In life, there are only three basic things that we must do: Learn, Laugh, Love. Everything else, is unnecessary.

Water Refill

So..my days are spinning very fast, I hardly have enough time to catch my breath and think twice about things..mostly, mundane things. And on a weekend--yes, on a blessed Sunday, I have to sit down and work on my reports. How unfortunate, actually. I try to pacify myself by thinking, "This is an act of care for the children". Somehow, it gives me enough complacency to stay seated on my bed with this pile of papers. Still, I haven't started on any of it. And I reckon, I'm not gonna finish anything even if I stay up the whole evening.

Clearly, everyone deserves a break. Perhaps, this urge to defer my work on a day where I'm supposed to be resting, is actually an act of sanity. That's why although I am utterly disappointed with my irresponsibility, I could at least forgive myself and take a breather. After all, how can you fill other's cup if you have ran out of water as well?

Still..I'm thankful. I'm thankful that God has blessed me with this job, even though I'm having a hard time keeping up with the responsibility and stress that it entails. Because at the end of the day, I know that with my every hard work, I'm helping someone else's life. 

God guide me, and fill me with more love to share and wisdom to impart.

Princess

I am feeling overwhelmed with all these studying and working...that I often find myself needing to catch my breath. And my confusion regarding my religion is adding up to my stress...

Anyhow, I still believe that God will help through this. He will guide me in all of my undertakings.I cannot share much as I don't have much time to write. But I would like to end this with a beautiful quote:

"I am a PRINCESS not because I have a prince; but because my Father is a KING."

Letter to Self: Balance

I am proud of you for having surpassed the past difficult month. Truly, you are getting wiser and stroonger each day. Do not doubt your capabilities; God has given you talents, use it to fulfill your goals which includes doing good for others. 

I know that you are currently confused about your religious orientation. Keep on searching, never give up until you find what He desires for you. God will enlighten you soon, for as long as you keep your mind open and pure. 

Do not be too hard on yourself though; learn to strike a balance between being "on-the-go" and relaxation. Do not worry to much. Although you need to be in control of most things, leave the rest for prayer.

Continue being strong my dear. Surf among the waves, never let yourself be drowned into the water. God will guide you, just keep your heart open.

- a letter to myself for September 2012.

I'm really busy at work and school these days but I want to give myself a breather. Thus, I decided I would like to take up a new hobby. Hmmmm.......
