ibuhos mo lahat

this day was a tiring and stressful day. i had to worry about the venue of our planning seminar which is on friday. i wasn't able to find a definite venue. i found alternatives but nothing definite. aaaaaah! if i could just scream my problem out loud... well, aside from this problem, i had to attend the ga of all the orsem volunteers. i felt a little bit out of place since the tnt were so cliquish. i loved the film though. the theme, kill bill, was nice and the editing and direction highlighted the beauty of the film more. i just can't help but laugh at the "jolog-ness" of the love story. hehehe. maybe it's part of the film. after the film, we went on to the different committees. i'm still ranting over the t-shirts, though. one of the reason why i went there is the tshirt i paid for. however, the logcom was not able to get one because the stock was not enough for all the logcom volunteers. grrr!!!

well, so much for the day. i really want to share my reflection today. when i was listening to the homily of the priest in the mass during the orsem volunteers' ga, i was struck by what he said. he said when you love, give it all. ibuhos mo lahat. kung magmamahal ka rin lang, wag nang papira-piraso o patingi-tingi. ibigay mo na lahat. sapagkat sa pamamagitan ng pagmamahal na buo sa iba, maipapakita mo ang pagmamahal mo ng buo sa Diyos. tinablan ako doon sa ibuhos mo lahat. paano na yan? wala na ba akong ititira sa sarili ko? it is very difficult to think about it but come to think of it, many i know will give their all, sometimes unknowingly, just because of love. sometimes, wala nang natitira sa sarili kaya talagang kawawa kapag hindi talaga ibinabalik ang pagmamahal mo. but as long as you know that you've given him/her all the love you can give, masasabi mong nagmahal ka talaga.

"if you couldn't love your neighbors whom you can see, how can you love God whom you can't see?" just a quote from the homily.
