prayer mountain in Rizal (Gethsemane)



I never thought that there is a prayer mountain in Rizal. My mom and two of my neighbor ask us (with my bf) if we want to go to Gethsemane or they called it "prayer mountain", and because we are curious we go with them. In the side of our subdivision, they said there a way going to the mountain. We walk in a rocky road. And because Montalban is near in mountain expect it that there's a lot of trees and to my surprise we saw different kind of stone (just like a marmol). So, we get some stone and bring it our house. The road is not quite good but its better to have this than walk in tall grass. There's also houses in the side of the road, one of my neighbor is our tour guide, she say that a lot of people living in this area. And it's true. I feel that I've been in our province at that moment. You can hear the birds singing, the flow of the water falls, and of course you can smell fresh air. The road is steep, but its okay. It took an hour to reach the prayer mountain. When we get there, we saw a retreat house. If you want to think or you want a peace of mind this is the best place that I can recommend. Not far from the city. There a small church in a mountain. And you can see a painting of Jesus praying. This trip is very worthwhile. You'll never regret once you go there.

What is mistake?

What is mistake for you?
Mistake is an error or fault resulting from defective judgement, deficient knowledge or carelessness. From this definition we can see exactly the meaning of mistakes. But, mistake for me is an experience you go through that will lead you for learnings. When we are a child we always commit small mistakes, and because of that our parents scold us. When we get older, a small can be a big mistake, and this a time some people will judge you for what you've done. Everybody can make mistake. But in every mistake, we should learn how to hanlde it and how we deal with it. Don't be ashamed for what you have done. You have to face it and accept your failure. Mistake can make you strong and it will lead you to search GOD. Every time you commit mistake see what happened to yourself. Is there any changes?. Yes, because mistake can change a new you. You cannot see it in physical aspect but you can feel in your inner self. Mistake is one of most beautiful thing that comes to your life. So, don't be afraid to commit mistakes. But don't forget to stand up and be sorry to what you have done. Don't forget to ask forgiveness to God. You pray and humbly accept the consequences. Don't hate yourself because you done mistake. Always remember that nobody is perfect only GOD.
