RTF-1001 "I LOVE YOU JANICE"


I have never undermined the power of the words "I LOVE YOU" and so much the better when my name goes at the end of the phrase :) this is what i have always held on to whenever i feel insecure and sad and overwhelmed with so many irrelevant things of this world. I know God loves me so much and all His other children but i find it amusing and lovely as i keep coming back to the experience when i've heard those special words through a friend, spoken clearly out in the open, above the noise of the busy place... it was after the very warm hug and the well wishes, the "look" was then followed by the best phrase which has always kept me warm in the coolnees of the place and future "iciness"... i was caught speechless at first and responded with a big hug (this is what i do when i'm overwhelmed by my emotion and cannot express in words how i feel), before i said the words "I LOVE YOU too"... i know i was not brought up in an expressive environment where such words of endearment and praise and appreciation is often heard and said... but that experience brought a change in me, that words are powerful and its worth to let the other person know how you feel when the right moment comes...
until now we are still good friends and we dearly communicate with each other... im always inspired whenever i look at her works, i'm thankful that God has spoken through her and im looking forward to the time we see each other again :)

Random Thoughts of Fondness (RTF )


I've been feeling an overwhelming force of negativity in my workplace these days and i'm just trying to do my best to see the goodness in the work environment.
I came to a resolution that i should counteract the force by dwelling on the positive side of things and focusing on what is on the brighter side of people. I've been struggling on this part especially when other forces are doing their best to make my life miserable as theirs. But hell to them and i'm not going along with them where they want to go and lead me to.
So i thought of coming up with a list of events in my life where it leaves me with a grin whenever it pops into my thoughts, it helps me get through with my gruesome days at work.
As a premise, i begin with the thought that all goodness comes from God above. And that anything good which happens to us is from God, even if the goodness is coursed through a family member, a relative, a friend or even a stranger.
It was qtr before 1am in the first of July when i decided on something new in my life. Something different from the regular thing, something worth looking forward to each new day and be at peace with my Savior at the closing of the day. For me, this is something exciting, humbling, consoling, intriguing and surprising. Somehow, i'm just finding it as a therapy for my ever stressful days at work. I will not be naming people involved, but i am certain that all these are true because im typing straight thru from the deep thoughts of my heart. =)
