What Can You Say....?

"A man is likely to mind his own business when it is worth minding. When it is not, he takes his mind off his own meaningless affairs by minding other people's business."

Have you been a victim of this "man" or "woman"? If yes..then we're on the same boat.

Reminiscing: Ballad of a Mother's Heart

Two weeks ago, I happened to be with the "golden ladies". They were called golden ladies because they're already in their golden age: 50-something. I thought I'll feel awkward because of the age gap but in the end I was wrong. When women at my age had some chit-chats probably it would be about friends, food, fashion, work or even boys (men). On the other hand, these golden ladies were very concerned with their children, grandchildren, and their in-laws (especially). They had some outbursts on how they don't like their in-laws and on how pitiful their children for having the wrong choice of husband/wife. That's when I remembered a poem during my gradeschool. This poem was written by Jose La Villa Tierra. It speaks on the love of parents for their children, how forgiving and how great the love of a mother is for her son/daughter although he/she has hurt her very much. Ballad of a Mother's Heart The night was dark, For the moon was young, And the Stars were a

Oh What A Rain!

I visited the PAG-ASA site today and according to them: Central and Southern Luzon and Visayas will experience monsoon rains. The rest of the country will have mostly cloudy skies with scattered rainshowers and thunderstorms. Moderate to strong winds blowing from the southwest will prevail over Central and Southern Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao and the coastal waters along these areas will be moderate to rough. Elsewhere, winds will be light to moderate coming from the southwest and northwest with slight to moderate seas except during thunderstorms. The rain will probably be pouring down for the next few days. Thinking about waiting for the sunny days, I remembered a song I used to sing with my grade school classmates: If all the raindrops were lemon drops and gum drops Oh, what a rain that would be! I’d stand outside with my mouth open wide—– Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah Oh, what a rain that would be! There's a Tagalog ve

Chasing Dreams and Fireflies

In this late-twenties age, I should have grown up and let go of my childhood fantasies. Perhaps, those who have the same age as mine would agree that no matter how we embraced our dreams, we ended up acting upon only some of them. However, I could not keep myself from succumbing to my childhood dreams and memories. It seemed like I did not want it to slip away. It felt like I am still hanging on to the last little piece of the past. Somehow, there is a little child inside of me who don’t want to let go of the simple fun and happy memories back when my life was still careless and free. There are times when I am convincing myself that Earth turns slowly even when in reality, life is so fast. I want to stay as a kid because life is so much better and my imaginations seemed so real when I was young. Now that I am older, I can just dream those memories away and run after the life filled with wonder and hope and plain joy. It’s like chasing fireflies! This song from Owl City is dedicated to
