thinking aloud

........ been sitting here for a while.... seems my mind is not working..... is this memory gap? Oh, my! Sign of old age.... wait, am I that old?????? Anyway, age is only in the mind. As long as it doesn't show (much) hahahahaha

Its raining hard here now. I am thankful our place is not in the lowland easily flooded. Unlike those I saw on the news. When I was years younger, I can't remember that a place was flooded because of a day of continuous heavy rainfall. What had happened to Mother Earth? Global warming. Sudden change of weather. Unpredictable. So hot and warm now, in a while, heavy rains enough to flood the streets. Man's fault. Lack of discipline and self control. So many factors to consider. Whatever, the end result is very clear. We suffer. Anyway, just thinking aloud...

just dropping by

Life is full of trials and obstacles... Hindrances will come our way. Perseverance counts a lot...

Had I not persevered, I won't be here expressing my thoughts, right Che? Goodness!!!! I really thought I won't be able to be part of the group anymore ( trying hard?????).... anyway, I had triumphed, "against all odds" (Oh, nanu ka sana?)..

Lessons I got.... be a reader and read a lot and don't be too confident. Still, another pile of knowhow for me. Indeed, learning and education is just around the corner, right at the tip of our fingers.... school is not necessary for a person who wants to learn and grow intellectually. Lot of perseverance and diligence, coupled with self confidence and determination spell success. Experience is the greatest teacher next to Him. And what we got from our experiences can not be equalled even by the finest universities. (Comment?)

Whatever life brings us, whenever it may be, however it may come, we just have to believe in ourselves that we can surpass it all with Him by our side. As the saying goes "Prayer can move mountain." And these obstacles? The life's ups and downs? Well, they are there to add color to our life. So, better enjoy every bit of it.. let us paint our life then.. pastel is great, right? =) Wait, can I?????
