Untiltled

Hope that my wife will be happy with me. I know that I have made several life choices which I werent feel proud of...the best choice I did was to marry and be with her.

Day 10

Closely going there. A lot things are happening, too much stress over health and over work. Sometimes I would like to feel that I own myself but really I cannot. And forever I will not.

Counting Days - Day 1

Usually I count days either for my parents, or for my siblings...I guess its my time. I was diagnosed with Acute Gloemrulonephritis back in 2000. Now its worsening close to kidney failure. Our genes really suck up - big time. But I cant blame anyone not even God on this, lest worry on what may happen in next coming months. Im trying to be positive together with my other half. Im more than happy to be with her especially in these moments when you needed her the most. Im wishing that all will be good as soon as plans work out. For now, prayers and more prayers will be enough to fortify my increasing will.

New Address

Im now in another dimension. Scared but crazy excited. Ty[pical of a guy that moves in in another territory. First day was a blast. Hassle free stay in. 2 minute away worksite and tons and tons of girls. But always cautious, I gotta first be meek and observe to check out what really is in store for this short of a stint. It takes time to build a relationship with new people whom you will be with with this new life step. But Ill be there. Will take it one step at a time....

Father's Day

Kakatawag ko lang sa tatay ko. Dialysis na naman bukas. Heart attack siya last week. As usual umutang na naman ako sa SRESLA. Di ko na nga iniisip ang gastos basta ok lang sya....sila...pati mga kapatid ko. Ang papel ko yata sa mundo e ganito na lang. Pero di naman ako nagrereklamo kaya lang kung magkaminsan ang daling isipin na pagud ka na...pagud na sa pagpunta sa ospital...pagud sa pakikipag usap sa mga ahente ng M Lhuilier...nakakapagod. Kailan kaya ulit ito matatapos? Hindi naman gagaling ang tatay ko. Bahala na...ganun naman ang buhay ko...walang plano...walang direksyon.

Best Digital Cameras sa Bakasyown!!!
Fuji FinePix Z33WP, $199(Waterproof: 10 feet) The Fuji FinePix Z33WP is a great, family-friendly camera that's perfect for a relaxing day at the beach. The 10-megapixel sensor and 3x optical zoom are fairly average, but the unusual colors, funky design and waterproof body help it stand out from the crowd. The Z33WP is available in black, gold, pink, blue and green. Pentax Optio W60, $299(Waterproof: 13 feet) Slim and sedate, the Pentax Option W60 is an unassuming waterproof digital camera that's good to depths as low as 13 feet. This 10-megapixel digital camera does have one trick up its sleeve: a high-definition-video mode capable of shooting clips in 1080p. That's a very nice option for such an affordable digital camera. Olympus TOUGH 6000, $299(Waterproof: 10 feet, Shockproof: 5 feet) The baby brother of the TOUGH 8000, the 6000 model is a little more affordable and a little more modest in its capabilities. The 6000 model is a slim, ultra compact camera that's waterproof to 10 feet in depth and can be dropped from 5 feet without damage.
Canon Powershot D10, $329(Waterproof: 33 feet, Shockproof: 4 feet) Like the Z33WP, the Canon Powershot D10 packs a lot of personality, but surpasses the Fuji with even greater durability. The D10 can withstand drops of up to four feet without sustaining significant damage and can be taken underwater to depths as low as 33 feet. The D10's simple design makes it a snap to use for kids and adults alike, and the strap-locks, featured on all four corners of the camera, help you keep a hold it in challenging conditions.
Panasonic Lumix TS1, $399(Waterproof: 10 feet, Shockproof: 5 feet) The Panasonic Lumix TS1 is perhaps the most visually appealing waterproof camera, with a brushed steel body that looks like it could withstand the most arduous treks. The TS1 is waterproof to 10 feet and shockproof from five, but that's not all this camera can do. The AVCHD Lite video mode is capable of shooting vivid, detailed high-definition videos of your underwater escapades.
Olympus TOUGH 8000, $399(Waterproof: 33 feet, Shockproof: 6.6 feet, Crushproof: 220 pounds) The TOUGH 8000 is the burliest camera on the list: It's not only waterproof and shockproof, but also crushproof to 220 pounds of pressure. You really have to go out of your way to destroy the Olympus 8000. Early reviews from owners hint that the camera's durability is better than its image quality, but if you're venturing into harsh landscapes, security might outweigh aesthetics. Pentax K200D, Price: $599 Body, $699 Kit Lens(Weather Resistant) If you're looking to take a more powerful camera on your vacation but still worry about facing the elements, the Pentax K200D digital SLR could be the answer. This professional-level dSLR has a solid, weather-resistant body, which means it can put up a good fight against dust and rain and make you feel more comfortable about wading into extreme situations for that perfect photograph.

