Luke 18:15-17

People were also bringing babies to Jesus for him to place his hands on them. When the disciples saw this, they rebuked them. But Jesus called the children to him and said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”

A reminder that we must always have child like faith eager to be with our maker and obeying his Commands

Recent family getaway here in the land down under

[lovefaithandhope]

Hundred islands Ph. Last year was full of lasting memories. I visited hundred islands with my friends around 2015 and 7 years later i came back with my family. It was a great experience being able to tour around the country post pandemic. Hoping to have another trip back home

In this day and age having a companion is awesome. Someone making you feel that you are special and remembered is an awesome feeling. It is something everybody is meant to experience. But what if it is just a sham? What if it is not meant to last? Are you still gonna risk it? Those questions have been pestering me for a while, and how to answer those things is entirely up to us. I remember the last time I went to Sydney on an instantaneous trip during dinner at a Chinese restaurant they gave out fortune cookies and the one that i picked out says somewhat like “choosing to love is a great risk but no choosing love is an even greater risk. So that maybe an answer to those questions, but it still about our choice to love. It may hurt, it could be risky but what can we do it is all part of life and growth.

Takip Silim

Bawat paglubog ng araw ay simbulo ng kabutihan ng Panginoon. Ito ay paalala sa atin na dapat ipagpasalamat ang ano mang natapos natin sa araw na yun at pinapaalalahanan tayo na mag pahinga at itiwala sa Lord and bukas na darating.

Reflection

Have you ever felt that your life is a BIG FAILURE? Seems that every decision you make is about to fail. Na para bang wala kang ginawang tama? Alam mo yung feeling na everything’s just falling apart. 

That is how I’m feeling in the past few days na parang lahat ng decision ko up to this very moment seems like minadali , hindi pinag-isipan. Yung parang because of all the pressures that surrounds me during those times feeling ko I just need to escape and prove to myself that I can make it na kaya ko to. That I must prove to everyone that my decision to leave is the right thing to do. There are times that I look too mighty about myself. Alam mo yung feeling that you are becoming arrogant in your own thoughts. Yung feeling mo sa sarili mo ang galing galing mo that you have everything you needed and you can succeed all on your own.  Napaka arrogante di ba ang yabang nang dating, pero yun yung tumatakbo sa isip ko in past few months. Na dahil I was able to gain what I wanted that soooo Called registration na inabot din ng 2 months bago ko nasilayan. akala ko magiging ok na lahat mas madali na. Pero di pa din pala, at di talaga naging titulado ka lng pero pareho pa din dati wala pa ding ganap. 

That is where all my realizations come to me. I realized myself that I was feeling lost, I felt like I have no direction in my life. seems like I’m in a boat na walang sagwan, nagpapadala na lang sa agos ng kng saan pumaling duon ako. Everything hit me when I had a conversation with my kuya, duon ako natauhan na oo nga no anu ba talagang gusto ko mangyari sa akin? San ba ako patungo? Ano nga bang balak ko sa life ko? yes I have made my decision na sumubok mag abroad for the reason that I want to earn for my family and syempre for my self. Para masunod ko yung luho na gusto ko and stuff. After that convo I felt like nabuhusan ako ng malamig na tubig with ice (ice bucket challenge ang peg). That it made me realize that nothing in life is easy. Wala kang makukuha kng magmamadali ka, walang magandang maiidulot ang madalian. 

As it came to me, I’ve had myself check. Ano nga bang gusto ko? san ba ko patungo? what pathway should I take? all these quesstions came rushing in! ayun di ba super High ng emotions ko super na depress na homesick! nafeel ko n lang I want to go home na sana di pla muna ako umalis kasi ganun din namn nasa Bahay ka or dun sa Bansang target mo ganun din parang walang pinag-kaiba set up lang. Pero one thing na nag hit sa akin during those times of confusion, nung time na gulong gulo ako was there is SOMEBODY na pwede kong lapitan at panghawakan. There is someone bigger na parang nakalimutan ko ata in the past few days. Si GOD, alam mo yung feeling na down na down ka tapos you just CRIED your HEART out to GOD alam mo yung feeling na yun after mo Humagulhol sa Lord biglang gumaan yung pakiramdam. Yung parang everything’s seems alright. I’ve known it all along kung kanino lalapit pero siguro nga kasi tumigas yung heart ko kaya parang ang hirap sa kin na lumapit sa LORD. Pero that very situation is what I needed to go back and have an intimate talk with God. 

