A Clear Mind Sings in the Midst of Trouble

Isang araw ulit na masaya.
Kitang sapat para sa pamilya't
maka-uwing ligtas ng maaga.
Yun lang po ang hiling, Diyos Ama.

Panay ako reklamong mainit.
Kaya pa naman ding magpalamig.
Bulag sa kalagayan ng ilang
ni iinumin walang maigib.

May karapatan pa nga ba kong
mag-aksaya ng tubig?

I’m too scared to think about
what the future may hold.
As if nothing feels right,
everything seems out of control.
When most of my goals
were deemed to be impossible.
TO KEEP BELIEVING IN MYSELF
& BE…

Panginoon...
Tulungan Mo po akong harapin,
mga nakalaang kalungkutan.
Patnubaya't turuang sinupin,
pinangako Mong kaligayahan.

Hayaang maghalo ang luha at pawis.
Nang walang makarinig sa'ting pagtangis. 
Kung para sa pamilya’y kayang magtiis.
Di mapapagod, mabigay lang ang nais.

Salamat po Inay
dahil palagi kang nakagabay.
Mabalewala ma’y
wala paring sawang umagapay.
Busilak mong puso
na saki’y palaging naghihintay.
Walang pagod sa pagdalangin
para saking tagumpay.

…

Try to USE most of your TIME
FOR LOVE and contentment.
INSTEAD OF wasting it on
anger and DISAPPOINTMENTS.

SILENCE eases my pain
more than
those who care about me.

I am brave enough
to share my pain with the world.
I trust someone
will be there for me in the cold.
I'll leave my troubles
and melt them with positive words.

I've strengthened faith,
as nothing compares to …

Sometimes…
Sadness makes us feel like we are writers.
One who can easily express all the heartaches,
and put all unseen struggles into letters.

So that anyone who cares
CAN LEARN FROM OUR EXPERIENCES.

Most people don't value
the gift of having someone to talk to.

Dear diary, I knew I did my best.
Poured all my efforts but failed to impress.
Wasn’t surprised, don’t need to be stressed.
Another day they missed my worthiness.

Pagod na katawa’t matibay na pusong
nagsasakripisyo para sa pamilya.
Mapahikbi ma’y hindi pa rin susukong
abutin ang pangarap ng buong sigla.

Para sa kaginhawaan,
nakangiting magsisikap at magtitiwala.

Oftentimes, sincere regrets reveal
the beautiful side of forgiveness.
That brings freedom, comfort, and unseals
the heart from depression and sadness.

Welcome the warmth of May
with more perseverance and calmness.

Let’s enjoy love and success because
that’s what God promises.

Keep holding onto faith
in the midst of this heat and tiredness.

Rem…
