HeaRty’s Haven will move to a better place soon 🙂

I was having lunch with colleagues at the office pantry, then Ted was reading out some lines in his computer. And I was like, what? ahhahaha it’s sooooooo corny!

Then we gathered around his area and started to read the other lines from the email that was sent to him this morning. We were laughing so hard… then it made me think…

Hey actually these lines do really work if the person who’s stating the lines is someone you like or interested in… but ofcourse, if you’re not interested at the person at all, when you hear the lines from that person, your reaction will be like “uhhh” “errr” “duh”.

Anyways, sharing them with you.. I find most of the lines brilliant, hilarious, corny & cute!!!

I’ve been receiving text messages from my friend, Kathy every weekday at around 8:30-8:45AM. She sends me bible verses/quotes. I believe she’s a truly spiritual person and she’s influencing her friends to believe in God as well and be saved.

I honestly don’t know where I’m at when it comes to religion. Most of my friends are Christians. Some are Buddhists & Catholics. But majority are Christians.

I think I’m more of an Agnostic person now. I do believe in God (sometimes I don’t when I’m angry hehe). I tried a few years back (2004-2005) to open my heart to Christianity when I was really down and almost gave up on life. I joined bible studies, attended church service… but… it didn’t turn out well. I was not really myself then coz I was down, angry, miserable and yet the ones that I met during those trying times are judgemental & mean.

I did meet a lot of great people too (and I treasure their friendship a lot).. It’s just that the pain that I endured was just too much that time. I think my mistake was I tried to get over my misery by trying to believe in God and I placed my belief on the people who are passionate about that God. I ended up disappointed.

I’ve moved on and I’m happy now. But when the topic of religion comes up, it just reminds me of that experience and I will just walk away and try to be the same person who doesn’t really have a spiritual journey.. I’m scared on that aspect.. I may have wanted to know God more and start really believing in our Lord but.. the experience before was just too traumatic.

Kathy’s messages makes me think that it’s time to give it a chance again.. maybe this time that I don’t have any hatred in my heart.. maybe this time I can truly open my heart and understand who God is… Another friend also invited me to their church next week, a different one from the church I tried to attend before. I think I’ll try it… Let’s see.. Wish me Luck!

Here are just some of the messages I got from Kathy (Kathy, thanks so much for this. I really appreciate the time that you put on by typing all these and sending this to all your friends for inspiration):

Philip 3:9
Not having a righteousness of my own derived from the law but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from God on basis of faith.

Proverbs 2:6
the Lord gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge & understanding. (the closer we walk with God , the clearer we see His guidance).

Isaiah 18:19
the Lord though our sins are as scarlet, they will be white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they will be like wool. If you consent & obey.

Matthew 6:25-26
Don’t be worried about your life as to what you will eat or what you will drink nor for your body as to what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, they do not sow nor reap nor gather in barns & yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they?

Isaiah 54:10
“For the mountains may be removed and the hills may shake. but my loving kindness will not be removed from you. And my covenant of peace will not be shaken.” says the Lord who has compassion on you.

John 12:46-47
I have come as light into the world so that everyone who believes in Me will not remain in darkness… I did not come to judge the world but to save it.

Last week, when I got home, we found out my car has that ff. damages:

• one tire is flat
• big scratch on the left side of the car

When my carpoolmate and I was driving home, we already heard the very weird sound on my car. It’s like the sound of a helicopter. I just thought that I’ll just go to banawe on the weekend as my car is quite old already and might have a problem with the engine or something.

It is a good thing that there’s no damage. Apparently, the helicopter sound is because I’m already running flat. Thank God that we got home safe.

In the morning, we inspected my car and found out that someone deliberately put a big nail on my tire!!! Before doing that, I suppose he/she used the same nail to put a scratch on my car. I’m quite sure it happened on the parking lot of Petron Megaplaza Building because it is where I last parked.

I happen to park at the basement 5 of Petron Megaplaza in Makati. I don’t like the place at all and I’m really pissed off on how Petron has chosen to give our company this space considering that Basement 5 is SMELLY, dirty, DARK, incovenient to go to (since we have to use the stairs) & a lil dangerous especially for girls if we go home late. And because of what happened to my car, I’m really convinced that it is NOT a good place to park.

I went to a vulcanizing shop in Mandaluyong to have my tire fixed. The person who helped me said that the damage is pretty big. There were 2 holes found and it even went as far as having my tire punctured.

While waiting, I decided to make a blog entry about this experience so I took pictures and observed how the guy in shop will repair this.

Here are the steps that the guy did to fix the damage:

• Remove the tire from the mugs

• inspect the tire

• the guy said he needs to create a “tapal” on the tire to cover up the hole. So he prepared it by using this machine.

• Then he applied it to the tire by using this.

With that, the tire’s repaired They put it in my trunk and I’m ready to go.

It costs me Php150 to repair the tire.

My friend asked me if I could accompany him to the game. It was his 1st time and he didn’t know anyone, I tried playing the game once before and decided that might as well play it again (maybe try a different strategy).

I was pleasantly surprised on how this was organized. When I played this before, it was just purely a game. But this time, we were taught on why and how we acted upon a move w/c is really cool. Aside from being able to meet people, we also learned a lot about the concepts of investing & stuff.

Cashflow game is created by Robert Kiyosaki to teach us how to get out of the rat race. Basically, to develop skills on how to achieve financial freedom.

My Auntie Beng is a big fan of Robert Kiyosaki, when I was still in high school, she influenced me to reading his book “Rich Dad Poor Dad”. I was hooked and he became my favorite author of all time.

It’s sad that I think that I never learned the concepts coz I ended up the poorest from the group! I lost the game big time hahahahha! My strategy that time was to invest conservatively… I think the lesson there is not to let opportunities pass.. sometimes we really need to take risks in order to succeed.
