When My Mind Becomes Deeper…

I am already 20 years old, yet there are still lots of things I have to learn in life. There are even things young people have experienced which I still don’t. Although I am equipped with proper education but there are still things education won’t be able to teach us- and that is having experienced the things education has taught us.

I started discovering these feelings and realization when we had our company outing and team-building but I guess I have to share lots from this later.

‘Til next!

A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer’s showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.

As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car.

Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young man’s name embossed in gold. Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, “With all your money you give me a Bible? and stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.

Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and wonderful family, but realized his father was very old, and thought perhaps he should go to him. He had not seen him since
that graduation day. Before he could make arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things.

When he arrived at his father’s house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his father’s important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. His father had carefully underlined a verse, Matt 7:11, “And if ye, being evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Heavenly father which is in heaven, give to those who ask Him?” As he read those words, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible.

It had a tag with the dealer’s name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words…PAID IN FULL.

How many times do we miss God’s blessings because they are not packaged as we expected? I trust you enjoyed this. Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for…

IF YOUR GIFT IS NOT PACKED THE WAY YOU WANT IT, IT’S BECAUSE IT IS BETTER PACKED THAT WAY! ALWAYS APPRECIATE LITTLE THINGS; THEY USUALLY LEAD YOU TO ATTACHMENTS!

It has been a long time since I make use of my “msn” account so I decided to open it today. I never regret any stolen single moment doing chatting on the net because I have known lots of cool friends- friends that are totally different from my yahoo chat mates.

What makes it so unforgettable is that his name is “Ryan”- the very name of my boyfriend. I even told him so and he was fascinated upon hearing my confession. I admire him because he really respects his girlfriend and that he wasn’t able to do things to his gf just like most of American teenagers do. He was a virgin and so with his girlfriend, who is still 18, according to him…gosh! Unbelievable but he really insisted that he is telling the truth.

Well, although I am a person that easily believes but hard to be convinced, I just bear with what he said. Can you imagine a 20-year old guy, a fraternity member in North America, and a college drop-out who was once taking up broadcasting never had sex with his girlfriend? Unbelievable, but it’s true- according to him! Hahaha…

It’s not funny actually here in the Philippines, but knowing that he grows up in a liberal country with liberal-minded people is something questionable for us to believe.

But we can’t really judge people. There are really still who are very preserved! Just like me???

That was just the story of my stolen moments during working hours! But I think you should know that “stolen moments” are the most wonderful moments in ones life. Gotcha!

You might have experienced this, too!

You are sitting in your favorite chair reading a book. The site of you compels me to come to you and crawl into your lap. You glance away from your book for a moment and smile at me. As I sit there, head muzzled against your chest and shoulder, I enjoy the simple pleasure of being close to you. It is so quiet in the room that I can hear your steady heart beat in my ear. Your scent fills my nostrils and sends a pleasure signal through my body…I love the smell of you! I can not resist tipping my head up and nipping your earlobe gently with my teeth, then kissing it to make up for the bite! Next, I kiss your necks, my hand caresses your firm chest. I can feel your heart beating harder under my fingertips. Still reading your book your free hand reaches and touches my hair. I love it when you run your fingers through my hair, it feels so good! After a time I sit up slightly and kiss the corner of your full sensuous lips. Once again you glance away from your book and look into my eyes….I see a spark of interest in them! I press my lips gently against yours and feel you returning the pressure. Our lips part and tongues tentatively touch. Little shivers run down my spine at that first contact! We share a slow sweet kiss for a few moments….I hear your book drop to the floor as both of your arms wrap around me and you hold me close to you. The kiss grows more passionate…tongues duelling…hearts racing…hands roaming…passions soaring! Oh what a wonderful moment! Finally we part…a small sigh escapes me at the loss of contact. You smile down at me with fire in your eyes as one arm slips under my knees and the other under my arms. You stand and start to walk towards the bedroom whispering I want you, my love!

Once God held a meeting to see who is the greatest computer programmer.

The contestants were Jesus and Satan. God snapped His fingers and a Giant Flat Screen PC appeared. Jesus and Satan had thier own PC`s. The two were given 30 minutes to create a program and will be judged by God Himself. The two furiosly typed and filled ther screen with information and data protocols. After 25 minutes, the power generator shutted-down, but was restored immediately.

