Beginning Again.

23 February 2009

small but significant.

Aren't we lucky to be given a new chance daily... to begin again, to be better, to forget all about our past hurts and pains, to come out of a maddening sadness, to break away from a bad habit, to a new person with a clean slate of soul and heart....?

These few days have been very refreshing for me. It is like going on this personal journey to rediscovering my soul. I have seen it hopeful, happy, sad, dark, jaded, cynical, and much more. But lately, it has given me this comfort that yes I can be a peaceful soul once again.

It is true that once we introspect and ask ourselves deeply of what has been causing so much angst, we break free from it. I have never felt more relieved.

To you, my very special friends, who have been nothing but supportive and inspirational to me I make this personal vow to get rid of anything negative. Life is too short. I do not want to waste it over useless tears and doubts. I am letting go of confusion and anger.

I wish I can share with you personally my notes in this journey, but I would rather keep it to myself. Things are just too much to be posted publicly. An old trusted pad and pen has been my company right before bedtime.

The secret to all this is prayer. Yes, it does wonders. And yes, God exists. Isn't Lent a perfect time to resolve to become our best?

This could be your Lenten fasting attitude. I'm giving you absolution from eating meat, just stay positive and keep that attitude forever.

Ai, thanks! That photo reminds me of that wonderful place we went to last Summer. I was on my way to order breakfast when I found this green bug and showed it to my Akio hehehe!

Tita Lou, I would like to abstain from meat for health reasons too hehehe!
