it can simply be reduced to one Can-Do Book I will have to read--and in it are the formula for success. But life hits hard and the mind is sometimes unprotected. It gets bombarded by distractions and temptations. Tonight I scream: Sympathy. I honor the mind for all its worth but what we put into it can be a potent and powerful weapon for its own destruction. Where are the people who sow wisdom? Let them be my guide. Where are the people who sing their heart's delight? Are there still true worshippers who worship God in spirit and in truth? Am I the needy person or have I become one? I badly need to hear from You, God. Be my Father. I have been very tired of my life. And the comparison trap has me begging for mercy. It has left me depressed and kind of lonely. Here in this moment, I ask for comfort from The Almighty. I face life in its subtleness and end up thinking how futile it is to continue living. Where's the hope I had been singing? Are there still friends that are open? Are there fellows that can enlighten? Or perhaps provide the needed encouragement? Mercy, mercy--have mercy. Sick begone and health is welcome. |
Recovering from Anxiety Insomnia There are many people that come to mind when thinking about all those who made it possible for me to somehow survive Anxiety Insomnia. I hope my words to express this heartfelt gratitude provide justice to the efforts of these people whose hearts I am indebted for. One of which is mom. Mom taught me the humility that comes when you choose to follow your heart. She laid down her life for the sake of the weak and the poor. She cooks the most sumptuous and healthy dishes that just satisfy the heart and open up the mind to tasteful pleasure. When I requested for my favorite fruits, she was willing to go the extra mile and purchase them for me. She is wise in understanding and kind in attitude. I realized how I took her for granted for so many years. In my silent night, I keep praying that she will feel my love. And I meant it when I kiss her goodbye. Or when I buy her: her wish for Christmas time. My recent encounters with hell, or so I call it, is nothing short of serious. My life of 35 years was almost ended when I turned to expired vitamins for comfort. I wanted to erase the thoughts that I was somehow taken advantage. I think I may just be reaping the fruit of my own selfish ambition and vain conceit. The Bible is clear when it tries to admonish us with these Proverb: Do not think in selfish ambition or vein conceit--but consider others better than yourselves so that you may do the will of Your Father in heaven. My current situation does not fully free me from the byproducts of this rare disease. But in each day I live I try to live with reverence to God and discipline to follow His precepts. |
