I woke up early despite having slept for only 4 hours from the previous night’s new year revelry. Then again, sleep has never been my ally. So this first morning of 2010 has nothing new to offer…or so I thought.
I swept the floor of the house from the second floor down. Then I swept the garage and the front patio. Next chore was to water Nanay’s plants. I liked the idea of starting the year responsibly. As I was watering the plants, I saw this:
this caterpillar stopped me from what I was doingcall me drama queen, but how often do you see caterpillars these days?it probably fell on the stones from the bushwait, are you still going to turn into a butterfly now that you're out of your coccoon?
Thanks to this caterpillar, a warm feeling swept over me. Somehow, I felt like this year will be much better and kinder to me. I don’t know why, but I do hope so.
I started this digital journal initially for self-expression -- because this is what I do. I write for my profession and for my passion.
Then it dawned on me that what I was doing was selfish.
I found new inspiration in Proverbs 31:8: Speak for those who cannot speak; seek justice for all those on the verge of destruction.
Through the years, I have met people from various walks of life with stories that deserve to be told. Unfortunately, not all of them have the gift of gab. So I presented myself to them, giving them the voice that they need to share their stories. Stories that inspire, cry out, reach out, provide unspoken truth.
