Lyndon Speaks is back!
Just like our much loved US TV shows, which all returned this Fall with their new seasons, we all have our own Season Premieres in our lives. These premieres mark the start of a fresh and thrilling journey in this thing we call life. I recently had my own season premiere last July as I entered a new chapter in my career. But before I share it, why not recall the bitter-sweet finale of the previous one - just the way how our favorite series do it :).
The end of the previous chapter of my life started with a lot of thinking and realization. Is it worth the risk? Will I grow? Will I make it? Will I be able to leave everything behind? These are only a few from the hand-full of questions I had. But as always, with the help of the Lord, my encouraging family, and those I can call my true friends, making one of the hardest decisions of my life became like a breeze. I may have been hurt with what had transpired, I may have thought less of myself back then, but I realized that that was never my loss, it will never be my loss. After looking back at what I have accomplished back then, I realized that I shouldn't think less of myself because through the achievements I had, the praises I received, I have proved to everybody - to all of them - that I am better than them compounded into one! And if my "being better than them" cost me the end of a chapter of my life, I think that it is worth it.
But just like what my mom said, we should never burn bridges so that we can have a way to go back. It is not just the bitter memories and those who have caused hurt that I can go back to, there are a lot of sweet ones to cherish and bring along with me on to the next season of my life. There are friends - true friends - who have proved that they will never abandon me. The memories I had with them are surely worth coming back for. The bond that I made with each of them is worth keeping. The voyage that I shared with them is a story worth telling to my future grand kids. And the final days spent with them is the best way to close this chapter of my life.
As the new season of my life premiered, old faces came back as if the previous chapter had not ended. Of course, new places, new faces, and a new journey are ahead of me. An exhilarating feeling pretty much covered the season premiere. No one knows how long this season will go, but I am sure that I will make the most of every single day that this has. I will continue where I left off - a journey towards making a difference in other people's lives.

Lyndon Speaks is also premiering its new season. Let me present to you the third version of my site! This new version fades away from the old HTML-based site and is now gearing for an XML-based one. I'm still studying on how to build a site using this new design but I will make sure that I will still be able to add a few of my own to the templates that I'll be using. The new site features a full archive of posts (Lyndon's Peeks), my pick from the latest in movies, music, TV, and everything in between, and links on how to connect with me.
Thanks to my loyal blog-readers. I know you are all there to celebrate this new milestone of Lyndon Speaks. I know that you all know who you are. So thanks guys!
