Just a Thought

My life closed twice before its close;
It yet remains to see
If Immortality unveil
A third event to me,
So huge, so hopeless to conceive,
As these that twice befell.
Parting is all we know of heaven,
And all we need of hell.

- Emily Dickinson

Back in the Fold

No, I have not been rebelling. I just wanted to make a point.

I mean, a couple of months ago I quit on my job as Editor of our parish newsletter. Not because I didn't want to serve anymore, but because people were pulling me in all sorts of directions. One wanted to use the newsletter for political purposes, others wanted to use it to criticize other people, then there were those who just couldn't care less and would just submit their write-ups in outline form and then say "do the write-up" and those who'd get mad because I edited their write-ups. Rant. Rant. Rant. They wanted to take control of it, so I gave them what they wanted.

Anyway, so our parish priest called me up and bamboozled me into coming back as our parish' social communications ministry head, ergo, Editor of our parish newsletter. He said he didn't really like how the new guys did the latest magazine. I could only gawk at the end result. I'm not going to give any comments on it. My lips are sealed... a lot of times. LOL.

Ranting aside. Kidding aside. I know that despite all the other missions I am onto right now. I know I have been called and it's something I have to do... well until probably someone who can take over comes along. Hehehe. And, I guess, aside from the choir I need to do a bit more of service as well. I have been truly blessed with so many things and I think it would be the best way for me to give it all back.

Bahala na si Lord. :)
