For three times this year, she almost came face to face with her Creator. The first time was when she underwent an emergency surgery, the second was when her blood went septic due to an acute infection that was made worst by a typhoid fever, and then the third time was when her head and her husband's was almost ran over by a jeep when she and her husband fell off his motorbike during an accident last week. All that made her realize how important time is and that we should be ready to go anytime, cuz really, we never really know. To her, being ready is to be sure that when you go, people who've crossed your path in one way or another will not be left with questions in their minds. Having said that, the near-death experiences she underwent really reminded her about the importance of forgiveness, both in bestowing it and receiving it, but so much more on the bestowing-it-part. She is not one to hold grudges against someone! Gosh, I don't think sh...

NORMAN AND FRENZ
My very good friend Norman Malcat released a local Christmas album the first of this month here in Nueva Vizcaya. It has 12 songs with original lyrics adapted to traditional and contemporary Christmas music. So Igorots out there, esp. Kalanguyas, you can order this Christmas cd from me... just text me at 09269441970. Here's a sample but I'm sorry that the views do not have anything to do with the song. I just threw in some pics and music together in Windows movie maker so I can upload it here. ;)

wow! I have ignored everything that has to do with blogging for almost a month! I have been busy doing everything and nothing. You know, when you're trying to do a bit of everything and nothing seems to get accomplished. Well, maybe there were accomplishments but not in the things that I have set out to do. I feel so awful for something that happened a few days ago. On the eve of his birthday, my 8-year old nephew called me to make good of my promise that I will be his birthday celebrant. I did promised a month ago that I would bake or at least buy his cake. I even told him that he should pray that the Lord will provide for his birthday! ... so my nephew called me, and I was kind of out of town that day and I was not able to do as I have promised and it broke his little heart. His dad texted me saying that he refused to speak to them; and just sat there with his hands cupping his chin after he talked to me on the phone....
DONE!
Yessss!!!!!!! It's finished, over, and done with!!!! I just sent in the last of my papers to a friend in Manila so she could print it and turn it in. I feel like a thorn in my flesh has been removed. Well, it wasn't as bad as that. I enjoyed the reading and writing part. It's just that the thinking and organizing-my-thoughts parts were truly cruel and oppressive; a patience-trying, mind-numbing, exasperating endeavor. Now I think I'll go buy myself an ice cream, a chocolate, and a piece of cake. I deserve all these, don't I? Yum, yum! ----------------------------------- Thank you Dear God for your goodness, guidance and grace as I plodded through this past semester. You are incomparably the Best!!! Thank you Sis D for encouraging me day in and day out to press on. Thank you, all of you who cared and prayed.
