Love's Fascination...


I found love when I was not searching
I sought faith when I was not faltering
I saw destiny when I was not looking
In God’s perfect plan, I found love
In God’s perfect love, I found you.

I’ve been into places, seeing different faces
But I haven’t found a face I wanted to dream at night
I’ve been up there above the clouds, soaring the sky
But I haven’t gone-sky high the way when I’m with you

Love takes wings and soar me on high
Love carries me at the far ends of the earth
Love creates all higher possibilities
Love gives me the greatest miracle I’ve ever imagined


a love poem for Neil and Jenny....

A Beautiful Soul...

He is there to wake me up each morning…
He is there to fill my day with joy and anticipation…
He is there to create beautiful sketches in my sky…
He is there to sprinkle water when I’m suffering from life’s parchedness…
He is there to patiently listen to my hundred and one story…
He is simply there to remind me of God’s amazing love.

Thank you, Oh Lord, for such a beautiful soul you put in my world.

When you marry...


marry her statistics and your love shall be measured.
marry her mercifulness and you shall be spared anxiety.
marry her success and you shall find yourself competing with her.

marry her passions and you shall easily outgrow yours.
marry her vitality and you shall always be charging your batteries.
marry her practicality and you shall expect drought in your pocket.
marry her simplicity and you shall soon try to escape from monotony.

marry her sensibility and you shall lose your whimsical tendency.
marry her strange and subtle ways ,
and you shall become more ordinary.
marry her charm and beauty,
and your love shall cease when beauty fades.
but marry her heart and soul, and you shall grow old with her.

To Where You Are...


To where you are, there I will be…
Holding your hands and protecting thee…
Watching you grow and making you see…
Life is more beautiful when you came to me.


To where you are, there I will be…
Giving you strength and loving thee…
Sharing your dreams and letting you be…
The light and love that will always sustain me.


To where you are, there I will be…
I will find your soul and start my journey…
I will reach the sky and follow my destiny…
It is You…and only be You throughout eternity.

A wedding poem for Vey and Joey...

Thoughts...


Thoughts that linger, it keep my mind to ponder.
Thoughts that shiver, it urge my heart to wonder.
Thoughts that breather, it put my soul to slumber.

Thoughts from nowhere, recollect the bits of laughter,
Reminisce the pains of a tear,
Overpower the pangs of a dismal year,
Anticipate the joys of forever.

Thoughts may break of rectify me,
Thoughts may curse or bless me
Thoughts may make me an angel or a devil,
Thoughts may bring me heaven on earth or earth on heaven.

Thoughts let me live.
Thoughts let me die.
Thoughts will always be my precious bead.



THANK YOU...

Thank You…When someone utters these words spontaneously and with all sincerity, my heart dances with euphoria. When I give someone a gift, a favor, Or a portion of my precious time, I ought to have something in return. But that something doesn’t have to be an expensive gift, a remarkable favor, or a return for my precious time. All I need to give you back to me is your sincerest thank you.

It’s not actually the idea of expecting always something in return, but it is the remarkable feeling of joy that I get from being appreciated and thanked for. For I understand, the spirit of giving does not end with the gift being given to you. Rather it continues when you give thanks and make another person feel good.

You see, if the human race knows the importance of thank-yous in our lives,we could have prevented thousands of people from being miserable and distressed. We could have put a spark of hope in their lives,by simply thanking them for creating a difference in us. We could have move mountains and lift a soul by our simple whisper of thank you. And perhaps, if all of us take time to make it a habit to say that simple thank you, we could have created heaven in the middle of the world.

That is why, if there’s one word left in the world, I want it to be…THANK YOU!

Roller coaster...


Roller coaster is unpredictable. You get in, you sit down, and you’re strapped on. You’re there for the ride. And then you go up, then you go down, and your stomach feels like it’s falling out of your body. It’s so exciting and you’re scared and you don’t know where you’re going and you don’t know what’s happening next. It just goes around and around and around.

Life is like a roller coaster. You just get on, and you’re there for the ride. You go up, you go down, you make mistakes, you get praises, you feel good, you feel bad, you tell the truth, you tell lies, you get a slap on your face, you get an honest reward, you win some, you lose some, you love today, you will be out of love tomorrow.

