Three Day Novena to Our Lady of Mount Carmel
Say this prayer for 3 consecutive days and then click here to pass it on to 3 more people.
Oh, most beautiful flower of Mount Carmel, fruitful vine, splendor of Heaven.
Oh, Blessed Mother of the Son of God; Immaculate Virgin, assist me in my necessity.
Oh, Star of the Sea, help me and show me you are my Mother.
Oh, Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succor me in my necessity.
(Mention your request here)
There are none that can withstand your power.
Oh, Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee. (say three times).
Holy Mary, I place this prayer in your hands. (say three times).
Amen.

You... make me love things conventional
and want the normal things that people do...
to love the usual way, but extraordinarily
i no longer worry about the better things that could have been
had i done things some other way
for you are the best thing that happened to me
and i can never ask to undo anything
for however wrong it might have felt,
you are the right that justifies it all

I didn't know it'll be you, neither did you ever think this possible. None of us even entertained the idea of each other. Who would've known we'd find ourselves in this place where we are now? Now things are making more sense. Now I know why I'm here, and why I'm doing this. Things used to lack reason, but now I'm glad everything happened cause all those led me to where I am, with you. I will never trade this for the shudacudawudas had things went otherwise. One decision after another, right or wrong becomes exactly what should be. You make me better, a better happier person and that justifies all the hardships in life.

When you find yourself once more in that place that has been left to your imagination for the past few years, everything that felt stoic and cynic now becomes surreal.
I've been waiting for you, and I'm glad I waited. Cause though life has been so tough, all the pains and heartaches just become faded memories. You make this life worth everything that should mean something. Life has been quite unkind and I've known how hard it can be. But I don't care anymore, cause you make me happy... the kind of happiness that eliminates all the complications and pluralities of being. This is not just about the person that you are who came into my life... It's about that person I've become because now you are in my life...

On this day of your life, Christine Anne, we believe God wants you to know ... that Love is the most important thing.
It's not about how much you have, how much you know, or how much you do. It's about how well you love. Love is what matters most.

On this day of your life, Christine, we believe God wants you to know ... that no matter how good you try to be to others, you will occasionally hurt them. Forgive yourself for it.
The same will happen with them. Forgive them for it.

On this day of your life, Christine, we believe God wants you to know ... that doubt is the rust of life.
Doubt holds you landlocked in paralysis unable to move either way. The time you spent doubting is the time you are not alive. So, rid yourself of the doubt, take that step one way or another, your heart knows what is best, but take it right now.

On this day of your life, Christine, we believe God wants you to know ... that it's okay to receive.
Have you been the giver for so long that you have forgotten how to receive? Allow others to give you some of the love that you give so freely. Seek a balance between your giving and your receiving.

On this day of your life, Christine, we believe God wants you to know ... that it's your heart that knows who loves you, not your ears or eyes.
Listen to the words, and you can be fooled. Look at the actions, and you can be fooled. Feel deeply into your heart, and then you will know the truth. Who makes your heart soar now? Well, what are you waiting for?

On this day of your life, Christine, we believe God wants you to know ... that it is time to finally forgive yourself.
You've carried the guilt, the shame for long enough. You've kept your wounds open for long enough. The time has come to let go, to heal. Keep the lessons and let the pain heal. Yes, you know what we are talking about it.

On this day of your life, Christine, we believe God wants you to know ... that the way you know you have found the right one is the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with the person.
Having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are, chaff and grain together; certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away. - a quote by Dinah Craik

On this day of your life, Christine, we believe God wants you to know ... that to love is to be vulnerable.
Love is the opening of the heart, the welcoming of your beloved. Loving is not secure, authentic loving is risky. Security lies behind the walls of a closed heart. You either invite the union by opening in love, or you secure the isolation by closing down.

Fireflies at nighttime
Child's laughter
Hugs and Kisses
White Chocolate
Coke Light
The Sound of Music
Sunshine and blue skies when I open my eyes
Smell of grass after a rainshower
Wind blowing through my face
December snow
Summer sunshine
Christmas Eve
But I want most of all is to be with You

I just need that one someone in my life...

