It's about time

I owe to myself and to the people who truly cares that I take charge of my life.
It is about time that I take my life back
into my own hands and listening to my inner self
instead of relying on others for my future happiness and success.
It is as simple as making healthy positive choices;
may it be mental, emotional or physical.
I admit, I had many negative thoughts that harm my way of thinking.
I don’t know why. Well, maybe because
negative thinking always seems to be so much easier to instill than positive,
whether I care to believe it or not, my feelings and
how I feel or think does have a huge impact on my life.
Affirmations from my friends and relatives
work well in changing my negative thinking into positive.
Those affirmations are simply short statements that I repeat in the mind.
I am learning to put myself up when negative thoughts and feelings enter my mind.
I know that doing this day in and day out,
slowly I will gain control back over my life.
And I will always put in mind what my friend told me.
Everytime I feel nega, say, “Jesus, save me.
Take this matter off my mind and my heart because
I can't rely on my own strength. Ikaw na Lord ang bahala.”

♥♥Our Love♥♥

Our Love
We meet some time ago

We fell so madly in love

A love so strong that would not,

could not ever be broken

We held on through think & thin,

fighting got all that it was worth

Sometimes loosing site of what we were fighting for

Making it harder for us to understand each other

Not wanting to fight anymore became an issue

Giving up ran through our minds, at one point we split

In those few months a part realizing

how miserable we really were

Hating ourselves for ever giving up on each other

Wondering if the other still held love for you

Then came the day we realized where we went wrong

It made our love grow stronger in so many ways

We have grown closer through out the years as we do every day

Every moment we spend together

Making our life even better

Our love will never die

I love you always & forever

know women more

Words Women Use:
Fine:
This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
Five Minutes:
If she is getting dressed, this is half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given 5 more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
Nothing:
This is the calm before the storm. This means "something" and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with "nothing" usually end in "fine".
Go Ahead:
This is a dare, not permission, DON'T DO IT!
Loud Sigh:
Although not actually a word, the loud sigh is often misunderstood by men. A "Loud Sigh" means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over "Nothing".
That's Okay:
This is one of the most dangerous statements that woman can make to a man. "That's Okay" means that she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
Thanks:
This is the least used of all words in the female vocabulary. If a woman is thanking you. Do not question it, just say you're welcome and back out of the room slowly.
BEHIND EVERY SUCCESSFUL WOMAN IS HERSELF. A WOMAN IS LIKE A TEA BAG... YOU DON'T KNOW HOW STRONG SHE IS UNTIL YOU PUT HER IN HOT WATER COFFEE, CHOCOLATE, MEN. SOME THINGS ARE JUST BETTER RICH !!! OF COURSE I DON'T LOOK BUSY... I DID IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME
And last but not least: IF YOU WANT BREAKFAST IN BED, SLEEP IN THE KITCHEN!!

When I Say... I am a Christian

This poem captures a lot of what it means to be a Christian: it is not about being “holier than thou”, but simply recognizing that Man is flawed and needy. This poem helped me identify that I am loved even though I may have sinned.

***Quoted from my friend recent bulletin post.***

When I say... "I am a Christian", I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin."
I'm whispering "I was lost", Now I'm found and forgiven.
When I say..."I am a Christian", I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble, and need CHRIST to be my guide.
When I say... "I am a Christian", I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak, and need HIS strength to carry on.
When I say... "I am a Christian", I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed, and need God to clean my mess.
When I say... "I am a Christian", I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but, God believes I am worth it.
When I say.. "I am a Christian", I still feel the sting of pain,
I have my share of heartaches, So I call upon His name.
When I say... "I am a Christian", I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner, who received God's good grace, somehow.

***I am a Christian by Carol Wimmer (Original Version)***

When I say, "I am a Christian," I'm not shouting, "I've been saved!"
I'm whispering, "I get lost! That's why I chose this way"
When I say, "I am a Christian," I don't speak with human pride
I'm confessing that I stumble-needing God to be my guide
When I say, "I am a Christian," I'm not trying to be strong
I'm professing that I'm weak and pray for strength to carry on
When I say, "I am a Christian," I'm not bragging of success
I'm admitting that I've failed and cannot ever pay the debt
When I say, "I am a Christian," I don't think I know it all
I submit to my confusion asking humbly to be taught
When I say, "I am a Christian," I'm not claiming to be perfect
My flaws are far too visible but God believes I'm worth it
When I say, "I am a Christian," I still feel the sting of pain
I have my share of heartache which is why I seek His name
When I say, "I am a Christian," I do not wish to judge
I have no authority--I only know I'm loved

life according to bill gates

Rule 1: Life is not fair -- get usedto it!
Rule 2: The world won't care aboutyour self-esteem. The world willexpect you to accomplish somethingBEFORE you feel good about yourself.
Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. Youwon't be a vice-president with a carphone until you earn both.
Rule 4: If you think your teacher istough, wait till you get a boss.
Rule 5: Flipping burgers is notbeneath your dignity. YourGrandparents had a different word forburger flipping -- they called itopportunity.
Rule 6: If you mess up, it's not yourparents' fault, so don't whine aboutyour mistakes, learn from them.
Rule 7: Before you were born, yourparents weren't as boring as they arenow. They got that way from payingyour bills, cleaning your clothes andlistening to you talk about how coolyou thought you are. So before yousave the rain forest from theparasites of your parent's generation,try delousing the closet in your ownroom.
Rule 8: Your school may have done awaywith winners and losers, but life HASNOT. In some schools they haveabolished failing grades and they'llgive you as MANY TIMES as you want toget the right answer. This doesn'tbear the slightest resemblance toANYTHING in real life.
Rule 9: Life is not divided intosemesters. You don't get summers offand very few employers are interestedin helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do thaton your own time.
Rule 10: Television is NOT real life.In real life people actually have toleave the coffee shop and go to jobs.
Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances areyou'll end up working for one.

Our Journey

As you journey through,

choose your destinations well ...

but do not hurry there.

You will arrive soon enough ...

wander through the back roads and forgotten paths ...

keeping your destination in your heart like the fixed points of a compass.

Seek out new voices, strange sights and ideas foreign to your own ...

such things are riches for the soul.

and, if upon arrival,

you find that your destination is not exactly as you had dreamed ...

do not be disappointed.

Think of all you would have missed but for the journey there ...

and know that the true worth of your travels lies not in

where you come to be at journey's end ...

But in who you came to be along the way.

But just continue to be strong .. . . and keep moving forward!
I just wanted to let you know that even though it

sometimes seems as if for every step we take forward,

we're pushed back 10... Just stay strong and

we will get where we are destined to be..

And never forget that "What God has for you is for YOU". . .

Continue to trust God... The steps of a good and righteous man are ordered by the Lord . . .

So, Order your steps in His word...
