Happiest when...



Note: I’m reposting this as a reminder of my life then as a volunteer teacher for kids, as a vocalist/member of the music ministry, a volunteer caring for elders, and an active participant of outreach projects.
I hope people could also spare time for these inspiring life-enriching deeds.

(I'm writing this to simply express myself, modesty aside)

I'm happiest when I serve and extend my hands to anyone who needs my help and even to those who haven't even cried out for me. I am happy to help. Free of charge. (Pero kung pakakainin ba naman ako ng masarap na pagkain, why not? hehehehe!)

A simple affirmation - "Thank You" - is more than enough.

My heart speaks of concern as my actions carry out its mission. It beats and smiles at its widest,  all at the same time, as I hear even a sigh of relief from the one I took care of and spent time and affection to.

The thick pages of my life's book gets even thicker as I experience sharing myself to others.  Striving to be better each day, I admit I am no saint. But through these acts of love, I do hope I get even an inch closer to being one.

I have me. I own myself. Yet, the real owner of my whole being is my loving Father. He created me uniquely and originally so that I can bring an exceptional kind of joy to all His other creations. That is why as I take in-charge of my life, I let Him manage and lead me. I allow Him to let me serve and bless His beloved children.

I am humbled to serve.   

"Listen to Your Heart"


I found this in my email sent by my best friend, Lyn, dated April 6, 2005. (ang tagal na!)

Just wanna share it 'coz it makes total sense.
Listen To Your Heart 

We all want to make things better in our lives, 

but lots of times we just don't know where or when to begin. 

Sometimes we are troubled about something deep inside, and we are afraid of dealing with our problems because we've been hurt before, and we remember what hurt can bring. 

Making things better involves changing but change isn't such a bad thing. 

Life isn't always easy. 

No one ever promised it would be but it can be wonderful at times
and it's up to us to make those times happen. 

Where?. . . Beginning within. 

When?. . . With the dawn of each new day. 

How?. . . Listen to your heart. 

It will really show you the way. 

Our hearts can be very fragile, yet it can give us the strongest feelings we can possibly feel. 

Our hearts don't heal as fast as we want it to heal, but once you open your heart again 
each wound will seal away. 

Listen to your heart with that sixth sense we all posses. 

When you do it might take you to places you once dream of. 

When you do it might lead you to that someone so very special. 

Listen to your heart for it speaks in volumes; for it speaks the language of love.


On a personal note, all I can wrap it up in these words: In reality, everything is about LOVE. We can easily decide, choose, act, and move mountains because and for love. This is what I strongly believe in.   

IF YOU ONLY HAVE 30 DAYS TO LIVE, WHAT WOULD YOU DO?



Think it over.
Will you just think or do?
How will you do it?
When will you start?
Whats' your reason for doing what you have decided to do on your last 30 days?
Will it be 30 days of sorrow or 30 days of joy?

You can tell me what's on your mind right now. 'Cause I know what I want to do with my last 30 days.
