World: OFF






Alas singko na naman! (Uwian na!!!)
Tapos na naman ang isang araw na pakikipagbuno para sa kakarampot na sweldo. Masakit sa likod, mahapdi sa mata, sige na buong katawan na masakit (sabay hilot ng ngalay na kamay)

Pagkapa mo sa bulsa mo, kulang na pamasahe mo,
Buti nalang malapit lang bahay niyo
At di nagbuhos ng galit sayo ang kalangitan.
Tsagaan mo nalang lakarin, saying din ng walong piso (buntong hininga)


Headphones: ON – World: Off

Sabay hakbang ng paa…

Lahat na yata ng polusyon masasalubong mo sa daan,
Ang walang katapusang pagkalabit ng mga batang lansangan
upang manghingi ng barya…
Ang mga sasakyang walang pakundangan sa pagbusina 
at parang mga pusit sa pagbuga ng maitim sa usok mula sa tambutso nila
Ang mga nagkalat na basurang walang mapaglagyan
sa kabila ng kaliwa’t kanang “trash bin”
Ang sabay sabay na sagutan at bangayan ng mga tindera at mamimili
sa isang tindahan ng tinapay
At ang masalimuot na amoy ng hangin, walang katulad.

Pero sa kabila ng lahat…
May mga bagay ka pading ipagpapasalamat

Ang pag akap ng buwan sa araw
Ang malamig na simoy na hangin
Ang mga ibong Malayang nakakalipad sa kalangitan
Ang musikang dumadaloy sa puso mo,
Ang pawis na pumapatak mula sa noo mo.
At sa wakas, nakauwi ka na sa bahay niyo.

Daily Prompt: Just Keep Swimming

They (my sister and my niece) were watching  “Finding Nemo” last Sunday,  and that moment I was plucking my guitar,  I was about to get my capo when I heard clearly what Dory says (the blue fish)  “Just keep on swimming, just keep on swimming” Oh! That’s it! (Seems like God use Dory to remind me this)   When things seem to be impossible to do,  “Just keep on swimming, just keep on swimming” When you feel tired  “Just keep on swimming, just keep on swimming” When in doubt  “Just keep on swimming, just keep on swimming” Because when life gets you down, that's what you've got to do… “Just keep on swimming, just keep on swimming” Not literally but to "Move Forward in Faith" ^_^ #Amen #TYL #ThanksDory #EnduringHeart #FearlessFaith  #71of365

Daily prompt: Antukin

God reveals His love for us in incredible ways. Sometimes, through the songs we hear. As I was watching ICON concert last night, God just so happened to speak through this line: “…Mahalin mo nalang ako ng sobra – sobra, para patas naman tayo diba?” I was excited to have a meaningful conversation with God  since it’s the revelation of His promise, of His love for us. I was excited for His message. (This Holy Week) And that song sums it up! MIND = BLOWN, HEART = BLOWN Jesus reveals His love for us; it’s our turn… Worry not, there’s a sweet line from God  reminding us that all things will be done according to His will. “ Merong langit na nagtatanggol sa Pag ibig na pursigido't matyaga”   Isn’t it amazing? #HolyWeekEncounter #TYL #LoveMORE

Daily Prompt: Reflection Paper

“We have to learn it this way” as I lead the prayer to end the last session of our Integration class.  While reflecting on my experience of taking up Intergration, I came up to a realization that I trully enjoyed the process. I remember, I was really excited when our teacher announced the “Major major project” in her subject. I really love the experience in dealing with business – oriented individuals, how they start  the business and what are the values they possess in order for them to keep the business on top. And I know that I am the type of person who loves to learn more knowledge in and out of the classroom. But  a “team project” leads to an “individual group work”,  we have no one to blame but ourselves. I, myself should have a sense of responsibility, since I am one of the senior students, It was difficult at times to motivate myself to do the work, since I see the other groups do their best effort to collaborate with the team.  But there’...
