Philippine Independence Day is one of the most significant celebrations in the country. It is annually observe to commemorate nation's freedom from restraints of various kinds.

Filipinos of every walk of life gather together in their own respective places as it simultaneously done nationwide. They share their time and sense of respect for all people responsible for such glorious achievement that until these times being treasured by every Filipino, "Sovereignty".

If we try to define the word it basically says that freedom is being able to do what you want to do i.e. freedom of choices, freedom of speech, it makes a person capable of having more options in life and enables one to do more of what he wants to do.

But the question is... What Freedom or Independence really is??? And how do Filipinos of today demonstrate and use the term Independence anyway???

I think Independence was fully realized nowadays and celebrating this special day is worthy and remarkable but I think  it should not entirely focus on the celebration alone, instead it should also serve as a motivation for all Filipinos to look closer at their lives, refocus goals and reprioritize every aspect of humanity. 

Hope the nation will be united, where government and the people unceasingly help each other to be better.

To all Filipinos... Mabuhay!!!

I was actually browsing on the internet for pictures that would fit the subject I need to discuss. And lo and behold, there they are...

"Stonehenge"

They are so fascinating. They seemed to have been there for eternity. Quiet. Calm. They truly are iconic and had served their purpose. Can you not appreciate them? lol...

These structures really are inspiring. They didn't exactly move at all but they had move people to believe in their purposes of existence. Isn't that ironic???

Eureka!!! That's it. I had just unearth another huge idea for my stuff!!!

Perpetual optimism. Perpetual optimism is a force multiplier. It means continually believing in something will make something more likely to happen.

Quotes of the moment:

Be still like a stone.

It ain't as bad as you think. It will look better in the morning.

Happy Fourth Month!!! "Make A Difference"

Welcome to the Family

A new member of the family was given a warm welcome two weeks ago. Her name is Jasmine, a very gorgeous Shih Tzu who always seems to attract everybody's attention - whenever she puts on her tricks; pretending she's asleep and looks too exhausted. lol...

Dogs of her breed originated from China. With their cute and furry appearance, they could easily be distinguished from other kinds of dogs. Shih Tzu has a life span of about 10 to 15 years. Their height  is about 9 to 10 inches tall. They are small, playful and most of the times mischievous, yet, they look so lovable and innocent. Shih Tzu are friendly and sociable even to stangers. They are susceptible to extreme temperatures and they does not do well in extreme heat and for that, dogs of their kind is not suitable as an outdoor dog. Shih Tzu is a high maintenance breed and requires frequent and regular grooming. They were breed to pet and needs human companionship.

She is the apple of the eye and the center of everyone's attention. Weird isn't it? Oftentimes, a dog brags and shows off stuff just to get noticed. But Jasmine easily gets everybody's eye just by playing innocent and charming lol...

The Heat is On...

"Every start will definitely come to an end. Every ending is an opportunity to a new beginning"

The lights are all on, stats are swinging in every game and everybody was totally freakin' out as the 2011 NBA Championship Games had begun with Miami Heat and Dallas Mavericks battling their prowess to win the ring.

I am an avid fan of basketball. It's one of the favorite sports in Philippines and was so proud knowing that one of the teams playing for the title this year was headed by Mr. Erik Spoelstra, a Filipino American head coach who led the Miami Heat to 90 wins and two playoffs appearance within his two years as coach.

The most unanticipated events of the year and the most hyped championship series ever in the said sports. According to some analysts, looks are totally different now and compare to previous NBA Finals we've seen before, both teams are truly outstanding and were full of outraging emotions in reaching their goals. Spectacular plays of team works from the "Big Three" of the crowd's favorite Miami team and the Hot Hands of Mr. Dirk made the difference in this series of championship games. They always put on a great show and the whole world certainly watches every shot, every move and every play they do. You'd definitely hear them from different people who like basketball which I think it's  a good drive for people to engage in sports.

Even spectators are feeling the pressure as they put on their bets and support their teams. Various speculations could be heard on how this series will end and who will be victorious. Both teams had been pushing themselves to their limits and whoever wins truly deserves it.



Still Fightin' It

Every moment we create new karma by the way we say, do, and think...

If we do good things, in the future good things will happen to us. If we do bad things, in the future bad things will happen to us.

It was one those typical days when I got a ring from somebody. She was a Thai woman who asked me if I could do her a favor of teaching her daughters about basic English conversation. First, I eagerly asked her about where she got my number. She said she got it from her friend who I think knew me before. We talked on the phone for a couple of minutes but she was speaking so fast I could barely understand almost everything she said. I was amazed hearing her speak a bit of English and that obviously added up ease on our conversation. She then mentioned that she's really interested about it.

And finally, it was Thursday afternoon when I met her with her two lovely daughters. She was a good looking woman who happened to be so sweet with them. The conversation of course was focused on the usual issues and plans regarding the tutorial and I did explain every bit of information about it. Everything was then set and finished.

I was about to leave that time when a heavy downpour begun, so I have no choice but to stay. We exchanged some basic information about everything under the sun and never did notice that we were asking questions way outside our pay grades. Later on, I found out that ten years ago, she separated from her husband. We dug some old ruins. I began to closely pay attention to what she was talking about. She had a humble and patient heart. She understood life and I think she's nearly coping up with her situation. 

One thing, I really like about the "talk" was her sheer determination and courage. She then exclaimed that, "This is Life". Sometimes it's unfair and we need to accept it. The best part of the conversation shoveled up the moment she said that and she did hope that one day she could make her daughters proud of her...

It's been three months now and hope that I won't grow tired of doing my stuff here.To be honest, sometimes I feel exhausted but whenever i come across and look at it, it reminds me of inspiring scenarios how it started and who helped me out.

I just wish that those people who once motivated me will continue doing so and hope that they will keep sharing their insights. Moreover, i would also like to take this blessed opportunity to extend my heartfelt gratitude to those who'd been with me these times and those who continually encouraged me to be the best me... Thanks a lot... :) 

 

 Happy Three Months " Make A Difference"!!!

Blinding Realization

It's about time to turn another page!!!
 
I've been messing up things on Earth for about 28 years now...lol...

As the old saying goes... if your plan doesn't work out properly, do not change it. Instead, tweak your ways and stick with it. The pure truth is that, I'm really glad for the chance that I could look back in times and move further in everything.

This is actually my first time being away from the usual way of life and it's totally different now. Everything changes in this world, and no one could escape from that fact, I suppose.

Thoughts like, what's next? What could probably happen in the years to come? Really did come up my mind but I think it's normal that way.

I'm just grateful for all the people that cross my pages; it wouldn't be nicer if not for them. Life has an innumerable ways in teaching, whether an experience is good or bad, at the end it brings us closer to a blinding clarity that the heart of life is always good.

No wishes or any sort, but a sound and peaceful life will do...

                      

If you just walked away

What could i really say?

Would it matter anyway?

Would it changed how you feel?

I am the mess you choose

The closet you cannot close

The devil in you i suppose

'Cause the wounds never heal

But everything's changes

If I could

Turn back the years 

If you could

Learn to forgive me 

Then I could learn to feel

Sometimes the things I say

In moments of disarray

Succumbing to the games we play

To make sure that it's real

But everything's changes

If I could

Turn back the years 

If you could

Learn to forgive me 

Then I could learn to feel

When it's just me and you

Who knows what we could do

If we can just make it through

The toughest part of the day

But everything's changes

If I could

Turn back the years 

If you could

Learn to forgive me 

Then I could learn how to feel

Then we could stay here together

And we could conquer the world

If we could say that forever

Is more than just a word
