Too much beauty

"It's hard to stay mad when there's so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once and it's too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst, and then I remember to relax and stop trying to hold on to it and it flows through me like rain and I can feel nothing but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid, little life. You have no idea what I'm talking about, I'm sure, but don't worry. You will someday." - Lester from American Beauty

So this was the quote that kept on running in my head when I was watching the sunset this afternoon in Ilocos. I can't help but feel really lucky and grateful for all the blessings I have and had. It's a crazy ride but it's always worth it. :)

There is a way to be good again

That pain and emptiness in your heart?

Remember this.

No matter how big the mess...
No matter how deep the hole is...
No matter how hurtful you were...

God will always present an opportunity for you to make up for it.

There is always space to forgive.
There is always room for second chances.
There is a way to be good again.
