Blah Blah Blah

Another day where I can't get my thoughts into words. Too much hurt, too much confusion and not enough peace makes writing hard. Today is just one of those days.

Blogging has been hard for several weeks now and it's been difficult to write congruent thoughts without creating a book. While writing has been an outlet for me, it is also a barometer of the stress and strain of what is going on in my life. More so, it is a barometer of where I stand in my relationship with God because when I am trusting Him completely there is a peace around me that is certainly supernatural, but, when I am in the old mode of wanting what I want and struggling with emotions that are neither healthy nor productive, there is no peace and I am a tangled mass of confusing thoughts and feelings. This isn't a good recipe for writing.

First off, I send you my deepest prayers and well wishes. Erica, you are a beautiful and strong young lady. You are also very determined with a strong sense of direction. Don't defeat yourself so easily. Your ambition to go to a major university like Ateneo is something to be proud of and accomplished about.

Life is tough, so we need to make the most of what time we have in this world and make great use of it. As for "blogging without seem like writing a book," that's okay. I sometimes feel better explaining my issues even if they are very convoluted and disorganized. Remain strong and stay positive. Best wishes to you.
