Creative Thoughts

I witnessed an event last night that God really blesses those who know how to thank Him back for all the blessing He is giving.
I was attending to our small store while watching the episode of Game Ka Na ba whose guest was someone very religious.
In fact, at the beginning of the show he already mentioned that he is giving 10 percent of whatever money he can get to his churches that will serve as his tithes.
I almost dropped my jaw, when at the end of the show, he finally took home a 1,000,000 pesos straight from banker.
It was so amazing cause the money or options left are very big amounts. In short, he won’t lose anything.
The options left were two hundred thousand, five hundred thousand and 2 million pesos, if I am not mistaken.
In the end, the two options left were two hundred thousand and 2 million pesos. He was offered one million pesos and he then decided to go for the one million and not leave his faith to uncertainty.
It appeared to be a very good decision cause the case has 200 hundred thousand on it.
See? It was really amazing, and somehow you can feel God’s presence. Perhaps it was His way of telling me, that good things happen to people who know how to thank Him.
In the bible, it is said that only God gives us the ability to produce wealth and everything that we have, is from Him.
One way, of showing our love and gratitude to Him for everything He is doing us, is through giving Him at least 10% of his share from salary or any financial venture.
The hubby is a strong believer of this. He keeps reminding me that I will really be amazed at how fast blessings can come if I learn to establish this as a habit. He also said that even if God may not give in the same terms, like monetary or material things, he surely will give other great blessings such as good health, security, protection and favor above others.
I also learned that giving tithes is not all about getting more. It’s more on showing God that we are thankful for having all the things that we already have. It’s a simple way of saying thank you.
Even in real life, if someone gives you things and you don’t show gratitude, would you still want to give?
I doubt so. So, this year and the next to come, I want to make it a habit to give to God first before anything else.

I love this picture together with my family. We don’t have a very good camera, so we don’t have much photos together. We just use our cellphone with cam which doesn’t have a very clear shot.
Plus the coverage is very limited. This photo though was taken from my cousin’s digital camera which takes very good shots.
Surely, all my responsiblities as a wife, a mother and an employee has taken its toll on me. During my day offs I’m usually at home taking careof the little one, or doing some house chores.
I wake up early at 2 am and then go to work and go home every 12:00 noon. That’s my lifestyle now. Not so very good huh. Though I really try my best
to sleep early, usually at 7 pm if I’m lucky so that I won’t feel sleepy during my duty. What I like about the schedule though is it seems to be very fast for me, that I don’t notice the time and little do I realize that its already time to go home.
I sometimes forget about myself, but I try to remind myself to take care of myself also and not to forget to nourish and enhance myself so I won’t feel burned out despite of all these things.
I should also be reminded by my conscious to make sure i eat well, have enough sleep and adequate rest.
Surely, I don’t need a diet pill. What I need is a supplementary diet that can help me gain weight and achieve optimum health.

What am I up to? I’m busy right now, updating my celebrity blog. It’s just a new site. Actually it was started some few months ago, but I started to work on it, just last month. I am getting a very good response from it from people. People have been coming over to read my chikkas and updates on their favorite celebrities. It takes diligence and discipline for me to research all those stories and photos, to finally upload them, to visit other sites, and edit photos and all those maintenance that has to be done for a blog to become successful. You know how much I love celebrity news. It’s one of my passions.
But, I still try my best to post here also, so I wont leave my readers and friends behind.
You might wanna drop by to get some interesting news about your favorite stars? If you want to exchange links, just leave me a message in that site.

FAMOUS CIRCLE – ENTERTAINMENT AT YOUR HAND

You’re never alone, I’m always near,
When your troubled, down or blue.
All you have to do is call me,
I’m always here for you.

It doesn’t matter where I’m at,
It doesn’t matter when.
When you need someone to talk to,
I’m here to be your friend.

If you need someone to hold your hand,
or a hug to say I care.
If you need a shoulder to cry on,
for you I will be there.

So never think you are a burden,
when the weight gets to be to much.
You might find if look hard enough,
a good friend could be the right touch.

You’re never alone, I’m always here,
through the good times and the bad.
I’m always here to be your friend,
I don’t like to see you sad.

