Woooow. How Long Has It Been?

And yes, still with the same question... HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN -- SINCE I LAST WROTE HERE??? Na-miss ko 'to grabe. Many many many maaaaany things happened from my last blog post. Super happy, super sad, super elating, super depressing.

I now have the time to write again. Don't ask. I'm just glad I have the time to be here again.

Dear Blog, how can I forget that you take stress away? That you preserve happy thoughts for me? I guess I was just swallowed whole by the crazy whirl of events that I forgot about how good it is to write here. To share things with you. To share it to the world. I'm bad, huh? Sorry. Really sorry. Truthfully, I'm really happy I'm back to writing here. I'm back to sharing my life to you... to the world.

You know what I'm going through now. You know I need you more than ever. You know I need HIM more than anything else. Wooow. Woooow talaga yung mga nangyari this week. Wow lang talaga. Still speechless. Still in shock.

In spite of the tremors, I received so many words of encouragement from random people. Amazing. Amazing how He works His magic. And I mean --- AMAAAAAZING.

1. Pursue things that deliver. ♥ -- From the Facebook application God Wants You To Know.

On this day, God wants you to know ... that the world never delivers on its promises. Make more money and you'll be happier, get a bigger house and you'll feel satisfied, buy fancier clothes and people will admire you - the materialist's mantra. But there is always a bigger house, someone making more money and a new style that makes your expensive wardrobe obsolete. Pursue things that deliver: take care of each other, love one another and believe in God. These are things that deliver, and that's a promise.

2. Wisdom is oftentimes acquired when we stumble, not when we succeed. Our defeats leave us wiser than our triumphs. By faith, we live. By love, we serve. By patience, we understand. By trials, we gain wisdom. By sharing, we give joy. ♥ ♥ ♥ -- From Mom, texted by Tito Paco.

3. I wasn't created to fall. WOOOOW. WOW. WOW. ♥ -- From God Wants You To Know again.

On this day, God wants you to know ... that you weren't created to be a failure. Sure some things may not have worked out and there have been some disappointments. But all these things helped guide you in a direction that was meant for you. Your life has purpose and significance. Try to be patient if it isn't all crystal clear just yet. For now, just know that you weren't created to fail.

4. Your ANGEL Name is Micah. -- From another Facebook application What Is Your Angel Name?

MICAH: Angel of the Divine Plan - Watches over spiritual evolution and reveals the next steps of our path.

5. When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening and freeing your hand to receive something better. ♥ ♥ ♥ -- An email from my uncle, Tito Art.

See??? Seeeeee???? AMAAAAAZING TALAGA!

Hay. Trials, trials, trials. But I know I can get through this. I know I can because He will make a way. He will make a way where there seems to be no way. I firmly believe He will... He will.

And yes, it's a YDWTL weekend again. I will see You, Lord. I will be with You.

Basta Ikaw kakayanin ko. Basta Ikaw titiisin ko. Basta Ikaw maniniwala ako. Basta Ikaw maninindigan ako. Basta Ikaw kahit ano pa yan.

BASTA IKAW.
