"How rare and wonderful is that flash of a moment
when we realize we have this real and precious friend."
...and last night i was overwhelmed with the reminder that i don't just have one =)
These are my very close friends
that I had the chance to see again after so many years
...and they are not the only ones.
I just wish i can also be given the chance
to see the others as well.
FRIENDS ARE TREASURES MORE WORTHY THAN ANY POSSESSION.
Grabbing an award from a dear bloggers that I see great posts in.
Yen's Crucial Bliss,
Heart's Heaty Thoughts, and
Laura's Thought of a Career Woman have posts that are interesting and idea forming. They give advices through their personal experiences and there's much to learn from them. I then have this award through them and here passing it on to dear sisters in the blogosphere. It's been a while since I posted awards and I guess I'm kindda missing it. Hope you grab them and pass it on as well:

I woke up this morning feeling light and happy. Because I had this dream of being with my friends and having fun as we used to.
Most of my best buddies already are in another part of the world and I TRULY MISS THEM. But then there are some left here in the country with me. Unfortunately, we all have different responsibilities already that more often than not, we spend our times doing those than being with each other as how it was during school days.
STILL...i believe that we should have time for them. And it's not just for them but for ourselves as well. We cannot just always do things for our love ones. Yes they are the primary reason for living but we can also live with a few hours of that life for ourselves. And being with our friends will be the best time to use it. I am guilty of this neglect, and just yesterday was shaken out of the trance of living in a routine for the past 5 years. "I will have time for me and my friends!" I hope to do so monthly or at least once every two weeks. If only our free times will meet now that almost everybody have our own families.
I guess it's a matter of trying. Glad to say that this coming weekend I will be spending half a day with a long lost friend during elementary and half a day with my high school friends. I wish I can also have time with my college friends since they are the closest to me though the others are already in Canada and US. And hopefully, I can find new friends in my newly found circle here in the blogosphere, in my church, in my wedding part-time and in my upcoming employment in a Telecommunication company. THE IMPORTANT THING IS FOR ME TO RECONNECT THE BRIDGES THAT BROKE WITH TIME.
Is this punishment or what?! It's been a week now and I still do not have my pc back!!! But hopefully, later this afternoon it will be.
And I promise to get back to ALL OF YOU dwho are constantly here with me and in my other blogs. I realy appreciate your visits, especially your comments! Now I know that I found friends to be there through thick and thin!!!
THANK YOU!
for this wonderful thurday thingy
visit and join the fun
What traits/characteristics (in order of importance) do you find desirable in a companion and why? (List in order is the only rule, well aside from filling her Mr. Linky for more readers on your post)
- GOD FEARING - always comes first in my list because those who does not will definitely just do and say things that may not be pleasing. Either in attitude, in thoughts or in words...love of God reflects in our persona.
- TRUE - i don not lie and so do not like liars as well. Same goes for pretentious people. I find it deceitful to be someone who we are not.
- EASY GOING - People who are so tight and stressed are not easy to be with, and sometimes the worries dissolves your own happy disposition.
- SENSIBLE - If wit can come along will all of these the better, but not a requirement as long as you're not a toad just staring at me all day long.
The thing is we should match...your personality + my personality = friendship. As one saying says "Birds of the same feather flock together" or "Tell me who your friends are and O'll tell you who you are". Simply because you get along with people that have the same color as you have, or else you both will be miserable!
Yipee! I have another award and I thank dear
