Filtered Prayers

Music expresses that which cannot be said but on which it is impossible to be silent. 

I've read this somewhere a few days ago. And as I pondered on this, the truth that I have too many things I wanted to express but cannot say, but it is impossible for me to be silent on stared at me face to face. 

And it dawned on me that my prayers to God have been filtered because I didn't want to offend Him by what I thought or feel. 

Perhaps at that time, God was telling me that it is with Him that I am safest and that I can tell Him everything, no matter how ugly and offensive I think they are. He was telling me that He can not be offended by things He already knows in the first place. 

I don't have to filter my prayers anymore, but it will take me some time to get used to it.

Finding Nemo

 Ako si Nemo. 

I lost myself during the pandemic. Now I need to find him. And writing is one thing I know where to start.
