REDEMPTION

Perhaps, one of the best moments I spend in my life is having coffee conversations. I was recently at a Starbucks joint in Ayala with one of my very good friends Riabelle. Her earnest comment toward me was that I seemed to have lost the gloom she used to notice in my aura. She said I look happy! I told her , one day I just decided to disentangle myself from my insanity & melodramas and I realized that THERE IS MORE TO LIFE. Needless to say, I am looking forward to 2012 positively.

I remember telling one other good friend and my constant seat-mate Cyra, that in the coming new year, my resolution would be to fulfill my previous resolutions in the past years. I also told her that I will do my best to see only the goodness in people. I will entertain more positive vibes in my life, because for quite some time now I have been wanting to do a complete makeover of myself, from who I am into who I should be. Who I am should be somebody better.

The following lines to a song represent my thoughts toward my 2011:

"maybe redemption has stories to tell;

maybe forgiveness is right where you fell;

where can you run to escape from yourself?

where you gonna go? where you gonna go?

SALVATION is here..."  

(I Dare You To Move - SwitchFoot)

Spur of the moment, during the Christmas week, while we burnt our hours at work, my blog mate Gracy, asked me a question she was also asked to answer. If there is one word you can pick to describe your 2011, what would it be? I choose...REDEMPTION!

My 2011 was very life-changing. I died so that I can truly live...
