Thankful for it all
Think today of how good life can be. And you'll see that life's true goodness comes not from what you have, but from how much you value and appreciate it.

There is no end to the possibilities for richness and fulfillment in your life. There is no limit to what you can make of whatever you have.

Consider what you are able to be thankful for, and you'll discover something wonderful and empowering. You can be thankful for it all.

Look back and you'll see that the pleasures and the pains have both pushed you forward and given you countless opportunities for real growth. You've been supported by the good things you do have and inspired to reach for those things you do not yet have.

The triumphs have given you joy and the disappointments have strengthened your determination. All of it has enabled you to more richly fulfill the beautiful, genuine person you are.

Treasure all that is around you, whatever it may be, and open yourself to the positive possibilities. Be truly thankful for it all, and every day is even more rich and fulfilling than the day before.

Daily Rules from God

Daily Rules from God - Appreciate this very much!

Daily Rules from God
1. Wake Up!! Decide to have a good day. "Today is the day the Lord hath made; let us rejoice and be glad in it." Psalms 118:24
2. Dress Up!! The best way to dress up is to put on a smile. A smile is an inexpensive way to improve your looks. "The Lord does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at outward appearance; but the Lord looks at the heart." I Samuel 16:7
3. Shut Up!! Say nice things and learn to listen. God gave us two ears and one mouth, so He must have meant for us to do twice as much listening as talking. "He who guards his lips guards his soul." Proverbs 13:3

4. Stand Up!!... For what you believe in. Stand for something or you will fall for anything.. "Let us not be weary in doing good; for at the proper time, we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good..." Galatians 6:9-10
5. Look Up!!... To the Lord.
"I can do everything through Christ who strengthens me." Phillippians 4:13

6. Reach Up!!... For something higher. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him, And He will direct your path."
Proverbs 3:5-6
7. Lift Up!!... Your Prayers.
"Do not worry about anything; instead PRAY ABOUT EVERYTHING."
Philippians 4:6

An Affair To Remember

After the series of delays, I finally arrived at the venue! I couldn't contain my excitement. I texted my mother that I will not be home until tomorrow as I will go directly to our Reunion. As I approached the crowd, I could see familiar faces, familiar and yet different. I could hear Kenneth (our emcee) saying " Ang bag-o lang kaabot, papulia na lang na!". He's referring to me. I arrived two hours after the event had started. Blame it on my delayed flight and the heavy traffice in Bacolod. Gosh, I wasn't even able to fix myself. I went straight from the airport, dumped my bags to the waiting car that was supposed to bring me home safely and joined the crowd. (I even haven't kissed my son whom I haven't seen for a year) After a few hi's and hello's I went to the stage area to fix the presentation for everybody to watch. I was so tired but not hungry yet, I need some carbo-loading to keep me going so I got some skewers to eat and hurriedly went to the restroom to fix myself. When I got back to the crowd, I was so surprised because there were so many attendees. Thanks to the organizers for the job well done! I was so engrossed in listening to Kenneth as she wittingly spill out her funny antics and occassionally making "okray" everybody including our former teachers. Games and prizes had been given, teachers were asked to give their speech. Michelle and Noel joined us via telecon. Soon, the party is ending. I hardly got any voice left from shouting and laughing. I hopped from one table to another to chat with former classmates. There was a short videoke session but the caterer were starting to gather the chairs and tables and fixing the food area so the session was called to a halt. Reynette was pulled by the naughty boys and poor girl, she was dripping wet all over when she got up from the pool. I promised Ralph that I will drink to death and would stay awake until dawn so I kept my promise. After the pool area has been cleared and some classmates had filled their doggie bags with foods, we retired to the cabbanna. We spent the rest of the night chatting, drinking and recalling the happy days we had in high school. Green jokes had been thrown, intimate things revealed. Gosh! I wish the night would never end. I laughed hard until I almost cried. I was really happy seeing and talking to them again. This was one of the happiest days of my life. And I'm looking forward for another reunion with them. To my dear classmates, thank you for the memories. Asta la vista!