After that very emotional convo sa LORD, pinabasa nya sakin yung book of Lamentation. Na dahil sa rebellion at pagkapasaway ng mga Israelites pinaranas sa kanila ang famine ang destructions and lahat na ata ng worst thing that a nation could ever suffer. Sabi pa nga don mas malalala pa dw sa Sodom ang nangyari sa kanila. alam mo yun wow HIT my heart right on the spot. SAPUL o BULLS EYE. Sakit bes sakit tlga sa heart. Pero iba si God talga pagdating sa Chapter 3 begining verse 22 sinabi na “Because of the Lord’s GREAT LOVE we are not consumed, for HIS COMPASSION NEVER FAIL. 23 They are new every morning GREAT IS YOUR FAITHFULNESS.  oh di ba Pak na pak si God iba sya talga sumagot. After reading it I felt comforted, I felt peace back again. alam ko na madami pang struggles ahead of me and madami pa akong kakaharapin. But the thing is God is always there for me and for us. He is there para katagpuin yung needs natin. He is always there waiting for us to call unto HIM and tel HIM Lord di ko na kaya. and yun yung time that God will do great and mighty miracles and wonders. He performs a lot of greater things in the past feeding more than 5,000 men di pa kasama yung women and kids people with just 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish then after Jesus offered and prayed it multiplied and may sumobra pa nga. So when the time comes that you feel down and all lapit ka lang sa LORD iyak ka lng wag ka na mahiya sa LORD. Ibigay mo lahat ng concerns mo sa kanya then let HIM do all the works in your life. and Remember to always communicate with HIM Through prayers and Read HIS promises sa BIBLE, and wait until all of HIS PROMISES are fulfilled. Si GOD na bahala. BASTA magtiwala lang tayo, have FAITH, PRAY, and BELIEVE God can do wonders. 

Kaya LORD kayo na po BAHALA, I Know You have a great plan and all I have to do is Wait and have Faith Believe in what You’ll do and remember all of YOUR promises to me.

For what it’s worth: it’s never too late to be whoever you want to be. I hope you live a life you’re proud of, and if you find you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start over again.

Worst dining experience

This is by far my worst dining experience . Ok lng nmn n isa-isa iserve yung food ang masaklap lng eh matagal ka n nga nag intay. Di pa sila organize yung tipong andami nang nagrereklamo kasi ang tagal iserv ng order tas parang tuliro pa mga staff at pati yung manager. Yah madami nakain ngayon kasi may occassion kaya lang sna mas naging organize sila para naserv ng maaus yung food at lahat eh nakakain ng maayos. Yah i know mainitin ang ulo ko at nadagdagan pa ng walang tulog kaya lang magulo talaga ang service nila. Hopefully they can be a little more calm and collected next time lalo na at kilala silang institution. And sana next tym mas maging maayos ang sistema nila #unsatisfied costumer

If only

If only things can be undone. What's been said could be erased. What happened can be reverted. If and only if. How ever in reality what we do and said can never be erased. There is no delete in life, things only happen once. All we can do is to learn from it and regret what we do and move forward.

My inner child

August 7 was one unforgettable day for me. Coming from graveyard duty having only a couple of hours to sleep that day was one of the best. My friends and decided to make our birthday this year to be different. We chose to celebrate it with a purpose, to share it to others and make other happy. This was a new thing for us to do but it was something that i would love to do again.

[lovefaithandhope]

I never expect to start may day like that. You never really know accidents do happen. Ung tipong sasakay ka lng sa jeep biglang di mo inaasahan matatapilok ka na lng. Lagi nmn ako dun nadaan pag tinamaan ka nga nmn ng kamalasan. Kamusta namn iyon pababa lng sna ako ng ayos biglang may sira pala yung binabaan ko nasprain tuloy at puro gasgas sa tuhod.

May bagong unforgettable experience sakit ang dinulot hahaha. Nkahugit pa dahil sa sakit tandaan masakit mahulog lalo't walang sasalo sayu pede ka magkagalos o ma sprain. Hahaha

But why???😔

There's a lot of sentiments going on with regards to the Comprehensive Nursing Law being vetoed by our outgoing president. Personally as a nurse i've had my own sentiments as well. I cannot deny the fact that I am very much disappointed not only because P-Noy didn't sign the bill but because of His rationalization. The reason he gave is just unreasonable on my point of view. Let me tell my own personal experience. Before i became an RN i studied for 4!years in nursing school and i can say that the amount our parents spend is a big amount of money. We paid thousands of pesos just to be able to train to hospitals to earn experience. Then after that we need to take the board exam to earn our license. Woah almost five years of study before we can be called registered nurse. Indeed it a great honor to be called a nurse, our ideals like florence nightingale to give the patients optimum care despite the circumstances. After passing the boards i taught everything will be easy but i was wrong we are exploited! At first for me it was ok because i believe i need to earn experience first. So i volunteered to gain experience and with the mindset that i will be hired after rendering voluntary service. But after almost half a year of training what did i get nothing but disappointment because of the government system we have. "Pag wala kang backer di ka makakapasok sa government hospital" oh di ba ang fair ng system ayus no, healthcare mismo napopolitika. But i never gave up i still tried everything to be employed in a govt hospital for a better salary. But i guess it wasn't meant to be. So i applied to private institution indeed there is continuos hiring i got in but as expected the salary we receive is just minimum. Not enough compensation for all the duties and responsibilities we have. 8 hours of taking care for our patients, 8 hours of skipping meals just to ensure that our patients receive their feeding right on time. 8 hours of holding our bladder just to ensure that we accurately measure your urine output and drain your urine bag. Every sacrifice we do is part of our job our chosen profession and i am not saying all this to get recognized but for our profession not to be neglected and exploited. Nurses here in the phils suffer a lot, let us not allow this to continue because if this happen nurses have no other option but to go abroad to earn enough to give a decent life for their own families. #NARS #PHRN #onlysapinas #justicefornurses
