HOW TO BE SUCCESSFUL EVEN IF YOU FEEL DISHEARTENED?

Expectation....one positive word...but gives a negative impact if the one who expects falls short of her own expectations.

It's good to have expectations in life. Expectations make us move and carry out our plans. It's the moving spirit within us. Life without hope is dull and boring. If we have lots of things to expect in our lives, we become alive and active.

But what if you fall short of your own expectations? What would you do? Would you take your own life? Would you feel like you are  so hopeless and cannot do anything to stand up and live again? Definitely, it is NOT  a good attitude.

Why not read this passage?

And feel within yourself that your strength comes from GOD, and that no matter what happens in life, you are going to continue what GOD wants you to do and what you plan for in accordance to the laws and commandments of the TRUE LIVING GOD.

I just read the passage and told these to myself. My feeling gets  much better now.

A BIRTHDAY PRAYER from a friend on my birthday

This is one of the special gifts I have ever received on my birthday, January 11th, 2012.

This came from Ms. Sahlee Talampas, one of my friends on facebook.
http://youtu.be/KJ-S85PogS0

WHY WAS I BORN?

Sunday. 10A.M. 
January 11th
Guinobatan, Albay, Philippines
I was born.

According to my mom's account, I wasn't crying when I came out from her womb. I was black or shall I say blue. I didn't utter any sound. Because of fear that I was going to die, my grandmother brought me immediately to the seashore. My grandmother from my father's side ran along the seashore against the wind current so I could be suffocated. In that case, I could utter something, if, not cry. Luckily, my grandmother was successful. I cried out loud after some minutes of running. 


They asked the midwife what the cause could be of my bluish color, but the midwife suggested my parents to bring me to the nearest hospital.

Many doctors, one or two were specialist, justified that I was a blue baby.
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/blue+baby 
"blue baby

n

(Medicine / Pathology) a baby born with a bluish tinge to the skin because of lack of oxygen in the blood, esp caused by a congenital defect of the heart"

Doctors told my mom that I was born with a congenital heart disease. An online dictionary defines CHD as follows:
http://encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com/Congenital+heart+disease 
" Congenital heart disease (CHD) is heart disease in the newborn, and includes structural defects, congenital arrythmias, and cardiomyopathies. CHD is a defect of the heart that exists primarily at birth, and can describe a wide variety of different abnormalities affecting the heart. CHD occurs when the heart or blood vessels near the heart does not develop properly before birth. Therefore, the heart does not pump because it is not completely developed. Also the blood flow is obstructed in the heart of the vessels nearby, causing an abnormal flow of blood through the heart. Blood flow obstructions put a strain on the heart muscle causing the heart to work harder and beat faster. Abnormal blood flow usually occurs when there is a hole in the walls of the heart and may be an abnormal connection between two arteries outside the heart."


Since then, my mom didn't rest. She tried to look for some medical help. In fact, we went to many places just to look for a heart specialist, a cardiologist. We found someone in Laguna, Philippines, but he was asking for oodles of money for my surgery and operation. That's the time when my dad told us to have STRONGER FAITH IN THE ALMIGHTY because GOD IS THE ONLY ONE WHO GIVES US LIFE AND HE IS THE ONLY ONE WHO TAKES IT AWAY. We prayed lots to our Almighty Father.


I grew up with lots of drugs and medicines to take. I grew up with my own medicine cabinet. I usually brought aspirin with me to school or to church whenever I needed to go to these places. I was too bony, just like a skeleton when I was in grade 2. Dr. Jose Felizarta advised my mom NOT to send me to school anymore if my parents wanted me to be alive.

Doctors also advised my mom NOT to let me work very hard. They also told my mom NOT  to make me suffer from a lot of stress. They also mentioned that my disease could be cured, but at the age of 25 this would come back. And if my heart attacks came back, my disease would be incurable.


To make my story short, I was hospitalized again in 2002. My system was bogged down. I was admitted at the New Era General Hospital, Quezon City, Philippines. Dr. Ong, a kidney specialist, was the one who assisted me. He said that I needed to undergo an operation, but the chance of surviving would be 50/50. I told Dr. Ong that MY GOD COULD GIVE ME 100% LIFE OR 100% DEATH.


He said it was impossible to survive without any medical help. Dr. Ong explained that I was suffering from Nephritis. The online dictionary defines Nephritis as follows:
" Nephritis is the most common cause of glomerular injury. It is a disturbance of the glomerular structure with inflammatory cell proliferation. This can lead to reduced glomerular blood flow, leading to reduced urine output (oliguria) and retention of waste products (uremia). As a result, red blood cells may leak out of damaged glomeruli, causing blood to appear in the urine (hematuria). Low renal blood flow activates the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), causing fluid retention and mild hypertension. "


Nephritis was the reason why I couldn't pee. My body couldn't excrete and couldn't expel my waste. I was paralyzed in 2003. 


