What a Life!

It's a another day for me and for other people who are now thinking about their future. I guess everybody have dreams in life. A dream they want to achieve and accomplish. September 28, 2008-the day that I' have been waiting for. It is our Teachers Board Examination Day and I'm quite nervous to what will be the result-either I will pass or I will not make it..

It's a tough situation that I should handle with courage and faith in our Lord, Jesus Christ. I don't know what lies ahead in my future or what it brings me-joy or pain. Of course, if someone will not pass the board or they can't get what they need to achieve.

Everything happens for a reason and I know it. God already arranged our tomorrows and what do we have to do?Trust in His promise. Whatever circumstances that comes in our way, we have to trust and have faith in Him.He never fails. If a person can't get what he wants, God has another plan for him. If I can't get what I want, I know God has something better and wonderful plan in my life. I just have to trust Him. Although its a painful one, I just have to take it and see the brighter side of that situation.

Life is a tough road we ought to face and if it gets tougher, well, you can be tougher by the road itself. Because life is a wonderful thing God has given to us. And problems is just a test paper for Him to see how much have we learned in His lesson called "LIFE".

Well, we have our road to take. It depends on us if we follow the path God tells us to or we make our own path.

Lets just see how far can we go with our destiny.And how far can we trust..God!

God Bless to all of us..

Stay In Touch

In life you have to make the time, to spend with those you love. It only takes a minute... to call, those you're thinking of. I didn't take the time to tell my Father how I felt. I thought, when in the parlor, by the casket, where I knelt.

We loved each other very much, but did not take the time, to stop and say, "I love you," now the guilt I feel is mine. Sitting in the quiet lounge, at the funeral home, sipping at my coffee, thinking I was all alone.

I never even heard the older Gentleman walk in, until he stood beside me and said, "I'm your Father's friend." "Your Dad and I were very close, he called me Crazy Tom." "It was I, who introduced your Father to your Mom."

"I left this town some years ago, when you were just a child." "So, you would not remember me," he said and then he smiled. He said, "Your Father's sudden death, must come as quite a blow." "But, yesterday, he told me something, I think you should know."

"Your Father said, he wished that you and he had stayed in touch." "He told me he was proud of you, and loved you very much." "He was sorry you both parted, and had gone your separate ways." "But, he knew . . . that you would love him, even to his dying day."

He put his arm around me, with a very gentle touch, and said, "I know your Father and he loves you very much." He smiled at me and said, "I must be off to see another." "Oh, by the way, would you say 'Hi' next time you see your Mother?"

As he walked out, I sat and wondered, why he left so soon? Why didn't he, go see my Mother, in the parlor room? He and Dad, talked YESTERDAY, that was a dumb mistake! Because, this is the second day, of my Father's wake.

I went back to the parlor and I sat down by my Mom. I told her I was talking in the lounge with Crazy Tom. She looked at me and suddenly, her eyes were filled with tears, "He was your Father's closest friend, but he's been dead for years."
