re-using, re-building this blog has never my intention until end of september when I was abut to graduate and to have my 22nd birthday (yeay I have turned 22 y.o. last monday). It was too much memories, happy moments as well as upsetting moments that I would love to just pass it through. It was so hard to go through it all, and start fresh. A part of them chained me and didn't allow me to move on (at least that how it seemed for me). But just before I turned 22, I have decided to delete all those past posts and I am committing to re-create, re-tell my journey of life in (hopefully) a better way.
It has taken me sometime to keep editing this post, since it will be counted and known as the first post ever using this blog address. But I guess at some point I have to start somewhere and I have to take a leap of faith to step forward by sharing my new first ever post and publish it.
I would love to be able to share stories and perhaps discuss things with you all. I am hoping that this blog can someday be a great impact that can encourage and relate to all people regardless of age, geographic location and backgrounds. Many of the events occurring will be based pretty much from what I went through daily, but I would love to be enlightened through sharing and stories from anyone who reads this blog =).
So as the title of this entry mentioned, "the old has passed away; behold, the new has come," I believe in second chances. God has given me personal GRACE and MERCY so that I am forgiven and moreover I am redeemed by His blood on the cross regardless of my past, my sins, and my circumstances. He has done great things in my life and I declare His blessings over me and share it with you all. I am not perfect (which I know for sure) and I will never be, but this journey of life is a learning journey. We should strive that today is better than yesterday, and our tomorrow has to be even better than today. It will never easy to satisfy everyone since we will never be able to do so despite of all the efforts we put, but we can be the best that we can. And if we have done so, disregards what and how other people respond towards us. Sometimes we have to believe that the limited time that we have, should be better of thinking and reacting to responses and events occurring in life that are indeed worth our time and thoughts, than just dwelling on unworthy thoughts and events in life.
As many of us ever heard of this quote before, "every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future." So let's appreciate everyone and hold hands together so that we can go through and finish this journey of life strongly. x