Like a roller coaster, everything in life is uncertain. No one stays on top no one remains at the bottom neither one clings at the center. It may not be given as a choice but everyone can have the chance to have a good ride in the roller coaster of life.

Ring of Fate


It’s amazing how events take place and link people to follow the course of destiny. Sometimes, we think why certain people are put in our path and unconsciously transform our lives. Sometimes, we don’t understand why bridges are build to mend broken relationships. Sometimes, we need to cry but we hold back those tears from falling and we ask, why can’t we cry? Sometimes, to forgive seems so easy but to forget is really tough to remember. Sometimes, we question why it has to be this way and not that way. Sometimes, we wish things didn’t happen. Sometimes, we wish things happened. Sometimes, we wish a lot of things. Sometimes, we don’t wish at all because we’re tired of wishing. Sometimes, we doubt whether destiny is real or not. Sometimes, we don’t know if we are living towards our own destiny or going somewhere else. Sometimes, we falter on our faith and slowly cease on hoping. Yet, sometimes hope never totally abandons us. With a tiny spark of hope left within us, we let fate takes its own course because that’s the way life should be. Like the ring of fate, we carry strongly in our hearts the faith that, one day we will all reach the place destined for each one of us.

In Its Own Time...


Perhaps the best way to achieve freedom in your life is to know and decide when and where you want to put your own hole in the sky. Luckily, I’ve seen myself thriving in this dimension. I may had exerted an ordinary effort, or spent an ordinary time, or found an ordinary place, or make friends with ordinary people, yet the learning I’ve had weren’t ordinary at all. Each of us goes through a transition stage. We don’t exactly know what we want, where we should be or what we see ourselves to be. Perhaps, I am passing through that time now. There is this feeling of wanting for more, of giving another best shot, of harnessing what I believe is there to cultivate, of taking risk, of learning more . There are a lot of things I want to do... there is my passion to publish and author a book... there is my vision of seeing myself as a great speaker and trainer... there is my hallucination of being a psychologist... there is my hidden cry to become a nun... there is my desire to be like Ally Mcbeal, the lawyer... there is my fervent prayer of becoming an angel in heaven... so many things I want, so many dreams I wish...thank God, dreams and wishes are freely given! Yet I found myself gasping for air, breathlessly confused of where I am now. It seems like life offers me with so many beautiful things, yet I keep on craving for other things...and I’m afraid to see myself holding with nothing!

Opportunities, I said to myself, are not circumscribed to one soul and so is bad luck. Everyone must have his own chance of taking a win or a loss in the gamble of life and so am I . I know I won’t have it all at the same time but I can have those things in its own time. As the maxim goes, ‘do one tick at a time.” And the flower will die or bloom in its own time...and the bird will rest or soar in its own time...and the waves will rise or fall in its own time...and love will hurt or inspire in its own time...and life will perpetuate or cease in its own time... for everything has its own season, every season has its own dimension, every dimension has its own reason, and every reason has its own time.

So I won’t let that moment slip through my fingers, it may not come to me again. Rather, I would savor its presence while its there. I would take time to smell the roses, or see the butterfly flies, or appreciate the moon and the stars as they shine at night. I would rather talk less and listen more to what the experience is telling me. I would say more ‘I love you,” and more “I am sorry,” even if the circumstance does not require. And mostly, I would give my best shot at life, seize every moment, look at it and really see it and live it and love it --- for it will never come back!


Images Of Love...


I never knew love could be a teacher...it can patiently transform the minds…it can persistently teach the heart with values…it can continuously enlighten the path on life’s highways…it can eternally create marks on our lives.

I never knew love could be an activist…it can confidently cry out to the street his lamentations…it can bravely fight for his dreams and convictions…it can explicitly uncover his pretensions…it can certainly express his noble intentions.

I never knew love could be an artist…it can do charcoal portrait of pains, jealousies, and hurt…it can fill the canvass of the heart with different shades and hues…it can simply draw beautiful sketches of love’s memories…it can interpret the unfathomable ways of love with its abstract.

I never knew love could be a saint…it can bear all sufferings without hesitations…it can endure all pains without questions…it can give without returns and conditions…it can give up his life for his faith and convictions.

But most of all…I never knew love could be you. And that I could love the way I have loved and will always love you!
