eyesore sa peysbook

Thu, 14 Jun 2012 22:28:16 +0800

Sabi ni dora, “ate, please, walang basagan ng trip.” Pero agit ako ngayon kaya babasagin ko ang trip ng iba kong kaibigan sa facebook. Pansin ko lang, walang sawa talaga ang pag-ikot ng “if you love jesus share this” tsaka yung mga picture ng mahihirap na kailangan ilike para marpove na may puso ka.

Makitid ba ang utak ko at wala akong puso kaya di ko gets kung bakit shinishare at nilalike ng mga tao? Uto-uto nalang ba talaga ang henerasyon na ‘to o sadyang bored ang mga tao? O baka naman type talaga nila yung picture kaya nila nilalike at share (kung sabagay, maganda naman talaga yung mga litrato ng duguan at malnourished na mga tao). Hanggang sa paglalike at share nalang ba ang sense ng mga tao para makatulong sa kapwa o para iprove ang kanilang pananampalataya o paniniwala? Ilang beses nang binabash ng mga post sa 9gag ang mga pakulong ito, pero like pa din naman ng like ang mga tao. Patuloy pa din ang paglaganap ng eyesore na ito.

Ilang beses na akong nagcocomment sa topic na ito. Di ko kasi talaga gets. Explain niyo naman sakin oh. Enlighten me.

p.s. Kung gusto niyo naman tumulong, madami namang tunay na paraan, na no brainer din. Paupuin mo sa bus ang isang nakatatanda na mukang mabigat ang dalahin. Kaysa itapon mo yung tira mo na pagkain, maghanap ka nalang ng pulubi sa kalsada, mas kailangan niya ang pagkain mo kaysa sa basurahan ng jollibee o kung ano man peyborit mong kainan. Kung gusto mo ng challenge, edi mag-aral ka ng mabuti, ang laking tulong nun sa magulang mo, promise. Better yet, mag agriculture ka o community development o kung ano mang kurso ang sa tingin mo makakatulong para ihone ang skills mo para matulungan mo ang Pilipinas. hahaha :p

Pepe Diokno: The 'clean slate' generation

Pepe Diokno: The 'clean slate' generation:

pepediokno:

This week, we learned from CNN that the median age of Filipinos is 22.9 years old. 22.9. We’ve just passed puberty.

Now, a median number is a midpoint — meaning, half of our population is older than 22.9, and the other half is younger. This is a really surprising statistic. It means that most…

what skyflakes can do

Mon, 19 Mar 2012 19:55:55 +0800

On my way home, I saw a little boy, not more than two years old, crying inside a kariton. He was holding an empty skyflakes wrapper. His cry was silent and his tears already dried up on his cheeks, a sign that he has been crying for some time. His father was going through some trash, looking for recyclable stuff. I instantly remembered that I have some skyflakes in my bag. So I gave it to the little boy. The sparkle in his eyes and the smile that he gave me when he saw the thing in my hand and when i handed it over to him was just priceless. After giving it to the little boy, I walked away. His father didn’t see me since he was busy. While walking I heard someone shout “Salamat Ate!” I turned around and I saw that it was the little boy’s father that said thank you to me. He was also smiling. His smile was sincere and heartwarming. I also noticed that he was still young, probably also in his early 20’s like me. I looked over to the kid and he was holding up the skyflakes, the way Kino, from the book The Pearl by John Steinbeck, held the precious pearl he found. It was just one pack of skyflakes, 3 pieces of cracker, 7 pesos. And yet the smile that the little boy and his father had was priceless. Their smiles made my day. I was smiling all the way home. If only our government officials would honestly serve our nation and give our kababayans, especially the poor, the service that all citizens of this nation deserve, then there would deffinitely be a lot more smiles everywhere. If only they would not the billions of pesos that they corrupt from the taxes and use the money to help the real owners of this money have better lives. If a 7 peso cracker can do that much, what more can these billions of corrupted money do to develop this nation. Oh yeah, another thought, RH. If only the RH bill is passed, there would be much less “unwanted” pregnancies and homeless children crying in the streets. (if you consider a kariton a home then maybe they’re not homeless after all) *by unwanted i mean that the conception of the child was accidental or that the parents were not prepared or capable of raising a child. all children should loved and wanted. :)

On fighting

Tue, 06 Mar 2012 00:48:00 +0800

Sometimes, no matter how hard I fight for the things that my heart desires, things still don’t go my way; even though I know that there was nothing wrong with it, and that I gave my best. Fighting for love always sound heroic and right thing to do. But why does life seem to be against me? This thought reminded me of three things.

