This year end is another tough days for me. I'm losing again my contract job and need to look for one to be able to stay here in the city. Life is not easy especially if living in one of the most expensive city in the world. But here I found life. I enjoyed my independence and freedom here and would love to stay here for awhile. Just a little bit more. I know I will be home soon with my family but let me enjoy this moment of solitude and discovering myself more. I have deepened my faith here and not really depending on others' time just to come to church or any teachings. I came with my decision and effort. Just like yesterday is the concluding and last day of the Book of Revelation class in our parish. I felt awesome for learning new things and fall in love more with Jesus Christ. I felt ashamed that before I thought that the idea that Christmas is nothing without Easter is true but as Father Terrence explained God choosing to be with us as Incarnated Man is enough. He is with us always and that is enough for our salvation. But He is so magnificent that even prove His enormous love by laying His life on us.. yes dying on the cross and proven again as He conquered death at Resurrection. I see now Christmas differently. He is my Emmanuel.
