INTRODUCING THE GUEST SPEAKER

DHVCAT CHORALLE With Mam Calma

in deep pain...

what happened this day? i just simply cried....a lot. you will really cant imagine how my eyes look right now. i feel empty.. i feel drained... i am really tired.

Maybe... I need rest.

SACRIFICES ...a choice.

Sacrifice comes in many packages. All is done for a purpose. All is given to value a worth. All has a common denominator- choice.

I have given and lost a lot; some with satisfactions and some with regrets. But everything, no matter what, it all started with a choice.

I was blessed with luck during the past years. everything went smooth- career, education, and even luxury. But seems that with eveything given has a synonymous sacrifice. I had a good career but had an empty heart. I had an education and a luxury of things but also had a limited world. Despite all, I know I am lucky compared to others. I know I should be grateful for opportunity comes once. and I was really grateful. But as people say, good things sometimes do not last. Only those who are really meant for you will last.

Now, I have a career but not that satisfying, financially speaking. Maybe enough for me but not for my family. I have my continuing education, and it is still fine now. I have things now but not in luxury. The latter ended when I had made a choice. A choice which they say selfish but I beg to disagree. Nothing is considered when you give yourself a chance to be happy after all you the sacrifices that you have made. With this, some say, I have it, everything was in my hands but I just do not know how to compromise. Maybe yes, maybe no. What I know is that I had made a choice...a sacrifice.

It was a choice which I do not regret. It was a choice that I know something worth-sacrificing. I know it is worthy to have him and it is worth the sacrifice. I lost much things, but I have the best treasure in my life now.

I have faith that God will always support me and always lead me in a way that He knows will be best for me.

The Mirror of Enviousness is the Person Herself

Why is it that there are people who can't satisfy their selves seeing the blessings of others. Why do they want to have what others have? Why do you they need to act as if they are the same person who deserve the same thing? Why do they keep on doing such acts just to have the same privileges as what others get? Why do they keep on acting as if they are tamed cats where they are just mere wild fox?

It irritates me with the thought that even those you call and treat as friends stub you t your back when all you did is to lift them up. It hurts me seeing close friend changed because of the enviousness that she wants to have what I have or wants to receive what I receive. It sucks to see her bitching around just to achieve what she wants. and I simply pity her for all her efforts.

I don't want to react as if I am a wounded person but I just simply don't want the bitterness that she always show whenever I am doing something in relation with things I am into. I don't want to be in detailed that I might reveal the person but I would simply want to express what I feel towards these things.

I keep my patience and understanding and I am even happy whenever she gets her part especially with the things that will benefit her. I am even grateful for that in one way or another I became an instrument for these benefits that she have. Of course, it takes a lot of efforts on her part. All I know the difference between the two of us is that I never cried for me to be helped.

And now I simply pray, may she always be happy with all the things that she does. May she find contentment and find a heart of happiness for the blessings of others rather than be envious. I won't mention name but I know that person knows who she is once she read this without even asking me.