On this day of your life, Christine, we believe God wants you to know ... that you deserve happiness just because.
There is nothing you need to do to deserve happiness. There are no 'minimal requirements' for you to fulfill before you can claim happiness. You deserve happiness simply by virtue of having been born. That's it. Nothing more is required. Be happy.

God knows what I'm going through...
and it's nice to read answers...
On this day of your life, Christine, we believe God wants you to know ... that you are perfect as you are.
God doesn't create faulty life. No. Everything created by God is perfect, and so are you. So stop driving yourself mad with endless ways to improve, and just accept the glory of your being as is.

You know how people get back to consciousness after getting resuscitated?
I wonder when I'd get that sound of getting that first breath of air
And feeling alive again...
I wonder when I'd get that sound of getting that first breath of air
And feeling alive again...
I'm getting that sense that maybe I should be more careful with my heart
cause no one else would take care of it
you can give it to them to hold it
but only you can catch it and keep it from breaking

Howcome my life always has to take the backseat?
When will it be about me?
Not me in terms of the situation...
It can get exhausting you know
But I guess you just rant and go on, and just keep on going
When will I find those moments when I could feel alive again?
And when will I have those sweet beginnings?
I want so much for life to give me those things...
And let me feel that it can be kind as well...

I'm sick... I feel sick and I feel like I'd get even sicker tomorrow
When the going gets tough, it's nice to retreat
Colds and fever can be nice at times
When you suddenly feel that just want to take a break
And be lucky enough, in a way or another, to have just the right excuse to do so

On this day of your life, Christine, we believe God wants you to know ... that decision is only wishful thinking until you take that first irreversible step.
You can tell yourself that you have already decided, that nothing now can stop you, but if that step backwards is so much safer than step forwards, what will hold you true to your path when the going gets tough? Sometimes, the right thing to do is to take that first irreversible step, the one after which you cannot go back. And now, for you, is one of those times.

On this day of your life, Christine, we believe God wants you to know ... that you will feel better if you notice the sweetness of life.
Notice the smiles of children, the songs of the birds, the caress of the sun's warmth. This sweetness is for you. Allow it to soothe your soul and bring a smile to your face.

I sometimes want to be told that great things are to come
At times, I just need some kind of a reassurance that it will be okay
Cause in times of your life when you hear that guitar strumming and everything's in slow motion
You somehow feel like moments are passing too soon, yet you feel every single second of it
Cause you need something to look forward to, more than just what is...
And you want to believe that God has stored something great in your will be

Reality checks can really keep you grounded...
But when you just hit cloud 9,
damn the fall can really hurt
and it again makes you feel all the things that you fear
the what really is can make you really feel insecure
somewhat...

Ironic, or rather miraculous how God answers me through facebook... Somehow it can really be reassuring
On this day of your life, Christine, we believe God wants you to know ... that it's time you stopped hiding from life, and said yes to the adventure of being alive.
Enough of the routine already. Go on, have an adventure, - do what you always wanted deep within your heart. Do what brings you alive, and the universe will open doors where there were only walls.

Sometimes it can get frustrating
And really embarrassing
Not so much to other people
Cause hell, they don't really know much
There's this inner shame with the situation
Making you hate it...
Or torn to want it or forget it

Tonight I asked my friend to remind of moments like these...
that life can be good and simple
for in times such as this I feel that anything is possible
and the pluralities of life feel so far away
When moments are shared through genuine friendships,
they become worth remembering
and telling
even when there's nothing much to tell
except for the beauty of life and lives that you share it with

Strange sometimes how one waits for something that may never come
And strange how at times one hopes for something that would only crush her
Elphaba said to not wish for it would only wound your heart
Cause hoping does entail your heart believing for the possibility of him coming
And the hope only survives with that tinge of optimism

When you've lived your life in quiet desperation long enough...
It makes your heart wild that nothing could contain the frustration anymore
Nothing makes a man crazier than the charade of lies that life imposes

FALLING SLOWLY
...I do know that it's you that I want that much...
You know that moment in the movies when one suddenly realizes that he's changed forever?
That that person has made or destroyed him for good... in just a few seconds, one's life is all or nothing
By Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova
I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along

There's a certain kind of release that neither brings pleasure nor pain...
Only peace within...
And more heart to love again...
Only peace within...
And more heart to love again...
I've seen how hatred can destroy someone more than it destroys the object of their hate...
It's a lesson I've learned that I will never unlearn
For I will not ever seal my fate by destroying anyone
It's a lesson I've learned that I will never unlearn
For I will not ever seal my fate by destroying anyone

What comes after hate?
... indifference

Answered Questions
Sometimes it's harder when you discover the answers to the questions you have had for so long...
I've searched far and wide for things I didn't know that only time could give...
Now the more difficult task, to forgive.

