Stalemate

We started the game, and I admit it was pretty cool. I enjoyed playing with you but you know what… we’re stalemate. There’s no loser because nobody wins. You are good at playing, I was too dumb sometimes but I manage to cope up. At first it was hard, really. It was very hard to deal with this kind of mess. But thanks a lot for helping me out… Thank you for ignoring me, for avoiding me, for hurting me and most of all, thank you for the game. I really learned a lot.

I thought I was over it but I’m troubled. Maybe it’s what they called “after shock” Now I’m dealing with it. Really hard but I believe that I can handle this shit. And I’m doing great now, like what you are. I know what I did, unlike what you think. I’m not the kind of person who would regret the assholes on my life. I played with your mess, muddled with your shits. I knew that, but I persist because I’m learning through it.

You know what? you’re not the only person who can do your cranky moves! Look at me now, I did it too. I’m a bad playmate… what you think? Now what’s next? I’m over it. I don’t wanna play again and I think that’s what you want. Avoid me because you’re afraid to fall, so am I. So let’s just stick with this and go on with our lives. Oh, one last words for yah… DON’T TALK SHITS WITH ME MTHRFCKR!!!

so make the most of it and enjoy the ride.

Desperate Housewives: Discriminating Filipinos

Desperate Housewives: Discriminating Filipinos - Public Apology Is Not Enough!

I haven’t watched that episode of the infamous series “Desperate Housewives”. But I saw it on the news where Teri Hatcher spoke out her lines “Before you go any further, can I check those diplomas? I would just like to make sure that they’re not from some med school in the Philippines.... “I’m not a medical person but it really hurts when someone is discriminating Filipinos and to be aired ON-AIR, with the whole world watching their show, that’s really something.

The public apology is not enough! How could you bring back the dignity and the integrity of us Filipinos? By that simple apology? Well to tell you, THAT’S NOT ENOUGH! You’re like ruining the whole country! And devastating the lives of all Filipinos all over the world. Before you speak something or make something, be sure you think of it many times.

For the writer and for the ABC network, make ways on how to bring back the Filipino dignity! You’re condemning the Philippines by doing that such thing.

To be honest, most of you are outsourcing us Filipinos for jobs. You outsource call center agents, outsource programmers and other skilled professionals for the job and in fact, you continue doing it! But how could you do something like that!?!

We Filipinos are very proud for who and what we are. And we cannot tolerate things and people who are discriminating our clan! I’m so disappointed on you! And I will never ever watch Desperate Housewives anymore for the rest of my life! You deserve to be banned for what you did!

I know everyone of us commit mistakes, but on your part, you didn’t think before you act!

The Wooden Bowl

I guarantee you will remember the tale of the Wooden Bowl tomorrow, a week from now, a month from now, a year from now.

A frail old man went ! to live with his son, daughter-in- law, and four-year old grandson. The old man's hands trembled, his eyesight was blurred, and his step faltered. The family ate together at the table.

But the elderly grandfather' s shaky hands and failing sight made eating difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor. When he grasped the glass, milk spilled on the tablecloth.

The son and daughter-in- law became irritated with the mess. "We must do something about father," said the son. "I've had enough of his spilled milk, noisy eating, and food on the floor."

So the husband and wife set a small table in the corner. There, Grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner. Since Grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl!

When the family glanced in Grandfather' s direction, sometime he had a tear in his eye as he sat alone. Still, the only words the couple had for him were sharp admonitions when he dropped a fork or spilled food.

The four-year-old watched it all in silence. One evening before supper, the father noticed his son playing with wood scraps on the floor. He asked the child sweetly, "What are you making?"Just as sweetly, the boy responded, "Oh, I am making a little bowl for you and Mama to eat your food in when I grow up." The four-year-old smiled and went back to work .

The words so struck the parents so that they were speechless. Then tears started to stream down their cheeks. Though no word was spoken, both knew what must be done.

That evening the husband took Grandfather' s hand and gently led him back to the family table. For the remainder of his days he ate every meal with the family. And for some reason, neither husband nor wife seemed to care any longer when a fork was dropped, milk spilled, or the tablecloth soiled.

On a positive note, I've learned that, no matter what happens, how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.

I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she
handles four things: a rainy day, the elderly, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.

I've learned that, regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life.

I've learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as making a "life.."

I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.

I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands. You need to be able to throw something back.

I've learned that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you. But if you focus on your family, your friends, the needs of others, your work and doing the very best you can, happiness will find you.

I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.

I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.

I've learned that every day, you should reach out and touch someone.

People love that human touch -- holding hands, a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.

I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.!

PROBLEMS

All of us have so many problems in our lives. Problems of this… problems of that… we even tend to shoulder the problems of others just to have something to think of. There are so many questions in our lives and we keep on looking for the possible answers. Those questions make us analyze the things that happened, or happening to us.

All we have to do is face our problems. Find answers to our questions. Find time for ourselves to be happy. Think of something that can make our lives worthy. How can we do these things? We can do these by facing our problems. We can do these by having an open-mind on the situation.

With our problems, we gain wisdom… we gain knowledge… we gain ourselves. In every problem that we solved, we are moving towards another level. So why do we have to run away? Why do we have to escape? There's nothing to lose but there's definitely something to gain.

TIME...

Time… time… time….

Time to forgive urself and let urheart be free of all the bitterness u've felt.

Time to beleive that there's someone out there that could love u even better.

Time to move on and make urself happy.

Time to be urself and face the consequences of life.

Time to love and time to be hurt.

Time for you, time for me, time for everybody to set ourselves free of all the worries in our lives.
