Of Promising Things

#DearYou,

Today, a promising thing was broken because "I deserve a good man." I know I have been writing to you about kindness, about how I am trying to be the best that I can be so when I finally find you, we can be the best that we can be together.

Today, I feel tired, defeated and unworthy. I don't need compliments, I don't need false admiration. I need someone who stays when things are difficult. I need someone who will allow me to be there for him when the only solution in his head is parting.

Today, I write to plead. When you find me, don't ever think that I need you to be the best to be with me. When you find me, believe that all I want is to let you be... with me.

Today, I will keep fighting when the person I was banking on just chose to set me free.

Today, I will fight for me.

Forever, I will fight for thee.

Let me be yours,
and yours, I will be.

Me

The Layers of Prayers

When God answers our prayers, He does not follow the normal FAQ template. What He gives us is a bonus question that tests our ability to think outside of our perceived scope and reminds us that we may not have solved that challenging mathematical equation yet but there is always hope.

The answer may not be clear at present but if we spend more time really thinking about it, we will find the solution , sometimes on our own but most of the time with a little help from God-sent angels that roam the Earth.

So, cheer up, lovers and friends.

We only fail when we stop trying and we only pass when we insist to keep on going.

After all, although our prayers can keep us grounded, it is real faith that enlightens us after the countless times when we feel that we've been blind-sided. 🤗
