blaaaah

The reason why I dont stop writing on my diary is that I want to evaluate each day; of how I've handled things, or of how I've met few people, or how I reacted to circumstances. It's like for every entry, I should make sure that I have gathered a heart of wisdom, somehow during the day. Because there should be at least one part of the day that made you realize something about life. Having a diary for the purpose of self-evaluation is, for me, a good way to see who you are in the walk of life. Every new day gives different and many opportunities: to read the Bible, to cook for the family, to drive a long way, to give alms, to eat a lot, to watch a movie, to smile and to do things we often do; and all we have to do is take chances and learn..a lot. Because each day is a lesson, and you have it one day at a time and is never again repeated.

Love from Parents



ALWAYS, we find ourselves chasing freedom from our parents' embrace. OFTEN we fail to remember their sacrifices. SOMETIMES, we settle for only receiving their love and not giving what is due them. SELDOM do we appreciate their efforts. BUT have we ever noticed, have we ever understood the value of a parent's love? Have we actually thought that we could NEVER EVER repay them?


ALWAYS, we get lectures out of a parent's concern. Lectures about mistakes, life and how we should live it. OFTEN we see them tired from a day's work. Working hard to get us to prestigious universities. SOMETIMES they get real mad. Mad for always having to tell us to obey. SELDOM they dont understand, because they do, all the time, no matter how disrespectful we might be. These are traits of parents who NEVER fail to believe in us, NEVER stop to love us, and will NEVER EVER leave us.

Yes, our parents are never perfect and there is no way for them to be one; but they got million ways to show us how very fortunate we are to have them.

Ephesians 6:1 "Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right."