Every time my birthdate, January 11th,  passes, I always get very, very sick. I am just here inside the four corners of my room, can't explore anything outside, can't meet people, and can't enjoy. In fact, I always ask GOD.
" Why was I born?
   Why did YOU allow me to be borne ONLY to suffer lots?
   Why of all people on Earth YOU chose me to suffer all these sufferings? I'm not JESUS. I'm not good. I'm not as patient as YOUR BEGOTTEN SON. I am just a simple person. I have no power, no wealth, no treasure. I AM JUST NOTHING AND SICK. Why did YOU CURSE ME, FATHER?"


Often, I ask GOD the WHY's. Often, I talk to my Father. Very often HE answers me. HE GIVES ANSWERS IN THE FORMS OF MESSAGES, PREMONITIONS, EVENTS, AND HAPPENINGS AROUND ME AND ON EARTH.


My dad, mom, Andreo and Bern are all gone. They all passed away, even my favorite uncle Papa Boy. The two children suffering from a Congenital Heart Disease who were lying with me in the hospital, as I remember, when I was in grade two died at that hospital. I was lying in between. People who suffered from a renal failure who I knew and had undergone surgeries and dialyses all passed away. 

Here I am, still alive and can still sing praises to my Father who gave me a Congenital Heart Disease that affected my kidneys and my blood that gave me lots of food allergies and the weakest body. I was born sick. Still I am very, very sick. But I still have the voice, body, life, and strength to be used in GLORIFYING MY FATHER. 


I came out from the womb of my mom sick and nothing. I WILL GO BACK TO MY FATHER IN HEAVEN VERY, VERY SICK AND NOTHING. BUT I KNOW, HE IS GONNA TURN ALL MY SUFFERINGS INTO JOY AND ETERNAL LIVING and MY FATHER WILL CHANGE MY WEAK BODY INTO IMMORTAL ONE COME JUDGMENT DAY for MY FATHER WILL BESTOW ON ME LIFE EVERLASTING!

DISTANCE NEVER MATTERS

 http://youtu.be/tvFqPrx_7Xc

She's my best friend, LauraTrejo since 2007. She lives in Alabama. I live in the Philippines. 

How did we become friends? Well, because of technology, it's not difficult to be friends with someone you have never met from the time you were born. That's what had happened between me and Laura. We never met personally. I don't even know her personally. Same thing as she doesn't know me, too, personally. But we became friends, the best of friends, that when Snapvine was going to be shut down, Snapvine was where we became friends, I asked her to  keep in touch with me. I thought it was impossible to do that since I was very sick that time. I think, Laura, is the ONLY PERSON ASIDE FROM MY FAMILY WHO COULD ACCEPT A VERY UGLY PERSON LIKE ME ESPECIALLY WHEN I WAS BLUE ( as in having blue skin, I was a blue baby, and still a blue woman from time to time) AND HALF PARALYZED AND WAS TRYING TO BE ALIVE! Laura, from across the globe, came into my life to give me reasons to live, to explain why those things were happening to me. She even recorded some of her advice and inspirational speeches for me just to help me through, to help me survive those hard times.

Since then, I haven't done anything for my friend, Laura. I think, I am not a good friend to her. Even if she offered help, I ignored and refused because of my very hectic schedule. We have different body clocks and time to follow. I don't even have much time for socialization and for making friends. But my friend, Laura, is not a kind of person who is demanding and discriminating. She always understands my situation. She's always around for me. She always has time for me even if I don't have time for her. She's so cool, so thoughtful, but NOT bossy. I am so free with her. I enjoy my freedom within our friendship.

And that's how I know about friendship. Every party must enjoy freedom. Even if we are binded by the so-called friendship, still, each one of us has our own life to live. We must breathe. We must have fresh air. We must NOT be suffocated in any relationships that we are into.

Today, I felt like, I wanted to do something special for my friend, Laura.  So here it is 

http://www.facebook.com/onlinetrainer#!/photo.php?v=350366664976738

But she's a woman who is always full of surprises, so she surprised me with this

http://www.youtube.com/user/Laurita1971

We are very far from each other. We are over mountains, oceans, and hills. But long distance is never a hindrance to express our love for each other. I thought, I would be the one to give her a special gift, but, she gave me more than I gave her. She always does.

If we can only spread this kind of love and friendship all over the world, there will be no conflicts and no wars. 

I just pray that our friendship lasts for a lifetime.
