DUHH!!!

If History is a man and he is sarcastic, I am sure I would hear him say, "DUHH!!" to me over my reaction concerning all the circumstances that I have been obsessing about in the past weeks.  He'd probably would have said, "Come on, we've been here before, we've heard those words before, in fact, one too many times in the past, it was hurled at us, to the point that if I am a diary, this was already a repetitive entry, but the world didn't end with it!  We're still here, and we're okay!  And I can't understand why you're letting it bother you so!!"

Be at rest, be at rest, my souL
For the Lord has been good to you!

So today, I choose to thank the Lord.  Thank You Lord Jesus for enduring my incessant rain of complaints, and even the thunder of anger and frustration over events and words that are beyond my control that most often comes with the downpour.

I'm still the weakling that I am so please take a hold of my mind and my heart and point to me in your blueprint the part that You and I should be working on right now in the reconstruction that you are doing in my life.

Again, I recommit to you, the Master Carpenter, this rotting wood I call myself.  Take it and use it as you wish...

of big shoes and lessons

April 2001 I woke up early this morning and went straight to doing my weekend chores...like hanging a two-week worth of laundry under the sun (before the sun is up), afterwhich I went back to bed to do some reading. Three hours later, my mom came and said, "Men ina-no? Ollaw law!" (Are you ready? We're about to leave!") I was confused for a moment then I realized it's the first Saturday of the month and I need to be somewhere to teach. It totally slipped my mind as my mind was still all over the place from Xami's stay in the hospital and then traveling right after it and coming home again. I changed and put my things in my backpack and was gonna put on my shoes only to realize I don't have any appropriate shoes. I asked the hubby if I can try one of his and a pair looked not so bad as the others. So off we went with me looking like I have boats attached to my feet rather than shoes. I used the lesson that I prepared for a women's conferenc

ADDICTIONS

My addictions are weird but I think these are not unique to me.  I have three addictions and I am very glad that I have overcome one of them, at least for now.   #SUGAR_ADDICT  Over a month ago, I was probably one of the worst sugar/carb addict there is.  Since I was diagnosed with diabetes almost three decades ago, I went into a rollercoaster of dieting and fasting and binge eating.  I would weigh myself, get disgusted with what I see and resolve to eat nothing for a week. I would lose 10kg, then the following week, I would eat all the calories that I restricted myself from and more.  Then in April of last year I tried the ketogenic diet and it was working for a month or so until an aunt commented that I will get all wrinkly and saggy if I lose too much weight and my mind used that statement as an excuse to go back to my standard way of eating which has always left me feeling and looking bloated, inflamed, fat, and ugly.  It also aggravated all my health issues specially w
