Sometimes you just have to feel good on yourself. :)

[jobeecapili]

May mga sitwasyon na hindi ko kontrol. Kaya naman nalulungkot ako. Sabagay, hindi ko na talaga maibabalik ang dating pinagsamahan. Grow up, Jovi. Magmature ka na. Hindi panghabang buhay nandiyan sila sa yo. Matutong maging okay kahit na nag-iisa. Kaya mo maging masaya ng wala sila.

[jobeecapili]

Bakit tuwing night shift k lng? Tulog tuloy ako pg pnpalitan mo dextrose ko. Laging nakaw sandali lang, pg ako'y knukuhanan mo ng BP. Nagtatanong naman ako kaso, ang tipid mo ksing smgot. Pero ok lang. Mabait k naman. ^_^ Sana all around kna lng. Tpos hindi na rin ako nkpgpslamat sa iyo. Night shift k ksi eh. Thank you. :) Sana mameet kitang muli. Pilit kong sinisilip ang pangalan mo. Tlgang hindi ko matandaan. Siguro may mga taong dadaan lamang sa buhay mo, hindi ito magleleave ng mark, hndi rin nmn mlks ang impact. Eto yung mga moments na iaadmire mo lang sila. Tapos pag lumipas na ang panahon makakalimutan mo na rin sila. UNLESS.. kung makita mo uli sila. ** Para kay Nurse ____, mukhang malabo na kahit na sa iisang lugar lang tayo. Kahit mgkita man tayo hndi n rin kta mttndaan.

Do not judge. Do not hate. I am not perfect. Only God knows what I am struggling right now. This is one of my weakest moments. Please. Don't bother. I'm okay.

[jobeecapili]

I don't want to talk about my life anymore. It's much better if I kept my stories to myself. Just me. Don't bother me. I'm okay.

[jobeecapili]

These wounds are self inflicted. Oh no. I did it again.

[jobeecapili]

Yes or No?

[jobeecapili]

I am starting to hate myself.

Some says it's over, you've got to move on. What if I don't? What if I love those hangovers?

[jobeecapili]

Even i am not feeling well (literally) yesterday, this person next to me made my day. (And it's pretty ironic after all these years, i'm still fond of calling her by surname which i think made our friendship more special) #foreverfriends #afteroneyear #lifeafterhighschool

The beauty of singleness (IKDG Chapter 2)

I've remembered the humor created by my brother on his talk on our youth fellowship. It quote, "Life is like a pair of socks. You can't wear it without the other pair. So as the saying, 'No man is an island.' So, no socks is an island." I think most people, regardless of age wants a glimpse of their future partner. Is he tall? Is he godly? Is he the right one for me? Are we compatible? and the questions go on. That is why we do a little experiment called "dating" to try at least if this relationship is effective. Sadly, we end up on short term relationships because the moment we knew that there is something wrong with this relationship, well.. you know what will happen next. On the second chapter of the book I am reading, Joshua Harris tells the seven habits of highly defective dating. I will not discuss everything but I want to emphasize one point he shows. Dating can cause discontentment with God's gift of singleness. Whether you agree or not, we, people are not contented with what we have right now. In terms of power, academic success or status, naturally we want to gain even more especially if we've experienced the benefits of it. What more on relationships? Specifically on dating, it teaches us it is okay to go with the flow. It's like you are on a shoping mall, fitting clothes without any intent to buy it. You have many choices, do pick clothes which you think looks best for you. Yet at the end, you'll end up with nothing. We do have this kind of perception na kapag single, forever alone and boring. There will be times na aasarin ka na ng mga friends mong may boyfriend or girlfriend "Hala ka, baka tumanda kang losyang." In the end, you'll assess yourself 'Oo nga no?' Tapos may peer pressure na yang kasama. God's gift is singleness. Hindi naman sa pagiging anti-relationship pero sa edad kong ito? I don't think ready na ako sa mga ganitong bagay.

Although we don't sin, when we look forward to marriage, we might be guilty of poor stewardship of our singleness when we allow a desire fo something God obviously doesn't have for us yet to rob our ability to enjoy and appreciate what He has given us. Therefore, dahil regalo ito sa atin.. we need to be good stewards and at the same time learn to enjoy it. God wants us to enjoy our lives out of our relationships (romantically speaking). Yung tipong you are fine with or without involvement in relationships (romantically speaking again.)

We don't even need to rush everything pag na kay Lord na ang puso mo nakapreserve na yan.

Darating din tayo dyan, ang mahalaga kasi.. pag in a relationship ka na, be sure na wala kang regrets nung single ka pa.

Smart Love vs. Dumb Love (IKDG Chapter 1)

Smart love is pure and blameless. Dumb love always leave you with a guilt and regret.

Smart love isn't all about the feelings. It's weighing the pros and cons of the decisions after. Dumb love is feeling-oriented. It is impulsive. The important is now and nothing else matters.

Smart love is a long time commitment. Dumb love is just a game. Moving from one person to another.

Smart love says "This is my heart. It is new and it's all for you." Dumb love says "Everything that is left is yours."

Smart love make friends. Dumb love makes potential partners.

Smart love do the will of the Lord before anything else. Dumb love decides based if selfish desires.

With that, I am guilty when it comes to relationship. Though minsan lang ako nakaranas niyan yet I've felt I've been too dumb to act that way.

Dumb love reminds me of my past. Not on the dating part but in making boys my potential partner. I've experienced it and leaves me with such disappointment.

I've realized na marami pa akong hindi nalalaman at natututunan sa love. And how can I grow? Pag nakinig ba ako kay Papa Jack magiging expert na ako, or sabi nila experience is the best teacher so why not try these and that. No. The smartest love is to seek God. Because God is love and He knows the very nature of it. When we focus too much on human relationships, hindi ba nakakasakal? Walang peace at contentment doon. Yet, by seeking the One, He'll let me experience how to love purely and how to wait patiently.

"Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you." Matthew 6:33.

Everything will follows if you do His will. No compromises and bargains and He will give what's the best for you. Especially the right one.

The real question is, are you wise enough to practice smart love or just too blinded to practice dumb love?

Smart love constantly grows and deepens in it's practical knowledge and insight; it opens our eyes to see God's best for our lives, enabling us to be pure and blameless in His sight.
