God help me through this trying time, and hold me close to You. Reassure me Father of my faith, and that You love me too. Help me Father to resist, temptations that prevail, I know that the enemy's in our midst' and trying not to fail.

Each time I feel myself slipping, I look up to You and say, Father, I need you so very much, please guide me in the right way. And at times when I'm scared and all alone, and I don't know what to do. I think why keep trying, and not give up, then I remember You.

I picture you upon the cross, the pain you were willing to take. As long as I live I will not understand, why You did that just for our sake. And in my heart there will always be, the love that I feel for You.

I thank You Father so very much, for the love that You give to me too.

if..

If one day you feel like crying
Call me.
I do not promise you that
I will make you laugh
But I can cry with you.

If one day you want to run away
Do not be afraid to call me.
I do not promise to ask you to stop,
But I can run with you.

If one day you do not want to listen to anybody;
Call me and
I promise to be very quiet.

But
If one day you call and there is no answer
Come fast to see me
Perhaps I need you...

As I was in the midst of my lowest moment right now, I was able to find a real nice thought through a post. And here goes:

• It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return, But what is more painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let that person know how you feel.

• A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and you just have to let go.
  
  
• The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.
  

• It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.
  

• It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone-but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

• Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.

• Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.

• Always put yourself in the other's shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the person too.

• A careless word may kindle strife; a cruel word may wreck a life; a timely word may level stress; a loving word may heal and bless.

• The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

• Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, ends with a tear. When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you're the one smiling and everyone around you is crying.

Just sharing though, It really made me realize some things that I am actually thinking about..It's like all good for nothing quotes, but definitely, it hooked me up and made me think of things.. =)

fly, butTerfLy..

One day while walking through the woods, a man found a cocoon. He decided to take the cocoon home to watch its transformation into a beautiful butterfly. He gently placed it on his table and watched it for several days.

One day, a small opening appeared and the cocoon started to move. The old man sat and watched it for several hours as it struggled and struggled to force its body from the cocoon.

Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and was unable to go any farther. Finally, the old man feeling sorry for the cocooned butterfly, decided to help the butterfly. He took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then easily emerged.

But it had a swollen body and small, shriveled wings. The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body, which would contract in time.

Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings. It never was able to fly.

What the man in his kindness and haste did not understand was that the restricting cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening, were God's way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings, so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.

Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allowed us to go through our life without any obstacles, it would only cripple us. We would not be as strong as what we could have been.

And we could never fly.

to let g0..what d0es it mEan?

To "let go" does not mean to stop caring.
It means I can't do it for someone else.

To "let go" is not to cut myself off.
It's the realization that I can't control another.

To "let go" is to admit powerlessness,
which means the outcome is not in my hands.

To "let go" is not to try to change or blame another.
It's to make the most of myself.
To "let go" is not to care for, but to care about.

To "let go" is not to fix, but to be supportive.
To "let go" is not to judge, but to allow another
to be a human being.

To "let go" is not to be in the middle,
arranging all the outcomes,
but to allow others to affect their own destinies.

To "let go" is not to deny, but to accept.
To "let go" is not to nag, scold, or argue,
but instead to search out my own shortcomings
and correct them.

To "let go" is not to adjust everything to my desires,
but to take each day as it comes and cherish myself in it.

To "let go" is not to regret the past,
but to grow and live for the future.
To "let go" is to fear less and to love more.

ALMOST

Another song to better express what I once felt. This is definitely one of the truest song I've ever heard and loved. S0o0o mE..

How can one miss what she's never had
How could I reminisce when there is no past
How could I have memories of being happy with you boy
Could someone tell me how can this be
How could my mind pull up incidents
Recall dates and times that never happened
How could we celebrate a love that's too late
And how could I really mean the words I'm bout to say

I missed the times that we almost shared
I miss the love that was almost there
I miss the times that we use to kiss
At least in my dreams
Just let me take my time and reminisce
I miss the times that we never had
What happened to us we were almost there
Whoever said it's impossible to miss when you never had
Never almost had you

I cannot believe I let you go
Or what I should say I should've grabbed you up and never let you go
I should've went out with you
I should've made you my boo boy
Yes that's one time I should've broke the rules
I should've went on a date
Should've found a way to escape
Should've turned a almost into
If it happened now its to late
How could I celebrate a love that wasn't real
And if it didn't happen why does my heart feel

I missed the times that we almost shared
I miss the love that was almost there
I miss the times that we use to kiss
At least in my dreams
Just let me take my time and reminisce
I miss the times that we never had
What happened to us we were almost there
Whoever said it's impossible to miss when you never had
Never almost had you

Almost.mp3

i almost had you..

y0u matter to mE..

Sometimes it's hard to write the words
That you, my dear, should see.
Or say the things that you need to hear,
Or be as I should be.

You grow so fast and learn so much
It's hard for me each day.
To say or do just what is best,
To help along the way.

Should I be silent or give advice?
Should I answer yes or no?
Should I have control - set many rules,
Or simply let you go?One thing is certain--I'll make mistakes,
And some will seem hard to mend.

