Day 55 - Thank You for the Sun

I thank God for giving us the Sun. The Sun provides warm and heat that we need to be healthy and strong. The sun also gives light to us. The sun has also been our life support here on earth. The sun provides also all the needed nourishments of plant and animals. I believe that God created Sun as a symbol of His unwavering light and support to us. It is a symbol of light through our darkness and support through our weaknesses. For me, Sun symbolizes God in His great show of love to us.

Thank You Lord!

Day 54 - Thank you for the air we breathe

I thank God for the air we breathe. As we, humans really need air in our life. Air is our life support in this world. And clean air is like heaven to us. Air is one of our most needed things in this world to survive. Without air, nothing, not even plants and animals can survive without it. That’s why I thank God for giving us air to breathe and enjoy. And take note, God gave it for free. I don’t know what will happen to us if we need to buy air. Maybe earth is so dull and only few lucky people will be here. But because God loves us very much, all we need, He provides for FREE!

Thank you Lord!

Day 53 - Thank you for Ash Wednesday

I thank God for Ash Wednesday as Ash Wednesday is a day of repentance and its mark the beginning of lent. I thank God for allowing us to observe this important occasion in a Muslim country like United Arab Emirates.

On this day, I see a lot of Christians, Filipino and non-Filipinos go to church, attend mass and everyone was excited to have a cross of ashes on their forehead. I am very happy to observe each and everyone so excited to have this mark and I believe that each one of us are also excited to the responsibilities attached with this mark. I believe that we are all excited to fast from food and all negative emotions in this lent. I believe that all of us are excited to have closer relationship with God, to know Him more and love Him more this season. I hope that this yearning in our hearts will continue throughout the years. I always believe in the goodness of everyone’s heart and I know God will be happy to know that we are all excited to follow His will for us.

Thank you Lord!

Day 52 - Thank you for Weariness

Thank You Lord for allowing me to feel tired!

I thank God for allowing me to feel weary. It’s my sign for me that I am still alive. There were times when I just feel like I’m just here but I won’t be able to feel tired in anything and everything that I do. I just exist without minding anybody. There were times when I can just do anything, thinking nothing about them and just go on with it without any feelings of tiredness. But now, I realize that it wasn’t just that I don’t feel tired but because I don’t feel weary because I am weary all along and sometimes not seem to care at all. Weariness is a sign for me that I can already feel alive nowadays that’s why I feel weary. For me, weariness means that I am alive and that I am still fighting despite all the problems in my life. Weariness for me is a sign of hope, a sign of a future that was beyond my imagination. It is a sign for me that life is worth living. It is a sign for me that I don’t have to feel weary all along because God is with me and fighting my battles especially when I feel tired and hopeless. And fighting weariness in life makes me stronger and hopeful in life.

Thank you Lord!

Day 51 – Thank you for Alarm Clock

I thank God for allowing us to have alarm clock. As sleeping is really one of my hobby, waking up on time is a problem for me. I’m glad that man invents alarm clock. My alarm clock is just the one on the phone. And it is easier cause I only have to set it once and set the days it will go and it automatically buzz me on that days and time. Alarm clock never fails to buzz me except when my phone has no battery. I also use alarm clock to remind me of any important meetings I have. I just have to set the time and try hard to remember why I set my alarm on that time. It’s fun! Because I always tend to forget something and this kind of thinking what I forget makes me happy. It’s some kind of exercise for my brain.

Thank you Lord!

Day 50 – Thank you for Extra Biscuits

I thank God for the extra biscuits!

As I was very excited on buying biscuits for the event, I realize that I bought too many biscuits for the participants. I bought two big plastic of biscuits! How about that? I didn’t realize that it was too many until I reach home. So what did I do? I get each kind of biscuits and left them at home. Even when I do this, there’s still more biscuits left but it’s ok, they can use them on the next event. And do you know what I do to the biscuits that were left for me? Of course, I didn’t eat them all! What do you think of me? Though I like food, I know to myself that the biscuits left are too much for me. So what I did is give each housemate one or two kinds of biscuits for their snacks.  I am so happy that I am able to share to them and to the community even through this simple act. I am happy that when I buy too many biscuits, maybe unconsciously, I was thinking about them. As for me, my reason for buying those many biscuits is that, I, myself don’t want to get hungry. For me, it’s better that there’s too much bread than too little bread. After all, that was an all day event so I don’t want my brothers and sisters in the community to get hungry. And indeed, God provides food for us and we have still some extra and able to share to our other brothers and sisters outside the community.

