To love is to be vulnerable and transparent.

What is the quality of love if we cannot feel the sincerity and see it's transparency
from the inside out.
Many times, I, myself am afraid to reveal and open my heart.
This is not considered with "true love" only but any form of love whether it'll be
friendship, family, etc.
We're afraid to be hurt and used, so we lie and we cover up with hurtful words and actions that
not only hurt ourselves but others as well.
But as damaging as it can be, it can also protect us too.
We say things that are not true when deep inside we can feel the truth breathing lively.
We don't want to admit because we're afraid that it will change nothing when we want something done and finished.
We walk away because we can't face the truth; the truth hurts.
So what are we really afraid of?
We're afraid that there will be no love when our vulnerability and transparency is revealed.
But, truth is, there can only be sincere love for us when we are vulnerable and transparent
with ourselves and others because we want others to love us for who we are.

To love is to be vulnerable and transparent.
And to love is to be willing to pay the price of getting hurt, forgiving, moving on, and living forward.
To love or not.
It is up to you.

I don't believe anymore...

I've grown. I'm no longer that girl anymore. There are things I used to strongly believe in and hold dear. But with time and life experiences, I've come to release those expectations and beliefs. I will not want or desire. I will not dream about it anymore. I will stand tall. I will go on my own with my own strong hands. I don't believe anymore. I don't believe. I don't. I believe in myself. I believe in independency. I believe in solitude. I believe that I am complete and whole on my own. Anything else add to that is a cherry on the top. I have bigger dreams now. And these dreams won't leave me lonely and wanting. I believe now.

Everyday is a new day. I'm thankful to God that I can always start a new each day  when I open my eyes first thing in the morning.  No one can tell you who you are except for you. Each day, I seek the strength within myself and ask why I'm here. Sometimes it's a struggle, sometimes it's victory. Sometimes I smile because I feel peace within my heart. Sometimes I still cry because I just don't feel the peace completely. To others, it may be such a small problem, but to me, it matters so much. I just can't seem to have my peace like I used to. It's so noisy and chaotic inside. I want to drown myself within the ocean and see if this little girl inside of me can rescue me. No, it's not the little girl that needs saving. It's the little girl showing the big girl how bright this world can be. It's the little girl telling her that everything is okay, don't worry. It's the little girl teaching her to smile and be fre...

Life and God

I love Life and God . Today. I miss Him. I know that He is the only one that I desire and want. I feel empty inside. I know that I can't go on without Him. I know that this is what I want the most . I don't know how I would go on like I didn't even care, or how I breath like I didn't belong to Him. I'd sit in my living room in the silence, and just ponder away. Ponder how I keep living this life, " like this " thinking about how empty I feel and how desperate I am in need of His grace. I am so vulnerable , yet I stand so strong . I am so weak , yet I boast in my strength . I need you to carry me, Lord. Hold me through this, and lift me up. I need your Love and Mercy. I need Him. I want Him. I've been listening to a song lately. "Remind me who I am" by Jason Gray. Sometimes when I'm struggling , I always think about this song, and I think about who I am to God, and why I am here in this situation. When I lose My...
