			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In  a few days time, a new sound will be born. And it will fill the corners of our home.</p>
<p>A new life will be introduced to the  world.  A baby girl will breathe her share of air, take her space  in the world and  give a new reason  to the life of my neighbor next door.</p>
<p>She will be welcomed but not everyone will be  there. A big part of who she is will not  grace her coming in.</p>
<p>I wish  this baby girl many blessings. <em>May you always find strength and be held in peace. May you walk with your head up high. May you you change history. Be the end.</em></p>
<p>Broken relationships seemed to surround me. I see them everywhere. I hear them. I know their stories. And it&#8217;s sad because things might have been perfect. In fact, better. Shame on my part because I stayed on the sidelines. I abandoned my duty. I was afraid to intervene. From where I came from, it&#8217;s not perfect either.</p>
<p>Wish things will be better somehow.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are times that I want to stay away.</p>
<p>I want to walk out from it all. I feel I don’t fit quite right in the puzzle sometimes. I’m a misnomer. An irony. A foreigner. A fish in dry land.</p>
<p>I see a future that might be painful for me if I don’t live by my truth.</p>
<p>Authentic life, authentic relationships – yes, these are what I am after.</p>
<p>Easier said. Difficult. Complicated.</p>
<p>I desire to be naked before them but just what will I get in return?</p>
<p>Though it has not happened, I am sure not everyone will be pleased.</p>
<p>And it’s sad.</p>
<p>When all I wanted really is freedom.</p>

<p><img src="http://www.shaydelgado.com/images/hinv.jpg" alt="11th Hope Anniversary" /></p>
<p>My dream of becoming a print model has materialized in some way thanks to my work.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.shaydelgado.com/images/hvibe.jpg" alt="11th Hope Anniversary" /></p>
<p>Praise God the auditorium was packed otherwise, my face is in trouble.</p>
<p>Oh I went to sing by the way. Here’s some members of the choir group.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.shaydelgado.com/images/hanniv02.jpg" alt="11th Hope Anniversary" /></p>
<p>The anniversary was a musical variety with participation from all walks of life from the  aunties &amp; uncles:</p>
<p><img src="http://www.shaydelgado.com/images/hanniv03.jpg" alt="11th Hope Anniversary" /></p>
<p>To the kiddies:</p>
<p><img src="http://www.shaydelgado.com/images/hanniv04.jpg" alt="11th Hope Anniversary" /></p>
<p>Our unit has a lot to do with the singing &amp; dancing.</p>
<p>We have Jenny, Mario, Lee, Efren &amp; Eli-koy rocking the house with their grooves:</p>

<img src="http://www.shaydelgado.com/images/hanniv07.jpg" alt="11th Hope Anniversary" /></p>
<p>The message was made plain &amp; simple by Pastor Simon but it sure packs a punch as people came in droves during altar call.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.shaydelgado.com/images/hanniv08.jpg" alt="11th Hope Anniversary" /></p>
<p>Here’s the very beautiful people of God from South West unit:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I remember that afternoon in my lettered red tee. I was rushing to the bus stop and in between breaths I was proclaiming  “Lord, I want to sing for your glory”.  In my heart was this longing  to just sing praises to God. I really thought I captured the spirit of David when he wrote Psalm 108:1 :</p>
<p><em>My heart is steadfast, O God;<br />
I will sing and make music with all my soul.</em></p>
<p>That was how I feel – upbeat, ecstatic &amp; just in total surrender.</p>
<p>That was months back. At this hour, truth is that my heart is not that close to being steadfast.</p>
<p>I’m sick. Sick spiritually. This old habit is creeping in again. It’s getting too frequent and it’s not really healthy. In all angles, I am completely at fault. I am in my normal state of mind knowing what is right &amp; wrong but yet still in deliberate fashion, choose to commit what is not pleasing.</p>
<p>And tomorrow in fact is our church  anniversary and I just came from a rehearsal in fact. I am  a member of the choir. I am supposed to minister. My cup should be full and must overflow.</p>
<p>But it’s not. It’s dry. Has my cup been broken?</p>
<p>The weight of sin is really becomes heavier once you minister – once your knowledge of God gains depth.</p>
<p>Why do I have to feel this way now?</p>
<p>The attack of the enemy is great &amp; mounting.</p>
<p>But I will still sing.</p>
<p><strong>“Makanta pa guiraray”</strong><br />
Will still sing</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My week has passed with zero deals. It&#8217;s really sad. My friend Lee who has the same profession as mine is meeting success at work and less than 2 weeks in the job but already reached her target. Amazing.</p>
<p>We actually sell different products and it&#8217;s totally useless to compare.</p>
<p>I am running out of time. Steam - I still have fortunately. I have only like 2 weeks. I must sell.  Otherwise, I will bring back a very very small fortune for a month&#8217;s pay.</p>
<p>I must really worked hard all the more at looking for quality leads. And this means an extra discipline on how I manage &amp; spend my time. And I just got to have love for research.</p>
<p>But I just don&#8217;t like bringing home work <img src='http://www.shaydelgado.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is what I want to hit for this month. I want to be senior now not like ten years later. So far I got my second already from a big life company from India. I have a little more than 2 weeks to reach my target. I am in so need divine intervention. Oh heaven, pour your miracles like rain on me. At this moment, potentially, I have one from Vietnam, UK &amp; India. I hope they become D – E – A – L – S!</p>
<p>I want to say ‘WEI’ to everyone reading. It’s been a while really since I last wrote. This is almost a graveyard now.</p>
<p>Well, I spoke to my little bro Boobie &amp; he still prefers that I go back to design. I told him I am giving myself a month. If I don’t clinch many deals, then I might as well pack my bags and go. But there is really money here. It’s just a matter of calling people who are perfect fit to the event’s agenda. I loved the office hours. I’m getting comfortable speaking to ang-mohs too. Being able to go home while sun’s up is the best part of the job. Also, it’s a 5-day job meaning I could use my Saturdays to do freelance design or just spent the whole morning dozing off. I just don’t like the research part. It demands time that I could have spent doing more important things like ministry. Also, being transferred countless times is very annoying. A person on the  other  line who stays mum because of not being able to speak English is just frustrating.</p>
<p>Almost 1AM now. Tomorrow’s another grind.</p>