As I am writing this, this will be the 424thth post that I will create for this blog of mine, which has been a source not only of income but of friendships, connections, outlet for expression and everything else I could ever think of. Blogging has brought a lot of good things for me. To think about the immaterial things it has given me, I am eternally blessed to have discovered this one outlet of writing my deepest thoughts, sharing my experiences and discovering my real identity.
Truly, blogging is a great great hobby, and I am enjoying it. I am not pressured in making this a real success or a really popular blog. All I want is something to do that makes me happy and passionate. I want to thank all my blogging friends and every one who has been visiting my site and reading my posts. Thanks to all of you. With blogging, everyday can be a friendship day for you and me.

I call her Ate Khen. She’s my cousin whom I haven’t seen for 10 years. The last time I’ve seen her was when I was still in grade 6. Now, I have my own little kid and she finally went to us and visited us. She had a vacation all by herself, and decided to tour cebu and bohol. The first time I saw her was quiet awkward cause I imagine the time we haven’t seen each other. We were still little kids back then. Now, she is a grown up lady, who is now 24 years old. She is a very matured person when it comes to her thinking. She works in a bank, and at her age she has saved some money for herself already, and bought things for her family and herself. I admire her simplicity and her outlook in life. She is a religious woman and she even desires to be a nun. When she came, she had lots of pasalubong for us. She gave me and mom a t-shirt and a coat, and she brought a lot of food delicacies from Davao. She started talking about some topics related to banking such as Outer Banks rentals, interests and rates of loans, the nature of her work among other informational topic and was just blank since I have no idea about those things. Ever since, I have always been disgusted with numbers and mathematics. I’m not a number person, unless, your referring to money. Lol

This picture was taken at the Northwing of SM mall just this week. My hubby accompanied me to the mall to buy my eyeglasses, since I have been
constantly complaining of head aches and pain around my eyes for the last two weeks. He has been telling me many times in the past that I need to buy one, for protection. I never listened though, thinking its just another spending which was not immediate at that time.
But when I started to feel the pains, I thought it could have been better if I bought my eyeglasses earlier.
Well, anyway, I have it now. Good thing the doctor from executive optical said that my eyes are okay and I still have 20/20 vision.
It’s just fatigue from my work that’s the culprit. I admit, I overused and abused my body, not only my eyes.
I just realized now, that health must be a priority for working people like me. What’s money if your health is failing. And to add to that, if you are healthy, money will follow because more opportunities will come to you.
I really enjoyed that simple break of roaming and wandering around the mall after we bought my eyeglasses, which doesn’t have a grade but has UV protection to protect my eyes from radiation. The hubby also bought a new sunglasses for himself.
We even stopped by a car show, where the cars are really so beautiful and all of them looks so elegant. Though I know having a car is not easy too, cause you have to think of a lot of things like the auto insurance of the car, the gas for maintenance and every day cleaning. You even have to bring it to the car wash at times. With the good turn around of opportunities in our family, who knows, we might be driving our own for the next years to come.

The Sombrero Galaxy – 28 million light years from Earth – was voted best picture taken by the Hubble telescope. The dimensions of the galaxy, officially called M104, are as spectacular as its appearance. It has 800 billion suns and is 50,000 light years across.

The Ant Nebula, a cloud of dust and gas whose technical name is Mz3, resembles an ant when observed using ground-based telescopes.. .

The nebula lies within our galaxy between 3,000 and 6,000 light years from Earth.

In third place is Nebula NGC 2392, called ‘Eskimo’ because it looks like a face surrounded by a furry hood. The hood is, in fact, a ring of comet-shaped objects flying away from a dying star. Eskimo is 5,000 light years from Earth.

At four is the Cat’s Eye Nebula.

The Hourglass Nebula, 8,000 light years away, has a ‘pinched-in- the-middle’ look because the winds that shape it are weaker at the centre.

In sixth place is the Cone Nebula. The part pictured here is 2.5 light years in length (the equivalent of 23 million return trips to the Moon).

The Perfect Storm, a small region in the Swan Nebula, 5,500 light years away, described as ‘a bubbly ocean of hydrogen and small amounts of oxygen, sulphur and other elements’.

Starry Night, so named because it reminded astronomers of the Van Gogh painting. It is a halo of light around a star in the Milky Way.

The glowering eyes from 114 million light years away are the swirling cores of two merging galaxies called NGC 2207 and IC 2163 in the distant Canis Major constellation.

The Trifid Nebula. A ‘stellar nursery’, 9,000 light years from here, it is where new stars are being born.

The mind is more powerful than computers. When used to the fullest, it can create the most creative, astonishing product that rooted from a humble yet imaginative idea. These are all examples of the products of a creative mind. Just another proof, that the mind is indeed more creative and powerful than we think.
