One Rainy Day

Thursday, July 10th, 2008

I was forced to have a three,nakakainip rest days. It’s one week na I’m not seeing the road and the busses! Yipeee! for many who knows me but not to me.

The scar in my heart scared my love ones but not me. If there is one word I erradicated in my vocabulary, is the word " surrender" because I believe that everything happens with a reason, and that everything God does is beautiful, and nothing can change that.

As I looked out the terrace of my Badjao house, seeing the sun setting on the west and the lights along the Shell oil ridge, I was reminded that life indeed is beautiful and still I want to spend the day doing my work in the "field" rather than getting home before dark just to rest, watch tv and count my money.

For others, getting sick is "one rainy day", for me it is "one great sunny day!"!

it’s an opportunity to learn newer things. It’s an opportunity to appreciate friends, other people and things I missed looking at. And most of all, it’s an opportunity to talk, listen and appreciate how good God is.