Owner of the Sky
By Cynthia Alexander
Time and time again we tread upon
the dusty earth we bed in search for
the Owner of the Sky
must I? I must! I say age upon age, say I,
exalt in the search for
the Owner of the Sky
I see sky, you see the sky from end to end
sees I, you see I be now as I be then
Life after life I be borne upon the dusty path
lay your head on the weary rock
in search for in search for
the Owner of the Sky
I see sky, you see
the sky from end to end
sees I, you see I be now as I be then
Time and time again we tread upon
the dusty earth we bed in search for
the Owner of the Sky
must I? I must! I say age upon age, say I,
exalt in the search for
the Owner of the Sky
I see sky, you see the sky from end to end
sees I, you see I be now as I be then
Life after life I be borne upon the dusty path

Don't Let Go, We're all on the Same Boat
'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button, girl.
So cradle your head in your hands
And breathe... just breathe,
Oh breathe, just breathe
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button, girl.
So cradle your head in your hands
And breathe... just breathe,
Oh breathe, just breathe
-Anna Nalick-
We're all carrying our own extra baggage. Everyone on earth's hanging on a thread. There's no point regretting, all we should do is learn. There's no point being consumed about what will be, all we should do is hope... and live right at the moment. For every pain and every triumph, breathe the present. It's all we could do, we should do... No one knows where he is, he just has to keep on walking.

Dreaming With A Broken Heart
When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part
You roll outta bed and down on your knees
And for the moment you can hardly breathe
Wondering was she really here?Is she standing in my room?
No she's not, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....
When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The giving up is the hardest part
She takes you in with your crying eyes
Then all at once you have to say goodbye
Wondering could you stay my love?
Will you wake up by my side?
No she can't, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....
Oooooooooohhhhhhhhh
Now do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Baby won't you get them if I did?
No you won't, 'cause you're gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....
When you're dreaming with a broken heart

Merry Christmas!
Happy Holidays everyone. Since I don't know how to sing and I'm sure no one would be interested in hearing my well, "special" voice, here's the lyrics of one of my favorite Christmas songs. I guess this is how this season should be, for everyone. May you all have a Blessed Christmas and a Prosperous New Year.
Merry Christmas (WAR IS OVER)
by JOHN LENNON and YOKO ONO
So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very Merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong
And so happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let's stop all the fight
A very Merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear Happy Christmas

Whatever this means...
'Cause I sure don't want to fall for you...
But what can I do?
Tom Waits
From the album "Closing Time"
Well I hope that I don't fall in love with you
'Cause falling in love just makes me blue,
Well the music plays and you display your heart for me to see,
I had a beer and now I hear you calling out for me
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
Well the room is crowded, people everywhere
And I wonder, should I offer you a chair?
Well if you sit down with this old clown, take that frown and break it,
Before the evening's gone away, I think that we could make it,
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
Well the night does funny things inside a man
These old tom-cat feelings you don't understand,
Well I turn around to look at you, you light a cigarette,
I wish I had the guts to bum one, but we've never met,
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
I can see that you are lonesome just like me,
And it being late, you'd like some some company,
Well I turn around to look at you, and you look back at me,
The guy you're with has up and split, the chair next to you's free,
And I hope that you don't fall in love with me.
Now it's closing time, the music's fading out
Last call for drinks, I'll have another stout.
Well I turn around to look at you, you're nowhere to be found,
I search the place for your lost face, guess I'll have another round
And I think that I just fell in love with you.
But what can I do?
Tom Waits

