Push

What drives you?

What gives you a reason to wake up each day?

What is your source of joy?

All it takes is a little push.

To wake up every day even when it feels so dragging.

Push.

To allow you to keep moving on even when the circumstances seem so difficult and overwhelming.

Push.

To give you a smile in your face even when tasks seem daunting.

Push.


I am currently facing a dilemma in terms of my work.

I am getting too comfortable.

Too comfortable in the sense that I am already losing a sense of my identity. Too comfortable that I find myself dragging myself to work each day.

The push is gone. And I have tried so hard to find it again.

It's gone.

Thank God I have not drifted away with it as well.

A push, I have learned, can come in a form of a challenge or challenges that will force you to make necessary changes in able for you to adapt, grow and learn so that you can become a better person. It is not going to be easy though. It will involve risks. Huge risks.

And if you are not willing to take those risks, be assured that your life will forever be a drag. You feel comfortable, but you are never going anywhere.

Tadhana

Madalas nasaktan, minsang nakasakit

Dahil sa isang pangarap na nais makamit

Di na natuto.

Ang tigas ng ulo.

Sinabihan nang huwag,

Pero pinilit at pumalag

Di na natuto.

Ang tigas ng ulo.

Inakala na "siya na", "eto na" "sigurado na"

Pero bigo at nauwi sa wala.

Sinabihan muli na umiwas

Ngunit siya ang laging bulalas.

Di na natuto.

Ang tigas ng ulo.

Ngayo'y may nakita.

Desidido. Sya na nga.

Ngunit di maari.

Iba ang pinili.

Dahil nagmamadali

Muli ay naging sawi.

Di na natuto.

Ang tigas ng ulo.

Ilang beses pang kailangang masaktan

Bago tuluyang may matutunan?

Ngayo'y muling nabigyan nang pagkakataon

Sarili ay magpahinga at huminahon.

Pero minsa'y di maiwasan

Ang siyang inakalang tawag nang tadhana'y muling balikan.

Siya ay handa.

Ikaw ay nagpapahinga.

Landas ba'y muling pagtatagpuin?

O ito'y muling palalampasin?

Come and...get it?

We all have something that we always dream of having. And we will go great heights just to have that or to make it happen. Often, it leads to good results...or so we think it does. Many times in our journey toward what we have been dreaming for, we end up either falling short or making the wrong decisions. Which, at times, leads us to not even reaching close to achieving what we are dreaming of.

What constitutes the wrong decisions that we make? 

Simple.

Impatience.

The journey is a process. And in the process, we gain experiences. And in the experiences, we learn and grow.

Yet, we get too caught up with the dream that we never want to go through that process anymore. We want to get it instantly. No room for waiting, for thinking, for discernment. And in that impulse of immediately chasing after what we have been dreaming of, we feel happy. We feel content. 

Or so we thought we were.

Then we realize one thing: 

...the bliss was just temporary.

It becomes a fleeting moment that just fades away. Then you will feel disappointed. Causing you pain and sometimes...other people as well.

We should've learned by then, right?

Wrong.

One painful and disappointing experience sometimes is never enough for us. We would still keep on taking the quick and easy path to our dreams once we see the opportunity to do so. Waiting is never an option. Instant gratification is.

Instant joy. More disappointment. More heartbreak.

I realized that one has truly learned if he does not commit the same mistakes he has done before. 

This is something all of us should be reminded of.

We all have hopes and dreams. It is part of being human. But not all dreams are given to us in an instant. The fulfilment of our dreams is always something worth waiting for. Just like your favorite food will never be served instantly, so do our dreams. It takes time, it goes through the (painful) process. 

And it is the process that makes it refined and perfect for us.

Dream. Wait. Receive.

You deserve better.

The secret of life is LETTING GO...

Friends, are you still haunted by past pains and experiences?

Is it stopping you from living your life to the fullest?

Friends, life can only be enjoyed to the fullest if we just learn to LET GO...

        ...of bad experiences
               ...of people who put us down
                      ...of trials and difficulties

and LET GOD work His wonders in our lives!

Surrender all to God, and He will do the rest! 

 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” (Matthew 11: 28-30)

The Universe On Its Knees...

Why You Don't Get What You Want: You're CONFLICTED (by Bo Sanchez)

As long as you are clear and you have a well- defined goal or wish in life...

....the universe will conspire and will willingly give that to you!

Prayer of Thanksgiving and Surrender:

Lord, I receive every blessing, every miracle, and every healing that you want to give to me today.  And because of this, I will become a rich blessing to others.

Lord, I surrender my future to You.  I place my entire life into Your hands.

I also surrender my family and friends into Your care, knowing that You love them more than I can ever love them.  I pray all these with a trusting heart, in Jesus name, Amen!
