Let Me (999 Wonders)

I wonder how you sleep.
With all the traffic in your head
And the crossroads in your heart
The choices you’ve made
Thinking there is no turning back
The difference we thought we needed
All for the glory of now
Not for the long run

I wonder how you breathe.
With all this scarcity of love
This fake world we’re living
Time wasted on wrong reasons
Everything jaded
Then you crumble

I wonder how you weep.
Does the leak make things softer?
How much heavier can you go on?
Does the world really care?
You wonder
If ever you could go back
When will you start?

I want you to remember
I want you to break free!
I want you…to get over
Wonder how beautiful you can be
Now lay it down…
I’ll always be with you
Here and now
I’ll pull you high enough

Be your savior!
Be your saviour!
I will be
You’ve been my savior…
Will not fail this time

Pray it Works

When you have done all you can do and there is nothing else left turn it over to God and open your ears and listen.

200 Pesos

I remember Mike, talking in front of 100 people, a couple of years ago, started off his seminar by holding up a Php200 bill. In the room he asked. "Who would like this Php200 bill?" Hands started going up. Of course, I raised mine. He said, "I am going to give this Php200 bill to one of you" Then crumpled the 200 bill. I was surprised he did that. He then asked. "Who still wants it?" Still the hands were up in the air and again, I raised mine. "Well," he replied, "what if I do this?" He dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his black shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty. "Now, who still wants it?" Still the hands went into the air and still, I wanted to get the Php200 bill. "Folks, you have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease it's value. It was still worth Php200. Many times in our lives, we ...

Be Grateful

Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift. When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives. Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trails to make you strong, enough sorrow to k...
