Crossroads

18 January 2010

I have not written anything for this blog since Christmas, I figure id write something “big” to start the new year… probably write about myself and the year that was [2009]. We’ll, it’s already the 18th of January and still, nada. It seems my creative juices aint pumpin’ yet.


Just so this blog won’t get too stagnant, I bid you all a HAPPY AND MEANINGFUL NEW YEAR! (Better late than never). Forget prosperous, it’s better to be happy, and it’s better to be happy about something meaningful. It seems as we grow older (not that im saying I am old), we tend to find meaning to things we do, even the little ones. It’s like going to the mall to buy something, always thinking “is buying this worthwhile?” and then you end up going home with nothing. We tend to forget that in order for us to know the worth of something, sometimes we have to ‘buy’ it first. I might not be making any sense to you, but that’s 2009 for me.

Tet finds me indecisive AT TIMES. Not that I am, but I tend to be the one who adjusts. Years of adjusting would eventually lead to you, being “indecisive”. I mean, not just to Tet, I adjust to everyone, and everything. I just don’t seem to be the person who imposes (to a certain degree). I don’t know where that would lead me, but just like the old me, come what may - Manalig ka lang.

As for the new me, I have a feeling that I’ll just have stick with the old and improve on some quirks. Besides, who or what I am now is really not that bad, at least for my standards. This year, maybe I’ll just have to drink more water and get out more often. I guess that’s my New Year’s resolution. It’s not much of a list (unlike Roanne’s), but it’s a 1 and 2. This weekend, I’m off to swim in Mt. Pinatubo’s crater! How’s that for a start?! Ow, before I forget .. I really have to add this one: Number 3: Talk more often. You see, I seem to think everybody has ESP. Most of the time it works (hah!), but when it does not, it would be hell to pay. So, might as well talk.

One thing’s for sure though, something big is going to change this year. I just have this feeling that I’ll get into a crossroad before the year ends. “I might not be where I intend to be, but I know that I AM where I am intended to be”. I really can’t remember where I heard or read this quote but I guess this sums me up when it comes to how I ‘plan’ my life. Guess that somehow paints me as a person who believes in destiny, but ironically, I don’t. Go figure.

I go with the flow, but I still paddle.

    May today there be peace within!
    May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
    May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.
    May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.
    May you be confident knowing you are a child of God. Let this presence settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.
    It is there for each and every one of us.
