experiencing failure makes you wiser. sometimes your confidence will diminish. failure in early stage of life somehow fuel a desire but late in life is costly and demoralizing.
Hello, thanks for your comment- :-), I totally agree about your observation, we Filipinos has so many things to work on to, :-). I hope in due time- things will become more better for everyone- especially here in the Philippines, :-)
Hi Max!! am thrilled to see you my dear, ;-) All is well, thank you so much, :-) and how are you? :-) Indeed- it makes life unpredictable exciting sometimes, lol!
As an American married to a Filipina, I agree with what you're saying. Even to me it seems like Filipinos sometimes are too focused on other cultures to see the strengths of their own and to appreciate their own heritage. Lots of good things to think about.
Hi Leo :D! Yes, life (like water) takes many forms; it flows (sometimes calmly, and sometimes roughly) and it always takes us to that final destination (fate). How are you, darling? Cheers
i see improvements on global human rights. it's a favorite tool use by western world. i would not be very optimistic that they will confront china nor japan ... besides slap on the wrist. by the way you did a lot of reading, great reporting. could you improve human rights awareness in the philippines. that would be awesome.tnx
I don't know If I said it already but ...This blog rocks! I gotta say, that I read a lot of blogs on a daily basis and for the most part, people lack substance but, I just wanted to make a quick comment to say I'm glad I found your blog. Thanks, :) A definite great read..Jim Bean

Elegant seduction. You just put a name to what I was thinking manong joe, . I am sure you will agree with my understanding that it is a priceless “tawid” acquired from the old ways of Ilocana. I can never thank you enough for all your wonderful inputs
I have been tweaking a little bit on my poetry. With this one, I was challenged about the power of words..
.. the effect of raw honesty of emotions through simple, unassuming words..
vs.
…the pull of the layered thoughts embedded in the ramblings of the mystical stuff..

unseen-
but felt.
Especially loved that line.

And your take on half the world away in ingenious. Well done!

come
closer.
how can it be that
two words can bind
a soul towards the spell
of a glance embedded in
these one-of-a-kind strokes of art.
