An Early Christmas Present

Honestly, I am exhausted. After spending three days with my client, my body seems to give up. I was so tired because I ate a lot..funny..hahahaha... Well, two of our clients from the US visited us to build stronger employer-employee relationship. They also wanted to tell us about their vision for the coming year (2007). We discussed many things about projects, expectations and needed improvements. We also had team-building activities that made my stomach ache due to extensive laughing. We also exchange ideas about culture, values and lifestyles. Overall, it's a successful conference. I gained 3 pounds and I think I looked like 'pot belly' pigs. I was so grateful to the two of them. I thank them for the good food (order all you can), for their kindness and open minds...and most of all for their early Christmas present..... *image is from http://store.apple.com ++what a cute ipod......hehehe

#13 Goodbye My Dragonfly

Fly to your new world Explore the gravity of sharing Now that you're gone My world stopped to sought the sun The garden of my happiness Is now covered with loneliness The apple of my joy All died and has been destroyed No more beauty No more fragrance No more dragonfly To brighten my lonesome paradise Work...It all ends So, I cry in the leaves of the past Don't know where to start Still looking for that dragonfly Goodbye! Goodbye! Heaven declared: John will die, You must say bye to the dragonfly And to the garden who witness all the tears.. ++written for a friend.....

Be... Still... Know

This article is from: Daily Wisdom For everything there is a season. A time to be quiet and a time to speak. Ecclesiastes 3:1-7 I wait quietly before God, for my victory comes from him. Psalm 62:1 (NLT) First it looked sort of foggy. After the sun burned away the mist, we could see the beautiful hot air balloon. I wondered if it was quiet up there in the basket, under the balloon. I've not ever been up in one of those, but when I tried paragliding, the noise of the wind currents surprised me. I had totally expected silence. Quiet. Not an easy thing. A prayer I find myself saying often (maybe too often!) is for my mouth to stay closed at the right times, and not say anything, as well as prayers to say the right thing. It's difficult for me to be still. Period. I'm a fairly active person. If I'm not up and doing something, I am thinking of what I will do when I do get up and going. I was reminded, about two weeks after seeing the hot air balloon, about this bein

Getting Back My Sanity

After 5 days of losing grip to my sanity, I finally have it back in its regular shape. Last week, I was crazily worried with my boyfriend due to the fact that he was stranded in an island because of a typhoon. He was not able to send a message to me and to his family. God only knows how I spent those days, lack of sleep and couldn't eat. Alas! Monday came ad my boyfriend was back..to all my friends, thank you so much for the prayers....i was relieved..so happy...and i'm back to life's track.

Waiting and Worrying

The typhoon "Reming" is on it's second day here in the Philippines. Some provinces were severely affected. Many families evacuated to their corresponding shelters, trees were being uprooted, debris were flying, some people died. But here in Iloilo City, the sun is beaming on us. Today is a bright and sunny holiday (the president declared a holiday in honor of Andres Bonifacio). A day perfect for picnic and swimming. I should celebrate my birthday today because I wasn't able to do it yesterday....but where am I? Here in the office, facing my pc, waiting and worrying. I can't help it. I'm really worried about my boyfriend. I trust God but I can't stop this human nature. He's been out there, stranded in Masbate where PAGASA raised the signal of the typhoon to #2. Gosh, I can't just sit here and wait for nothing. I have not received any text message from him today....Oh know...I don't know what to do....I wasn't able to eat properly and to sle
