Life's treasures...

A friend is God's very special gift. Whenever I feel down, I try to take some quiet moments and think about how blessed I really am. Always it happens, that when I try to ponder on all the wonderful things God has blessed me with, my friends are on top of my list. As what a famous adage says "no man is an island." Indeed. I can't imagine how awful life would be not being surrounded by good and genuine people. Good friends are those who you can be with without needing to pretend. There is acceptance, respect, and trust among each one. I am one lucky person for having such a good set of friends. 

With Mark here in our so-called "Royal Couple" picture taken last February 1, 2013 during the CCS Juniors & Seniors Promenade. 

I will be forever grateful for this one special treasure.... 


My co-teachers in the English Department. Some of them I have worked with for 3 years already, and some I just got to know for a year. Regardless of the number years, I am very much certain that the bond that we share is genuine and this special connection we have nurtured for each other will become the sole thread that will continue to tie us and will  bring us back together when fate separates us for a moment. Our individual uniqueness made this friendship extraordinary. God is just so amazing that out of the mundane and simple events in life, He has allowed friendship to grow in our hearts. This friendship will become our stronghold when life's battles seem to knock us down. Thank you God for such a gift! :-) 


simply loving life ;-)

Caught myself reminiscing the wonderful memories I have had in this life. God is too good and generous that He gave me the chance to explore, enjoy, and experience life at its BEST!    


   Life is meant to be enjoyed and lived to its fullest!!

    Resorts World Sentosa Singapore--lining up with 
  other foreign tourists to take a picture of this
gigantic Hot Air Balloon!!!

 
                          Heading quite a narrow cave                                   I took a breather
                               of Resorts World Sentosa 
                                           Singapore

One unforgettable incident that happened in my Singapore trip was when I conquered my fear and took this ride - wheew! It was beyond words. I wish I could go back! 



Really, I can't thank God enough for all these. There will be more adventure, and places to venture in the many years to come by God's providence and grace. Every encounter with an "awe" as I marvel the splendor of God's creations is an encounter with Him- the maker and master of all these!!! To God be the Glory!

to love and be loved...

I heard what you said. I’m not the silly romantic you think. I don’t want the heavens or the shooting stars. I don’t want gemstones or gold. I have those things already. I want…a steady hand. A kind soul. I want to fall asleep, and wake, knowing my heart is safe. I want to love, and be loved.
