A YBP LOVE POST

FOLLOW THE SUN ❤️

YBP

Ahhh I’ve always loved the sun! ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️

Having lived in a tropical country since birth has always felt like Heaven smiling upon me. How I love, love, love the awesome Philippine sun!

As a little girl, I loved going to the beach, taking a dip in the pool, biking, going on a picnic adventure, and enjoying the overall happy outdoorsy vibe. 

I continued my invigorating romance with the sun as I grew up with family and friends. That translated into even more “fun in the sun!”

When I married an awesome adventure-lover, I got to appreciate the sun still even more! We had our lovely share of romantic getaways involving the sun. From sunset viewing (with cocktails to match the relaxed mode) to creating sandcastles  and collecting seashells by the beach (and watching the waves wash them away aww). From kayaking (and nearly getting trapped in a mini lagoon yikes!) to jet-skiing (and actually falling off the jet ski, yikes never again!!! Haha!). From entering both small and enormous caves (and wanting to get out alive immediately) to ziplining (Oh, this I super loved! Flying in freedom!!!) ….. ohhh all these amazing adventures under the sun!

I was always attracted to bright and well-lit places. I found the light so magnetically appealing. And so, trips to other beautiful countries intensified my passion for the sun all the more!

A bright sunny day automatically puts me in a great mood. I naturally feel so happy, so positive, so energetic, so enthusiastic, so in tiptop shape, so in my element! It’s no surprise that I happily identify with the sun and all its happy vibrant colors haha!

FOLLOW THE SUN. FOLLOW THE LIGHT. That’s always been part of my happy mantra. And I embrace that not only literally, but even more so, figuratively.

I love places with beaming light. I love people who radiate light and positivity too! These are the very people I surround myself with. It’s a natural attraction I should say. Light loves light. From every angle of scientific, logical, and practical consideration. And all the more deeply, from the vantage point of the soul.

During my earlier days of childhood (and even unto my “not-too-young” adulthood haha!), there were days when I would sorely miss the sun. I used to feel quite melancholic and reflective when I wouldn’t see the sun on a rainy cloudy day. Aww, Sun, my Beloved Sun, where are you?

However, as the passing years and seasons have taught me powerfully, the sun may not always shine visibly. And yet, that doesn’t mean that it has left altogether. It remains there in all its splendor and glory. It just has to set. It needs to catch some sleep. It shares its radiance with the rest of the world too.

And so, I’ve learned to celebrate the sun and respect it, not only in all its grandeur, but also in all its phases.

On an even more powerful level, now I’ve learned to go beyond enjoying and following the sun.

I’ve learned to look up above in a much grander way with deepest love for and reverence to Our Creator. I have learned to press into Him in worship and FOLLOW THE SON. Yes, His One and Only Begotten Son. Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior.

And all my days are so much brighter now! (Yup, even when there’s practically no sun in sight!) For Jesus Christ is more than my Sun. He is more than my Light. He is more than my Hope. He is more than my Love. HE IS MY EVERYTHING!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hello there! I’m Yeka and I love LOVE. My heart goes pitter patter at the sound of my hubby’s loving voice. I'm undeniably a hopeful romantic haha! My smile shines from east to west when I bond with my family. My passion for lifelong learning further ignites when I train and serve my students. My eyes sparkle with gratitude when I recount the billion blessings I enjoy. My soul embraces the horizon when I share the countless miracles I witness. In my journey, I stay in awe of the simple yet profound truth. IT’S ALL ABOUT LOVE. ❤️

  6. ‘Sun’ is ‘Nature of God’
    ‘Light’ my FRiEnD that
    Brightens up
    The DarK
    As Alpha thru
    Omega Means ALL
    As God Is DarK too
    With No separation WHoLE as
    ALL Naturally IS and interestingly
    the Original Definition of ‘Son’ means
    ‘Nature of’ as True at best Sons are Sons
    of Sunshine Light too Within (Love) that Brightens up
    the DarK as Night Becomes Sunrise as Human Morning too..
    AcTually this is what the Original Greek Definition means Then
    Lost now as Greek SpeaKinG Romans Wrote the New Testament
    Sadly Nature of God is transformed then into an orphan lon-el-y and
    That Meaning God Lost as Alpha thru Omega All is God With No name
    as truly the original
    Translation of the
    ‘the Commandment’
    ‘Do not take the Lord’s
    Name in Vain’ means ‘God’
    is too big and too mysterious
    for any Human assigned name other than i AM
    God Exists and We Humans Like ‘Fleas’ on the Back
    of A Dog not unlike ‘Snoopy’ still do our best to understand
    the ‘Nature of’ (Son) of how we receive our Life’s Blood Still for me
    At Least i Copy Jesus Now and Make IT ALL about Love Now for this
    Works best
    for me
    i Believe
    Jesus’s idea
    About MaKinG
    Everything About Love is So True iN LiGHT
    in Constant Thanks And Praise and Worship
    of Alpha thru Omega with NO Name God as
    All That IS and ever will be Now beyond all Human
    Grasp fully As DarK of God Still Exists too again as
    ‘God’ Is too Mysterious for We ‘Fleas’ Now to understand
    ‘Snoopy’ For all of what the Metaphor of ‘Dog’ Brings ‘here’…
    Smiles my FRiEnD When We Are Born Again and Manufacture
    Our Own Agape Love Within to Give and Share for ALL as What i Intuit Your
    Bright Smile And Eyes Do in FruiTioN it seems not any different than the Song i just
    Shared with You.. Yes.. as Your Words Continue to Bring to the Pages of Your Blog…
    In Sunshine Light
    oF Love True too..
    i Do Believe
    We Achieve
    A Message
    of Jesus Best
    for that Message
    is Sunshine of Love
    Within that (who) KNows And Feels/Senses no Darkness
    of Defeat anymore eternally NoW in Flow ‘I am’ (God/Love) in as ‘US’..:)

  21. Bonjour Mon Amie AMI

    Plusieurs personnes entrent dans nos vies
    Certaines pour y rester et d’autres ne font que passer
    Quoi qu’il en soit, elles resteront gravées dans nos mémoires
    Laissant une marque ou une cicatrice dans notre cœur ou une trace de leur passage

    Des portes se ferment, des cœurs se referment au fil des jours
    On ne sait jamais si c’est le hasard, le destin, la chance ou le malheur
    qui mettent ces personnes sur nos chemins
    On sait toujours ce qu’on perd, mais jamais ce qu’on gagne

    Mais le destin suit saroute
    Je te souhaite une excellente et une très bonne journée ou soirée
    Bisous.Bernard