But if nothing else seems clear right now,
Know that you can always count on me.

spEciaL?!

"Special ba ako?" This is the question I always hear from a friend..a really dear and special friend. She used to ask me this since she learned na I have a special folder in my fon's inbox. My reply? A smile..

I'm a friend who would do anything to make my friends feel special and valued. I don't really mind about one's status in life, gender, preferred gender, race, faith, beliefs or whatever to be of standard for one to be called my friend. For most times, people would come and take advantage of me but it doesn't really matter. My bad because I allow them to. But do I care about them doing that to me? NO. After all, I'm learning naman eh.

This friend really is, special. First time we met, takot ako sa kanya kasi di siya nagsasalita not unless kakausapin. I just remember having first mingled with her, it was one of our last days nung transition. She used to sit beside me. The same, tahimik lang siya. Walang ka-imik imik. The first question she ever asked me was: "Anong sabi ni Nix?" (Nix, by the way, was our trainor), tapos I answered back. Un na 'yun! Nagsasalita nga pala siya! hahahah..from that time on, nakikipagkulitan na siya samin.

Firsts. Boy Bawang (cheese flavor). Tostillas. Chuckie. Intramuros. Gonuts Donuts. Dish days. Choco Baby (which you named Choco Sexy). Choco Strawberry. First price (you know what that is). Siopao. Breakfast. Midnight Movie Marathon. Enchanted Kingdom. New Year Bouquet. Sunflower. Baywalk. MOA. Sunset. Dolphins. Fireworks. Pictures. Lights. Giant Lanterns. Kabab. Bangus Belly. Seafood Pasta. Trinoma. Perfume (touch of pink at syempre yung red). Choco Package. Giant Slippers, etc, etc, etc..

How can I forget our petty fights, your acts that made me walk away for multiple times as if I'm crying in the rain? hahah...funny noh?

How can I forget how many times you've melted my heart by your tears? I know how firm I am but it really makes me weak..haay..naku naman..

You just don't know how thankful I am for having met a friend like you. Thank you so much for making me feel important (not to mention, you deny that fact! ahahah), loved and cared for. Again,

For bringing me happiness as though it were a gift I could open every day..I Thank You.
For listening to the words I want to say...I Appreciate You.
For letting me share the most personal parts of your world, and for welcoming me with your eyes....I Am Grateful To You.
For being the wonderful, kindgiving person you are....I Admire You.
For being everything you are to me, and for doing it so beautifully....I Thank You.......with All My Heart.

Now, if after all these you'd still ask me kung "special" ka, com'on! Suntukin kaya kita jan?! Haller, need I answer? YES, you are!

last chAnce..

I just so0o feel this song. Parang kapag eto na ang tugtog, wala na..hinto na ang world ko at tamang emote emote..looking back, this song is for someone na minahal ko ng sobra. {Sayang nga lang kasi hindi nya nalaman} Too late na for me to tell him kasi he's gone na..oopps! not sa heaven ha? He's still alive and kicking, may sarili na nga lang ciang buhay..

This is my last dance with you
This is my only chance to do all I can do
To let you know that what I feel for you is real

This is the last chance for us
This is the moment that I just cannot let end
Before I know that there's a chance were more than friends

So dont let go, dont let go
Make it last all night
This is my last chance to make you mine

I kept my feelings so deep
I kept my dreams of you and me somewhere inside
Although I prayed that you would see it in my eyes

But this is my last chance to say
Whats in my heart before you stay out of my life
And then you'll understand the way I feel inside

So hold me close cause it feels so right
This is my last chance to make it mine

Make this dream reality
So close and yet so far
Gotta find a way into your heart
Gotta speak my mind
Gotta open up to you this time
I cant let you slip away tonight
This is my last dance with you

This is my only chance to do all I can do
To let you know that what I feel for you is so real
So dont let go
Just make it last all night long
This is my last chance to make you mine, yeah
To make you mine

Well, no regrets though. Atleast I knew how it feels like being loved by him kahit na in a short span of time lang. I felt really special. Every move he made, every thing he did..certainly, it felt like magic. That's enough na for me to realize things and still be able to move forward without feeling incomplete.. =)

Thank you for teaching me how to love..it's quite painful though, but the pain is just temporary..you've made me a stronger person afterall..

We convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married, have a baby, then another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more content when they are.

After that, we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage. We tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse gets his or her act together, when we get a nicer car, are able to go on a nice vacation,or when we retire.

The truth is, there's no better time to be happy than right now. If not now, when? Your life will always be filled with challenges. It's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway. Happiness is the way. So, treasure every moment that you have and treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time with... and remember that time waits for no one.

So, stop waiting
--until your car or home is paid off

--until you get a new car or home

--until your kids leave the house

--until you go back to school

--until you lose ten pounds

--until you gain ten pounds

--until you finish school

--until you get a divorce

--until you get married

--until you have kids

--until you retire

--until summer

--until spring

--until winter

--until fall

--until you pass away...

There is no better time than right now to be happy.

Happiness is a journey, not a destination.

So -- work like you don't need money, Love like you've never been hurt, And dance like no one's watching.

f0r mY bEst friEnd..