Thank you Lord!

Day 49 – Thank you for the feeling of being alone

I thank God for my feeling of being alone.

As our most awaited event comes to pass, I don’t know why I felt so alone. I already accept the fact that my household nanay and sisters were not there to support me though I am glad that one of my ate shows up on the second event. I already accept also that maybe, I can be part of my other group mates circle of family because like me, their nanay was not there but at least they have each other. I already accept also that I need to do what was expected of me to do on this event and then I can move on. But what really hurts me, I still come home alone after this event and I don’t know who I can say goodbye to. All of them come home together but me, I just walk alone and I really felt pity to myself. I know I shouldn’t feel like that after the event but it really hurts that I was almost crying while walking and convincing myself that it was all okay, that I know, somehow, I gained friends doing this service. I just say to myself that I do this service for God and not for other people, which I don’t need to expect any appreciation from others because God’s appreciation for me is enough. But it really hurts… I have my cousin who attends the event but she also goes home with one of her sister in the community. I don’t hold it to her because I know she do that because she doesn’t have a choice because I want to stay late to see that everything’s okay. But what really hurts was even my teammates were not there and I can’t even say goodbye to them, that I was just looking to them, gathering my courage to say goodbye but they never noticed me at all so I just walk away and move on. I don’t need any appreciation but a simple goodbye for me would be sufficed enough because I thought that we were friends but maybe I expect too much. And this feeling of being alone makes me evaluate myself and think what’s wrong with me. Why doesn’t anyone like me besides my household? Maybe I’m just expecting too much recognition and God teaches me to be humble. And I thank God for that feeling. I thank God for all the lessons He teaches me when he called me to serve.

Really, God has wonderful plans for me and He will use anything to mold me to be a better person. Thank You Lord!

Day 48 – Thank you for another successful event

I thank God for another successful event as this Friday is the day where all are preparations take effect as this Friday was our main event day. I thank God for allowing us all to have a good nights’ rest and allowing all of us, service team and participants to come early on the event and be happy to be with each other’s company. There are only some minor problems but God takes them all away almost immediately and even though there are pressure, its ok for me because I really love to be of service to my sisters and brothers.

All of the service team arrived at the venue early. We prepare and arrange the room according to our preference and we all excitedly wait for our participants. I am very happy because on this day, one thing I witness is the big heart of my sisters and brothers. That they are all willing to share their 3Ts in the community: their time, talent and treasure. I can see the happiness they have on sharing their blessings with each other. What I most really loved on this gathering is the feeling of being with my family. The feeling that the community accepts me as part of them. The feeling that God is with us throughout the event and He is blessing each and every one of us, I am thankful for that. This kind of event makes me feel important and good. In this kind of event, I can easily convince myself that I am good.

Thank you Lord!

Day 47 – Thank you Lord for the Extra Hand

As my whole attention now is focus on serving the community and do what was assigned to me by my brother and sister in the Singles for Christ community, my sister in SFC and I decided to make something special for all the participants. We decided to make a sandwich for our brothers and sisters in the community. After all, this chance only happens once in our life so we take it. We happily make the sandwich for them. Shopping for all the needed ingredients for our little tokens and makes them ourselves. It’s already past 10 pm when we finish the spread and start putting them on the sandwich and I thank all my housemates because they help us and take charge so we can have faster process and be able to finish at 12 midnight. It’s really nice to have this bonding moments with my housemates and me thank God for sending those extra to help us finish our task.

I really believe that God always sends the right people to help us when we are in need especially when we are doing everything for Him.

Thank You Lord!

Day 46 - Thank you for giving me early hour out work

Thank you Lord for my Work which offers early hour out.

 I thank God for my work which has its early hour out. I can always use those times most often than not on my cooking activities but this these past few days, I can really devote the use of this early out to accomplish checking for grocery prices. As I am part of the team to secure all the participants food for the upcoming event, budget is always tight so I make a note where we can buy an item on their cheapest value. I am always glad to do this work. It’s not only that I feel doing it for others but most especially, I do it for God and I always feel His presence and protection in my life. I really believe that when we do our works for God, He will always be there for us and will never ever let go of us.

Thank you Lord!

