I promised myself to write, even a short thought, after i arrive from Bicol. Unfortunately, I have to do many tasks making all these plans pile up in my mind.And there they stay at the back of my mind.

But looking back at the last few days in my Bicol trip makes me smile.I have visited my father's province for the second time (although not in his hometown, Donsol) and had a great laugh in the process. Hey, it healed a migraine, mind you!

Funny that even if I think I am in the losing process (now, that's something I have to keep for myself) - God just saves the day.

Am now back in Los Baños (and commuting to and from our Cubao office) and HOLDING ON.

I know that God is good no matter what.

when i close my eyes
it will be as still as an ant
walking along its journey

it will not be a battle of less or more
no, it will be the breaking of waves
as it hit shore

my heart will be glad
but it will not skip
like a happy child

the lips shall keep its silence
but a smile will be there
within the center of the soul

i will be engulfed within the truth
i long to behold
and find joy