THE SPECK IN OUR BROTHER’S EYE

MESSAGE: Pride leads us to exaggerate our neighbour’s faults and to underestimate and excuse our own. On one occasion Our Lord said to those who were listening to Him, Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye, ‘when there is the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye (Matt 7:3.5). Avoiding negative, and often unjust, judgements on others is a sign of humility. The slightest faults of others are exaggerated by our personal pride, whereas our own perhaps much greater defects are minimised and explained away. Moreover, pride tends to see in others what are really our own imperfections and errors. Hence Saint Augustine gives this wise piece of advice: Strive to acquire the virtues you think your brothers lack, and then you will no longer see their defects, because you yourselves will not have them (St Augustine, Commentary on Psalm 30, 2, 7). Humility on the other hand has a positive influence through a series of virtues which favour a good human and Christian atmosphere in social life. Only the humble man is in a position to forgive, to understand, and help, because he alone realises that he has received everything from God. He is aware of his own wretchedness and how much he himself is in need of the divine mercy. So even when he has to judge, he is understanding towards his neighbour. He finds excuses and forgives whenever necessary. Besides, we have a very limited view of what motivates the actions of others. God alone can penetrate into the most intimate interior of hearts, read minds and grasp the real effect and value of all the circumstances that influence and accompany any action. We must learn to pass over even the obvious and undeniable defects of the people we are with each day, so that we do not keep our distance from them or lose our respect for them because of their mistakes or bad manners. Let us learn from Our Lord, who could not entirely excuse the sin of those who crucified him, but extenuated its malice by pleading their ignorance. When we cannot excuse a sin, let us at least make it worthy of compassion by attributing the most favourable cause we can to it, such as ignorance or weakness (St Francis de Sales, Introduction to the Devout Life, III, 28). If we make the effort to discover our neighbour’s good points, we shall see that the deficiencies in his character, the defects in his behaviour, are as nothing in comparison with his virtues. This positive, just attitude towards those with whom we are constantly in contact will bring us closer to God. We shall grow in interior mortification, charity and humility. Let us strive always to look at the virtues and good deeds we see in others, Saint Teresa tells us, and cover their defects with the thought of our own great sins. This is a manner of acting that, although we cannot do so with perfection right away, gradually gains for us a great virtue - that of considering all other men as being better than ourselves. In such a way, with the help of God, one begins to acquire this virtue (St Teresa, Life, 13, 10). My Prayer God help me to be humble again. Help me regain my understanding of what life is and how people should be treated with respect. Lord you still are my shepherd.

bangui

NOTE: Bangui is a term used for people who are ultra-conceited. Bangui actually is where the first windmills in the country are, which generates enough power from the WIND intended for the town.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Frustrated akong neuro-surgeon kaya pagbibigyan ko na ang sarili ko sa joke na to.

Three surgeons were discussing which one was the most skilled.

The first surgeon, by the name of tutut, said that a man had fallen across the railroad tracks, and a train had severed both legs just above the knees. After my surgery and physical therapy, that man won this year's Boston Marathon. Bangui number 1 anlakas ng hangin, 160 kph!!!!!

The second surgeon, si tutut # 2, said that was nothing. A woman had been thrown head first through the windshield of a car and her face was sliced to ribbons. After my surgery she won the Miss America contest. Bangui number 2...parang 300kph na bagyo hanef sa yabo!

