How far have I gone?

I have been contemplating a lot at how much time I have wasted on not writing at all, and on the time I need to make up for it. Since making this blog back to its original intent — Possibly Maybe Unexpectedly — I realized that no matter how I sidetracked, God will eventually find me and lead me back to where He wanted me to start…. and it surprising how I am picking up the pieces…

Back where it all started

Part of this journey of returning to PMU is the fact I need to change what I have written in the About section of this blog. I have changed it to fit Trippin On Crutches which may seem the same but in fact is actually different. I even once called this blog Chasing Possibilities after its website was cancelled. In the three years since I stopped using PMU, I also tried to delete its Facebook page….but God doesn’t seem to allow it nor change its name.

…it must have been a sign or something — one which I ignored. For the longest time I tried to focus on posting as Trippin on Crutches and Chasing Possibilities only to realize I can’t hold on to two different blogs. I also have Panitika on the side, an arts and craft page which I have kept more since it was where I was showcasing my art and my dream business. With these three pages in mind, I realized I have been holding on to so many projects wherein I could just focus on one –where they all fit.

After the many  years of trying, ignoring, and sidetracking moves, I am back to where I started — as the author of PMU.

A trip down memory lane

Changing my About section earlier gave me a glimpse of my past endeavors. It seems I was already doing a lot since then but PMU was the only consistent thing happening. I visited my old PMU blogspot post and saw my old About section. There and there I found links to my old writing portfolio and earlier blogs. It was then I realized I haven’t really been far behind on what I visioned back then. These sites go back 2007, before my mom died. I also have a small blog “A Dose of Craftiness” in hopes it would be a start of my arts and craft venture — only to realize I now have forgotten it and now springs forth a new one — Panitika Art and Letters from the Heart (which I plan to share it here too in PMU).

Wow! it seems I have always carried the vision of what I would be doing now… and I can only be amazed how far the Lord led me here…

Keeping things simply and consistent

I have my reasons why Chasing Possibilities didn’t push through that much and why I can’t update as regularly as I would want Trippin on Crutches to be… right now, Panitika hasn’t shared much but it continues to highlight my art works which has gained me the attention I needed to be considered an artist…

…and while this blog is once again Possibly Maybe Unexpectedly, it doesn’t mean the these projects would be deleted. To keep things simple, why not place it all here in PMU.

why?

I am PMU

PMU is my baby. It is a project that I have seen to be the most consistent of all the blogs and writing projects I have made. It was where God has blessed me with so many opportunities from being noticed as a blogger, a writer, a traveler, and even a missionary. It’s all here… it carries my personality and my personal growth — it’s my legacy.

The projects I mentioned above where also all me but divided in such a way it would define a part of me…thus why not keep it in one blog which carries my personality all together!

Thus, without further ado, I ask for your prayers as I make this work again…

I ask for prayers for my thoughts and journey that I may share lessons that would speak of love and hope, for there are times anxiety and fear attacks me.
I ask for prayers for those who will find themselves in the pages of my blog and in need of healing, hoping my words resonate with them and be a channel of God’s comfort for them too…
I ask for prayers for my consistency and the hopes one day it would reach more people than I intend to reach, because to be honest part of why I restarted this blog was in hopes it might reach a specific person (he doesn’t know me) whom I have no idea if he is a Christian but has mobilized many to help the community selflessly — such heroes needs encouragement too, especially Christ!

…and as we are now faced with challenges that may lessen people to personally communicate and meet, may this blog be a channel of light and hope that may send warmth and love to those who feel the darkness…

PMU is my journey — this is not just a blog it’s a testimony!
