today! once more, i am breaking through the clouds in order to breathe life into the horizon. a bit woozy though to think that i am aging. i have now passed mid-life and honestly, i didn’t want to but the process is inevitable. whether i like it or not i will continually age every year. i pray that God will always include me in his plans. yet even if i added another year i have always felt timeless. with my munchkins around, i feel youthful and energetic and always rejoicing with what the world has been offering me. at this age, i could say that i have achieved the fulfillment i wanted in terms of my harmonious existence, the vast knowledge i have acquired, and my steadfast commitment to reach out and inspire others. when i needed peace, it has always been easy for me to acquire that. i am also blessed with people who loves me dearly. a wonderful job, a life, a love and my children. today, i ponder, once more, my greatest dreams in excitement and at the same time with wistful sense of longing. it seems my dreams are just within reach, waiting for me to walk into them. i feel like what i desire. i also value the life i was given, building, dreaming, living with love, writing about love, treading the path of love, sharing, encouraging people and experiencing. i had a year of wonderful moments and of course, share of trials and deprivations. as always, i had some lessons learned especially on my interaction with my daughters. as they grow, rearing them gets more complicated but every complications i surpassed makes me more committed and self-assured. when i look back as well, i also couldn't imagine my life without so many of you.
i continue to be in deep gratitude and appreciation for what i have and for what i continue to receive. i am also in gladness and in anticipation for the life i am going to lead in the coming months which, as always, an enthralling mystery to look forward to. thinking of what lies ahead gives me a sense of urgency to pursue every ounce of my dreams with an unstoppable passion.
i am pleased to have been showered with well wishes from family and friends all over the continent. my smile has been on steroids for the entire week! to everyone who remembered me, your good words and well wishes and efforts to reach me out have been taken so happily and have been treasured and remembered deeply in my heart.
yes! another year older, yet timeless. . .