The first thing is that our hearts are very playful. Not because it shouts out someone’s name or it deems an action reasonable, it means that it’s right. People tell us to follow our hearts. And that is the right thing to do. But it only becomes the right thing to do if our hearts are full and whole. Because when it’s bruised and broken, it’ll only tell you foolishness and lies. It will only make you fight the wrong fight, and end up even more hurt.

The second thing is on seasons. As in, winter, spring, summer and fall. This is probably the advice that I tell people the most. That there are seasons in our lives, and we must learn to enjoy every season. There is a time for everything. Things and people are just shared to us for a moment, but they will never be forever ours. And so we must appreciate them while they’re still with us. And when they’re gone, we shouldn’t say that life is unfair because they’re gone, but we should still try to smile and remember the sweet moments we had with them. There are just some things that we can’t understand at the moment, or are not humanly possible to comprehend, but surely, in the future, we’ll realize why they were meant to be.

The third thing is that in the end, it’s still God’s will that is followed, by nature, humanity or fate, whatever you call it. It’s His show, not mine. It’s His creation, and not my life. And I just have to trust that His will is perfect and His plan for me is way way way better than the best plan I can make for my life. He knows the desires of my heart. Align you’re heart to Him and walk with Him all the days of your life. You can never go wrong with God.

These things that I’ve been reminded of are based on my experiences and knowledge. It’s funny because despite these things that I believe in, I’m here again, back to ground zero. I didn’t follow my own principles. I followed my broken heart and got lost in the way. So don’t count on me to be the person to live a godly life because my life is far from godly. More than being a message to others, I guess this post is actually a challenge I’m setting against myself. Because I know what I need to do in order to be happy, it’s just that I keep on wrestling with God. I lack the courage to fight for God and so I ended up fighting against Him instead. And fighting against Him means that he won’t be able to do his will in my life. But if I know the secret to happiness, and if I was once on my way to happiness, what still hinders me from going for it? Well, there’s fear, as I’ve mentioned earlier. And pride. And still pride. And more pride. So I guess the real challenge is not to follow God, because a relationship with God, although hard, is perfection. The challenge is to stop finding pleasure from my achievements or for what I’ve done for myself, and to start doing things that will satisfy God and fight with him. As one of our pastors preached last Sunday, you may leave the place crippled, but the crippling will only lead to greater blessing. This will be one tough journey. Challenge accepted? I guess…I should. *fingers crossed*

Wed, 29 Feb 2012 22:16:59 +0800

EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO VOTE. Because only in doing so can you say that you took part in trying to elect the candidate whom you think deserves that position the most. Only in doing so can you say that this is OUR college and university student council, and affirm to them not to waste your vote and break your trust. Be a responsible and critical iskolar ng bayan. Vote. Election day is tomorrow, March 1. Let’s aim for a 100% voters turnout for UP Diliman.

Thu, 23 Feb 2012 21:57:00 +0800

Minsan nagsasakripisyo tayo para pag-ibig… Kasi one of a kind siya, kasi sa tingin mo siya ang true love mo, soul mates ika nga. Kahit mag mukang tanga o masakatan, okay lang, para naman sa pag-ibig eh. Pero minsan, kahit okay lang, kahit kaya mo pa, kailangan natin gumising at itigil ang pagmamahal sa kanya. Hindi dahil ayaw mo mag mukang tanga o masyado ka nang nasaktan o dahil hindi nasusuklian ang iyong pagmamahal, pero dahil sa tagal ng pagsasakripisyo mo ay natuto ka. Natutunan mo kung ano ang pag-ibig at kung paano magmahal ng tunay. At naunawaan mo na na hindi ito pagmamahal. Kalokohan. Pawang katha lamang ng pusong mapaglaro. At hindi worth-it ang pag-ibig na kalokohan lang.
