Time

We only have one life. We only borrowed it from God. It is something that we should treasure and value. The time given to us should always be well spent.

Sometimes we often neglect the importance of time. Maybe because we are too pre-occupied by different things. Sometimes we always tell ourselves that we still have tomorrow to do the things that should be done by now.... then the cycle goes on and on until we reached the end of the line.

I received a very interesting email that taught me how to realize the value of time.... click here...

This does not make SENSE!!!

I received a forwarded email from a friend of mine entitled "Kung Tinatamad". At first I thought that this will somehow cheer me up coz the topic is quite interesting. But as I read the content, it turns out to be a TURN-OFF! This is really non-sense and I just hope that people that write such stuff will realize that what they are doing is "BADUY". This is so elementary and I just can't bare reading it up to the last sentence...
Whoever you are... sorry.... not my type of stuff.. :(

About Friendship... by Anain Nin


"Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born. "

Indeed it was... Each friend represents a part of ourselves.. Each friend mirrors a part of your soul...

Greed sometimes turns to bread...

Today is Valentines day.... I'm not usually celebrating this day. I always consider everyday a "Love day" coz I have my family, friends, and my honey. I always look at this day as an ordinary day...

A while ago, while working I recieved a mail coming from UNICEF. Actually it was mailed by BPI(Bank of the Philippine Islands). They are asking for donations (via Credit Card... *sigh*) for support in their projects, which is to prevent the death rate of mothers and babies here in the Philippines. Noble cause but I told myself I am also in need... I have alot of wants... I still have so many dreams....

But things took a turn and I flushed away my greed, and started reading the letter. The mail is actually compose of a letter, a sort of a "book-catalogue" about the information of the death rate here in the Philipines, and a Business Reply Envelope. All materials are made up of cheap recycled paper... cheap.. yes it was all recycled.... but indeed it was full of meaning... full of love... full of care... full of art..

I never thought that I'll be moved.... I was not moved by the pictures... nor the statistics... nor the mother's and babies.... I was moved because I realized I'm very blessed to be where I am now. I am moved because I realize that while I eat my breakfast, lunch, or dinner, there are families begging for food. I realized that all my wants and material dreams are just luxuries... and not necessities.... I realized that there are alot of people in dire need of love, nourishment, and care... I realized that I have "more" than what I should have... I realized I have spare.....


Lastly I realized that the least thing that I can do is to share....

Roses For Rose - A Valentine Story

A very touching poem-story. It will make you realize that life is short and worth spending. I also realized that appreciating someone you love will make your relationship grow more. The poem made my heart burn. Deep inside me there is something that made me cry. Maybe because of how deep the poem showed love and affection. Maybe because the poem showed my inner self. Maybe the poem showed one facet of my life..... Or maybe just because I'm me...

Please have time to read the poem, it is worth reading, it will help you face life. Hope we understand the meaning of love.. It is best exemplified not only of material things, but of your pure and clear affection...

Happy Valentine's Day.....

Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Edition

"The Pinoy Big Brother fever is alive once again with the successful premiere of Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Edition! Last night, thousands of people gathered in Baywalk, Manila to witness the grand presentation of Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Edition's 14 housemates, who have started a new exciting adventure inside Big Brother’s house.

In a star-studded grand welcome party, the fans of the number one reality TV show finally got to meet the 14 housemates. And as early as now, it seems that the PBB diehards have already picked their personal favorites! Here are the 14 housemates who were formally introduced to the public during last night’s show."

Of all the celebrity housemates, I like Keanna Reeves to emerge as the 1st Celebrity PBB grand winner. I don't know, but there is something in her that I really like. She's so transparent, kikay, and very hilarious. There is definitely a charm in her, that makes her "stay" in showbiz. I hope she wins...


My second choice is between Roxanne or Gretchen. Roxanne because I like her face (especially when she curls her hair), Gretchen because of her achievements as a black belter in karatedo.


4th choice will be Mr Rudy Fernandez (D' Athelete, not D' Actor hehehe) because of his determination and passion for sports :)...


Note:


What happened to Rustom? He looks like a different person.... hmmm...

Excellence
Main Entry: ex·cel·lence
Pronunciation: 'ek-s(&-)l&n(t)s
Function: noun
1 : the quality of being excellent
2 : an excellent or valuable quality : VIRTUE
3 : EXCELLENCY


Definition taken from Meriam-Webster Online
...........................................................


People are afraid to commit mistakes, afraid of letting the world know that they failed. Sometimes we keep it to ourselves and cry silently till our hearts burn. Sometimes we try to blame others just to cover up the pain that we feel. I guess that's not what God wants us to do.

I always believe that failures give us something to learn. Learning in the sense that we can overcome problems that made us stumble in the ground. It gives us the courage to stand again after a deep fall. It gives us a reason to laugh over our weaknesses, to smile over our mistakes, and to recognise every possibility to succeed.

"As long as I'm alive, I still have a chance!", I always tell that to myself. It's very hard to do, but I always try. I always tell my self that "Excellence does not require Perfection". Excellence requires conviction to what you believe in. Excellence requires courage to face every fear. Excellence requires passion in what you do. And Excellence requires deep faith in your self and most specially to God , almighty.

So Let's erase "perfection" in our lives... We can't achieve it, no matter what we do. Let's accept that we're human, born to make mistakes, just like what the song says. Let's try to tell our selves, "I did great, I did alot of mistakes, and I think I'm well fulfilled!".... ciao...
