Workmates, Friends, Him over the Weekend

October 11, 2013 - Workmates

My weekend started quite early. In our office, we had a consensus decision to have a get-together to unwind. We opted to spend our Friday evening at Golden Bay Resort and Spa, Limao Island Garden of City of Samal. We departed from our office around 3:00pm and arrived at the venue around 5:00pm. It was quite windy, cloudy and drizzling when we got there but it didn’t matter because the view was breathtaking. As for me, seeing the scenery relaxed me right away.

It was a night of food, chat, karaoke and establishing relationships outside the walls of our work. We didn’t spend much but we were able to maximize what we contributed. Each of us was tasked what to bring and everyone complied religiously. The best part was of course the boodle fight which we shared saliva and dirt and karaoke which I was the main performer.

When the morning came, the fun continued. While some, including me, were sleeping, our older companions prepared our breakfast and lunch for that day. We filled our stomach with a very sumptuous breakfast in boodle fight, of course. When we were already full, we didn't miss to swim and make most of the sea water. We let ourselves got wet of the water and enjoyed the early morning sun. When we were tired of swimming, we played 1-2-3-pass card game which we was really fun before we had our lunch. And by 1:00pm, we left the place and brought along with us pictures and memories

As usual, I had an unplanned night out with my closest friends. I was with Norman, Theo and Cre. It is like we are always on the same radar and wavelength. We had our very seemingly endless life conversation. We laughed until our jaw and stomach couldn't take our exploding happiness. We made a toast for career, life and love. This night was good luck for Theo's new career and post birthday celebration of him and Cre. This was one of those nights that we couldn't care less of what was around us as long as we were enjoying and not harming others. 


October 13, 2013 - HIM

Of course, Sunday is rest day and time for God. I attended Eucharistic celebration at St. Jude Parish. I was alone then. However, I opted that way because from time to time I need time for myself to reflect and make conversation with the Lord. I cannot do that if I have a companion. The Gospel on that day was taken from Luke 17:11-19. The priest emphasized GRATEFULNESS on his homily.

My thoughts

I have to be grateful for all that I have and for experiencing life. God has His own of unfolding His goodness to me. All I want to do is to let Him in I should enjoy and savor every single moment and to be thankful for the gift of life, career, friendship and family.