Day 45 - Thank you for Valentine’s Day

Thank you Lord for Valentine’s Day

I thank God for the Hearts Day. This day is just another day for me. For me, it’s another day to love, to help, to serve. I know it was special to those who already have their God’s gift in life but for a single person like me, Valentine’s Day is just another normal day. Do you know what makes it special for me? It was the joyous face of my housemates and friends. I’m really happy for them that they are happy with the one they chose and with the one that God gave to them. I am happy seeing those flowers and chocolates that they give with each other. I am happy that they make extra effort to make each other happy. That makes me happy for them.

For me, I just go to work, greet my friends and enjoy my quite time again on the house. I enjoy watching “The Matrix Revolution” on television and I enjoy the flower and balloons given by my housemates. On this day, I don’t feel alone as I have my friends with me and I know that all of us are enjoying each other company.

I thank God for this occasion because it makes my friends and families happy and for them for making the extra effort to make their partner happy.

Thank You Lord!

Day 44 - Thank you for gift of Walking

Thank you Lord for gift of Walking!

I thank God for His gift of Walking. As I am a person who easily gets dizzy, walking is my preferred way of travel. It is better for me to walk than to take a cab at all. On those frequent times that we chose to take a cab, I always end up on my bed after the ride or I am on the bathroom and do some throwing up and it’s not a good feeling at all. That’s why when we chose to go out, I always said to my friends before hand, that if it’s ok for us to walk our way especially if we just want to go in the nearest mall or park.

I really love walking. I love feeling the air on my face and my hair. I really love the scent of cold air. I know walking becomes hard to others when it was hot but for me its fine and I enjoy it more. One of the reasons for that I don’t perspire easily. It’s like we already walk a mile and my companions are already drench in sweat even they have towels but for me, it was just a moist on my forehead. No sweat at all. Even if I drink too much water, sweating is an elusive phenomenon to me. I can go on for miles without sweating but I am already panting and feeling tired. Sometimes, I thought that there was something abnormal about me but as long as I don’t feel any pain or changes in my body, going to the doctor was out of my agenda.

Thank you God for allowing me to walk and to enjoy your creation specially here in the place where you sent me where I can see flowers everywhere especially if it’s their season, and to feel the breeze of air just like your kiss from heaven. Thank you Lord!

Day 43 - Thank You Lord! My Laptop is Back!

Thank You Lord! My Laptop is Back!

I thank God for my laptop. It’s already back from the service center. After over two weeks of going on without laptop, I really miss it. By the way, its name is “Tosh”. I am really thankful for those who change my screen as they say that the problem with my laptop before is dead pixel. Actually, I endure that one straight line for a month because I believe that it will be gone after a month as what happen to one post that I read about this problem but it seems that they have different problem than mine. So after a month of waiting for it to disappear, and sadly it didn’t happen, and after searching for the receipt for about a week because I am such a forgetful person but I found it eventually, thanks God, I have no choice but to return my notebook to where I bought it and let them fix the problem. And I’m really missing my laptop since then but one thing I was certain, I still enjoy myself even without the laptop and I thank God for providing me those entertainment and those silent moments with myself, my friends and housemates. I’m really glad for those moments.

Thank You Lord for bringing my laptop back as good as new without having to reinstall all my applications. They just really change the screen but did not reformat my laptop as I was afraid of. Even my friends told me to back up all my files because they sometimes delete all my installed programs and just make it good as new but I’m glad that that was not the case for me.

Thank you Lord!

Day 42 - Thank you for Movie Time

Thank you Lord for Movie Time

I thank God for the Movie Time on the House. As Saturday is a rest day and my housemates and I don’t want to go out, we decided to have movie time on the house. It’s not too long; it’s just one movie because all of us have to do something for the coming work week so we just decided to watch one movie together. We decided to watch a very new one, “Transformers 2: Rise of the Fallen”. A really new one for all of us as we don’t have much time watching movies so we only watch it now when Transformers 3 is already out. We want to watch Transformers 3 also but we don’t have a copy of this movie so we just decided to eat and sleep early as work was already on its way.

I thank God for these simple moments that I can interact and be with my housemates. God knows how busy we are that we just say hello to each other every morning but we forget the fun we got from just being able to talk with each other.

Thank You Lord!

Day 41 - Thank You for Singles fo Christ Events

Thank You Lord for all the Singles for Christ Events! 

