ALL MY LIFE

I will never find another lover
sweeter than you, sweeter than you
And I will never find another lover
more precious than you, more precious than you
Cause boy you are
Close to me you like my mother, close to me you’re like my father
Close to me you’re like my sister, close to me you’re like my brother
You are the only one, my everything
And to you this song I sing

Chorus
All my life
I prayed for someone like you
And I thank God, that I, that I finally found you
All my life, I prayed for someone like you
I hope that you feel the same way too
Yes I pray that you do love me to

I promise to never fall in love
With a stranger
You’re all I’m thinking of
I praise the Lord above
For sending me your love
I cherish every hug
I really love you

Repeat Chorus

You’re everything I ever know
When you smile my face always seems to glow
You turned my life around,
you picked me up when I was down
And I hope that you feel the same way too
Yes, I pray that you do love me too

Just a touch of the savior’s hand

By God’s gracious providence I am now  healed. No more tears, loneliness and worries. Everything is fine now. I know He works in ways I cannot see but I feel  it. He works within me.  I felt his warm embrace during those times I cried out for comfort, bringing my emotional pain to  Him. It was just like magic,  suddenly I feel alright. Just one touched of  His Hand and  my emotional  pain is gone.

I can make a difference

I got a call from an old egyptian friend last night. I met him in Dubai. He used to be my father, my clown during those saddiest moments, my crying shoulder and listener to my complains.

During our conversation He said something that  overwhelms my soul. He said ” Everyday He remembers me for he saw the difference in me  compare to girls he met specifically to all Filipina  he knew.  He told me to be still, remain godly, extraordinary and righteous. It’s a great honor that my light shines on him, that he sees the light, the difference in me. It’s a great balm for  all the tease and persecutions I’ve got for being different from others.

Being different is not easy. It is a li’l bit uncomfortable & sacrificial. We want people to like us especially in a foreign land, to have friends and  companion, and the safest way  to do is to blend in. But following Christ has never been about blending in. It’s all about bringing the wonderful difference of our God to the world, to our office & to our friendships. Dare to be different_for God’s sake.

 

Oman, Here I come!

Atlast after long hours of travel with Etihad Airways it’s now over. I arrived in Muscat Oman International Airport at 10:45 am. The Pulic Relation Officer picked me up and brought me directly to the Office. It took only a while introducing myself to them and vise versa and they sent me right away to the accommodation which is just so very close to the Hotel.

I appreciate them so much the way they welcome me. They prepared a bottles of water, beddings, towel, basket of fruits & welcome letter in my bed.

MY FRIST DAY:
Inevitably can’t kept  tears from falling.  I felt like I was in the wilderness, so lonely & broken,  don’t know where to go, don’t know where to turn, nothing to do but to go on , crying  & counting the days. I have nothing but Hope. Hope that one day I would find a companion and find the way back home. Sometimes I could say that money could not pay to the loneliness I have encountered. Better to work & stay in my own country eventhough I will earn not that much compare on how much I will earn abroad, atleast I am happy and not lonely. I decided then  might this will be my last time.

@ Work

We made a Hotel Tours from Muscat to Al Madinah Holiday Inn Hotel branch on my first day of training. I thank God I enjoyed it. I forgot one day of sorrow. I enjoyed seeing the overlooking rock  mountains and ocean and I enjoy taking picture to myself.  he..he…I am nervous but in the same time excited  for I am going to have a training in Front Office reception,  Reservation, Housekeeping and F&B.  It’s good for me because I know I will gain knowledge &  learn many things from it.

I’m saying goodbye…

Since childhood, I have always been fascinated to work abroad than to work in my own country. This is it! I am leaving  tomorrow to start a new journey of my life. It feels very unusual  though it  isn’t my first time. I don’t know if  I will gonna go or back-out for definetly I will gonna miss my family, love one and friends  and yet I’m so tired of  being alone and hate  be a stranger again. Besides,  I know it already how it is hard  to work in a foreign country.  But  of course I need to decide to go considering all the expenses we spent, believing that I would find a greener pasture there and this is what I long for. If I did it before why not this time?. I just need to be strong again and  take more courage. God is with me wherever I go. I am standing on His promises as what he said in Jeremiah 29:11-13 “I know the plans I have for you,  declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

I hate saying this…but…to all of you who loves me..GOODBYE!  Don’t  worry & sad for I will come back home.  Saying goodbye it doesn’t mean forever, it’s just GOODBYE.

To my family, thank you for all your supports.  You are my inspiration. I love you and I will miss you all. I am so proud you are my family.Please, pray for me and I will pray for you all also.

My youngest brother has just arrived from a four days Jamboree. So sweet of him for the first time he bought a very delicious and expensive presents for us. We’re happy and glad that through their activities he has been molded as a good Filipino citizen, responsible individual and independent person and yet  he  learned  how to socialize  and mingle with others people. Thanks BSP! We love you Bro!

That’s my world#1:Cross

A Sunken Cemetery due to volcano eruption. Until now it is still sunken and it is pretty deep  but during  low tide the graveyard will be seen. It is located in my beloved country at  Camiguin Philippines. Isn’t it amazing?
My first entry of

picture perfect

“Savor  every moments with your family”

We start to collect family photos  for we know sooner or later each member of  the family will become too busy with our own lives, and others will depart and one by one will get married. No more time for each other, no more bonding and might  may not see each other  for a couple of years either.

So, while we still the have chance we take family photos because it’s seldom for us  to be complete and intact. A time like this is very limited that is why we make the most out of it.  And that one day, we’ll have something to reminisce and embrace with when we are away and alone. And when we become old, we have something to show to our grandchildren who our family was. It’s the memory that counts for we could not bring back the past.

Right now, I am taking my time with my family while I still have the chance to be with them so that time will not come that I will regret each day I  wasted and took  my family for granted.

Happy Valentines Day!

Do you know the story behind Valentines Day? Well, you need to find out.

Thoughts “Without the love of God in us, we cannot truly love another person as He intended to us to love. That’s why it is so important for us to work on our relationship with God before we attempt to start a relationship with someone else.”

what makes you decide?

I don’t know what makes you suddenly decide a major decision in your life. You didn’t even ask any suggestions from your family. It isn’t like that even though you are already 23,  graduauted and got a profession already means you can decide for yourself alone  and think that you’re mature enough. How can we trust you though you didn’t show it to us that you can be trusted?!. You don’t know anything yet what life is all about and yet you’re not yet expose to the world. I think you’re just too selfish to think for yourself. You don’t even think first to pay back the ones who spent a lot of money for your studies , do you?. They thought you would be a great help when you graduate but they were wrong. You don’t have a heart to help and sacrifice even a little. You are but just an expense. By the way, ever since you are not been a great help in the family.

I really don’t know why you are so in hurry to get married. True love can wait. You just wasted the opportunity to work abroad. We will see how high or until where you gonna fly having a family of your own. I just hope you will not regret even so little for the rest of your life. Good luck and God bless!