Although it's quite a statement, it happens to be true.

The best friend I have ever had, I'm glad to say, is you.
You're there if I should need you and you never turn away.

I know I can depend on you at any time of day.
We've had our ups and downs as nearly everybody does.

But problems never last for long with special friends like us.
Some people have so many friends with whom they spend their time,

But no one has a best friend as wonderful as mine.
So thanks for always being there, your friendship's strong and true.

And I just want to let you know I'm always here for you!

a mEssAge fOr y0u..

I can't keep your feet from stumbling.
I can only offer my hand,

that you may grasp and not fall.

Your joys, triumphs, successes,
and happiness are not mine;
Yet I can share in your laughter.

Your decisions in life are not mine to make, nor to judge;
I can only support you, encourage you,
and help you when you ask.

I can't prevent you from falling away from friendship,
from your values, from me.
I can only pray for you, talk to you and wait for you.

I can't give you boundaries which
I have determined for you,
But I can give you the room to change,
room to grow, room to be yourself.

I can't keep your heart from breaking and hurting,
But I can cry with you and help you pick up the pieces
and put them back in place.

I can't tell you who you are.
I can only love you and be your friend.

haAay...love..

Love is the way you make someone feel
The way someone makes you feel
Love is the sharing and the caring
The want and the need.

Love is not just a word;
Love is a power with unknown strengths
It has the power to make someone smile
To make someone laugh...
To make someone love you in return

Love is what your heart feels
What your heart says
Ignore your heart and it will fade away
Listen to your heart...follow your heart,
Let it sing, let it run free and it can bring you anything

Love is a bond
A way to keep people together
Love is everything wonderful
Love is ...You.

a pAckAge that pAmpered mY m0uth..

Hmmm..it was a surprising week because it not just rained, but it poured chocolate goodies on me. How lovely, isn't it? Here's some of the stuff I was able to gather and was able to keep sa kailalim-ilaliman ng cabinet ko ..eheheh..sadly, late na nung narealize kong maganda siyang i-blog. Eto na lang ung natira..dami pa sana yan eh..

{Thanks po sa aking mga sponsors..eheheh..}

Pleasure of consuming. Part of the pleasure of eating chocolate is due to the fact that its melting point is slightly below human body temperature: it melts in the mouth. Chocolate intake has been linked with release of serotonin in the brain, which produces feelings of pleasure. A study reported by the BBC indicated that melting chocolate in one's mouth produced an increase in brain activity and heart rate that was more intense than that associated with passionate kissing, and also lasted four times as long after the activity had ended. Research has shown that heroin addicts tend to have an increased liking for chocolate; this may be because it triggers dopamine release in the brain's reinforcement systems — an effect, albeit a legal one, similar to that of cocaine .

Again, i just wanna thank those people who sent me all these. I want you to know na naappreciate ko po kayo and your purpose as well! ahahah..I just hope, maging successful ang ating target --->un eh, ang mapataba ako! Goodluck sa ating lahat!

"BER" month na

Yeyey! September na!

Natapos na ang month ng August..ilang months na lang, Christmas na naman. It's time for giving, sharing and loving! Naks..that's the spirit of it. I hope and pray people would feel it not just this holiday season but all throughout the year.

I'll be seeing my inaanaks na naman..and ofcourse, how can I miss last minute shopping for our loved ones? Hmm..so excited about it.

Hmmm..ano kaya ibibigay ko sakanila this year?

That's what I love about Christmas. Ansarap magbalot at mamigay ng gifts..

Santa, sana sa pasko, katukin mong pinto ng room ko at bigyan mo ko ng
isang malaking pulang sako.

At dun sa sako na 'yun, sana mas marami pang LOVE at PEACE of MIND akong mahuhugot..
'yung for real ba..

..'yun lang,

solb na solb na 'ko..

my bEsteSt friEnd..

The world is moving faster now;
We're on a changing course.

But you have helped me deal with life;
You've been a stable force.

A hug and a smile, a hand to hold,
A shoulder to lean on,
Advice to be told.

When I have had to follow;
New directions, you were there.
When the world was hard on me;
You always seemed to care.

Moments of laughter,
when nothing held together;
Made the slightest bit of sense.
You have always helped restore;
My inner confidence.

Everyone needs someone;
who's reliable and true.

Through the moments I've endured;
I'm grateful there was you.

Everyday I look around

Even when my life's a mess.
Knowing in my heart of hearts
My best friend, you are just the best.

Everyday I thank the Lord
For having given me
the very best that I can have,
That definitely is YOU.

**************************

If you've got secrets you want to tell, we can talk all day long. If your dreams get broken somehow, I'll remind you that you belong.

If you need some place to hide, you can hold my hand for a while. If your sky begins to fall, I'll stay with you 'til you smile.

Whenever you need some space, there's my room - you can take it. If someone breaks your heart, together we'll unbreak it.

When you feel sad or empty inside, I'll show you you're not alone. If you get lost out there, I'll come and take you home.

I'll go with you somewhere else, when you need to get away. And when nothing seems to be going right, and you need a friend, I'll stay.
