happy morning!

Mornings should be welcome with smile because it is a blessing from God. It is also God’s way of saying “I love you my child”, and aside from that you have a million reasons to smile every time you wake up. It can be the smell of the delicious sinangag ni Nanay with matching tinapa at kamatis, or it can also be the warm sunlight touching your face from the window right beside your bed. It can be the small things you see, hear or feel. But sometimes we are so busy thinking about our problems that we didn’t appreciate every blessing that God is giving us in every second, every minute, and every hour of everyday.

What I am saying is that we should be thankful of what we have right now though we cannot have what we wanted , God is making sure that we have what we needed. Like in my case, I want to be rich like Manny Pacquiao, Manny Villar or Chavit Singson to have all the things that I wanted like fancy clothes, luxury cars and high class circle of friends. But God gave me a simple life, a simple family, and a simple group of friends because that’s what I needed for now and it matters most rather than things I wanted to have (but like I've always wanted I'll be rich someday, not to have the material things this consumeristic world can offer but to help less fortunate people and share it with them).

I am so blessed. Blessed in a way that He gave me a simple yet loving family that truly cares and always there through my ups and downs. Blessed in a way that He gave me a simple yet true friends that understands me no matter what I do. And blessed in a way that He gave me a simple yet happy and peaceful life here on earth, I could not ask for more because simply I have all the things I needed. I know you get my point, there’s no need for you to be rich just to be happy and contented.

Money can’t buy you a true happiness or one happy morning because there are so many priceless things you can experience that you don’t have to pay a single centavo for it. All you need is to open your heart and feel God’s love in every thing because the true source of happiness comes from the priceless things we have, yet we always taken for granted.

I invented a saying, “Life is too precious to be wasted” (yah, precious indeed!) it’s hard for us to realize this but that is the truth. While some people are too busy enjoying their life and doing their purpose, some seems to be contented living in the world full of misery and wasting every single chance to be happy. I wonder why they chose hanging out with Mr. Misery over the fact that God gave them free will to choose.

Now, when did the last time you wake up in the morning with a smile in your face? Can’t even remember? Don’t even care? Well this is a chance for you to try what I am saying and let yourself live in a better world just by seeing life in its brighter and more colorful side or beyond the imperfection. Take away your burdens and miseries and give it all to God and just live your life as ideal as you want it to be, and then when you seemed to like it more than your old life, it is for you to enjoy every single of it not me nor other people.

Birds are chirping in the nearby trees, a delicious breakfast ready on the dining table with matching picture perfect sunrise I can see right outside my window. I know there will be a one happy morning for everyone.

ang munti kong pangarap

Tapos na ang Semana Santa kaya balik na naman sa normal na gawain ang mga tao. Pero sa aking pagmamasid ikinalulungkot kong malaman na ang kahulugan na pala ngayon ng Holy week ay outing dito, outing doon, jamming gabi-gabi at walang tigil na party. Masakit tanggapin na ang henerasyon ng tao ngayon ay mahina na ang pananampalataya sa kanya at tila yata materyal na bagay na ang sinasamba ng karamihan. Hindi nakapagtataka ang maraming kaso ng krimen at masasamang balita na meron sa bawat sulok ng mundo.

Sa aking pagninilay-nilay sa nagdaang linggo may munting pangarap na nabuo sa aking puso. Gusto kong ibaba ang langit dito sa lupa para maranasan ito ng lahat (ha? hindi ako nababaliw!). Oo, hindi ko magagawa ang magagandang landscape sa langit o literal na magaya ang pisikal na itsura ng nito, ang ibig kong sabihin ay kung anong atmosphere sa langit. Siguro nagtatanong ka ngayon kung paano ko naman nalaman kung anong atmosphere sa langit samantalang hindi pa naman ako nakakapunta doon. Simple lang, nabasa ko lang lahat ng nalalaman ko tungkol sa langit pagkatapos ginamitan ko ng matinding imahinasyon para mabuo ang perpektong itsura nito sa isip at sa puso ko.

