Life does not always follow the map we draw

To those who are currently experiencing some difficulties,  allow me to share my thoughts:

Many things come that we neither want or expect.  And many are simply beyond our control.

Much of what we experience now is the result —the summation—  of our past decisions and actions.  Life does not follow a perfect path.

Let’s consider the challenges that come our way, big, small, light, heavy, as temporary setbacks. How we respond to the world, will shape the kind of strength and resilience we will develop in facing real-life challenges.

I truly believe that humans are equipped to eventually figure it out in time.

God gave us wisdom, a fully functioning mind, and a heart that sees beyond what the eyes can see.

I’ve had my own share of wrinkle-producing stresses that make my stomach churn and my body weak.

During crazy moments I would tell myself “ayaw ko na”,  “I am tired.”

But we are stronger than we think.

If the challenge is so great that we physically crumble and down on our knees,  all is not lost.  We do not easily surrender.  We still have our anting-anting from the heavens — our most powerful soul.

Let’s keep our faith.   Kapit lang.

Love always,
