26th Post: Minsan Lamang (Just Once)

                            MINSAN LAMANG


THE COMMUNION SONG: ANG AWIT 


"Minsan lamang akong daraan sa daigdig na ito  
Kaya anuman ang mabuting maaring gawin ko ngayon
O anumang kabutihan ang maari kong ipadama
Itulot ninyong magawa ko ngayon ang mga bagay na ito.
Nawa’y huwag ko itong ipagpaliban o ipagwalang bahala
Sapagkat di na ako muling daraan sa ganitong mga landas."

I am not aware if there's an English version of this Church's Communion Song, but, hope to give justice as I translate it for those who don't speak our  Filipino language.   


THE SONG: 


              I'll pass this life's road only once (Life on Earth) 
Whatever goodness that I could possibly do now
or whatever kindness that I could share
let me do it now. 
May I not ignore, delay or postpone it
for I will never pass this road again. 

This is indeed true. We will never pass this road again and so we have to be at our best to do whatever we can NOW, in whatever way, no matter how small or big our intentions are. 

Time flies so fast. The dates will never come back again. Many times have been wasted. Let us not regret those times-- ANYMORE.  

I have wasted so many times. Valuable times. Valuable moments. Valuable hours.   

It's not yet late. Today is the time-- to start anew.....

Yes, I will only pass this road once and I will take this moment to make it worthwhile. ---even just ONE good deed - will make me the person in me somehow worthy of a life. Probably this blog is that ONE for now - as I share a big chunk of me. 

If I could do more GOOD DEEDS - that would be a plus or better a LEGACY that will remain even if I'm gone.
