things i learned from national youth pilgrimage...

things i learned from national youth pilgrimage...

a. marriage and sex. sounds totally out of the blue. we had a two by two experience and was able to talk to a couple. we cut the bible, and found a verse about sex and marriage. it's very timing, i am with my girlfriend and we were talking to a young couple. lol! i don't want to expound it but it makes me love my girlfriend more.

b. do not wear shorts. this one is funny. it was second day of the pilgrimage when i wore shorts. i know it's going to be hot and humid day - so i decided to make myself a little comfortable. unfortunately, my girl is not cool with it. lol! i know she's just concern and i somehow realize that. tugs tugs!

c. lower your expectations. the people in guiuan are awesome and very hospitable. unfortunately, the place that we've been to is hot and humid. i was expecting a little comfort but its really bad. given this, i make "reklamo" a part of my vocabulary. lesson is to lower your expectations so that lesser "reklamo"...

d. "God called me to enjoy suffering". this came from weng, one of the inmates in prison that we have visited. those words is a virus that makes me felt so good and how lucky am i to be free and enjoy the outside world.

so far, this is the most memorable pilgrimage. so awesome and so great.
