I cant help but be sad about losing phone twice in two weeks.  Really.  I cant help but feel sad about knowing bad things really do happen, and people are responsible for them.

Last night I cried.  I cried because I was sad but today I am shaking the dust.

God is graceful and He has been giving me really really good days - some are even great, and thats where I will focus. I am zooming in on the good stuff.

Breathing In.  Breathing Out.  Shaking it off.

iSuper love this!

Walk into it, breathe it in, let is crash through the halls of your arms at the millions of years of millions of poets coursing like blood pumping and pushing making you live, shaking the dust.

So when the world knocks at your front door, clutch the knob and open on up, running forward into its widespread greeting arms with your hands before you, fingertips trembling though they may be.

BlogLove

i love David Bonifacio's blog.  I love love love it.  It encourages me to always "Go to God" and to value the truly important stuff in life.

I got this from him.

You step up to the plate, you take a deep breath, you swing, and you hope you hit a home run. If it doesn’t work, you get another chance up at bat. If you don’t get another chance, there will be other ball games.

The Message

was checking tumblr just now and I saw this in my dashboard.  It made me smile.

“Your old life is dead. Your new life, which is your real life—even though invisible to spectators—is with Christ in God. He is your life. When Christ (your real life, remember) shows up again on this earth, you’ll show up, too—the real you, the glorious you. Meanwhile, be content with obscurity, like Christ.”


- Colossians 3:3-4 (The Message)

Closing cycles

Not because of pride, incapacity or arrogance, but simply because that no longer fits your life. Shut the door, change the record, clean the house, shake off the dust. Stop being who you were, and change into who you are.

Gone is the Fear

It is finally happening.  It feels kind of surreal. But I am not scared.  Last week I was, but today, i sat quietly and thought about it.  The fear is gone.

I have yet to sort all these things inside me, but one thing is for sure.  The fear is gone.

i did it.

today i did.

I dream

I dream of many many things.

I dream of yellow chucks, pink prada canvas tote and a green sidekick.

I dream of matte nail polish in assorted colors.

I dream of Hopeful tatooed in my right wrist and Faithful in my left.

i dream of a dog.  I used to dream of a pug.  A black cute pug.  The dream now evolved to a huge dog.  A brown lab that answers to snickers.

I dream of new job. new friends. new life.

I dream of weekends packed with fulfilling activities.

I dream of habitat for humanities.

I dream of wonderful Sundays.

i dream of eiffel tower and new york city and going to Ellen De Generes Show with Clang and Z.

I dream of a better world.

I dream of meeting people - people in the future that will totally change my life.

I dream of a stronger heart.  a heart with no doubts and fears.

Psalm 23

Pastor Paolo said that our prayers become more powerful when we incorporate scriptures.  I have always been fascinated by prayers as a whole.  The fact that we are able to converse with the Lord is pretty amazing already, but making it more potent is just astonishing don't you think?

And so again after quite sometime, I opened my bible and read some.  I found Psalm 23 and loved it.

1 The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
       he leads me beside quiet waters,

 3 he restores my soul.
       He guides me in paths of righteousness
       for his name's sake.

 4 Even though I walk
       through the valley of the shadow of death,
       I will fear no evil,
       for you are with me;
       your rod and your staff,
       they comfort me.

 5 You prepare a table before me
       in the presence of my enemies.
       You anoint my head with oil;
       my cup overflows.

 6 Surely goodness and love will follow me
       all the days of my life,
       and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
       forever.

thumbs up to God for making things happen.

Awesome. Awesome
