Our background and circumstances may influence who we are, but we are responsible for who we become. We may screw up making choices but life is not about it, it is what steps we take to rectify them.

A NOTE TO SELF: Be calm. Seek your center, that's where your strength is. Breathe. When you inhale, you are charged with energy. When you exhale, you rid your body of tensions; relax. Don't think. Obey your instinct. ~ Isabelle Allande|City of The Beast

HAVE COURAGE AND BE GRATEFUL, ALWAYS... ^__^.

Inner Peace

August 9, 2017. 8:30 P.M. Tuesday. I think I have completely accepted everything that has happened. Last Saturday after work, I went to Quiapo Church. It is my favorite destination ever since I got here in this big city. I enjoy being there, kneeling to pray and sitting for 30minutes to an hour to meditate. All I could say to Him from the bottom of my heart was a happy and echoing ‘’Thank You’’. I had so much to thank about that I didn’t know where to start. He restored my inner peace. And I trust Him more than I ever did before.

I may have been deeply hurt but I still have a roof on me. I can pay my rent. I wake up every day on a comfortable bed and pillows I bought from my own pocket. With my humble possessions in my room, I am proud of myself. My room is not grand but it’s not messy. My family is far from being perfect but they make me complete. They are well and not struggling and that gives me peace. I have friends I can reach out in times of need. I may have stopped my job search but I am happy I am still working. My work became a perfect getaway. I’m actually on my 10th year now. I finally get to volunteer and spend time to those who need companionship the most. Those kids – they make me meek. Thank you kids! I can climb mountains and come back stronger each time. I get to love my body more. I finally came out from a fog of depression. I am slowly establishing my new routine. Thank you for always being my Light, Lord. Thank you for the courage You have bestowed on me. I have a lot to be really grateful about, to be grateful to You. I am simply blown away by You. I am as always blown away by You. Thank you, Lord. I cannot do all these things without You. You are always the best – always the greatest!
