Ang Gulo ng Mundo

bakit ba ang gulo gulo ng mga tao?
di lang magkaintindihan
mamamaya lang ayan na ang patayan.
bakit di na lang i-respeto gusto ng ibang tao?

sabihin na natin na pag prisipyo pinaguusapan
dapat lang naman na ipaglaban.
pero hanggan saan? kahit buhay sa buhay ang labanan,
dapat bang tuloy tuloy pa rin ipaglaban?

panahon pa ni hesukristo mga tao laging nagtatalo.
hindi naman pwedeng pang habang panahon
kay adan at eba isisisi ang puno’t dulo ng gulo.
kailan ba matututo? kailan ba bubukas ang isip at puso.

Morning Lifestyle

tamad na tamad.
likod lapat na lapat.
madilim kasi kanina.
ayaw ko pa tumawa.

pabalikwas na bumangon.
lalamunan parang tuyong dahon.
diresto sa lababo.
inom, mumog, buga.

bawat umaga.
parang sirang plaka.
iisa ang tugtog.
tyaga tyaga ka muna.

toasted bread sa almusal.
palaman margarine na mura.
sabay budbod ng asukal.
isang tasang kapeng panulak.

ligong parang aso.
tig sasampung minuto.
mabuti na lang may shower.
malas lang laging tapat sa change power.

masaya kung masaya.
isipin lang na magsusuweldo na.
sana lang wag nilang isipin.
na buhay ko ay parang reyna.

Amidst

Amidst turmoil and chaos,
We must live and go on.

Amidst betrayal and traitors,
Must always be willing to carry on.

Amidst uncertainty in every situation.
On steadfast love we can hold on.

Amidst our fear to fall,
Be brave to stand proud and tall.

Amidst tears cause by despair,
Laugh out loud, rejoice and cheer.

Amidst everything, amidst anything.

Never Be Left Behind on 2009

Whew! It’s year 2009 already. That means come my birthday on October 11 I will 30 yrs. old. I am not sure what should I title my today’s entry. But as I psyche myself that this year I will be more persistent in whatever endeavor I am into then I suppose my title will fit anyway. I admire those people who are persistent but still radiates with grace. For this year, all I want is growth in me as a daughter, a sister, a friend, a neighbor, an employee, a co-worker, and most of all my growth as a follower of Christ.

Last Day of 2008

It was strange but the last hour of 2008 I received new orders from new buyers. New buyer means new accounts which I will handle now. I was suppose to leave the office at 4pm but at around 3pm I received emails informing me that I got new orders. I was really excited as it means I will look forward to 2009 having orders. I was not that busy for the last weeks of 2008 as I got very few orders and some were even cancelled. So receiving these orders really means a lot to me. I won't mind staying longer in the office today and I won't mind coming to office tomorrow.

Thank you for Lord for this blessing and I will do my very best to fulfill my job and prove that I am worthy for the position.

Magnificent 2008

Year 2008 will be over in less than 2 days. This year was truly a magnificent year for me. Tons of tears were shed, lots of lesson learned, I met new friends, rediscover old friends, get to know myself more, build my confidence more, still failed with my weight reduce mission, learned to eat and enjoy food which makes me throw up before and so much more. I’m not sure if it was the age but lately I realized I get easily pissed off if things went wrong. I got my Chicken Soup for the Soul books – 4 Books. This year I was able to be in three countries. Cambodia, where I am working right now. Philippines, when I had my vacation leave last July. Vietnam, when I visited it last November during Water Festival holiday. For the year 2008, I think I missed going to Saturday or Sunday Catholic Mass less than 5 times only though I badly missed going to Church during the Lenten season. So many things were done and so many things happened. I am getting use to be away from my family. I love them so much and miss them always. Wish I am with them in special occasions but I love the freedom of being alone. I love to explore life independently. I love to realize things by myself right now. My parents were great and they gave everything but there are times I feel I am suffocated with their protection. Embarrassing to admit but on my 29th year on this earth, is the only year in my life I did it my (with tons of prayers) way. I was so fortunate that I came from family who had a strong Catholic life upbringing. Though I am away from my family, I know my responsibility towards my family, towards others and towards God of course.

I love 2008 and I thank God for all the guidance and blessings showered on me this year. To sum it up, year 2008 was a great year for me.
