a moment of peace to gather the pieces

Our physical bodies are minute compared to lives we could live..

So stop staring at lives from the inside out.
Start loving life from the deepest trenches of your heart.

with plenty of love to give,
ron

Too busy for the net...

This is what is left of my sanity and my time..

Took a second to breath in virtual reality..
I'll be back soon..
As long as I can wake up with a smile on my face..
As long as I know that there is a chance a miracle will happen..
As long as you are still in this heart..
As long as He is with me..

I can survive..
I can do it all..

A Fork in The Road

I am saddened by the fact that it was that easy for you to let it all go. Maybe there were too many misunderstandings that you could see past the fact that I am still willing to give it a chance.

I am still here.

For me friend are friends till the end. I will be honest. I am not really a fortune teller. All I wanted was for you to be clear if you need me cause I am wanted to be there. I am willing to be there.

I am still willing.

But I can understand that there are too many roads one could take. There's always a fork ahead. Right or left. Left or right. In the end, we unconsciously went our own separate ways. I am sad.

I am still sad.

I understand that life is filled with perfect coincidences. Maybe someday it will be a day of perfect coincidence where we will find ourselves in the same road at the same time.

Goodbye friend. Belated Happy Birthday.

You will be missed..

checking reality,

Message from my past to my future

Hey you! The past year has been great! Greater than what we have expected.

Through mostly thick and sometimes thin, we have gone through what life threw at us.

God never swayed. We almost always swayed, yet we stood strong.



At the sermon at mass that I attended with the family before New Year's eve, the priest gave me some words and wisdom that made me able to put something that has sense in this year-end entry.

And I quote, "Many of you are wearing new clothes for this mass. Many have already bathe to welcome the new year....".

Of all the presumptions that he said, nothing was 'aimed' at me, for a lack of a better word. So that made me think. I did not wear anything new that mass. I did not bathe for that mass. :D

So what was the point?

I just thought that 2009 was a really great year. I could not count the immense number of blessings I received from the Almighty. I really think that I am making good progress in my journey in being what God and I want myself to be.

This is why the statement 'change' is not really the best word to describe what I want myself to experience this new year. Again, it is a process and I am still in this process. So, I choose 'continue the change'.

I will still keep the many many many things I have learned and experienced in 2009. It is a milestone in our challenging, peculiar, mind-numbing journey called life. But, there will always be room for improvement! For the bigger things, For the better things, For the most important thing. Love.

This moment, I would honestly say, is the real start of the start of our journey that is LEGEN... wait for it!...


DARY!

I found.

I found music..

.. I found rhythm

I found peace..

.. I found meaning

Beneath the melody..

Life is a beautiful symphony..

A story as old as time it self..

Focusing on the music,

The rays will guide you home

He said..

"I will be your light"

And I believe Him..

Even in the darkest of places, you can still see the faintest light.. the smallest spark..

I've got my feet wet

A very unexpected trip. Full of surprises, sense and, of course, non-sense.

I've got my feet and enjoyed every moment that God gave me.

It started with a trip to the mountain to clean up other peoples messes. I should have taken pictures of the huge amounts of trash that tourists leave at the great mountain of Banahaw.

The call to be earth's guardian became more clear to me. The call to be someone with purpose.

It was a good to mark the start of the end of the semester with something that has meaning. Well, for me anyways. Some were uneasy. Feeling the vivid differences of the reality from the expected. I couldn't blame them. Most of the time, we only hear the things that we wanted to hear.

Like for example.

When she said: First we will go to the mountain to participate in a clean-up, and then we will go to the beach and to a very beautiful resort.

He'll only here: Beach, Resort.

One of the many complexities of human nature.

When she said: I don't want anything serious right now.

She really meant: I just haven't found the person that I want to be serious with.

When I said: I am OK. I don't need her.

What I really meant is:

But the trip eventually came to the real fun part. The part full of nonsense with a little bit of sense. The orange bands represent freedom. Freedom to not care about the real world for a while. Freedom to dream, even if just for a little while.

ORANGE BANDS OF FREEDOM!

Beer became the main social lubricant. A lot of good stories and points-of-views were shared. Some forcefully.

The point was not to get wasted. It was never the point. And, never will be the point. The skillful exchange of words is enough. The enjoyment of one's company is enough. Enjoying the life's moments was enough.

These are the VACATIONEERS (without me)

The plan was simple.

Enjoy what is given to you.

This is what our lives should be.

Enjoy what is given to you by life.

This is what our lives should portray.

Enjoy what is given to you by God.

Me: Enjoying life's miracles.



Our life is a gift. It is a privilege. It is limited.

Use yours wisely.

savoring every little bit,