I thank God for Singles for Christ Events

I thank God for all the Events sponsored by Singles for Christ community. Because of all the seminars and talks sponsored by SFC, I am able to hear God’s message. These events also help me strengthen my faith to God, in all His wonderful plans in store for me. Through these events also, I met people who are also testaments of God’s wonderful love for me. In this community, I feel important and I feel really glad to be here. There are many things I learned through this community. And one thing I was really glad is I found a family in the community with my household as its best. I also met other people. In this community, I believe that everybody can accept me as I am. Though I know that there was no perfect group no matter how hard I believe it, I still believe that the SFC community is worth believing in with all its flows. What matters most is that I am happy to be part of this community and I am happy to serve God. I always believe that it is one way of serving God and no matter what other people say, all of it comes down with my personal relationship to our Creator.

Thank you Lord!

Day 40 - Thank you for the Successful Event

Thank you Lord for the Covenant Orientation Event!

I thank God for the successful Covenant Orientation last week. I am part of the service team and I really feel the pressure it takes especially to the Team Leaders of the event. I really feel their stress and their hope for the event to be successful as I am feeling them myself. I am not sure if what I feel is what they feel but I am sure what I am feeling.

As I am a great worrier, I thought that there were few people who will attend because the event takes place when all the participants have work. So when I came at the venue on the proper time though I am a little late for the specified time that the team will come, I feel sad that there was just small number of people. But as time goes on, more and more participants came and I really feel glad. And I felt a little ashamed as I know that in those times that I worried, I lost my faith to God. And I feel really sorry for myself because I know that God will never fail us and yet, I worried unnecessarily. But I’m glad that God made that event successful. And I believe that everybody were happy on the outcome of the event. I really honored those who attend and make extra effort to be there because I know that for them, it is better to stay home and rest after a weeks’ work but still they chose to come and be part of the Covenant Orientation and help them understand the importance and the value and responsibilities we have for being a part of the Singles for Christ community.

Thank You Lord!

Day 39 - Thank You for the feeling of Loneliness

Thank You Lord for the feeling of Loneliness!

I thank God for making me feel lonely today. I don’t know what are the reasons behind this. It’s just that when I woke up this morning, I really feel sad and my body feels heavy even when I was not sick. It’s just that I go on and do what I usually do but the feeling of sadness was still there and I can’t seem to shake it off. I can pretend to other people that I was okay. I still talk with my bus mates and share some stories but when I get here at the office, there’s an urge for me to cry. I really feel so alone. I really feel that no one can see me. That the world will not even notice it when I’m gone. These are the feelings that going on me through this day. So I make myself listen to Christian songs to lift up my spirit. Somehow, it helps me. That’s one thing I love about listening to Christian music, they really makes me feel loved and special.  My feeling of loneliness was also eased by my team mates in the service team for the Covenant Orientation. With their emails, I feel that I can do something, somehow and I really thank God for giving them to me in this point of my life. This feeling also helps me decide to be the best that I can be and to do everything in my power to make me feel that I matter, somehow. Even not to the world but to somebody’s world and to find my place under the sun. That wonderful place where God want me to go. And I thank God because I know that He is using all my senses and experience and problems and feelings to help me became prepared for that wonderful future He planned for me.  And this feeling of loneliness and sadness are always welcome to my life even sometimes, I don’t know what to do with them. I just told to myself that God has a wonderful plan for me and I really thank God for that.

Thank you Lord!

Day 38 - Thank you for the Washing Machine

Thank you Lord for the Washing Machine!

I thank God for allowing us to invent washing machine. In our busy world today, washing machine brings comfort to every one of us. I remember when I was still a child; we used to wash our clothes by hand. I still hand wash some of my clothes, especially the delicate ones but it was not like before where I hand wash even bed sheets and towels. I enjoy those moments with my parents but today, when I became part of the workforce, washing my clothes using hands become tiresome. I’m not really sure how I get tired working when I am just sitting and staring at the computer but I really feel tired when I reached home so using washing machine especially an automatic one feels great.

I only wash my clothes once a week and I make a point of putting them only on two sets. I was really careful separating light colored dress and dark color ones.  The only problem in this is the clothes became faded easily and sometimes the color change. But all in all it was a good thing because I only put my clothes in the machine, put detergent and fabric softener and after an hour, I can already hang them to dry. I just get them the next day for folding and ironing. Awesome!

Thank you God!

Day 37 - Thank you for the Fireworks

Thank you Lord for the Fireworks!

I thank God for allowing me to enjoy fireworks display. I really love fireworks with all their colours and shapes and sounds, with all the beauty they shed on the night sky no matter how brief or long they are. I really love fireworks even when I was still a child. That’s one thing I missed at home. But there was still fireworks display here in Dubai especially when there was an occasion like the opening of Burj Khalifa. But last Sunday, the fireworks display was for the end of Dubai Shopping Festival.

