The Year 2011; What was that all about?

Just never thought that 2011 is ending, and after this year, again let's start the new year!!! Well, I just wanted to share something and you know, I can't help thinking how my life get in to different challenges, trials and problems, and of course, the joyful moments and happiness I did and experienced. My life on 2011? It's kinda mixed of motions, it was like a puzzle. Last time, that was summer (I think so), I found true loved, I found Him with such unexpected date, I knew of Him, and I started to follow Him. It's Jess Christ. Yes it's true, 2011 for me is such a very significant year of all, that in this year, I knew how to give love not just on Christmas season but every day. I knew of handling things, problems and different kinds situations that probably came over my life and to my family. However, starting from the time I knew of God, He really taught me a lot and a lot of things. And He also made me matured enough to get things out all over. I already kno

The Implications of Typhoon Sendong

Pasko na ba? Bigla ko namang naitanong yan sa sarili ko, sa kabila ng lahat ng nangyayari. One of the reasons why I'd say it's Christmas, it's the people, they seemed to be happy anywhere anytime, joyful Christmas Parties, joyful Christmas lights, lanterns, reunions, giving gifts and any other joyful things they do. And of course, the essence of Christmas, the climate changes into a very cold and fresh air, and that's no doubt, it's Christmas indeed!! How do i find it? It's something few days to go, before December 25th, but until now, I still find it so disappointing, so sad and it seem to me it's still not Christmas season. Why? Behind of those happenings around us, the tragedies and the lives who just lost because of the Typhoon in CDO and Iligan City and any other Cities and places over the Island of the Philippines. That Typhoon resulted a lot damages, houses were being wrecked, trashed and being broken. Many people's life were being caught dea

Simbang Gabi!

Wow, it's really Christmas. I can't wait! And again, December 16 will be the first day/night of the Filipino people will go to church every dawn or every night (the Simbang Gabi ). Of course, every dawn, we'll wake up at exactly 4:00am, it finds me such a very cold and tired, but Filipinos are really being their own tradition, in which this Simbang Gabi will be a 9 consecutive days, and on the 24th of December, we finally made the 9 days of church. Traditional, it's just that many Filipinos have their own beliefs that after you've made it or when they have completed those 9 days/nights to church. Their wishes will be granted. But that finds me a childish feelings. It may be an individuals trade, but of course, we are gonna be sensitive enough or be aware that we do it for Christ and not for our own wants. It's a healthy hobby of waking up early in the morning , and those people who lives in just near to the church, it's an advantage for you guys. You

 Probably, majority of you guys will say "yes, it counts!" I must agree, as a guy, we'll truly make sure our gals will get tickle..hehe, yet, it's just a matter of being presentable to our date, and having a beautiful lady in front of me in a solemn and silent environment with candles and flowers on path to our table. Wow, that sounds really exciting and romantic, though it'll be about 100$, but it's ok, let's talk about being romantic, there are many ways. Very important for me if I'm gonna have a date, I will let my parents know about it. They must know where we will be going and what time will I end up our date, although there will be no assurance of when we will end, but I try to promise to  them that we will be in our home by this hour. I understand those people out there who didn't yet introduce their dates to their parents, probably this will be your first time on a date. But I still let know them I have a date. And to be general, I

Christmas is Here, Bringing Good Cheer!!!

Christmas is finally here bringing good cheer to everyone! This is actually the most important occasion we that are celebrating. It's all about Jesus Christ's Day, which we all know, we must be the most happiest people in every way we learn to love others which Jesus' command. Thanks for this time, that even in just once in a year, I will remember the time I've learned how to love children, family, myself, others and God. And in that, the love is always staying in my mind, of how to be in love and give love. The Christmas always reminds me of how happy the life I had. God gave me good and real friends, family, brothers and sisters, and on the other hand, Jesus always give me rooms for mistakes for me to learn from it and grow. Jesus taught me the word "challenge" which I always considered it as my starting point of my long run in life. On Christmas, we always unite. And during Christmas, it's the time I will see all of my family members, my p
