I just thought of sharing this song to all of you! My birthday was spent sleeping, attending a mass and an attempt to vote... but apparently... my name in the precinct was nowhere to be found, though some dead citizens' names were still in their list. You could just imagine how I was handling my temper at that time when I was talking to the teachers (with all due respect), gusto kong sabihing "E kung yung mga patay na yan na lang kaya ang pagbayarin nyo ng buwis?"

Anyways, nuff said, pagnilayan na lang natin to... dapat mas mabait na ako ngayun hehe...



Maging Akin Muli
(by Arnel Aquino, SJ)

Manlamig man sa Akin puso mong maramdamin
Lisanin man ng tuwa puso mong namamanglaw
Manginig man sa takot masindakin mong puso
Mag-ulap man sa lungkot diwa mong mapag-imbot.

Kapiling mo Akong laging naghihintay sa tanging tawag mo.
Pag-ibig Kong ito isang pananabik sa puso Ko
Sa ‘yong pagbabalik sa piling Kong puspos ng pagsuyo
Manahimik at makinig ka’t maging Akin muli.

Di mo rin akalain tinig mo’y hanap Ko rin,
Ang ‘yong tuwa at sakit, Aking galak at pait.
Kung lingid pa sa iyo, Aking pakikiloob,
Tuklasin mong totoo: tunay mong pagkatao.

Kapiling mo Akong laging naghihintay sa tanging tawag mo.
Pag-ibig Kong ito isang pananabik sa puso Ko.
Sa ‘yong pagbabalik sa piling Kong puspos ng pag - suyo,
Manahimik at makinig ka’t maging Akin muli.

I accidentaly acquired an mp3 file of this song from a friends thumbdisk... and whadaya know... it made me sob a bit. Maybe I was feeling the sentiments of the song... or God speaking to me in His gentle whisper... that I, be still, and Him calling me back to be in His arms again.
