Hope for the Hopeless

Monday, June 30, 2008

If we will only scrutinize our status quo, we will find out that we are living in a miserable world. There are a lot of circumstances that will draw our lives to the world of hopelessness. But still we have our families and kins who derive its strength from our Divine Providence. Thus, the main source of our inner strength in order to uplift ourselves from being hopeless to being hopeful for a promising tomorrow is our family accompanied with our faith as believers of our Supreme Being. It is our faith that keeps us on the right track, but if this will be torn into pieces, we will be lost as we journey the road of life. Henceforth, we have our family that will serve as our guide for us not to go astray.

A Piece of Help

Sunday, June 29, 2008

Our forest had been depleted because of greed and selfishness. And we suffer today because of what had been done yesterday. Our help to the environment could create a huge impact in our ecosystem.

Let’s not follow the wrong doings that the older generations had committed against our mother nature. Let’s plat a tree not just for us, but also for the future. And we will be remembered with a great smile on the hearts of our younger generation who will eventually be the country’s future leaders.

After five or six years of marriage, many married people say that love has died, passed away, disappeared into the air. To some extent, I have to agree that love does undergo some adjustment period after the honeymoon is over. Many do see the love they once shared just continuously fading into indifference or contempt and eventually ending in death, instead of picking up and getting stronger.

But I do believe that love in marriage does not die away completely – unless the husband and wife involved allow it to happen.

Rosebud Potential

Wednesday, June 25, 2008

My husband and I adore miniature roses. Recently, we planted several bushes, but one did not survive. We returned it to the nursery and asked for an exchange. It was mid-summer and the mini-roses section was limited.

I looked at one that had a picture showing its potential when in full bloom. But the rose plant itself looked rather plain. My husband offered some good advice. “Don’t look at the full blossoms. Look at how many healthy new rosebuds are starting to form.”

Following his advice, we selected, brought home, planted, and tended the plant with the most rosebuds. In only a week, it had blossomed beautifully!
