Twenty-four

Pressure, back pains, and fears
Keep coming these days.
I thought this would be a better place,
Where everything runs smoothly.
But as time keeps running,
my heart beats keep thudding too loud.
Feels like I'm hanging on a thread,
GRACE  keeps me going.

Dreams seem so unclear.
Teardrops of confusion  pour out.
Crickets join me as if they understand me.
Even the stars and moon are not with me.
Searching for their lights but couldn't afford it.
I wanted to walk and enjoy the moment of solemnity.
HOPE keeps me breathing.


Growing up allows me to be the person,
that I thought I couldn't be.
It stretches my whole being, 
widen my persepective, and search for more.
The real meaning of this life: my purpose.
Asking God if he could answer my prayers, 
'cause deep down in my heart.
Is a weary heart.
FAITH keeps me believing.

Discovering the blessing

"People are trying to bless themselves, the fulfillment we're trying to look in work, skyscrapers, in having wonderful spouse, in having children or making a lots of money, the blessing that we're looking for is actually in the face of God. The blessing we need is in Jesus himself." Tim Keller

carefree day

Let your soul wander in the intricate pattern of life, and get lost in the maze until you discover new things, new people, and new dreams. Shut the noise around and fill your mind with goodness, kindness, and authenticity. Listen to your beats and discover who you are.
