Live and Fructify
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch,a smile,a kind word,a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring,..all of which have the potential to turn a life around..

...I'm still alive...
Life is like a treasure hunt. We keep searching for the answers to unlock the infinite mysteries, presented to us by life. We are always on a wild goose chase thinking we are nearing the key that will unravel the mystery and we end up with another puzzle on our hand. A few lucky ones find their way out of this giant maze of tricks and treats. The only way to beat life at its own game is begin in control of yourself and never give up on anything or anybody. Even if you lose, learn the lesson and move on. It is my experience that life follows us only if we follow this life motto, "When life gives you a hundred reasons to cry, show life that you have a thousand reasons to smile".

Forgiveness
I learned a lot and still learning the deep meaning of forgiveness itself. I related it to letting go of anger, bitterness and the desire for revenge. But somehow, as a human, it's really damn hard to say; i forgive you and mean it... and that is why, I always tied my tongue in any controversial situations or I might end up regretting every single hurtful words and actions that come across upon that situations. I remembered for the past few years, I learned patience and forgiveness do come along together.
I know that forgiveness wasn't cut and dried, that there might be recriminations and barbed remarks for some time to come. But live is to short to be filled with hatred.
p/s: To my aunt,.. I love you, and still love you!!! Despite all the hurtful acts and words you've poured in my family... Deep down in my heart, i prayed that soon you'll be a better person... and we can share all the good things that happen in our life as one big family... Amen

Enduring Love
I remembered years ago, while I was enjoying sipping my cup of hot chocolate in one of my fave coffee shop, I saw an older couple - a man with a cane and a white-haired women, walking hand in hand. It was a beautiful reminder that while our culture glorifies youthful romance, true love has many stages during our journey through life. Paul's great essay in 1 Corinthians 13 celebrates the depth & tenacity of the love that carries us beyond self-interest & mere affection. ( Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoice in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.)
When our commitments are tested in the fires of life, no matter what difficulties we face, may God grant us a greater experience of His enduring love and the grace to demonstrate it each day.

Obligations
What do we really owe the people we love? Do we owe them labor we would not otherwise choose to commit to? After all, if they truly loved us, would they honestly expect us to do something we didn't want to do? would the feel right, benefiting from those labors? would we feel better doing it if it had been our idea in the first place? If so, then who are we really doing it for? The good of the family ? Self- gratification? Maybe a little of both isn't so bad. But it would be much easier to figure out if guilt could be taken out of mix. Too often guilt blurs the line. Separating what does get done from what should be done...

Every single tear
I was browsing the Youtube yesterday, so lucky that I found such a wonderful song, the lyrics are so meaningful, and here it goes;
You feel insignificant, a whisper in the wind
Sometimes you think nobody knows your name
But there’s somebody watching over you
And HE knows everything you’re going through
He sees every single tear
He feels everything you’re feeling
He wants to hold you close and dry your eyes
Your heart is what He hears
When the world just hears you crying
No matter what the pain
He cares about every single tear
Overwhelmed by circumstances out of your control
Hope can be the hardest thing to find
When you’re like a heart without home
You don’t have to face this hurt alone
If God adorns the lilies in the field
And cares for every sparrow in the sky
How much more is He aware of your sorrow and despair
How much does He care about your life.
You feel insignificant, a whisper in the wind
Sometimes you think nobody knows your name
But there’s somebody watching over you
And HE knows everything you’re going through
He sees every single tear
He feels everything you’re feeling
He wants to hold you close and dry your eyes
Your heart is what He hears
When the world just hears you crying
No matter what the pain
He cares about every single tear
Overwhelmed by circumstances out of your control
Hope can be the hardest thing to find
When you’re like a heart without home
You don’t have to face this hurt alone
If God adorns the lilies in the field
And cares for every sparrow in the sky
How much more is He aware of your sorrow and despair
How much does He care about your life.
