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

Thanks Sayan!:-) my friend cried when I gave the framed text to her as an engagement gift, she evem wanted it to be their wedding vows. I don’t know if that’s allowed,:-).
Hello I.Cant, thank you for your comment,:-) Yes, I was moved by the way she reacted. My purpose was to give them a constant reminder of the beauty of being together, of Love and marriage, although I have yet to prove that myself,lol!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. Believe me, it is greatly appreciated
On another note, there is a poll being displayed at the MW Site that requires your vote, if you haven’t done so already. I would truly appreciate it if you can take the time to go there.
Excellent and beautiful………..you have described the beauty of being together such beautifully that it lets me wonder that is being in love so beautiful!! Must say your friend is lucky to have you as a friend and such gift for engagement
My Lord: beautiful poem!!!
It is funny because I know exactly what you are talking about here…it is like love as some basic vocabulary that is common to everybody.
Eyes that are an eternal hope…lips that are paradise…loving arms where one will reside…heart that is life…
Can everybody see the beauty of this? The immense beauty of these words…
Hey there, dreammer!:-) thanks, dear friend. I’ve been trying to figure out that same thought..how wonderful love can be for those who already found it..as for me, don’t know if it’s with the future to come, or it already passed me by..:-). Ever watched “Runaway Bride”…? I think, I’ve been doing something like that,lol!
Hey there Max!:-) Always great to see you here, my dear, that’s an overwhelming comment, thank you, and hugs,:-). I was, and still is, down with the flu. It’s the weather, I guess.:-)
Hmmmm…:-) you got me thinking with your comment, my dear:-) Am I correct to assume that you are one of the blessed ones who have known love, with a beauty such as what I was thinking while rewriting this poem? If the answer is yes, I must say, I am so happy for you dear!
