WHAT I HAVE BECOME AFTER 10 YEARS

Happy Anniversary What I have become after almost 10 years seems to be the right title for this post.

Happy 6^th year anniversary to my blog!

When I started this outlet in cyberspace, I honestly don’t care if someone will read it or not, or if somebody from the other side of the world will get to come across of my blog. My intention was merely to write what I’m feeling. During Friendster days, I use my account there to write and nothing else. So I decided to come up with a blog instead. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to import my entries from Friendster and Multiply here. Tsks. I think, I’ve been blogging for quite some time now, like nearly 10 years.

In fact, in a decade of writing my rants and raves, never in an instance that I think I will able to document the events in my life.

Pain – Different kind of pains, sufferings; all of these I knew how it feels to be emotionally bruised. I’m not a perfect human being; I know that there were times wherein I may have hurt someone intentionally and yet don’t have any idea that I actually did or was it the other way around? With all these, I bounced back higher and higher after each incident. With the lessons gained from each impediment gives me the reason to breathe and take life as it is with much enthusiasm of looking forward to another day. After all, it was a bad day – not a bad life.

Love – I’ve learned that saying “I Love You” will make someone’s day. I even can’t remember how many times in a day I will say this to my Dad and Mom. Whether it be when I woke up in the afternoon and my Dad will greet me “Good Morning” Yes, I work GY shift before and I still get to be greeted good morning at 6PM. I miss hugging my Dad and kissing his cheeks whenever I greet him back with “Good Morning Daddy!!!!” Yes I’m that energetic. Lol! Or if I call my Mom midday just to check up on her, I will end it with “I Love You” too. I guess that is more of telling them how we feel. We are all busy growing up and yet we are neglecting the fact that they are growing old.

To my relatives whom I’m fond of calling “Loves” too. Because of my new work schedule, I have the liberty to call or text them while in transit. Blame the morning traffic here in the metro. With these little gestures, I was still able to feel connected with them despite the distance. It’s more of catching up and letting them know “I remember you” early this morning.

To my friends, yes I am the worst! Seriously, I have the habit of reading your texts/BBMs but will put down my phone and will totally forget to reply. I’m sorry and it wasn’t intentional. However, if I’m holding my phone, I get to scroll down and down and down and will realize I have 2-3 days old messages that I haven’t replied to yet. Sorry, I’m really am :) (blaming the 3 phones in my bag! Lolololol :P)

Faith – I’m still working on my personal relationship with Him. Everybody is and this doesn’t make me exempted. In a few days, I will be celebrating my year in the community. I feel there’s so much had happened in the last 12 months. I get to attend a talk last September 1, 2012 “Real Love Revolution” I’m thankful to Catalyst of UA&P for bringing these wonderful speakers to Manila! Lea Darrow, a finalist in America’s Next Top Model shared her views in what love is. What she shared was really worth listening to, not to mention the oath taking we all did after the talk and the funny Jason Evert. I bet he's a cool dad.

I guess being 30 now is such a wonderful age. With all the things happened in the last decade, I feel that I've grown into a woman. I can't wait to be 40 years old! I've heard it's a great age too :)
