Be safe!

Very recently, I experienced why people say no place is safe anymore, even inside our own homes. Call it small time robbery, this intruder has made its way inside our house. We were all rattled, and thankful that none of us were harmed. I must admit I still am fearful that this intruder will return. Today, as I attended Sunday mass and prayed, my fervent intention was for God to keep our family safe,that people like this robber will be chsnged by the Holy Spirit.

Truly, no place is completely safe. We humans have made an industry of creating services and gadgets that will give us security. However, we are mistaken if we continue to believe that we are safe by our own means. Only God can keep us safe. If we think that our biggest threat is being confronted by robbers and evil doers, we are wrong. As we pray for our physical safety, we must also pray for our spirit, for Our Lord Jesus said: "Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather be afraid of God who can destroy both body and soul in hell."

This Blog Resurrected!

Hi people! Just today I visited Wide-eyed Wonder and was shocked to realize that I haven't posted anything for over a year. now, that's how i define being dormant. However, browsing through some old posts, I see many of my good, memorable contents and now that blogging is more possible on mobile, I have decided to get back on the habit. Really, blogging is nice and productive isn't it? Of course, to make this blog interesting to others,  I have decided to make it's contnts more varied and interesting. I see that my promised book review did not materiaize but I'm planning on catching up with the rest. If it is of any interest, I'm using a Lenovo Ideapad K1 tab.

Have a good life everyone and I'm happy to be blogging again!

Fly, Fly, Lorrainekid!

Lately I have been too lazy to write. Yes, I mean it. The big gaps here on my blog are just one proof. What suffers more are my creative writing aspirations. I have always felt that I have good stories inside my brain, just waiting to be told and explored; now, however, I'm not so sure. Hey, that's the first time I ever really admitted that.

Heck, it's not been all roses for me these days. I don't mean to say I'm living with some serious problems but I'm not exactly cruising along so smoothly. I would love to just be taken away to my own world again one time; where the characters in my head live their own problems and affairs and I am there because I wanna be there. I must admit there are too many distractions in my present life that I cannot somehow find that quiet nook in my head. Yup, there are too many distractions and desires. Maybe my world is expanding.

But you know what? Haha...maybe this is exactly what I need to be better. I have always told myself that to be a better story writer, you have to have something to tell about life yourself. If you know more about life, if you are better exposed to people, if you have been hurt, embarrassed, overjoyed and then depressed for a time, then maybe you will become a better person and consequently, your stories become more real, more objective, more about life.

I would like to be a better, more inspired and motivated writer. I have to fight, or maybe I should not fight but yield in to my distractions and find out where they would lead me, and then who knows? Perhaps I just need to have a change; I just need something new. I know in my heart that the want and need to write and succeed is there, but there is something more, and as I live through everyday, I know I'll get closer to finding out what that is.

I wanna have fun as I go through life. I wanna smile and laugh genuinely as much as possible. Then, I will write. I need my zest redeemed and my whole person rejuvenated. Telling all these on my blog is my first step. I don't need to over criticize myself or punish myself for not writing. Somehow, my writing conscience understands. This I know. My whole person knows. Life is opening itself up to me and I know, I'm all getting ready to grab its balloon strings and fly.

Hey, hey people, I'm still a kid. I'm now a kid who's ready to explore the world and throw my bad fears to the winds. I rely on faith and the trust that wherever I go Father God is with me. I have someone to share my adventure with, always!

A happy life everyone!
