Through the eyes of many...

          I'll try to be as clear as possible here. I try to understand people and their origins. I try to look at life through their eyes. I try to love on them and capture the beauty that makes them alive. I know I am not the smartest person or wisest. But what I do have is this mind and heart...I want to understand you all. Every step that I take on campus here at school makes, draws me closer to the students studying with me. I know I can't be in their shoes, or think like them, and talk like them. But I can experience and be there for them when they need me. Maybe it is the complexion of this young Asian American guy that there is a space filled with intimidation. Ha...what is there to be scare of?! My point here is that WE all live life differently. But just take time to see what the other person is going through. Take a look at the unfamiliar eyes and let it soak a little. Don't let the complexion scare you off. 
          Allow every step that you take be a opportunity. Hear the music of the minority, lost, drunk, abused, and even dominant play in your ears. We are all one as Genki Sudo has shown. Through the eyes of many we can change the world. Allowing others to see your view, and you being able to do the same is difficult. But taking a chance and a leap of faith takes us closer to one another. Being able to share commonality and life's struggles is one that we all struggle with. But when we take that moment, just that small moment to observe and soak in the individual's life, I believe that can move us. Just enough, just enough to enlighten us. You see, we all have a spark but where did that spark come from? Who made the spark? Who started the Spark?

I am Blessed...

          The sun rises and we start another day. Another day we make mistakes and goals fulfilled. Dreams are started and a spark is born. We all live with guidance, wisdom, and a sense of direction in life. We all make mistakes and bad choices.  I understand that we are all born into different society sects, different cultures, and different beliefs. We all come from different walks of life. We see life different and experience life differently. We have different knowledge and wisdom of life. May we come to share and build one another through teaching, loving, and respecting one another. 
          I know God does not exist for some people. Its sad to say, but it is true. I wonder how many know the story if Jesus? I wonder how many people are not saved? I want to travel the world love them all. But is that enough? Will it change them? Is it worth it? Missionaries have traveled and evangelized to many unreachable tribes and people in the world. What more can I do if I go. I suppose I am proving to myself and the world that I have a part in it. 
          It is cold and that time of year again. It is when the stocks and businesses sky rockets because people are buying gifts after gifts for friends and family. I suppose the saying, "Money makes the world goes round," is true to some degree. I have not done any shopping yet. My mind is on my family and much I want to get them gifts. But my heart wants something more than that. I hope they understand me if they ever read this. The one desire and best gift I can receive from my family is their love and support in the things that I do. I love them all and would sacrifice anything for them. 
          One of the best gift I received this year is the lovely Natalie Elizabeth Quitasol. God has been good and evident in my life. I have been healed, saved from life threatening accidents, survived countless accidents and injuries. Thank You God! This lady is amazing. She is intelligent, beautiful, and a Godly woman. She is funny, cooks, eats, and adventurous. She loves diversity and seeks to learn new culture, and new exotic food to eat. Sounds like my kind of girl! That is why I am blessed by God to have this chance with her. We have been dating for 1 month and eight days. We've known each other for four years, but never hooked up. I believe within those four years, God was preparing us for this. Now that we are both dating and more mature, we are both confident in each other. 
          I would not mind spending the rest of my life with her and exploring life with her. To travel and wander the mass Earth together. To eat, drink, and hike the highest peak with her. What more can I ask for! I hope she understands that this is real. Although it seems fast and unreal. This is real and real as it can be. All that we have been through, everything that we promise, all that has been said and done. May we both cherish the hard times and good times together. May God teach us and guide us to be great lovers and fearing God. I have so much to say about you and for you. But I would like to save it all when the big day comes. May God keep you safe and use you to better the Kingdom of God. May he prepare both our hearts to what He has in store for us. May we be open to His teachings and guidance.

May I...

May I have this moment with you, to wander the magnificent wonders of life. May I be given enough time, to soak in all the happiness we had. May the good Lord watch over you, and keep you safe in His arms. May I have the chance to discover this world. May I help you carry your cross to the ends of this world. May the world see the love that we shared, and not our world figures. May the warmth of the sun keep you warm and never cold. May the cool nights give you rest and peace to recuperate. May God's love flood this earth and His people, so that they may see what they all have been missing out on.

Healing days...

Never could imagined to lose you so soon,
Why in haste of a full moon.

Rain of tears fall everywhere,
Some have shoulders, others are in fear.

Singled out by many ideas of this world,
Let no man come to take what the Angels have sung to in ears.

It has been a while since I've written or blogged. This semester has been a roller coaster ride of emotions, relationships, and school work. I am trying very hard to control everything and make everything sound and look good. But I am wrong for trying. I should pursue the peace and quiet time with God. Jesus did the same thing right after he healed the man with the demon. He went to a place of solitude and prayed. Today at Risen King Church of Redding, Ca; Pastor Bill Randall preached on the series called, "Kingdom Tensions."
We live life trying to please and fulfill something. But why do we do that?! Isn't love from God enough? The only fulfillment we need is, to know that we are loved by God! I am guilty at this and am trying to keep this in my heart and mind. This is my last year here, God use me to better your kingdom, teach me, and guide to be a better servant. May my brothers and sisters continue to love you and your people more and more each day. Amen.

Rising tide of Emotions, making its way to this Island.
The full moon guides its path, and night fall cools it down.
Stranded boat in the sea, captain of the ship losing control.
Rising tide of Emotions, making me sea sick.
The Sun burns with fury, as my heart burns with passion.
Simply loving one person, yet that person does not want.

Just My Luck...

I have been told: "Any girl that gets you, will be a lucky girl."

I suppose no one wants to be lucky.