After 5 minutes, God spoke and told them, “Time`s up!! Show us your programs, please”. Satan stood and spoke loudly, “I have lost all the information and data I have created since the generator shutted-down! Now, what i have to show you is a piece of incomplete program”. “How about You Jesus?” ,God asked. Then Jesus pressed a key, on the big screen appeared images of the Heaven and angels singing gloriously, rejoicing. Satan mocked. “Why? we both were given plenty of time, but why!? all I had done is a piece of program, incomplete indeed to perform such work, but Jesus…” then God replied smiling…

“JESUS SAVES!!”

It has been quite a while that I really remained silent with the hottest controversy that has shaken the whole nation. But i guess, I really have to react now because it seems that I am already annoyed with the lots of talks the media has spread all over and this influences the Filipinos, I believe.

It’s all about the controversial audio tape that contains the conversation between the nation’s president and the COMELEC commissioner. This is a vague issue I would say, because even if the president has admitted that it was really her voice in the audio tape, it is still unjustifiable to impeach her right here and there. In fact, a senator in the name of Sen. Tatad admitted that it was he who has spreaded the wiretapped tapes and that he even gave the tape to somebody to make some editting on its content. This senator belongs to the admin opposing party and this is a BIG and CLEAR explanation that the audio tape is not a strong evidence against Pres. Arroyo.

The COMELEC commissioner in the name of “Garciliano” admitted that there were lots of the last election’s candidates who called him up including Sen. Ponce, Legarda, and a lot, lot more from the opposition party. This is just a political game and we should not believe directly to anybody in the position because all of them has something “fishy” inside. All of them are not looking for the welfare of the nation but to their own selfish agenda.

However, there are also lots of funny stories that came out amidst this controversy and one of these is the Estrada’s political resurrection. Oh my gosh…what the hell these kind of people are who still believe in Estrada’s capability to lead the nation! I will just have to leave this issue hanging as of the moment now. There are a lot to say about this but as of the moment I have to hold this back yet.

More on this later!

I never thought I could sew a blouse, dress a table, and handle an L-square with ease. This is my first premonition when I first decided to enter in a vocational school. But time runs so fast. Time changes so swiftly and man’s wisdom and knowledge grow even to the greatest heights of man’s imagination.

We can really never tell. Even if we are blessed with strong vibrations and the power of prophecy, I believe we can never tell the turn of events and the show of life’s pages and chapters. We just have to feel the beauty of every moment we are alive and think that every second of the day offers a secret miracle that touches our hearts. There are times when we need to be alone. We need to have a space so we would understand the very call of our soul and so it is not just

Thanks God, I feel a lot, lot better the whole day! Although I still have cough and colds, but I no longer have fever. Yes, I can already take a bath tomorrow! Gosh, this is really my first experience having no bath for almost two weeks and it feels so whew!!! My hair is so messy and sticky and I feel like I’m no longer that pretty as before…(hehehe…) but of course I’m still pretty because my honey tells me so.

Anyway, I have to end this now. My officemates and I will go to Ayala to get something to eat. It’s also a day loaded with stressful assignments. ‘Til next!

There are times when we feel so tired controlling things we are afraid to happen to us. Yes, this is true because sometimes destiny would really test our faith that we are just surprised things just happened as they are without us knowing it.

And if that time comes, you will be wrapped with mixed emotions…you will experience standing on crossroads. Of course that will happen because we are unprepared and we are used setting things out so we are ready to whatever may happen along our ways. But there are really a lot of things that just happened so, so swiftly and they usually come during times when we are very unprepared.

This is just what was happening to me for the past two weeks. I was very sick. My body was very tired and the doctor told us that my whole body was sufferring because of my kidney infection. I wasn’t able to report in the office for work for a week. I vomitted everything that I took in. I hate my medicines. I didn’t want to take them because there were really a lot of them and I felt I never got better with these drugs. My mom was so worried about me.

But of course, GOD is very good to all of us! I know I have sinned a lot and I have displeased Him but He never leaves my side. I know that He was just testing how strong my faith is for Him and how deep is my love for Him. And thanks God, I am feeling better now!

So when you encounter such experience, just let things be and never forget that nobody else can help us with all our needs but only Jesus. He is our Saviour at all times. Call Him all the time! He will never fail you. Believe me ‘coz I’ve been there!