Dubai Shopping Festival takes place every winter with its array of discounts, competitions, prizes, fireworks and entertainment. Dubai Shopping Festival offers amazing shopping discounts, attracting holiday makers from around the globe keen on grabbing a bargain. It is one season here in Dubai that I am really excited. Not only with all the bargains and discounts but mainly because of the fireworks. And since it was the last day of DSF last Sunday, me and my housemate set to watch it. We went to Baniyas, on the water taxi station and wait for the fireworks display. It was a cold night and we were walking on a windy environment. But all our shivering was worth it when we see the fireworks display. The fireworks literally came before our eyes and over our head. My neck hurts trying to see them all. And fireworks really bring smile and amazement to me. I am really amazed with all its colours and shapes wondering how the makers of the fireworks make them like that. I really love it. And I was contented even I only watched them no longer than 4 minutes and watched them once a year. For me, that’s enough.

Thank you God for allowing me to enjoy the fireworks with all their colours and shapes. And thank you for allowing me to watch it with other people whom I know, also loved your wonderful creation.

Thank you God!

Day 36 - Thank you for the Gift of Service

Thank you Lord for the Gift of Service!

I thank God for calling me to serve in the Singles for Christ community by allowing me to be chosen as part of the Service team for the Covenant Orientation. I was part of the food committee and I am glad because as you know, I really love food and eating. And I also don’t want the participants(my brothers and sisters in Christ) to be hungry so I am doing my best to find a good food in low amount as the community is the one who is giving the budget.

I am very happy and honored to be chosen to be part of the service team. I know to myself that I am not that active in attending all the events that was organized by the community but I really want others to experience what I have upon being a member of the community. Maybe, the changes are not that visible to others but I am the one who can feel all the changes. I feel the changes in my heart, in my character, in how my mind works. Changes that I can’t do by myself but with the help of God as these are the changes that I want but I wasn’t able to do when I was not in the community. I can feel the little changes in me. Sometimes, I get disappointed with myself but I learn to deal with it. I also learn how to be patient enough to others and the value of being good and kind to others even if they are not. I learn the value of life, the goodness in it, the grace and love of God and how beautiful life is and the fact that I was not alone, ever. There are still many things that I learn through the community with the support of my household that I also want others to discover by themselves. That’s why I’m really honored to have this chance to serve my brothers and sisters in SFC community. And I pray that what we prepare somehow help brings other closer to God.

Thank You Lord for the chance to serve! I am so excited of the task ahead and how you will reveal yourself to me and to my brothers and sisters in the community. I know that you want me to learn something in this responsibility and I am so eager to know it. I will keep my eyes open for all your wonderful works that you will reveal in my eyes!

Thank You Lord!

Day 35 - Thank you for parks

Thank you Lord for parks!

I thank God for allowing us to go to park. As all of us have no work as it was declared holiday for the Prophet’s Birthday, my housemate and I decided to take a break and enjoy ourselves by going to park. That’s one thing I love in Dubai, there are so many parks where there’s low entrance fee and we can enjoy the trees and the sceneries to our hearts content.

What we do is we wake up early in the morning, which we don’t usually do if there’s no work. Then we prepare breakfast: fried rice, hotdog and egg, and bring them all in the park. We also bring some charcoal for our barbecue and heads up to the park at past 8 am. It’s still very cold on this weather so I make myself comfortable with the shoes and jacket. It’s so nice in the park as it is not crowded and because we go early, it seems like the park is our garden. We just ate our breakfast and launched on park strolling. We leave our food on one area and go on pictorial as all of us brought cameras. We take pictures with the grass, with the flowers, with the birds, with the trees. It’s nice breathing on cold fresh air and jog some more when it was too cold as the wind is also blowing. After we are all satisfied, we got back to our picnic area and lie down, eat breads and chips and wait for launch while also grilling some of our food. After that, we all ate, then take some rest, some are sleeping but we take the chance to stroll on the other side of the park. We decide to go home at around 7 pm as it still gets colder.  

I thank God for allowing me to enjoy simple things in this busy side of the world. I am very glad for the break and bonding moments that we experience with each other’s company and I thank God for allowing us to enjoy everything in their simplest state. And as my laptop is still on the service center, I will just upload all our pictures when I get it back.

