Random Thoughts On My Special Day

"Whatever with the past has gone, the best is always yet to come."
~ Lucy Larcom

I remember when I was still on my early teens, I couldn't wait to become an adult...But now that I am one, I want to be younger again. =P Take note of the word "younger", it means I am still young. (denial..:))

Sounds familiar? Hahaha! I'm sure most people, if not everyone, can relate to this. Kaya nga uso ang botox at kung anu-ano pang pampabata 'di ba? :) But aside from the younger looks (those were the days when I was cuter? lol!), I miss those days when I was still carefree. Being an adult entails a lot of maturity *yeah!* and responsibility. Ugh! BIG words! Hahaha!

Oh well! In spite having said all that I am still thankful for my ** years. (fill in the blanks! hehe) Celebrating my birthday today reminded me how blessed I am. Despite the challenges, God has given me with sooooooooooo much! :)

Aaaaaannnnnnddddddd...since it's my special day, forgive my vanity post. Haha! I really just wanted an excuse to post these pictures of myself when I was younger. LOL! *wink wink*

And above all, Lord, thank YOU for giving me these people...thank YOU for all Your blessings!!! Please continue to bless me, my family, my loved ones and my friends with good health, peace, prosperity and love. Thank YOU also for making me realize how blessed I am and for being with me always. I love You, Lord! (",)

The LORD is my light and my salvation;

whom should I fear?

The LORD is my life’s refuge;

of whom should I be afraid?
