World of masks

In this world where people have thousands of masks to wear, choosing the right people can be hard.

In a world that doesn't stop on talking, throwing criticisms here and there and placing judgments on each other's back, I just can't help but sigh as these were evident in our day to day living. Witnessing in my own eyes and even with my ears how whispers turn into gossips and how laughs turn into mockery, it's really disappointing. To think that one person they've been talking about has no idea that despite of the good things that she has, still they're making the flaw of the person an issue.

Masks. People nowadays are wearing PLASTIC masks. These masks are mostly happy faces. Obviously, these represent pretension. I can't help but think they're wearing it to look like they care but sad to say they don't. To see these people tearing each other apart is like a farce for me. I can't believe they're like snakes that at one point they're very nice to you but behind your back, stories began to come up and what supposed to be secrets reveal. Why they have to do that?

If I could just put my earphones on then I don't have to endure the drama these people want to play.

My realization: you can't live with your mask FOREVER. For now, it's hard to trust someone knowing some people can't keep your secrets. We all know that masks are being worn to hide their true identity, not to be obvious . 

Lord, I pray for these people. To purify their thoughts and cleanse their heart. That they may see the good and not the bad in a person. To be real in their actions. To mind their own life and mostly, to help their brothers and sisters unconditionally. They may find peace for themselves. 

Well this is all for this entry. Life goes on. Gossips and issues are endless. Judging people is contagious. I just have to enjoy what comes next. Note to self.... I JUST DON'T CARE!

A Cry for Help

As exactly what I'm feeling right now. :-( 
It seems like I keep on asking help. Honestly, I couldn't help but ask God why all these bad things are happening to me. If only I have the answers...

But when I came across this verse, I was enlightened in an instant. I realized that God is with us all the time. All I have to do is hold on and let these things happen for a reason. What touched me on Psalms 88 is this
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lord, you are the God who saves me;

day and night I cry out to you.

May my prayer come before you;

turn your ear to my cry.

I am overwhelmed with troubles

and my life draws near to death.

I am counted among those who go down to the pit;

I am like one without strength.

I am set apart with the dead,

like the slain who lie in the grave,

whom you remember no more,

who are cut off from your care.

You have put me in the lowest pit,

in the darkest depths.

Your wrath lies heavily on me;

you have overwhelmed me with all your waves.

You have taken from me my closest friends

and have made me repulsive to them.

I am confined and cannot escape;

my eyes are dim with grief.

I call to you, Lord, every day;

I spread out my hands to you.

Do you show your wonders to the dead?

Do their spirits rise up and praise you?

Is your love declared in the grave,

your faithfulness in Destruction ?

.

Are your wonders known in the place of darkness,

or your righteous deeds in the land of oblivion?

But I cry to you for help, Lord;

in the morning my prayer comes before you.

Why, Lord, do you reject me

and hide your face from me?

All day long they surround me like a flood;

they have completely engulfed me.

You have taken from me friend and neighbor—

darkness is my closest friend.

God is my only salvation.  I know that these problems are just  temporary. I may now taking bigger burdens this time but I hope that faith will still be here. 
I do believe that this will calm after the storm.
