I HAVE TO SAY YOU THANK YOU

Life is too short not to be happy. When I first decided to make positive steps in my life, which includes treating each day like a new beginning, embracing life with all of its hills and valleys, which is like a pure light of the rising sun. I knew I needed to do things for me like beads making, card making, scrap booking, sketching... these things make ME happy. God is making my life really happy. I can feel His presence in my daily encounter with Him. Last night, I decided to document my day to day encounter to make a project entitled “365 thankful days”. I want to pursue this project as my way of being grateful in everything that I have. It is so funny on how in your darkest hours; you'll hang on to anything you think will help save you from feeling the despair you're feeling at moments. So, for me, I see to it that I have a tight grip in all the things that I believe that will save me from feeling despair, and that is having Mama Mary, my heavenly mother, my refuge, my consoler and my joy, that’s why I have to say her Thank you.

I HAVE TO SAY YOU THANK YOU

I was so down and weary
I didn’t know where to go
Then you came to me unexpectedly
And took away my sorrow.

I couldn’t believe at first
What was happening to me
I was filled with so much joy
To feel your love for me.

If only I could approach you
Mary, much earlier
I wouldn’t have experienced
The things that I’ve been through.

But still I have to say you thank you
For the trials that came my way
If not for them, I would not know about you
And be what I am today.

Oh Mary please mend my broken heart
Oh Mary do take care of my life
So I wont have cry nor terrified
When I have another trial I wont be alone
For it with be the two of us
Who’ll face all things together.