<p>June 7 was a special day marked on my calendar as it is  Manoy’s birthday, his first in fact outside the Philippine homebase.  Thanks to the initiative Ate Beth &amp; Ate Lily for the big BIG help in turning the party into a success.<br />

<p>We planned it as a surprise in fact but celebrant came in early so never mind<em> lah</em>….he  can help in the cooking <em>mah!</em></p>
<p>Here goes his first SG birthday bash:<br />

<p>I want to thank all the people who came. Your presence &amp; your hearty messages really make the occasion a lot more memorable. Also, kudos to Kuya Daniel for finally turning up!<br />

I am just happy that the party is  not my own making but a concerted effort of good people including housemates Ate Trudy &amp; Ate Liezel.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I scored my FIRST deal today! Yahoo!!!! And who would have thought it will come from my home country Philippines!</p>
<p>Ringing that bell felt so good! I wish I had my picture taken for my virgin strike!</p>
<p>This one means alot really. I requested this to be prayed over last Tuesday in our meeting with caregroup mates. I am just glad that when we pray together God&#8217;s ears are upon us. He always does. Our CG seemed to have intercessory favor from heaven.</p>
<p>Now I can breathe easier. I feel better and I  feel less pressure too knowing now that I CAN do it. My God CAN do it!</p>
<p>Shay has arrived sweetheart!</p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Nag-abot na ako&#8221;</strong><br />
I have arrived</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I phoned Boobie,  my youngest bro, earlier tonight while at Burger King at Holland Village waiting to begin my shepherding with Ate Tere. Haven&#8217;t spoken to him in while. In a voice, I so missed dearly, he queried in  his usual hurried tone about my new job. He asked how I was doing before I even have the chance of asking the same thing. He sounded so concerned  - so sweet of you <em>bunso</em>. My answer didn&#8217;t come quickly. Frankly, I am still not able close any deal. Potential deals has just really been &#8216;potential&#8217; and nothing more. If the fact that I have surpassed the 100 a day callrate to speak anything, well, closing a deal even at least one still speak louder in many ways.</p>
<p>I like that Boobie is opinionated. He prefers I switch back. He is not apparently in complete agreement of my decision to change. When I asked him why, he said &#8216;he just felt that I belong &amp; should be doing design&#8217;.</p>
<p>This reminds me last Saturday when I visited my old place to finish up some projects. I still render my service every Saturday except the last weekend till my replacement comes. When I sat in my &#8216;old&#8217; chair, I felt different. I actually missed my iMAC, my wacom tablet and it made me smile. The Law prospectus that I have been working on for the longest time has surprisingly been printed already and it looks good.</p>
<p>Should I come back or not?</p>
<p>I feel like a prodigal designer.</p>
<p>Sales &amp; design job are different &amp; it&#8217;s hard to compare. But I realized that a design job is a job that requires someone to give &amp; produce something tangible. And that perhaps is what is missing in my new job.</p>
<p>I will wait for what my Father says on this.</p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Arin?&#8221;</strong><br />
Which one?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I just want to thank those who are still faithful at coming to my humble place in the web despite my lack of updates.</p>
<p>Unlike my previous job, this new job of mine doesn&#8217;t provide me an opportunity to blog at all. Every second counts. Making a hundred calls on a daily basis is no mean feat plus take into consideration the loads of time lead research demands.  Probably, it&#8217;s all because I am a newbie - pretty much learning the ropes till now. It just hurts my head sometimes. Digesting terms like takaful, rbc frameworks, brokers, actuary, enterprise risk management, etc splits my head apart. Oh well, it&#8217;s always good to learn something new. Hope  to clinch a deal soon!<br />
