Banahaw In Retrospect Part 1
Conceived at 10:45 PM
I went to Banahaw last week, saw it, climbed it, slept in it.
But it did change me though.
I can't fathom what has transpired in those two days. I came out of that mountain more alive than ever. More confident, happier, and faithful.
But faith if I would define it is not on the belief on some spiritual entity, or someone who flew to heaven with a chariot to god but it's something more simple.
Faith for me is simple the belief in something that isn't there yet. Again I emphasize the word yet. So how do I explain this? Let me give you first an example; There's a ground of land somewhere with nothing in it. I say that there is a building there. But you don't see anything, not even a pillar to support that strucuture. But I say to you there is a building there.
Wait for one year and you would see it. You come back after one year only to see a building standing on the same ground. And I say to you again, there is a building there, you just didn't have the faith to see it.
Ok, you may not buy it but what I am saying is that faith for me is just simply to have hope and to make that hope material.
To dream of the impossible is good but to make it happen takes faith.