Well if you sit down with this old clown, take that frown and break it,
Before the evening's gone away, I think that we could make it,
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
Well the night does funny things inside a man
These old tom-cat feelings you don't understand,
Well I turn around to look at you, you light a cigarette,
I wish I had the guts to bum one, but we've never met,
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
I can see that you are lonesome just like me,
And it being late, you'd like some some company,
Well I turn around to look at you, and you look back at me,
The guy you're with has up and split, the chair next to you's free,
And I hope that you don't fall in love with me.
Now it's closing time, the music's fading out
Last call for drinks, I'll have another stout.
Well I turn around to look at you, you're nowhere to be found,
I search the place for your lost face, guess I'll have another round
And I think that I just fell in love with you.

| Your Love Life Secrets Are |
 Looking back on your life, you will have a few true loves. You're a little scarred from your past relationships, but who isn't? You expect a lot from your lover - you want the full package. You tend to be very picky. In fights, you are able to walk away and calm down. You are able to weather the storm. You have a hard time ending relationships, even if the other person says it's over. |

Comfort in Your Strangeness
Cynthia Alexander
Woke up this morning I was staring at the ceiling cracks
and roadmaps and highways and landscapes
I have seen
I have been
to places far and deep in my mind
only to find Comfort in Your strangeness
Of moving shadows when I call the wind by name
rushing Firewater in the dark of a cloud
I have seen
I have been
to places far and deep in my mind
only to find Comfort in Your strangeness
we are slaves to the crimes we commit
in fits of passion we shame
we are nothing we are nothing
we are nothing we are nothing but
the dust on Your feet dying to be born again
singing Ether Water Fire singing Earth Singing Air
I have seen
I have been
to places far and deep in my mind
only to find Comfort in Your strangeness
I have seen
I have been
to places far and deep in my mind
only to find
Comfort in Your strangeness

TIME IN A BOTTLE
Written and Recorded by "Jim Croce"
Album: "You Don't Mess Around With Jim" - 1972
If I could save Time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day
Til Eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you
If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then,
Again, I would spend them with you
CHORUS:
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go
Through time with
If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty
Except for the memory
Of how they were answered by you
(Repeat Chorus)

Kailan ka Darating
Kailan Ka Darating
by Wency Cornejo
Dati ay nasaktan na
Ayoko na sanang lumuha pa
Nag-iisip, nagtataka,
Sa'kin kaya ay darating ka pa
Nagtatanong ako kailan kaya
Marahil ay nariyan ka lang
Sa'king tabi ngunit di ko alam
Sana nga'y malapit ka
Pagkat ako ngayo'y nag-iisa
Ngunit ako'y laging umaasa
Balang araw di na mag-iisa
Chorus:
Kailan ka darating sa buhay kong ito?
Kailan mapapawi itong aking lungkot
Ang puso ko'y naghihintay sa'yo
Nasa'n ka o giliw ko?
Ako'y nangungulila sa 'yo
Kay tagal ng 'yong pagdating,
Sa Diyos ako'y laging humihiling
Nagdarasal sana ay dumating
Ano'ng kinakailangan kong gawin
(Repeat Chorus)
Anong kailangan kong gawin
Upang ika'y maging akin
Nasa'n ka na (3x)
(Repeat Chorus)

Tabing Ilog
Tabing Ilog - Barbie's Cradle
Sa ilog ang mundo'y tahimik
Ako'y nakikinig sa awit ng hangin
Habang kayo'y hinihintay
Na sana'y dumating bago magdilim
Sa twina'y kandungan nyo ay duyan
Panaginip na walang katapusan
Ang ilog hantungan nya'y pangako
Ng inyong pagbabalik
Ngiting kasama ng hangin
Luhang daloy ng tubig
Sa ilog na di naglilihim
Sa ilog ang mundo'y may himig
Di sanang nagpalit ang awit ng hangin
Habang kayo'y hinihintay
Mata'y may ngiti, puso'y nananabik
Sa twina'y kandungan nyo ay duyan
Panaginip na walang katapusan
And ilog hantungan nya'y pangako
Ng inyong pagbabalik
Ngiting kasama ng hangin
Luhang daloy ng tubig
Sa ilog na di naglilihim
Sa ilog ...
Naalala ninyo pa ba yung Tabing Ilog na dating pinapalabas kapag hapon nang Linggo? High school days yun. I miss those Sundays... I miss those days...
