Today’s
Good Friday. This is a time to meditate and a time to remember the
passion of Jesus to save us. Thinking of Him walking and carrying His
cross to the place of His death makes me realize that the burden I carry is
nothing compared to His… or it is even incomparable, yes. All I can utter
right now is “Thank you Lord. Thank you for giving me this final
perseverance. Thank you for making me strong by giving me this chance—to
again prove myself that I am worthy for you.” Then suddenly a though
came: what if this happened to my other classmates? They say God doesn’t
give us matters that we could not handle so be thankful if we are in the
hardest because God knows we can bear it.
Looking
at the positive side of something needs not to be so hard. A man once
said, “When a door of opportunity closes, the other opens.” Often we only
see the closing of the doors. We often forget to look around and appreciate the
opening of another. The only thing is patience. Life is not a race and
life is too short to make it shorter by not doing anything. Just
remember, bigger rocks mean higher stepping-stones.
This
is my second day of mending my broken disposition after the “incident”.
Honestly, it feels lighter now because of yesterday’s heartfelt
tête-à-tête I had with my friends. In my solitude, they tried to seam my
soliloquy and added more of what I can think of in this mess. I am very
thankful knowing that I am not alone on this journey. They may not be
with me walking but I know they’re still around. The only thing I can’t
do now is to look them in their eyes. I don’t know why. I still
don’t know.
It seems very surreal—I am happy.
