the mirror

so tell me then,
what is new about the girl in the mirror
is it that she just discovered that high heals make her feel good..
oh...no...she knew that already...
is it that she had a good hair day? mmm ...no..she's had plenty of those...
is it that she's content missing you..perhaps..

i'm staring at her...hoping she doesn't mind..
i don't think she does, she's too busy pondering herself what's so diferent about today.
She's asking her maker what He has prepared for tomorrow...and she's dreaming about that tomorrow..
she wants to pick up her book, send a picture, and say hello..
while i put into words her rambling thoughts.

A good thunderstorm would come in handy...walk in the rain..jump into a puddle and splash the already soaked ground...watch the squirrel run for its life or simple watch her walk by..another expectator...along with the thousand other blinking in the sky...those are the shy one..the ones in the sky, hiding behind a foggy nonexistent wall..but oh, how...special and few they are....

she'll come back from her walk..we'll talk about it...write a book..and hope that you read it.

b-day whishes

long time no see...
but today is a special day.
it's the b-day...hurray!...20 doesn't feel that different..it never does.

i've been thinking..and remember how exciting your b-day was back in the day?
i would wait for it for 6 months..and it would take forever to get here!..hahah
i would wake up at 6 am..and wait in my bed until my parents woke up and came to sing happy b-day.
everytime i heard them move, i would jump under my blanket and pretend i was asleep.

hahah
they never knew i was pretending to be asleep until I told them last year...that is funny.

well, one more year...it was a good one...lots of laughter..a good share of tears...more than enough lessons learned...but the best part...I felt my God holding my hand.
I didn't opened presents today, but i opened so many presents last year...
I got a mentor, a supportive staff that eventually turned into a circle of friends...

Some old stuff broke and i had to throw them away...but it was time for that stuff to go. So, it's all good.

much more happened...but i bet you don't have to read it...
so let me give you the 5 sec version.
My God was more than faithful last year, and I wasn't really that faithfull to him. Still he gives me another year to hold His hand and walk with him.
Can't wait...
new year...here we go!
