Easter it is! A celebration of Christ's Resurrection :)

Well, the Holy Week ended so soon without me noticing it. My days for reflection is already over... I know I still want more, but some things are inevitable and it's time to get back to reality. I know that there will be more tough times ahead...but still, I can't help but be thankful that Holy Week is an event here in the Philippines and a National Holiday. I am one of the lucky people to be a Catholic who is given a privilege to observe the rites freely. I love participating in the Holy Week the conservative way... It made me think of my childhood rival... but oddly, the memory of him no longer make me sad. I know he's undergoing a lot of trials in his chosen path as I do on my own, so all I can do is pray for him, for success in his endeavors. I am sure he prays for me as before, and I am happy to have met him in my formative years. He will always be my idol, a role model in everything I embark on, and a worthy rival. I was my best when we were having a silent healthy competition... but it had to end since time dictated that we part ways and choose our own fields. Holy week and Christmas brings me back to my memories with and against him...those days were so much fun. But at the end of it all, I knew I had to look for a new rival.. a friend, and a worthy opponent in a healthy competition to reach my full potential. Now it is Easter, and God's gift to me? I guess it's something I had all along. The people around me, the ones who were with me through my tough times and happy times... the new people I encounter, and the new ones in the future. I know that they will play I vital role in helping me hone my soul... not only in my talents, but also my maturity as a person. I am thankful that I am actually surrounded with wonderful people... I am only sorry that at times, I was an ingrate and never saw that the people who came my way are awesome people. From now on, since it is never too late as long as people are alive, I will bless each day and thank God for the people who comes my way. And so since it's Easter, this is a photo of my special recipe I cooked for my family. They love it very much and specifically asked me to cook for them. ^__^ Deliciousoooo!!!
