Papa

-
I said to myself. I will be successful, so that I can be a son to my father. Treat him to restaurants, buy him whatever he wants, give him gifts.

But none of those really matters. Nothing will substitute for the real love a father needs. They need no cars or foods in fancy restaurants. They just want their child. To be with them.

I just want to be a son to my father. To make him feel he is my father and I am his son who cares for him.

I just missed my father.

This is Where Our Journey Begins

                 Months ago, I've decided  to write my own book. Then life came. It wasn't kind. There are so much resistance contrast to that dream. I wasn't good at English, my grammar sucks, words were redundant, or you might even encounter wrong spellings of words from my blog posts. (I would love if you'd correct me.) But damn it, I am commited. This might take some time, this might take a lot of work but the weight of my dreams is greater than the hardships I might encounter. It's been decided, I will go through an endless refinement and continous improvement. I will overcome my untrue limitations.                   In order to write this dream book of mine, I had to take it step by step, little by little.                  Back then, I used to journal my memorable days on a worned out pocket notebook that I've bought on a s...

Doing the Work but Not Getting Payed or Any Credit

I am a private school teacher of a quite small institution. And you maybe  guessing it right away, we're quite understaff. And because we lack people to work on a project, as a teacher we are asked to lend some help for some.  As an ICT Teacher, I've been marked as part of called Research and Development Team, but basically it's just a team for marketing and promoting the school. Letting the school be known to others. It's quite a lot of task because the first projects are to create some brochures templates, tarpaulins, video plus a deadline not a strict one but of course put some pressure on the back.   And then questions came to my mind. Will I still do this work if I am not getting paid or won't get any credit from my works? Why does it feels like it is embarrassing to accept this job? Like "Pinapagod mo lamang sarili mo hindi ka naman bayad dyan. G na G ka pa." Why do I think that other people would look at me like, "Why are you so cra...

A Testimony of God's Love.

I am writing this as a testament of God's love for me.           In my previous days of living, I was constantly in a chase. Finding what's the next good thing. What could make my life easier? As if I should be doing something right now. Lavishing myself in spending, shopping, eating outside, and finding happiness in the external world. I never felt fulfilled. There's always something better or greater that I have to chase next.           Not until this night. Praying. Asking God for guidance and assistance. Truly, when you ask as His child, He will respond. His to mine was immediate. A voice called me, Share Jesus today. And I do to my brother. Then the Holy Spirit led me to hug my brother. I was like, Oh Jesus, you're horrible. Why at this hour or time? Then He said to me, “Just follow”, and you will be rewarded. I didn't let the time pass because I know that I may miss the opportunity. I did it.       ...
