Being miles away..

HI to everyone. Funny how I always seem to get back on the blog when I am in a different continent. Asia is where I am at this time.

The bad weather is a staple here..humidity is another, but hey, this is what it is here..just learning to live with it. The typhoon damaged not only homes or crops and properties but sadly also lives. Our hearts and prayers go out to those most affected by the harsh cycle of weather here.

So, here I am, still me after a few months' stint in the US. Lately, I can say that I am happier than when I was a few weeks past. I will leave it at that and not over think things. The healing is about complete but I am in constant prayer and vigil that I do not have a change of heart.

Let me share some very pertinent thoughts that have helped me "make it through the other side" of what I went through. I am in a better place, in my relationship with R. I have gotten to know more about my strengths and also his weakness and strength as well. When my resolve was tested, I remained steadfast and fought for something worth living for.

I have been correct in my thinking that letting love and truth win was the only way to go and save the relationship.

When in despair what might have been invicible and so terrible and heart-wrenching will always fall when countered with devotion, true love and forgiveness.

At a distance, now I see, how what I went through with R, made me stronger. I have gathered the strength (I thought I never had) during my healing. It was never about me, I understand that now. I have seen R in a different way. I would never want to go back to the past, I am so over that. It remains there and buried there. I start new and fresh each day and not fret about the future. I live for the moment. That was the biggest change in me. I was able to let go of memories of the past. I opt not to think about them anymore. Memories are like cobwebs, if you linger on them too much, you get caught up with it and never get to enjoy today. The future is an adventure. I hope I will get to make new memories with R.

Today is good and today is better than yesterday. And that is just fine with me.

I have found a level of peace and a degree of calm. I want happiness in my heart and glee in my life. Nothing in the past is for today. Today is for today. I like today better than yesterday.

Whoever has done me wrong, did me wrong. They will have to live with that. I choose to be happy and true to who I really am.

My fortune cookie once said....Happiness is not a reward...for it is a consequence. I can go along with that.

And I would like to thank those who have sent their words of concern for me. I am alright. I am happier. I take each day at a time; because you know there are people that love us. So we should be happy for the people who are really there for us...we earn merits in life when we do good things for others.

So be assured that I will be posting here again. Healing is an arduous process but when you are strong, you get to see that gleamer of light at the end of the proverbial dark tunnel. We focus and walk towards that light.

Goodluck and see you on my next post....All is good!
