Life Has Remedies

If you stumbled onto my blog because of Chucky Manio's post, welcome.

I decided to keep my other posts private because I do not want to be judged. I am a firm believer of a person's capacity to change, more so in the power of God to change people. If you disagree, you may as well close the browser or the tab that has this blog open. But if you're here and you're reading anyway, then just read on.

I am a writer not because I am extraordinarily good in weaving together words, but I am a writer simply because it's what I live on. Although I am pretty proud of the way I write, because it had been the reason I got hired in several jobs, and my bosses have liked the way I write, and in fact, there are some people who have praised my work, I never claimed I'm the best out there. I am very aware that I am not as smart as one of my best friends, and I am aware that I am not the best there is out there. But I will be discrediting the One who made me if I said that I wasn't good enough. As for tips in writing, thank you, Mr. Manio, you taught me to capitalize my letters again. Though I still do not like capitalizing letters in emails and in comments, I do try to do that now. Thank you for your tip.

Yes, my fiance is still legally married. But he has been separated-in-fact for ten years now. His kids and I are getting along together pretty well. We don't see each other anymore so that we won't be able to have sex and commit adultery. I am holding myself accountable to my two disciplers, and my fiance has agreed to obey, because we have experienced the wrath of God for our sinfulness.

When we decided to obey, God has changed us, and whether you believe it or not, blessings are starting to come our way. Despite Mr. Manio's beliefs that God is just that entity who burns mockers to a crisp, He is not: for He is both Lion and Lamb. While He punishes the sinners, He rewards those who choose to obey, and who, despite the difficulties involved in obeying, persist to obey.

If any of my loved ones see this post, I apologize for the hurt I caused. Because I do admit that at least 50% of the blame for this blog war is on me. But I am thankful that despite people having read about my life which was twisted on Mr. Manio's blog to seem too dirty for words, my friends, and even my boss, who have read the post haven't changed their opinion of me, because I have been open about my life ever since. But if you are one of those who choose to believe the worst of me, well, you are entitled to believe what you choose to. Thank you, though, for at least reading through this, if you have.

Well, that's the end of this drama from my end, I guess. If Mr. Manio still chooses to post about me, then it will be my honor. It just occurred to me that his blog has a high Alexa rank, despite being nonexistent in Google Rankings. With that edge, I guess he'll be doing me a great favor by driving traffic to my blogs. Well, as they said, in showbiz, even bad publicity matters. Not saying that I'm of celebrity proportions, but Mr. Manio's being a web celebrity is definitely going to help my rankings too, so I guess the tide still turned for me, in a way. :)

Thanks for hating me so much as to even blog about my being insignificant. :) Your Alexa ranking will help me a lot. :)

God bless you and your boyfriend Argie, Mr. Manio. :)

Happiness is a ten-fingered word.

A lot of people do not believe in God nowadays, and it's such a sad thing, really. But little do they know that it is He who keeps them blessed. I used that title because I wanted to express that what your hands do, will be the reason for God to bless you.

Whether you help out another, whether you are praying for others, God's goodness just overflows. And it's not because you have done anything, but it's simply because He delights in YOU.

How could you be too sure? Because His only son died for You. And that is something that I find really sweet. :)
