.:: Goldi's Noted Thoughts ::.
Sometimes I believe all the lies
so I can do the things I should despise.
And everyday I am swayed
by whatever is on my mind.

I hear it all depends on my faith
so I'm feeling precarious.
The only problem I have with these
mysteries is they're so mysterious.

And like a consumer I've been thinkin'
if I could just get a bit more...
More than my fifteen minutes of faith,
Then I'd be secure...

My faith is like shifting sand,
changed by every wave...
My faith is like shifting sand
so I stand on grace...
Stand on grace.

I begged You for some proof
for my Thomas eyes to see.
A slithering staff, a leprous hand,
and lions resting lazily.

A glimpse of Your backside glory
on this soaked altar going ablaze.
But You know I've seen so much,
I explained it away...

My faith is like shifting sand
changed by every wave...
My faith is like shifting sand
so I stand on grace

Waters rose as my doubts reign
My sand castle faith have slipped away
I found myself standing on Your grace
It'd been there all the time

My faith is like shifting sand
changed by every wave...
My faith is like shifting sand
so I stand on grace...
Stand on grace.

Life can seem unbearable at times, but don't let it keep you down. Meditate on God's goodness, talk to Him, and know that He hears you. When life knocks you to your knees, you're in a good position to pray.

The Wonders of Blog Hopping
All I did for the past few days was blog hop. I so much want to write something in here but I just can't think of anything to write worthy of sharing. I guess I'm straining myself too much with this thing. I know blogging should be as natural as breathing, that I don't have to stress myself too much of thinking if the people reading this will like what they read. No matter how I think that blogging should be some kind of therapy for me, I still can't avoid being so cautious of what I write, always thinking if people will like it.

Blog hopping somehow helped me with that. I have spent most of the time I am online in reading several blogs right now, and I found it amusing, and some inspiring. May mga nakita akong nakakaaliw and informative at the same time, merong touching, merong napapa-wow na lang ako. Mixed emotions. But of course the best part is I learn something from every blog I read.

Sa dami ng napuntahan ko, hindi ko na matandaan kung ano ano ang mga iyon. Saka, wala naman akong intensyon na karirin yung blog hopping, like I'm going to ask for their links para madalaw ko nang madalas ang blog nila. At first, ganun ang ginagawa ko pero ngayon, sa dami na ng bloggers, sa tingin ko hindi ko na yun kailangang gawin. Matatandaan ko naman pati agad ang url ng isang site kung talagang balak ko siyang balikan ulit. Pero open pa rin ako sa link exchanges. It's nice to meet friends thru blog hoppin', but it's not really the reason why I blog hop. Wala lang.

Nakakatuwa kasing makabasa ng mga blog na nakaka-relate ka. Ako, natutuwa ako pag nakakabasa ako ng blog ng mga Christian, kapag nagkukwento ng tungkol sa kung paano nila hinaharap ang bawat problema o kahit anong bagay na hindi nila maintindihan sa buhay nila, at kung paanong sa kabila ng mga paghihirap na yon ay nakukuha pa rin nilang magpuri at magtiwala sa Diyos. Ang pagkakaroon nila ng pag-asang hindi nawawala, pag-asang nagpapalakas sa kanilang harapin ang kahit anong problema. Ang pananampalataya nila, at pagtitiwala. Galeng talaga.

About This Blog
I don't intend this to be my life's chronicles but I might write some of my experiences here. Even so, everything that's written in here are either products of my excessive contemplation, or just plainly, pure boredom. In any case, I still try to write as sensible as possible, for what I really intend to do and I hope is achieved in every writing, is to impart or share some of the things I learn and sometimes, some struggles in life. Don't expect all seriousness in everything in here though.

In short, this blog is my outlet. My noted thoughts and reflections.

About Me

Yahoo! Avatars

Name: Goldi

Home: Pasay City, Philippines

Birthday: June 2

Hobbies & Interests: Jesus, music, books, journals, internet, computers, tech stuff, gadgets * sound tripping, singing, playing musical instruments (I know guitar and flute recorder, I just wish I can play them well), watching movie with a tub of popcorn drizzled with melted butter (yum!), reading * observing, pondering, reflecting, learning * laughing or making people laugh (though I'm not good at it) and laugh with them, make people smile, or just listen to their stories. Minsan, trip ko lang din mang-asar =p

About Me: I'm a simple, idealistic but down-to-earth, & friendly person. Quiet most of the time, but friendly enough to have a nice talk (or even a hearty laugh) with anyone. "I myself no longer live, but Christ lives in me. So I live my life in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me." Galatians 2:20 NLT

Principles I live by:

"Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart." -Psalm 37:4

"If people talk negatively about you, live in such a way that no one will believe them."

"God is a God of happy endings. If you're not yet happy, it's not yet the end."

"It's not what we know but what we do that counts." -Our Daily Bread

"It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." -Dumbledore, Harry Potter 2

"Girls should assume that until a guy expresses interest, they're just friends." -J. Harris, Boy Meets Girl

"True love doesn't just wait; it plans." -Boy Meets Girl

"Eros will have naked bodies; friendship naked personalities." -C.S. Lewis

"Ideals are like stars; we will not succeed in touching them with our hands but by following them, as the sea faring man in the ocean, we will reach our destiny." -J. Harris, Boy Meets Girl
