Today isn't just another Sunday.

Sunday mornings are usually spent with my family and friends. Usually its the routinized schedule of getting up, grabbing a quick breakfast and getting ready for church. Right after church, we usually help out with the weekly collections, in a way its our way of serving and volunteering for that week's mass. Right after everything is settled and in order.. we'd all spend the rest of the day eating brunch, catching up with everything and just practically having a good time.

Although today was different because today is when my sister takes up her board exam for Civil Engineering and so she couldn't attend the mass this week. I prayed that she'd make the cut and pass the exam. I know she's been working really hard to earn  good grades and I also know that she is a bright individual. I sometimes think that she's so much more independent than I am. But then again, we both have completely different personalities and it feels good seeing her grow up and mature.

Also, a childhood friend of mine, Angelica.. whom usually spends the Sundays with us.. is now in Florida for a one-year internship as a culinary arts student.

The two people I am so used to spending my Sundays with not being around, feels sort of odd. I guess the change is for the good. Everyones' lives are evolving and I feel like mine isn't revolving at the same pace. Probably slower. I don't think thats a good thing even. I shouldn't let myself get used to this. Anyways, I guess that's all I have to vent on for now. My mom has a couple of days left until she's off home. I think my dad needs her more than we do, he's been sick for over a week now so please keep him in your prayers.

Have a good weekend.
God bless,
Karen

Today

I am slowly finding things that are inspiring me.
Its still tough to keep out from pessimistic remarks but I don't think there's completely a way to avoid it. I think you just have to find ways to deal with it otherwise, you'll just never get over it. I bought a couple of brewed iced-tea from Army Navy along with two boxes of Que Rida Mia's Baja Chicken. Withing a few minutes everything was gobbled and gone. 

When you have blessings, its best to enjoy it by sharing it amongst others.

Anyways, good day to everyone and hope you all a good start :D
Cheers,
Karen

good sundays are rare

Story of the day..

There once was a poor young boy. He had to sell cookies, door-to-door at a rich village in order to pay for school fees. Sacrificing to carry the heavy load of bags as he stops by each door, determined to sell a box at each property.

One hot sunny day, the boy felt his tummy grumble and was convinced to ask for food on the next house that he stops by. Knock knock knock. Silence. Rustling came from the other end and the door was opened by a young pretty lady with the most contagious smile. The young boy, astounded, became shy all of a sudden and instead of asking for food, ended up asking for a simple cold glass of water.

The young lady, seeing as to how haggard the boy looked, decided to give him a cold glass of milk. With another killer smile.

The boys heart raced and felt his cheeks flustered. Drank up. And thanked the girl for her generosity.

Years has passed, and this same lady got older. Sicker. Weaker. No one in the village could figure out what could cure her. So she was sent to the city, where the finest doctors would be able to treat her. Dr. Hogwarts Kelly heard that a certain lady from a certain village was checked in to the building and he immediately looked over her records. He figured out what illness she had and researched as well was worked hard to solve her case.

She was cured.

Bill payment day came, and it was the day she was dreading. She knew that it would take an entire life savings to get a hold of how she would be able to pay up entirely. When she saw the bill, next to the amount, scribbled words were written on the side, "PAID IN FULL AMOUNT WITH A GLASS OF MILK."

True story.

Just thought I'd share what I got today :)

Happy weekend,
Cheers
