Taking Time and Talking to a Friend

Time has always been an unpredictable element. It goes too fast when you need it to go slow and sometimes, it runs out when you need it the most. I have to smile when I think about time. Most people don't recognize the value of time. I need time to think things through. I need time to heal the wounds I've gathered from a battle. I need time to wait. I need time to decide my faith. I need time ... you need time. 

I've been talking to a friend of mine. We go out at night and talk about time, its value, its importance and how vital its role is in the past and in the near future. We talk about the time when God's power was over us, the time when God lift up our souls when we thought we couldn't get through. We talk about waiting for the right time because we both believe that right timing is everything. When it comes to love, we talk about waiting for that one person who can ultimately accept us with our flaws and the mistakes we made in our past. We talk about waiting for God to introduce us to the one person who will be able to finish our sentences, the person who will laugh with us and cry with us. We talk about waiting for God's signal to say it's finally him, the person who doesn't ask us question because of his faith in us. We have recognize the value of time, and maybe then, things that we couldn't understand can be explain. 

Time has played a crucial role in both our lives; be it in our families and our decisions. Amazingly, we always discover and realize something new at the end of the day. We both have hidden secrets about our families. Probably the reason why we decide to keep it away from others is because we are both scared of the reaction of many. The truth is, its not that bad. We learn to overcome them and we learn to take them as trials with lessons. We both have hidden secrets and the reason why we're not sharing it is because of social condemnation. We both think in the same plane when talking about religion and God. Yes, we love God and we acknowledge him in all our success and failures. We call upon him, praise him and thank him and most of all, believe in him. But the truth is, believing in God and religion is two different things, and for that, I thank this friend for understanding what I actually mean by that. 

To the person I'm talking about, thanks for listening and sharing. Our talks is something I look forward to every week. Let God be the center of our friendship. ^_^
