Have You?

Do you have a dream?
Or are you just forced to have one and reach for it?
Are you willing to aim for it hard?
How about some who have a lot of dreams but does not have the means to reach for it?

Have you ever thought of being someone else?
If so, what if you become less of what you are today?
Will you take up that life?
The request still follows, though. It is not a life you are living today. Yes?
Unhappy about your old wardrobe and old set of accesories?
How about those that does not even have any?

Have you ever thought of living a life with everything?
How about for some who leave up their everything to have a life?
Have you ever thought of being someone?
What if you try to be yourself and be somebody?

Life is short and you have to live it.
Live it not just to breathe.
Live it to impress who you are and leave a mark.
Not a life wasted and just meant to live the end well.
Mistakes are the verging points of learning
but it should not be the determinant of your limits.
It is not how hard you hit the ground
but a matter of how you keep on standing up each time you fall.
Do hard. Break free from the mold you are expected of.
It is only a step away to start living a life worth living.
And when it may seem tough to begin,
always remember, the firsts are the hardest.
And all of a sudden, you’ll realize how far you have been from the start.

Pursue.
Though all may seem to go backwards.
Aim hard. Live life.
Pray and remain rooted to the Vine.
And you’ll see a life genuinely worth to be called one.

More Than Words

HE has been doing A LOT. I mean, literally. During the vacation period, I have been spending time knowing Him more, learning new lessons with the old stuff and encouraging myself to read books as much as I can, even making some advance reading on some of my academic books just to ease the boredom especially that the internet connection has been lost but I think it is also a huge blessing in disguise before I even knew it was. I learned to focus and pay attention to what is not virtual and what is needed to be noticed... my life. Though I know I am being guided by Him, sometimes I keep on insisting what I want to have and even be. I became petty enough not to notice the turn. By His love and grace, I was able to see it and go back into His Truth. It was not just a snap back, but it seemed... just.. awe.. and amazing - understatements as they are on how He did it. He just carried me through. When everything crumbles, He remains the One.

Seriously, behind all these petty vacation as how I called it before, He was brewing something. And before I knew all about it, there I go, I was able to face what I thought I cannot. By His love, I am made new, I am made more than what I thought I could ever be and I know, He is not done yet. By His strength and grace, I am an overcomer.

I just love Him more than words.

Oceans Within Islands


I had the best ride ever! Seriously, I really had.

I was riding in front of the ship, on the outer side. The wheels of the ship I rode makes huge waves and millions of ripples as it speeds up. I cannot find any island. People seemed to walk on water! Huge splashes create cool formations. The waves bumped at each other that it seems thousands of snakes are swimming all over. Crests and throughs are made. It’s so cool that I cannot help but look at it almost all through out. Some explorers outside were really wet. As we were journeying, I can really feel the cold wind with tiny splashes of rain drops on my face. Dripping water runs beside my right arm as we journey. The depth of the water is unexpected. I really had fun and adventure. I had a long journey. It seemed like forever. Though the air I breathe is made up mostly of smog and of almost a little oxygen and people are rushing to and from everyhere, I enjoyed the journey. I really, really did. I never had a ride like that, ever. Along the ride, one explorer rode and sat beside me. He was shivering so we took him out of the sea. He was so wet that he was so ashamed to get close and sit properly. To a certain extent, I felt pity for that explorer. As I reached the end of my journey and had to go down the ship, I was at ease to think that the explorer beside me could now sit properly and now have the ride comfortably.

Oh, by the way, I was able to sat in the outer front side of the Jeepney. I  had a fun ride yesterday while the storm surges the city.

Missing People

This one’s gonna be quick.

You know, I have been missing people…  a lot. I mean, people. Friends, the ones you usually spend a day just doing school works. Attending classes, feeling the same way for a cool-slash-boring professor, getting sleepy in class, enjoying the discussions. And the ones who most likely would make me smile without making much effort. Just being with them makes the day light. The mere presence of my idiosyncratic friends just.. completes the experience of a day with loads, hassles and challenge. They are the sunrise after a climb up a hill. Yea. That’s what they are to me. Funny and weird, though. Ugh. And it is so lame. I know. College friends. Yea.

I miss them. Really.Oh, well. But classes are about to start next month. Hopefully, no more of this feeling, hopefully.  Though changes will be at hand for sure.
Hm. Sighs.
