The year it was...
I've been neglecting my urge to write about a my 2008... reason, la lang Ive been doing this ever since high school and I just wanted to change somethings that I used to do... but to be honest... I really wanted to do it. So here goes...
2008 was a great year... I started my year with a prayer (check out my second blog here at multiply) and I wanted to start my 2009 with one... Although its halfway through January Its never too late to pray right?
but first let me tell you a story...a few days ago I was with Cucci, we're on a boat going to galera... (related story on my Jan 16 blog titled First...) as stated there we had a rough time at sea... scary to be exact. As I mentioned in my blog I have seen the worst before but the feeling of dying was exaggerated during that moment... and so I prayed...
A flash back occurred... 2008 was great year the best actually... I started that year right and I ended the year the best way I could... and now its 09 and I thought maybe I could leave old habits and start new ones... thus I decided not to write any year end blogs. but i guess I was wrong... during the flashbacks I have seen my self starting back at square one... the things that I did to pull myself together... the rocky relationships before... the end of friendships to some and a few family feuds to name a few. I was able to pull myself back to reality during 2008... I was focused.
Cucci and I started during the first month of 08, I was grateful and I will never forget that day...
I was able to fulfill my promise to my mom during the 2th quarter of 08... and it will always be an achievement of mine...
I bonded more with my team and my urge to work harder was multiplied ten folds... and I promise to continue that...
The travels, Adventure that I had with my friends,Family, love ones back in 08... will forever be treasured memories...
and So I prayed... I prayed not for the sea to be calm but for a safe journey... I pray not for my safety but for strenght to overcome any obstacles not only during that moment but for any obstacles that may come my way... I prayed not for my self but for my love ones to move on if the time comes... I prayed... I talked to GOD and said Sorry... I know that I have my own faults and I'm sorry for that... I prayed for forgiveness with out explaining why I did those things, cause I know that although HE will understand God doesn't need it. I prayed and prayed hard... and a sudden calmness envelopes me... not to sound overacting... but I feel that someone is hugging me right there and then... God sent an angel to tell me that we will get through this rough sea... and we did!!!
And so I will keep on praying...
Dear God,
You have given me a great year last 08 and I know that you have plans for me this coming 09, whatever it is I know and believe that you will not give me those trials for me to fail but in fact the other way around... For that I thank YOU...
I Thank YOU for being there... always guiding, Always Loving, and Always caring... let me have the pleasure and honor in sharing your teachings thru my own simple way... make me an instrument in enlightening others... for that I THANK YOU...
Forgive me and those who have sinned... Continue to guide us and help us get through the crisis that we are feeling right now... Continue to illuminate the way... and we promise to follow it no matter how hard it is... For that I thank YOU...
THANK YOU VERY MUCH... for everything and praying for a peaceful 2009 ahead of us.
AMEN.
