We really are in a world where there is so much information around us, eh, that we only choose to absorb the ones which are most attractive to us - the one that catches our limited attention span..

 So let's make time for prayer and meditation. :) That is our sanctuary. ❤

You know what, God's mercy manifests in His desire to enter and love a chaotic, miserable, hopeless heart.

i just have this tendency to get depressed. No, it's not about not having a job. i think it boils down to my desire to do something meaningful, fruitful, helpful. And guess what - at 23, i honestly have achieved nothing much. i am pressured, deeply pressured by the world and its concerns and issues. Arrgh! And i just can't offer anything at all right now! No money, no talent, no will! i feel so indolent, as a matter of fact.. What to do? And then there's this guy that i like who likes me too, and who woos me as of the time being. But then there's this whole work, his-past-lover situation and issues relating to that that makes the whole wooing process much more, i hate to say it, complicated. i just believe that there's nothing complicated in love.. You just have to be honest about each other and then everything will be as clear as the clear sky! Well, so maybe our situation is not complicated after all. It's just hard, difficult, challenging, mind-occupying. Will he reciprocate my love? i do not know. There is no guarantee. But as Sarah Geronimo said, "...magmahal ka nang totoo, magmahal ka nang tama. Kung hindi niya suklian yun, sorry. At least, ako, naging totoo ako sa ‘yo, minahal kita nang totoo.” (Love truly, love rightly. If [he] won't reciprocate that, sorry. At least i had been true to you.) And so maybe those are just part of my whole [is it pathetic?] depression story. But i guess i'll have to be true to myself, find my core (as in Legend of the Guardians) and always be inclined to His will.

The best part of this story though, is that if, by God's amazing grace, i see this through, it'll be one of the most victorious stories of my life.. ever!!

This is a pressure gauge i have verified for use in our QA laboratory to determine the gas volume of beverages in a sealed container. Weeks before, we cannot use the gauge because the allowable tolerance for pressure reading is ±1.0 psi and before the gauge deviated from the actual value by 2.0 psi. But on the night i verified it, it actually gave out no correction from 0-60 psi. It was normal for that to happen because atmospheric/room conditions and other external factors tend to affect the pressure gauge in giving readings. What i would like to emphasize here is that, we may tend to overlook certain happenings/events in our life.. unknown to us that these are the ones that shape and mold us to become more like Jesus.. yeah? ;)

Helping Hands!

After resigning, i got really three good opportunities to help in different advocacies (well some indirectly)

First, the let hair go!

 

Though i wasn't able to donate my hair (because my sister made me realize that i could help better if it was longer), i was able to post the info on my Facebook wall. Guess i helped in the awareness part. Taaa!

Next, the BenCab's Activity book!

i ordered 5 books of the same kind. They didn't cost much. But in every book you buy, you get to donate two! And those books get to reach underprivileged kids throughout the country. Great right! Get to know more of CANVAS - Center for Art, New Ventures & Sustainable Development.

Third, Happy Animals Club in DAVAO CITY!! Can you believe it???!?!

i never imagined i would ever have the chance to adopt a dog in Davao.. i have only heard of this shelter recently, well thanks to my sister! Well, this is a to-do list! YEAH!

Something in the way the sun rises
Tells me of the God who gave me nights full of rest
Something about the way the leaves in trees dance
Tells me of the God of loving gentleness
Something about the way the morning breeze whispers in my ears
Tells me of God's heartwarming voice drowning out all the noise
Something about the air that i breathe
Tells me of the God who emptied His heart out for my life.

It's in the way the flowers bloom
It's in the beauty of the crescent moon
In the way a mother's song bids to sleep a child in her bosom
It's the little miracles along the way
That brings joy throughout the day
It's in the way our hearts beat in this music called life
That magnifies the power of our God on high!

Cause there's something about the way the sun rises
Something about the way the leaves dance
Something about the way the morning breeze whispers in my ears
That tells me God is near, He is here [inside my heart].

Influenced by the Beatles song: Something.
My poem actually sounds like a grade school child's poem.. but i'll get better. Cheeese!

i'm pretty much #lost

Right now, i am pretty much in the middle of nowhere. There is literally nowhere to go. i am applying for jobs but i feel like there is somewhere i need to go that i cannot go to.. geee.. :( i hope i am just being negative so can still do something about this. Hum hum... :(

#WakeyMeUp

Composers, thanks dudies! ;)

It's a milestone, i have to admit.

Tickets!

Each bus ride were as unique as the numbers of these tickets i have with me. i will truly, truly treasure every adventure.

Every day i have spent working in Coca-cola was a sweet surprise from the Lord!
Gosh! i can't believe i became so attached to the people i worked with and to the workload itself. Haha!

P.S. More to tell soon! <3 p="">