The third surgeon, syempre si utoy, said that was nothing. A man had been sucked into the air intake of a jet engine. The only thing that was recovered was a tiny piece of brain matter no larger than a pea. From that piece, I, the surgeon reconstructed the entire man, and now he is president of the United States.

Ah Cheng Buey Ro Ti

Once upon a time, a group of Ah Bengs stepped into a lounge and wanted the DJ to play the song "Ah Cheng Buey Ro Ti" (In Hokkien meaning Ah Cheng buys bread)

The DJ told them that they only have English songs and told them to re-select another song. The Ah Bengs were indignant and kicked up a big fuss, claiming that the DJ was insulting them. The manager had to intervene in order to calm them down. Finally, after many hours of talking, the manager managed to find out that the Ah Bengs were actually asking for the song "Unchained Melody" by the Righteous Brothers.

real tragedy

The real tragedy for a Christian starts when he can no longer see Jesus in his life; when because of lukewarmness or sin or pride, the horizon becomes clouded over; when things are done as if Jesus were not by his side, as if the Lord had never risen from the dead.

timo

may mga taong kahit anong gawin mo ay mayrong makikitang mali sayo. bakit ka ganito, bakit ka ganyan...mahirap maubos maisip kumbakit may mga taong sadyang ipinanganak ng ganito. dala na din siguro ng kanilang mga aninong aayaw mapansin ng iba o di kaya'y mapag usapan ng karamihan.

napagtanto ko...hindi kaya ito ang mga dahilan ng kanilang mga pagpupula (pula i.e. puna, "meddle", pakialam)

1. "pula ka ng pula e ni pulak wala ka" - matagal ng sumasagi sa isip ko ang bagay na to. bagamat ipinanganak akong salat, hindi ako tinuruang mamuna ng kapwa. ngunit saking pagtanda lalo na ng mapasok ako dito, naiba ang persepsyon ko sa buhay.

maraming taong nais na ikaw ay malaglag, mapahamak, MAPAGTAWANAN, MAPUNA NG MARAMI SA IYONG KAHINAAN, MAPAG -USAPAN, at higit sa lahat MAGING TAMPULAN NG TUKSO.

habang naglalaro sa utak ko ang mga bagay bagay na pilit kong iwinawaksi, nahulog ako sa patibong ng kanilang mundo.

nanghamak, nagtawa, nangmata...nakihalubilo sa mga usapang kakatwa at may baluktot na pagtingin sa kapwa. Ito marahil ang kanilang dahilan upang hindi sa kanila maibaling ang PAGPULA...upang sila ang mag BIDA...maging SUPERYOR...maging AMO.

hanggang sa magising akong muli sa daang minsan ko nang tinahak.

ngayon, katulad ng matagal ko ng pagharap sa buhay - tatlo ang maari kong gawin - maging tapat at ipamukha sa mamumula na kung maaring tingnan ang kanyang sarili sa bago mamula, manibugho, makipagtunggali at sabihin ang nais sabihin, o manahimik na lamang at ibahagi sa KANYA ang sitwasyon. marahil sa KANYA ko na rin lamang ipapabahala ang aking desisyon.

2. "hindi tumitingin sa salamin" - pwede naman tayong manalamin araw araw kaya nga lang merong mga taong mas gustong punahin ang iba kaysa sa sarili. tsk tsk tsk...siguro ayaw niyang mapahiya ang sarili niya sa kanyan sarili. nakakaawa at nakakatawang isipin na ikaw mismo ang pupula sa iyong sarili. sa isang banda, mas magaling na rin ang punahin ang sarli kaysa ang iyong kapwa.

3. "mahangin lamang talaga" - hindi na ito dapat pang ipaliwanag.

wise is the person

who knows what to say

and when to say it.......

there are some silent people

whose praises should be sung;

they preach a mighty sermon

by guarding well their tongue......

not what we have,

but what we use,

not what we see,

but what we choose -

these are the things

that mar or bless

the sum of human happiness....
