For the good part of year 2008 it has been eventful. I thank God for the seasons, that this fallen earth, since the end of the flood, has brought forth change, even though it wasn't made this way.
I wished it would have been different. But I can't say it would be a better year. I believe that despite the way we see how our lives have moved on, perhaps, in our eyes, not very far yet I know in my heart, from the experiences this year, there is so much more that I've learned, because my life has been enriched, no matter what I faced.
Spending time with precious people this year, I know there will be a season we cherish one another, hoping that in the little time and fellowship we had, in the hardship we endure together, in the prayers we commit each other to, we can one day look back and remember, those were good memories because God is always present in it.
I sense that it is time to move on, to close another chapter in my book. So this shall be my last entry, and I'll start next year in another blog.
I just want to end this year saying, the changes have been for good. There were times when I feel I have not measured up, failed and that people I treasure have been disappointed. But through it all, thank you for being my friends.
Truly, I'll like to dedicate this beautiful song (because I was so touched by it!) to those who have gone through this year together, with me. I love you.
I've heard it said That people come into our lives for a reason Bringing something we must learn And we are led To those who help us most to grow If we let them And we help them in return Well, I don't know if I believe that's true But I know I'm who I am today Because I knew you
Like a comet pulled from orbit As it passes a sun Like a stream that meets a boulder Halfway through the wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you I have been changed for good
It well may be That we will never meet again In this lifetime So let me say before we part So much of me Is made of what I learned from you You'll be with me Like a handprint on my heart And now whatever way our stories end I know you have re-written mine By being my friend...
Like a ship blown from its mooring By a wind off the sea Like a seed dropped by a skybird In a distant wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you
Because I knew you I have been changed for good
And just to clear the air I ask forgiveness For the thing I've done you blame me for
But then, I guess we know There's blame to share
And none of it seems to matter anymore
Like a comet pulled from orbit As it passes a sun Like a stream that meets a boulder Halfway through the wood
Like a ship blown from its mooring By a wind off the sea Like a seed dropped by a bird in the wood
Who can say if I've been Changed for the better? I do believe I have been Changed for the better
And because I knew you... Because I knew you...
Because I knew you... I have been changed for good.
