Yet another simple and sweet early morning surprise from yet another sweet and creative office mate – an origami tulip and box (Thanks, Ms. Faith!). 😀
Oh, how sweet it is to be loved by them! 😉

A Simple But Sweet Token
Look what I found this morning on my office desk (he wasn’t able to thank me personally because I had to leave exactly at the end of my shift yesterday and he has an after-work tutorial to attend to, this was what I saw first thing today)
– a simple yet creative art work/token of gratitude from one of my office mates (Thank you, Mr. John!).
Ahhh yes, simple things never fail to make my day bright and make me smile the sweetest. 😀
Thank You, Father God, for surrounding me with the sweetest office mates. You know how much I love having them around.
P.S.
Just in case you are wondering what that one peso meant, we have an “English only policy” inside the school premises. Anyone who violates it will have to pay a fine of P1 per Filipino word. 🙂
* salamat – thank you
Teardrops On My Guitar – Not
Variation of a G Chord
“Music heals the soul.”
Yes, I know all too well how overrated this phrase may seem, but it never ceases to remind us the part that music plays in our lives – a big part.
Just like art and writing, music can never be out of the scene. I believe art, music, writing, literature, and poetry are all entwined to create beautiful masterpieces that speak to and connect with the soul.
So, here comes my baby girl. 🙂
Flicka
She goes by the name of Flicka. I named her after the 2006 movie entitled Flicka, which is about a beautiful horse and a girl and the special bond they were able to form through a series of challenges that they both went through. It was a very beautiful movie – both melodramatic and inspiring.
My brother gave this guitar to me as a college graduation gift back in 2006, supposed to be. But I was never able to graduate on time. So Flicka (my guitar), became my best friend instead. She has been my best friend for 7 years now.
She does carry some ‘scratches’ all throughout those years and like me, she has lots to say about those ‘scratches’ too. That is, if she can only talk or write. But one thing’s for sure, they are good stories, for the most part. 🙂
“Fix Your Eyes On Him”
I was randomly searching bible verses over the internet to get me through the day when I came across a picture of a woman looking upwards and a bible verse from Hebrews 12:2 that says:
“fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before Him, He endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
I was simply not just motivated by the verse, itself, but the photo of the girl as well which made me create this art work.
I hope I have made even just the slightest improvement when it comes to rendering.
