Some Lessons on the Run

on currently one of Life’s More Major Agenda Items:

Sometimes it’s like we’re all still, and supposed to be, in kindergarten

1. It helps to hold each other’s hands.
2. It’s great to keep the hopeful face and the positive heart of the trusting child. We don’t know everything but we have faith that everything will work out, when it’s supposed to.
3. No single person has THE answer to the question or the problem. And yet paradoxically, the answer lies in each one and in all.
4. The Goddess helps those who help themselves. While there are no certain answers, we seek and traverse each path that seems the most loving at each time.
5. We each have our things to contribute and to share, each contribution not exactly the same as the others; some have more to give, but each gift is precious. Di ko kaya ang ginagawa niya pero ang mga kaya ko ay gagawin ko.

It has been liberating for me to know that I don’t know much, and I lend my support to those who know more than me, with the understanding that they don't know everything, either. We are just one in our love.

It has been ok to have been scared, to have been sad but in the end it has helped to surrender the outcome and yet have the faith that there is a bigger purpose to all of this, and to try and understand this purpose in our hearts at every step and turn.

It feels good to know that, damn, love always works! Love always begets love. Yong pagmamahal sa mga kaibigan at sa pamilya ay laging nagbubunga at bumabalik.

I am sorry to have to keep talking in riddles :-), and thus, end up sounding like one enormous cliché. But what I can do? It really is all that!

Those who know and understand will know and understand with their hearts of what I speak. Someday, this is going to be one long hearty chuckle, on an ocean of love, that is eternity.
