PERSONAL REFLECTION


 For your personal reflection this Lenten Season I brought to life this quotation taken from the Soul-Mate.
     
"It’s not what happens in life that determines your circumstances and where you are now. Bad things happen to all of us. What matters is the actions you take - blaming others for your misfortunes, will keep you in misery. Be responsible for your life; think how to change the situation to benefit you. It’s the first step to climbing out of that hole into a much brighter future" 

The first sentence from this quotation says, "It is not what happens in life that determines your circumstances and where are you now."  I totally agree with this, and yes all sort of bad things happens to us but what is important as the Soul-mate says is the action you take that will determine where you are at right now.

Blaming others for our misfortunes  is not the right thing to do and keeping that in your heart for a longer period of time will leads to further misery.


Yes, someone might hurt us, may cause us to stumble and fall or put us into a deep hole but it is our course of action that will change the situation.


We are responsible for our own life and no one cares so much about you except you. Think on how to change your situation to benefit you.


God gave us courage and determination, faith and strength as our weapons against all odds. Instead of blaming others use these weapons and your situation for your personal advantage.


God Bless!

STATUE OF DIVINE MERCY

THIS GIGANTIC STATUE OF THE DIVINE MERCY MEASURED 50 FEET HIGH PERHAPS THE MOST REMARKABLE MONUMENT IN MINDANAO. IT IS SITUATED IN EL SALVADOR CITY,  AND IT WAS NAMED AFTER THE SAVIOR OF THE WORLD, JESUS CHRIST. THE STAIRWAY IS MUCH HIGHER THAN THAT OF MRT. THOSE WHO HAVE HEALTH CONDITION ARE ADVISED TO STAY ON THE GROUND. TOURISTS AND OTHER VISITORS ARE ADVISED TO OBSERVED PROPER DECORUM SINCE THE ENTIRE PLACE IS SACRED. THOUGH I AM A REFORMED CATHOLIC, VISITING THE PLACE IS A RARE EXPERIENCE  AND I WAS AMAZED TO SEE HOW PEOPLE STRIVE TO CREATE ENORMOUS STATUE LIKE THIS. PILGRIMS FROM DIFFERENT PARTS OF ARCHIPELAGO FLOCKED TOGETHER TO SEE THIS WONDERFUL PLACE.  I AM A STRONG BELIEVER THAT PEOPLE'S FAITH CREATED THIS PLACE. THEIR FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST WORKS WONDER FOR THEM RECEIVING POSITIVE ANSWERS TO WHAT THEY WISH FOR.

FOR QUIET SOMETIME, THE WANDERING BLOGGER SEEMS INACTIVE IN WRITING FOR ONE REASON, NOT BECAUSE HE RUNS OUT OF IDEAS BUT MAINLY BECAUSE OF THIS STRANGE FEELING THAT I DO NOT WANT TO WRITE AT ALL.  I NEED TO MOTIVATE MYSELF TO FIGHT THIS STRANGE FEELING WITHIN ME AND CONVINCE MYSELF THAT I NEED TO WRITE AGAIN. I BELIEVE MY READERS ARE VERY EAGER ANTICIPATING MY NEXT ARTICLE.. CLIMATE CHANGE IS A BY-WORD NOW AND ECO-WARRIORS WAS BORN TO RESTORE THE FAST DETERIORATING PLANET EARTH.
