To each a different story…

There are those times that life hits you with a pan on the face without even a warning.  It sucks hehe..

I was checking my friends on friendster and saw a shout out that they won a P1000 for their photo. I immediately clicked the photo and saw it was a wedding kiss. Then, I tried to view their other pictures so I could be updated on how their family is and how’s their first-born child. It’s been years since we all have seen each other and I noticed we’ve all “matured”. Some have grown vertically and some just flat horizontal. (haha)

Looking at their pictures, I couldn’t help but reminisce those times that we were only grade school and we were classmates. They were a couple already back then. It was just so amazing and I couldn’t believe that these things still happen. It was like looking through a slideshow of a real-life fairy tale. But these things happen to a few lucky people only and I’m just glad I got to see that during my lifetime (even if I didn’t experience that hehe..).

I couldn’t help but to look and re-examine my life and though I couldn’t see girls lining up on my arms via slideshow, I realized, we write our own different stories. It just happened that my first few chapters weren’t about love and relationships. Probably, mine would have been a story of action or comedy. I’m sure its not horror or sci-fi. But in the end,  who knows, maybe I’ll live to see the day these words printed out “…And they lived happily ever after.”

Still holding our breaths…

Last Night was a different kind of fun night. As some of you guys already know, Im attending prayer meetings every Tuesday with the Imagine Nation guys. These are for the people wanting to be an apprentice in John Mateos Ong’s studio. After finishing the PDL last week, we had another fellowship last night. We ate a lot (as usual) and then we watched a movie and dissected it. 

The group was a bit silent and not the usual buzzy sharing. Probably because some of us brought new friends to join us for the party and the movie. Lucky for me, I was able to bring one at short notice. You would have thought booking friends 7 days prior would give you enough time to have someone go with you but you’d be surprised to know they’d be backing out at the last minute =P Not that I’m complaining, but I’ve learned to let go of some things which I couldn’t control. I’m probably just thinking, God has a reason for this and it’s just not their time yet.

Anyway, I really thought there’d be an announcement last night about the results of our apprenticeship. I was so anxious to know the results especially with our friends, coming with us. To our surprise, the results, still weren’t revealed. Our batch were already buzzing whether the invitation to be on the Wednesday or the Thursday group would mean our being “official” apprentices under Imagine Nation.  So before I went to sleep, I couldn’t let this thing go just by waiting for the official results or just assuming we all got in.  So I emailed Sir Jong about our statuses.

When I woke up this morning, had my prayer time, and couldn’t wait to open up the computer. I saw Sir Jong’s reply and literally praying over the contents of it and it looks like, we’d still be holding our breaths till tomorrow. Though everyone has shown their commitment during the 7 or 8 weeks, I pray that whatever the results will be tomorrow, we’ll all be able to accept God’s plan for us.