Kung iniisip mo na imposible ang pangarap ko, isipin mong mabuti baka kasi impossible para sayo na may langit. Para sa akin ang langit ay isang lugar na puno ng pagmamahal sa sarili at sa kapwa. Lugar na walang gumagawa ng masama kaya walang nangyayaring masama, kung bakit, dahil mahal nila ang sarili nila at ang kapwa nila. At higit sa lahat lugar kung saan mararanasan mo ang walang kapantay na kasiyahan dahil maraming nagmamahal sa'yo hindi dahil sa mayaman ka o popular ka kundi dahil anak ka ng Diyos ama at kapatid ka nila. Ang sarap isipin na ang munting pangarap na ito ay maisasakatuparan ko sa mga darating na panahon, ngayon pa lang abot langit na ang ngiti ko at sobrang saya na ang nadarama ko habang iniisip ito.

Simple lang naman mabuhay dito sa mundo kaya lang naman nagiging mahirap sa iba na mabuhay dahil may mga taong ginagawa itong kumplikado, pero kung sundin lang natin ang mga utos niya at hayaan natin siyang punuin ng pagmamahal ang mga puso natin sigurado nasa lupa pa lang tayo eh parang langit na. Alam ko na hindi ko kayang gawin ito mag-isa kaya makikipagtulungan ako sa mga taong ganito rin ang pangarap o makikipagsanib-pwersa sa mga taong gumagawa na ng langit dito sa lupa kaya hindi magtatagal darating ang panahon hindi ko na ito matatawag muli pa na isang pangarap.

Hindi madaling magmahal sa kapwa lalo na kung kaaway mo pero kung umaapaw ang pagmamahal na ibinibigay sa'yo ng Diyos hindi ba't madali na para sa'yo na maibahagi ito sa iba? kung sobra-sobrang blessings ang natatanggap mo di'ba madali na lang mamigay sa iba? At kung sakali man na hindi ibalik sa'yo ang ibinigay mo sa taong yun hayaan mo na Diyos na ang magbalik sa'yo nito. Ang pinakadahilan kung bakit tayo nandito at nabubuhay ay para magmahal.

Kung gusto mong mapalapit sa kanya hindi pa huli ang lahat dahil iniintay ka lang niya kapatid ko. Ito ang isang website na pwede kong irekomenda sa'yo para mahanap mo siya sa puso mo. http://bosanchez.ph/.  Maraming article ang mababasa mo na maaring makakatulong sa'yo sa website na nabanggit ko. God bless you!

I only have 58 days left

It's not that I am dying or something bad will happen and I have 58 days left to live this awesome life (God forbid), what I mean to say is I only have 58 days to prepare myself and accomplish things before my age turns 21 this coming May 10. How time pass by so quickly and I'm definitely not getting any younger at all, and some thoughts are bothering me lately that I became insomniac and it's giving me a migraine every now and then. So what's the fuss all about huh? nothing, just me loosing my self-esteem because at the age of twenty I still don't know what I want to do with my life and don't have any plans yet (that hits my head really really hard). This is the mere result of years I deprived myself from exploring life outside my room especially during high school days when I locked my self up in my room and watch television as long as it please me.

A time machine will help me a lot with my present situation if only I can turn back time and change things so that my life will not turn out the way it is now. In case you're wondering if I even have at least friends to mingle with and not just my very best friend which is the television set, yeah, I have friends but I don't see them often and I don't communicate much not really minding at all. To cut the chase, I am living within my comfort zone all those years and not minding anything about the future so here I am making sentiments about my foolishness. Now after seeking for advice from my dear friends and after reading a bunch of blogs and watching a lot of good vibes videos on youtube, I am ready to start from scratch and step by step creating myself because there's this saying that "life is not about finding yourself, it's about creating yourself" which is very true.

A special thanks for my family and their never ending love and support for me whenever I'm in trouble or just feeling inferior they never fail to raise me up every downfall. This time I will make them proud by being strong enough to step out of my comfort zone and not let another year pass and miss out again somethings that matters. I can't wait to start the new chapter of my life and I'm looking forward to the adventures that awaits me. Kung hindi ngayon, kailan pa ako magsisimula? life is unpredictable we have to expect the unexpected and live our lives to the fullest today without thinking about tomorrow. It's scary but I think I can handle it with the help of my loving family and friends I will do just fine.

Really looking forward for the new chapter of my life I know it will not be easy but someone have to change for the better and for the benefit of all. I can picture myself now after 5 years (oh yeah!), sometimes we just really need a little spanking to be able to wake up into reality.^_^
