Graduation Picture

At present. 2011.

2011
I used to have a lean body during college maybe because of the strenuous schedule and nerve wracking requirements. After I graduated, I worked in a call center company and was given the graveyard shift. After a few months, I had problems staying awake at work. There are times I found myself sleeping at my work station so as a solution I ended up eating junk foods just to keep myself awake. Then, the nightmare came. I gained weight. I lost self confidence. I feel like I don’t have the guts to present myself in public. And given my situation before, I find it very difficult to focus on my health. As time passed by, I learn to accept things the way it is though I must admit that I exert efforts to go lose weight. I tried enrolling myself to the gym, it worked but then again due to my inconsistent work schedule and workload, I have problem continuing my program. I also tried playing badminton, but then again, I have to stop because my playmate had family issues and she has to stop. Then I ended up taking whatever pills and teas available. Yes. I became obsessed. I felt that for people to accept me, I have to look good. Not until recently, I had more serious problem aside my weight. One side effect of those pills is loss of appetite. Yes, I can survive a day eating only peanuts and crackers. Or in most cases, whenever I double dose, I don’t eat at all. Because of that, I can feel now that there’s something wrong with my tummy. I stopped and resumed to my normal healthy eating habit. I don’t know what my stupidity and obsession will bring me but I know it has started already. I hope it’s not yet too late. Now I’m planning to try jogging every morning like what I used to do. I have to do this not to look good but to be healthy. I’ve realized that I do not need to be pleasing to the eyes of many so long as I look perfect in the eyes of those people who loves me for who I am and not for what I am.

Say a little Prayer

Image
Last Sunday, I attended our Church’s service. As always, I felt like Ptr. Bong was talking to me. He reminded us that God want us to pray at all times, for in praying we talk to Him. It’s our chance to tell Him whatever we would like to say. And recently, sad to say, I had less time to pray. I am guilty. I feel ashamed. Just like what the Lord told us in Thessalonians 5:16 - 18 16   Rejoice always,   17   pray continually,   18   give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. Regardless if we’re happy, sad, angry, terrified, lost, satisfied or anything, we have to pray. We have to pray to ask for guidance and most importantly, to glorify Him for everything. Starting tonight, I will try my very best to be more prayerful and to spare time for Him.

May oras ka pa ba?

“Anong pinaka sweet na bagay na ginawa ng partner mo sayo?” tanong nya. “Ang hirap isipin. Pero siguro during the time that I was assign sa Cagayan De Oro for a month and sinundan nya ko para samahan for one month.” Ang sagot ko. Bigla akong napaisip. Ano nga ba makakapag pasaya sa isang tao? Paano mo mararamdaman na mahalaga ka? Time. Mahirap ibigay ang oras. Mahirap maglaan ng oras. Bago mo pa maramdaman ang sweetness, ang thoughtfulness at lahat pa ng “ness” you need to spare some time. Mahirap naman magpaka sweet kung wala kang time, diba? Kahit sa phone, in person o sa chat pa yan – it all requires time. Ang pagbibigay mo ng oras sa mga taong mahahalaga sayo only shows kung gano sila kahalaga. Yung mga oras na ginugugol mo sa kanila, pwedeng pwede mo gamitin sa ibang bagay, sa ibang tao, pero mas pinili mo sya. Madalas, sa mga tao ngayon, hindi na napapansin ito. Akala maliit na bagay lang, na simple lang ang oras. Pero kugn tutuusin, halos lahat di pagkaakunawaan pwedeng mag uga