Thank You Lord!

Day 34 - Thank you for the Cassava Cake

Thank you Lord for the Cassava Cake!

I thank God for allowing us to make cassava cake last Thursday night. It is with great effort that we make this cake with my housemates. I thank God for sending a friend who knows how to do this delicious food as I am really a fun of cassava cake. I can eat one big pan of this is one go.

First, we grate the cassava. As I want more of this cake for my housemates also, we make cassava cake in two sets. I was the one who grate the cassava and I am very afraid that I will get hurt in the process because the grater is too sharp for me that one single mistake will cause me to have a wound. But all thanks to God, what I’m afraid of never happens. After grating all the cassava, we squeeze them in a clean white cloth to remove the juice so that the cake will be smoother and also for the cake to be not bitter. Then we put sugar coconut milk, cheese, egg, butter and evaporated milk and mix them all. We also have the oven ready on 350 degrees. Then we put the batter on the oven and wait for 1 hour for it to cook. While waiting, we make the syrup for the top. We put flour, sugar, evaporated milk, coconut, and cheese and make them a little thick. We put it at the top after we take the mixture from the oven and put some egg white. According to our chef, we have to broil it but because our oven cannot perform this task, we leave it like that. And cassava cake is done!

It was awesome. To learn to cook something I really like no matter how hard it is. I really learn that I can do anything; no matter how hard it is, as long as I love its corresponding result. I learn that I should not avoid to take the process and pain in making but rather to be excited to the fruit of my labor.

Thank you Lord God!

Day 33 - Thank you for Thursdays

Thank you Lord for Thursdays!

I thank God for Thursdays because Thursdays are the days were I am truly excited. Know why? Because Thursday is the last day of work in a week. After Thursday, there comes Friday and Saturday as rest days. I’m happy for being so excited for the rest days. Thursdays are the days were I plan how my weekends will be. And it’s really a nice feeling to plan especially when we want to do something.

Actually, I’m really excited this weekend because we are planning to make cassava cake, which is one of my favorite native delicacy and we are making it at home. So I’m planning to enjoy doing it as much as I enjoy eating it. I’m also excited for this coming weekend because we are planning to go the peryahan near our place because it was Dubai Shopping Festival is almost over and we didn’t have a chance to go there before even if it was only a 5-minute walk from our place. Also this weekend, we are planning to go the park as winter season is almost over and all of us on the house had no work as it was declared holiday for The Prophet’s birthday of February 4. So, this weekend is a really exciting week for me and I am very happy and excited about it. And this Thursday give me extra time to enjoy my excitement. It’s like I can’t wait it any longer as it comes nearer. And I thank God for this joyous feeling and for allowing me to have this plan with my housemates.

Thank you God!

Day 32 - Thank you for the Heart Month

Thank you Lord for the Heart Month!

I thank God for the Hearth Month, February! February is where most people say that “Love is in the Air” as it was the days were Valentine’s Day was celebrated. For me, February is just like another month. There’s always something out there for me to learn and appreciate in life but just for the mood of it, I’m excited for my friends who have boyfriend and girlfriend. I know that this month is the time were time and affection for each other is overflowing. It is the time were both of them always make extra effort to show each other their appreciation for each other’s presence. Well, as I don’t have a boyfriend, I just contend myself on watching my friends and be happy with their happiness.

I have one special wish for this month. Because it is a heart month, I wish for my friends, who don’t have partners in life yet; to find their one true love this month, God’s gift, as we call it in Singles for Christ. I really wish for my housemates and for my mommy and sisses in Singles for Christ to find the right one for them specially those who are of age now, those who are ready to build their own family, for them to find that right one for them; though that one is not perfect but I always believe that in each other’s eyes, they were perfect. I really wish for them to have what they always wishing for. As for me, I can still wait. I was just happy knowing that they will be happy and I think I am more excited than most of them to find that right one for them. I’m always excited for them to have that family that they long for. Sometimes, I ask myself if I’m also ready for that kind of commitment, but, it just scares me. Maybe I was just too hurt before to hope for myself but I was happy to make it for my friends. Sometimes, I got cynical in this kind of thing, thinking that happy ending is not for me, just for other people, but I always believe that God has great plans for me. I believe also that at the right time, my right one will come along and take away all the doubts that I have. After all, I always believe in fairy tales and happy endings! And I believe in this wonderful season of love, I will be happy. Maybe not for myself, but I will be happy that others found their happiness!

Thank you God!
