Shifting Sands

.:: 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.

Update Ulet

Ngayon ko lang napansin na hindi na pala ko masyadong nagbblog. Ang tindi ba? Sobrang ka-busy-han, ni hindi ko manlang naisip na may blog pala ko.

I actually have a lot of blogs. And even during the times I was not updating this, I even created new blogs in some sites that offer free online journal service. Paano kasi, blocked itong blogger sa office. Now, I have found a way again to access restricted sites from the office and I might as well take advantage of the situation. Kaya lang naman, ano namang isusulat ko?

I've lost my passion in writing. And I think even in reading. Reading just became a habit now. Most of the time now, I read not because I want to, but because I have to. Afterall, we can't deny the fact that we learn a lot from reading. It's part of life.

Kita ko, last update ko was when I was planning pa to get a new digicam. Well, I actually did get it already and have already used it a lot of times. It's so handy that I don't mind even if I leave it in my bag. Halos kasing laki lang sya ng phone ko, which is a N7610, and I haven't minded carrying it everytime I need to bring a camera, not even on an ordinary day na mapag-tripan ko lang magdala, unlike my old Canon Powershot A510 na kahit kailangan ko na syang dalhin, tamad na tamad talaga ko kasi ang bigat! It's still incomparable though with my old Canon when it comes to picture quality, kahit na 3.2 megapixel lang yung Canon ko at 7 megapixel itong bago ko.

Sa ngayon, yun na lang muna. I am currently working on making my devotion a habit (again).

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: 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.

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

"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
