Coffee Musings Under the Maple Tree

(Part 14)

 

v True love is forever. Not even death can end it. Physically maybe, but in the lover’s and the beloved’s heart, true love remains…beyond the grave.

 

v Unconditional love is forever. We may miss the one who’s gone ahead of us, but in our hearts and our memory, we are always together…forever loving one another…until death and even beyond.

 

v I don’t want to wake up and remember that you are no longer alive. I still look for you everywhere and find you nowhere. Part of me will never accept that you are not coming back. Missing you is so painful.

 

v “The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.” (Romans 8:6)

Ø  God’s Word reverberates bringing peace as much as pain at the thought that you are gone forever. Until we meet again in heaven, my beloved.

 

v My life was changed when we met but was shaken on the day you passed away. My life was never the same again since.

 


v We did not say “goodbye” to one another on the day you die. Why? Because we will be united again in the hereafter. So, it’s not “goodbye.” It was “until we meet again.”

 

v It was not easy at first. But as days turn into months, the pain of losing you becomes bearable as I realized that it was all my fault. I gave myself too much. I loved so deeply. I learned my lesson, and I forgive myself. As for you, I am sorry and goodbye.

 


v It takes a while until we realize that losing someone was meant to meet the RIGHT one.

 

v There’s a reason to everything that happens in our life. It is for us to discern the meaning and purpose of it all. Pray. Listen.

 

v In the stillness of the night or the cool autumn breeze; amidst the fragrance of spring blossom or the purity of snow in winter, listen to the whispers of God. Silence. Be still.

 

v Our heart may bleed because of such unbearable pain inflicted by someone we once loved. Remember that Jesus shed blood to save humanity. Our struggles and hurtful experiences my mean our own salvation. Think about it.

 

v If we dwell too much on the heartache, it’s like nourishing the wound such that it remains fresh and won’t heal.

 

v Time heals but only if we look forward to what lies ahead. Accept what is now then move on. That’s when time helps to heal the wound of the past.

 


v When a patient is in a coma, which body organ is monitored the most? The heart or the brain? Should it be the same in a troubled relationship? Just asking.

  DELAYED “FLIGHT”: It’s All God’s Plan (January 3, 2024) Almost every Christmas season, DELAYED signs, and worst is Cancelled notice, have become a regular scenario in most, if not all, airports all over the world for both local and international flights. Just recently before Christmas, a good number of domestic flights were recorded in the Philippines that cause quite a lot of different reactions from passengers, mostly of anger and frustration. The stress that the passengers felt was simply indescribable. Imagine all the planning they make like – applying for leave from work; searching and booking for flights, bus rides, and/or sea travel; packing belongings to bring; buying “pasalubong” and gifts; and more things needed in their journey or vacation. In some cases, though, a feeling of resignation and frustrating acceptance were all some passengers expressed bearing the discomforts caused by the delays. Whether out of anger and frustration or resignation and acceptance, no

CALLED TO BE HEALERS TO ONE ANOTHER

  CALLED TO BE HEALERS TO ONE ANOTHER (January 26, 2024)   Reflection on the Gospel (Mark 1:29-39)   Question: Why did Peter deny knowing Jesus three times? Answer: Because Peter was so mad at Jesus for healing his other in-law.   Of course, that was only a joke. It was a joke revolving around the relationship between in-laws. Jesus healed the mother in-law of Peter from fever. The succeeding parts of the Gospel, Jesus continued with his ministry of healing – casting away demons, curing people from various illnesses and diseases, and many more. At the end of the day, Jesus came to a secluded place to pray and commune with His Father in heaven. Then immediately after dawn, Jesus begun his healing miracles and preaching.   We see, however, that at the end of the day, and even before the sun rises at dawn, Jesus come to a place to pray. Note that habit of Jesus – before and after a day’s activities, Jesus always find time to pray.   We may not be “healers” ourselve

  Coffee Musings Under the Maple Tree (Part 19) Reflections by Dharmazeus   Twin flames and deep connection are for real only if the parties concerned are true to themselves. Such that separation becomes only temporary and is meant to understand their individuality better so that when the right time comes to reunite, they’ll be more accepting of each other. Their love for one another becomes deeper and more sublime.   Live the now. Tomorrow never comes, but it offers hope an new beginnings. Yesterday is over, let the memories remain all but reminders of lessons learned.   If one truly loves, silence couldn’t last too long. For a heart who cares and loves dearly will always reach out to the beloved even if the heart still bleeds from the wounds of yesterday.   The heart reaches out and continues to love.   If you feel tired of loving someone, take a pause. Sometimes you might need to walk away. Or distance yourself. Like the waves off the shore, come back and rea
