.:: 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.

I've Been Tagged!
Okay. I've been tagged by already two people in my "A" - list of blog friends (Arnold, and Arglene) to answer these questions so, here's mine. Napilitan tuloy akong mag-post, hehehe. =D

Thanks to the two of you. Nagkaroon ako ng ipo-post. =P


1. What are the things you enjoy doing even when there's no one around you?
  • Think and talk to myself. And this one I really do alone talaga kasi kung may people around, di hindi na sarili ko kakausapin ko =P. I usually find myself pondering on something whenever I am alone and if it's something that raises question in my mind or something I just realized, I sometimes blurt out to myself the question or I'll just agree loudly. Just plainly talking "with" myself. Kasi I ask the question, and then when I've thought of the answer, I'll answer loudly. Weird noh. =P Mag-isa lang naman ako eh. Basically I was just thinking out loud.


  • Read. Who wants to be disturbed when reading? Though I don't mind having people around while I'm reading, It'd be better if I do it alone, specially if you're reading a very good book diba. I don't really welcome interruptions when I'm reading, but it doesn't mean I'm rude. Disappointed nga lang.


  • Listen to music. I tend to think and ponder a lot when I listen to a song, specially if it's something I can relate to.


  • Prayer and quite time or devotion. I'd like to have my time alone with God all ours. And given a choice and a chance, I prefer doing it in a very quite and peaceful place. Some place that's close to nature, like the seaside, on top of a mountain or a hill, or in a park.


  • Write an entry in my journal. I used to do this a lot when I was in college. I used to keep a journal notebook when I still go to school because I love to write and I I still have a lot of time to do it before. Saka wala pa kaming computer nun at sobrang namamahalan ako sa pag-rent ng pc para lang mag-internet. I still do keep a journal up to these days but I don't write much in it now. As in, mas madalas ko pa ngang i-update 'tong blog (madalas pa ng lagay na yan). I miss those times though.


2. What lowers your stress/blood pressure/anxiety level?
  • An inspirational song or any music with a soothing sound

  • Siguro if I'd be given flowers? (Hehehe) Or a rocky road ice cream


  • An encouraging word


  • People who believe in me and cheer me up, or plainly people who are there for me no matter what


  • Crying I guess, lalo na kung medyo mabigat problema ko. It's something kasi that I'm having difficulty in doing. I only can't cry hard enough, but I'm having a hard time making myself cry. Another weirdness of me.


3. Tag five friends and ask them to post it in theirs.

ia, karla, russ, tanda and trisha. =)


*************

Bout the mood: Though it's not literally Friday, I put it because today is my Friday which means, it's my week end at work! Rest day ko na! At gusto kong manood ng Charlie and the Chocolate Factory!

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
