Day4 - Letter to sister

Dear Ate,

First of all I thank you for being a sister to me. There are a lot of sisters in the world but not all are given the chance to be a real sister. I love you. In my elementary, high school and college days I realized that I don’t really have a friend that I could confidently say that he or she is my best friend. Until, today I realized I have a best friend all this time and it’s you. Thank you for being always there for me. You’re the first person who would come into my mind to share my stories either  good  or bad. Thank you for everything. I appreciate all the things you’ve shared with me. Simple or extravagant they are all special to me. I’m sorry for my temper. I promise to change it. Please, bear with me. I love you and I am grateful to have as my sister. I would never want God to replace you in my life.

Your victory is my victory,

Anne

Day 3 - Letter to mom and dad

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

It took me almost 2 months before I gathered all my guts to write a letter to you. It’s supposed to be a 3rd day letter but it took me this long. I guess I wasn’t ready to lay out the cards, to tell you how I really feel. I just want to let you know that despite of everything. Despite of you choosing for my course in college I never hated you. I loved you despite of all the pain, the struggle that I have go through. I loved you even if I was hurting. I took the course even if I didn’t liked it because I love you dearly. I think taking it was the biggest sacrifice I ever made in my life. I chose you over my dream of being a chef. I chose it because I love you. I chose it not because I don’t have a voice but because I love you so much and I didn’t want to see you hurting.

I’m sorry if for now I don’t have the plan of pursuing my career. Please, don’t think that I don’t  love you. I do love you that’s why I want to pursue my dream of being a chef over my nursing profession. I want you to understand that I want to fulfill my dream because I want to serve you with a happy heart. Not because I wanted revenge but because I believe that if I pursue my dream I’ll be serving you more.

You are a blessing to me. Without you I wouldn’t be here. If not because of you I wouldn’t be who I am today. A person who is disciplined, has principles in life, and lives with values.

You are a role model to me. Because of you I learned to love ate and kuya sincerely. I learned how to share despite of the low resources that I have. I learned to love despite of all the pain. Because of you I would still believe in love even if it is painful. That someone would come into my life as well and would love and respect me. Yours is a realy love story.

I love you.

You have been through a lot, I know, I saw it. I want to help you. I would love to help you. But please be patient with me. I know I don’t have work. I don’t like it as well. I have plans in life. But I think the rest that I’m having right now is a blessing from God. For the past years I’m living with a heavy heart. I guess God had seen my struggle, burden and pains. He wants me to stop, rest and reflect. Don’t worry it won’t take long. I’m thinking things over.  Planning out again. This is for the better. I promise you’ll be proud of me soon. This won’t take long, I promise.

Please, do pray for me, for my success, for our success. I need you in my success.

I love you and I would always love you. Please, don’t forget that.

For more years of happiness and love,

Anne

God Whispers

Dear Anne,

Stress is really separation. Worry is separation. Fear is separation.  Sadness is separation. We’re afraid because we feel alone. We’re sad because we feel no one is there for us. Anger and unforgiveness is also separation.

Yours truly,

God

P.S. Any movement towards separation makes us sick. But any movement towards connection makes you whole! When you forgive, when you love, when you trust, you walk towards your healing, Anne.

Coffee Break - Running Persistently

Persistence, I think that is what I don’t have right now. I have a dream but I don’t have the persistence to go and grab it.  I don’t know why. I really don’t know why. I’m praying to God, to please give me the persistence and determination to go and chase my dream. I’m losing all of my courage now. I know I’m great and I’m doing good. But I just feel so disappointed to whatever that is happening to my life now. I feel like my life is a big crap. I felt like I have no direction at all.  Where am I going? I don’t know.

Per-sis-tence : If you have persistence, you continue to do something even though it is difficult or other people are against it.

Dear God,

Please provide me the persistence that I need, that I don’t have. I’m tired, but I don’t want to be stuck on this forever. Guide me Lord, to show you my true worth. I thank you for more wonderful blessings, career that I deserve and I would love. I pray for a career that I can hone my skills and passion. I pray that through my wonderful career I would be able to bless more people. Thank you.

Mwah,

Angelica Q.
