Early Morning Rants
Re my jeepney ride to the office...
- Ang dami na talagang BADING ngayon... Tsk, tsk... Just look around you pag nakasakay ka sa jeep sa umaga, nakapaligid ang mga lalaking walang kagentle-gentleman sa katawan... Merong ayaw mag-abot ng bayad. Deadma kunwari sa taong nakikisuyo na iabot yung bayad. Tapos yung mga magmo-move pa sa dulo pag may sasakay eh nakita na nga nilang matanda yung sumasakay... Daig pa ata ang bakla! Mas matatanggap ko pa nga ata kung bading nga talaga sila eh... Tsk, tsk...
- At siyempre nakaka-irita din yung mga taong sobra kung makaaupo... Yung tipong feeling niya dalawa yung ibinayad niya... Pag lalaki, bubukaka ng sobrang luwang na parang 2 tao na yung kasya! Pag babae naman, sobrang naka-tagilid kung makaupo! Hay nako, ang insensitive ha!
Re my "psyche"...
- Hindi ko alam kung masyado lang ako nago-overreact sa mga bagay-bagay, or nagiging oversensitive, or nago-overexpect lang ako... Hindi nga ata talaga maganda pag sobra...
- Bakit ganun? Feeling ko parang wala akong karapatang magalit... I'm confused if it's self-proclaimed or impressed by other people...

I Love You...
A few days ago, I received a text message from a friend saying to start a romantic day by shouting "I LOVE YOU LORD! Payakap naman!". So I want to begin this day "romantically", filled with so much love for my Savior, by singing these love songs... :)
"I love you, O Lord, my strength."
Psalm 18:1 (NIV)
Love Song for a SaviorJars of ClayIn open fields of wild flowers
She breathes the air and flies away
She thanks her Jesus for the daises and the roses
In no simple language
Someday she'll understand the meaning of it all
He's more than the laughter or the stars in the heavens
As close as a heartbeat or a song on her lips
Someday she'll trust Him and learn how to see Him
Someday He'll call her and she will come running
And fall in His arms and the tears will fall down and she'll pray
I want to fall in love with You
I want to fall in love with YouI want to fall in love with You
I want to fall in love with You
Sitting silent wearing Sunday best
The sermon echoes through the walls
A great salvation through it calls to the people
Who stare into nowhere, and can't feel the chains on their souls
He's more than the laughter or the stars in the heavens
As close as a heartbeat or a song on our lips
Someday we'll trust Him and learn how to see Him
Someday He'll call us and we will come running
And fall in His arms and the tears will fall down and we'll pray
I want to fall in love with You
I want to fall in love with You
I want to fall in love with You
I want to fall in love with YouIt seems too easy to call you "Savior"
Not close enough to call you "God"
So as I sit and think of words I can mention
To show my devotionI
I want to fall in love with You
I want to fall in love with You
I want to fall in love with You
I want to fall in love with YouMy heart beats for YouBetter Than LifeHillsong UnitedBetter than the riches of this world
Better than the sound of my friends' voices
Better than the biggest dreams in my heart and that's just the start
Better than getting what I say I need
Better than living the life that I want to
Better than the love anyone could give
Your love is
And You hold me now in Your arms You never let me go
And You oh Lord made the sunshine, and the moonlight and the nightsky
You give me breath and all Your love
I give my heart to You
Because
I can't stop falling in love with You
I'll never stop falling in love with YouMore Than LifeHillsong UnitedStand by everything You said
Stand by the promises we made
Let go of everythingI've done
I'll run into Your open arms
And all I know
I love You more than lifeI love You more than lifeFall back on everything You've done
Fall back on everlasting arms
When all the world is swept away
You are all the things I need
You're the air I breathe
How can it be
You were the One on the cross
Lifted for all our shame?
How can it be
The scars in Your hands are for me?
You are the King of all

"Thoughts to ponder:
- Don't spend your lifetime loving a person if you have no plans to tell what you feel... It's selfish.
- Love can never be so beautiful without friendship. One leads to another and the process is irreversible. The best of lovers are the best of friends.
- Empty is the life that's filled with nothing but things.
- If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he's thirsty, give him a drink. By doing this you'll make him burn in shame.
- Telling the truth and making someone cry is better than telling a lie and making someone smile."
~~~
"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass. It's learning to dance in the rain. It's singing in the car when you don't even know all the words. It's giving your heart to someone even if you're a little scared at first. It's about taking risks and making life worth living. 'Cause every minute you waste is a minute you'll never get back..."
~~~
"Sometimes we wish we are big, wish we were somewhere, wish we had that someone... But sometimes, we wish too much... that we miss to enjoy who we are, where we are, and who we have..."
~~~
"When loving someone, never regret what you did. Only regret what you never did. It's not a matter of finding the right person but it's a matter of being the right person for the one you chose to love..."
~~~
"The way to love someone is to lightly run your finger over that person's soul until you find a crack, and then gently pour your love into that crack."
