not settling for less.


this afternoon, i was checking out one particular lens that i was going to buy at the end of the month. you see, im having second thoughts because its expensive (i mean just for a piece of glass) and its not really part of my priorities now. i was looking for some other lens that will somehow mollify my womanly shopping cravings (hey ive been planning to buy this since june!) but will not break my pocket too much. i then saw a higher and cheaper canon zoom and the reviews were all good. confusing na ang show when the Lord told me, "Michelle, what do you really want?" and then i went ANALYTICAL again and told Him the pros, cons and other humanistic stuff. the Lord just said again, "what do you want?" so i said okay of course i want the L lens (L for luxury) because its the top of the line! and He goes "then get it." no drama. period. hahahaha. i know its just a lens pero it made me realize again that i should not settle for less. mind you, its NOT perfection. it just springs from the fact that God is THE awesome God and its just simply NATURAL for Him to give His children the BEST -- when we ASK!

summer thoughts


ive just opened my window because its stuffy and i hear some drunk man playing Blue Moon on his saxophone somewhere down below. maybe for fun. maybe for beer money.

a memory from my childhood comes into mind. me, at 8 years old, playing this piece on the piano with my grandmother. it was our favorite.

its been so many years. cant believe im already this old.

makes me wonder whats next. but i just know its gonna be good.

smorgasbord




random pictures taken over the past few weeks.
