Say GRIN!

hi there lovely folks! Merrrrry Christmas in arriars!!! I wonder if any of you have added as much weight as i have...

Right, this period's been busy (like du-uh), and fun and i honestly ALMOST forgot how it feels to have your whole family around you...well, it's pretty darn amazing i'll tell you that! :D

Now, in spite of all the wonderful things that are bound to happen this season, and they DO happen actually; there are still incidents that often threaten to remove 'em grins from our faces. They could come in the news, through phone calls, or you might even witness a terrible thing or two (i'm talking from experience here, just in case you didn't guess ;) ). But, we really should not let one bad thing over shadow all the great things we have to be thankful for. At least i know I won't! So no matter what happens...keep them whites out okay? :)

Have a blessed season, xxx

In and Out of Season


Hi wonderful people! Hope you're all basking in the joy of the season and spreading love and goodwill to any and everyone! Oh, and if you're not..get busy you! lolz. Well, Christmas eve seems to have just kinda snuck up on me though, i really am not quite ready for it...there's gazillions to do, and absolutely no time; (But that's partly because i've wasted a good amount of it lately...sad, i know.) it's almost dizzying really.

To make matters worse, i've still got that thing we call school to think about with our exams coming up and all. Y'know it's really amazing how they (school authorities) always come up with the most ingenuous ways to semi-ruin one's holiday. -_- Then there are the generally excessive activities that this season is usually accompanied with; e.g the usual hosting get togethers-visiting-Christmas shopping-then-repeat cycle kind of 'activities'. ^_^

It can all be insane fun sometimes (or in the cases of a few, dreadfully boring ;) ) but we have to take care not to get completely immersed in and swallowed up by all the 'busyness', fun and bountiful food...despite how easy it is to. Be reminded that the reason we even HAVE a Christmas day to celebrate, is because love came down to let us live in the form of Jesus Christ, and if He could love us (we who make ourselves extremely easy to hate by the way) then we must keep at the forefront of our minds that we OWE that same kind of love to each and every person we come in contact with...both in this season and out of it. :)
Have an amazing Christmas celebration people, full of laughter, fun, food ;)...and love. xxx

Feelings aside...


Hi people, how's it been? Sorry, it's been awhile...had a pretty busy month (last month i mean, ^_^ ). This month, on the other hand, has been more of bitter/sweet than anything else, or should i say some events that occurred this month are sadness provoking???...whatever really :p.

Anyways, i lost a very dear friend on the 14th and it bruised me badly...at first. I was very willing to give into the anger, pain and overwhelming sadness that wanted to envelope me, in fact, i kinda DID give in for a short while, till i realized that over prolonged mourning for my darling friend and questioning God in anger...was and IS NOT the answer. Doing that would only please the devil, and that isn't my area of expertise ;), so here's what i've learnt; when we're hit hard with very unexpected and unpleasant occurrences or circumstances, be them humiliating, painful, tragic or whatever, the more we focus on the hurt and the negative aspects of the situation, the larger and more intense it becomes. God never said we wouldn't experience pain or terrible events...He DID promise however, to be right there to help us through them.

My comfort and peace lie in the fact that i KNOW for certain where my buddy is. He made no attempt to hide his passion for JESUS and THAT is what made his departure worth mourning, his life worth living and his name worth remembering. He has accomplished his mission...i only pray we all stay focused on the master's plan for our own lives and fulfill ours as well.

This might not be the most exciting of posts, but i'm far from sad. He's in the best place in existence, i thank God for the blessing he was and i hope this inspires everyone reading, as it has me, to take life and what we do with it very seriously...because believe it or not, the journey doesn't end here..and i BETTER be seeing ya'll UP there on the other side. O:) Take care of you folks.
