t stuff that 'iloveyou' can't say

53 ready. set. steady.
I am getting used to this feeling. It recurs in the most unexpected time. When we have realized that we should be strong despite of this separation the longing shakes its mouth to let us know that it is still there biting and we feel the bleeding once again.

Good thing it lead us to a lot of realizations. This has taught and still teaching us a lot of good stuff. Keeping the faith when everything seems to be uncertain, believing more and more in God like we have never believed like this in our existence, giving each other the utmost value because we are reminded of the times that we are still together, (in my case) being faithful to somebody that I am committed to (thank you love, thank you Lord), trusting each other even better while losing all fears, the power of reassuring, carrying each others burdens while taking turns on who indulges sadness and who dispenses encouragement immediately, getting more involved in each other’s affairs, disregarding distance and time zones, being persistent in prayer and in convictions, fanning the flame of our future, knowing what we want and sticking to it like super-glue, knowing God more and more (which I am mostly happy of), and it’s your turn to say what I have forgotten.

Love, we only have 10 days more before 6 weeks, which is the least processing time of a prospective marriage visa. 85 days… day 53… 10 days more… Let me read the second paragraph again.

I am holding on love. And I know you are too. Wherever this would lead us, whatever happens, whenever God wants to, we know that this countdown has already served its purpose even if we’re only halfway through.

Maybe God wants to know how much and how long we can hold on to him.

    like i said yesterday...

    maybe we are being taught to savor salt and relish its feel on our wounds, so that we will know the value of togetherness when we finally live life as one.

    sometimes, i get dishearterned, sometimes, i doubt. but we are not allowed to wallow in these destructive feelings, right?

    we have a God that listens to us, and who will fulfill the desires of our heart.

    hold on, tight and strong. (kahit iyak ako ng iyak)
