Passersby

One of my outlets in expressing my emotions and sentiments is to put it into writing the way I feel. Afterwards, I felt relieved and comforted. 

I wrote this one way back in 2011 where I was at the lowest point of my life. I have friends and family around me, but there was this part of me that was missing.  I still feel alone that time and I was burdened with decisions that should result into positive outcome.  My world turned up side down. To release the pain, I cried in a room where I was the only one to see my tears. The only weapon I carried with me was Prayer. 

I solely talked with the Lord.  I know He is testing my faith. I know He is trying to make me even braver, even better and even stronger.  God never fails to listen to my prayers.  All along, He guided me. And I know that I can surpass all the things that will come my way.

God has his own way of teaching us the lessons of life. Certainly, I've learned those lessons, some in the hard ways and some in a loving manner.  

I was inspired to write this down to share how wonderful it is to have life. How inspiring it is to live life.  And to tell everybody that God is good all the time. God is always around us.  We may not feel it, but those travails are His ways of embracing us to help us understand why we live in this world.

I am hoping that this will somehow ease the pain in your hearts and be able to live life in a more profound way.  While there is life, there is always hope and there are thousand reasons to live and to love.

===============================================================

We are all passersby in this world.

We are travelers..

We are passengers...

We are learners...

We choose the road we want to travel

and fuel ourselves with courage and determination

as we drive through the rocky streets 

and smooth highways of life.

We follow the traffic lights in every corner 

and obey road signs that guide us

to make the traveling easy.

We go for every opportunity that will shape us 

and helps us grow to be a good person.

We stop when we are confuse 

and do not know where to go.

We look and we search for a better world, 

a nicer and safer place.

We listen when we want to learn, 

when we want to grow deeper as a person.

We go right and left to see which

of the worlds are better.

We take U-turns to go back to life's greatest memories.

Sometimes we are caught with life's violations

but we can always have the chance 

to improve and correct ourselves.

We pass through life's best places 

and bumped into different people.

We argue.

We fight.

But we compromise.

We go fast when we care less about the world 

and wants to escape reality.

But we go slow when we want to savour

the things that make us happy.

We ran out of gas when we lose faith in God

but we can always refuel when we go back 

into His loving and saving arms.

We cannot enjoy our journey in this world 

when we carry excess baggage.

Remove hatred in our hearts.

We should carry an extra wheel 

of forgiveness and love. 

We pass across the abundance of nature.

We meet the people that we consider special to us.

We become what we are because of

what we've been through.

We become the person we want to be 

because we put direction in our lives.

We are a person with vision and strength.

We learned the lessons in every step we take.

One of the lessons in life is to dream.

To have hope.

To appreciate everything around us.

To love and to care the people dear to us.

We are passersby in this world.

We don't own the things we see 

and the people we deal with.

They are all part of our journey.

Be thankful and be grateful for the gift of life.

Live as if it is your last.

We only have a single chance to see the glory of life

because we come to pass in this world only once.
