If You're Planning An Abortion

I was in the middle of working on my office task when I saw this Anti Abortion video. The video include the song entitled "Does God See This Child?" by Susan Piper. This song is written for pregnant women who don't know if she will have her child. Does God See This Child? They tell me it's a choice They say it's up to me That I need to decide That I say what will be Well, I don't feel a thing It doesn't even show And now I'm playing God Would God say 'yes' or 'no'? Does God see this child So deep inside of me Does He have a dream for her A plan for her A thought for her Does God love this child Before she's even formed Before she has her voice Before she's born ...

Deal or No Deal? "Your Fate, Your Decision"

I love watching the Kapamilya, Deal or No Deal game show every night. It's like a mind-boggling exercise after dinner. In this show, I have seen a number of triumphant winners with high spirits but mostly went home sad and wondering why fate has turned its back on them.

In the past days, I learned that some people and things just stay the way they are. We can't do anything to change them for it's God's work. We just need to accept that fact even if it hurts. Life is a cycle, a wheel, a roller coaster. Those we hated will be gone after some time and we will fill in their vacant slots. So in the end, we may be hated, too. Is it too obvious how ironic life is? Do I make sense? Watc...
