Did a lot of mistakes, I know.
I have hurt a lot of people too.
Harsh words slipped from my mouth.
Decisions were made maybe for everyone's sake
Or maybe only for my sake.
I am not perfect but I am forgiven.
I am only human
But I am my God's masterpiece.
I don't have wealth.
I have no power.
I am weak but my God is strong.

Younger or older
It really doesn't matter.
We all have our different journeys to travel.
We all have different decisions to make.
The lesson you got may not be fitted for me.
The loads you got may be heavier
Or a lot lighter than mine.
I don't care if you think I'm wrong.
I don't care if I am being misunderstood.
I am 25.
ONLY 25.
And I still have a lot to learn and to share
With those who dare to care.

Somebody told me I should know better than her because I am older than her. Maybe she thinks she knows a lot of things. So I thought, maybe I should have told that girl that she's only a year or two younger than me. And one should never be proud of what s/he has gained. Or else you have gained nothing but air in your head.

Months ago, I invested in a network marketing. Something I hated before. But when finally learned about something that could really help me financially, I gave in. I don't believe I could gain financial freedom in that business (somehow they're trying to promote that) but I believe it will be of great help for me. Who knows? Maybe my box-of-chocolate days will soon be a memory... Godspeed =)

Friendship has been tested... doubted. I think there are some people who have doubts on me. I think there are some people talking behind my back. I think there are some people talking to me yet a thought against me is lingering at the back of their head. They are human and they are forgiven. I think about a lot of things. I think but I refuse to believe on those thoughts. I stick to those people who keep me. I stick to those who could speak good of my name in the midst of those people who think I am no good. Indeed, I am no God but I am His masterpiece.

I laugh about my writings. My poems were once published in a book (Estacion 11) but I did it even with my shoulders shrugged. I am no professional writer. My grammars, at times, are no good. My vocabulary, limited. I even write tag-lish (Tagalog-English) articles. But still I write. Yes, I write. Never with the intention of catching other people's attention. Never minding the critics out there. I write just for the sake of talking to my inner self and just for the sake of sharing our conversation to those who dare to read. =)

***********************

These are just few of my thoughts.
There will be more.
After all, I am only 25.
