On the Contrary

Published by mace011076 under Uncategorized

I can rant and rant and rant some more about my life. But that won’t set things straight.

On the contrary, I know what I should do. Worrying won’t get me nowhere. There are so many things still to be grateful for, and now I decide- yet again- not to let my burdens crush my spirit anymore…

Troubles either make or break you, so they say. And I want them to make me  a better person.  Giving up is the easy way out. Emerging a victor in any difficulty is not an easy feat, but that is what i desire to be when this is through.

Life is a series of ups and downs. What we do with it determines who we are and what will become of us.

And so I declare war to these negative thoughts racing through my mind. I decide to live life to its fullest. I surrender my cares to Him who promised to be faithful to the end…

Tomorrow will bring a brand new day…

Wake Up Call

Published by mace011076 under Uncategorized

Will somebody please wake me up?!

Is this just a nightmare I am going through, a fiction perhaps, or a product of my wild imagination?

I wanna be free- free from all these worries and burdens. I want peace of mind; I want solace from the chaos torturing my very soul…

But how?!

Oh, please wake me up!

Going Nuts

Published by mace011076 under Uncategorized

Life is so hard as it is nowadays… But personal struggles burden the mind and body, even the spirit, more than the toils of everyday life. It’s like going through the eye of a needle… But then actually I’m hard up for words to describe fully my personal journey right now…

How does one get out of a rut he himself has created? How does he start?

When should one acknowledge that he needs help and goes to find it where?  Who does he turn to?

Will prayer alone suffice or does he need to do something? But what does he need to do and how?

Ahhh… I’m going nuts!

I know that there are no hard-and-fast rules in life, no strictly binding and unalterable guidelines to help us get by.

Life is not meant to be endured but to be enjoyed and savored. But by our own doing we often end up living in a rut and dreading life itself…as I do now.

But that should not be. I know life has more to offer than pain and sadness and struggles and tears…

I’m finding my way. In a little while I’m hoping I’ll find my way out.
