An Illusionary Emotion

Wednesday, July 9, 2008 1 comments

Sometimes, persons assume to be loved and blessed by someone. There were a lot of times that we may feel to have illusions on something that is wrongly felt. Just like a love that we believe that we ever had, but the truth is, there is no love from the start.

People try being more ambitious and wanted to achieve greatness. They never try to think of how impossible dreams would be. And yet, when they realize it, they already failed. But failing is not the basis. It is because when we dream higher, we fall much deeper.

The reality can be mean and we are living in this cruel and unstopping world. We feel pushed down and bullied by the natures of the earth. When we know that we fail, we never accepted it. Instead, we try to counter what fate really wants. And when we realize that illusionary emotions exist, that is when we try to quit and exit.

Bridging The Gap

Sunday, July 6, 2008 1 comments

Sometimes, we tend to believe what is myth. We try to convince ourselves of those impossible dreams, that we may fly to success and express our freedom of speech. But yet, we forget where we started and we became foolish and stubborn. When we grab and grasp our goals, when we embrace our success, we forget anyone, even our selves and we focus on what is ahead of us. And yet, we run from our failures and even criticize and judge other’s weaknesses. Let’s face what is in front of us and let’s not forget where we came from, because in life, bridging the gap is all that matters.

A Tough Judgment

Saturday, June 28, 2008 1 comments

A very intriguing and a devastating event will be this June 29, 2008. To all Professional Boxing fanatics, this is what you have been waiting for. A cruel and perfect match to test each others strength and strategy with every inch of it. Testing every instinct and showing who's the boss!

Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao, a Filipino citizen, born at General Santos City. A phenomenal champion and proved his existence in boxing. One of the most powerful and explosive boxer of his time. A living legend I guess will measure his toughness in this lethal combination with Diaz(forgive me for forgetting the name), a hard fighter who also defeated Erik Morales. This will be a blast with these two brave fighters!

Watch it out!

Screen all donation sources: From Bishop To Cfc

Sunday, April 20, 2008 0 comments

A religious group known across the seas which is called CFC (Couples of Christ) has extended their hands to the poor and helped those who suffer in starvation and sickness. In Philippines, a controversy began to explode about any donation leakage or should I say something that is not meant to be donation that made the community in its weakest hour. But, the community has stood up its ground and continued its part in the community. This community have made Philippines less poor through extending their excess blessings to those who haven’t. Through GK(Gawad Kalinga) Project, they build homes for the poor and homeless.

Though they still continue to serve, the controversy doesn’t die. Thus, a Bishop from the Philippines urged the CFC to monitor the donations in order to have an accurate number of money they are holding and to keep the family away from the issue of corruption. In order to do this, the Bishop suggested to screen the companies that wanted to help in all the programs of the said community.

Today, the CFC continues to extend help to those people in need and never tired of helping them. CFC is at its full service, for God, and for the same species.

GMA on NBN ZTE Deal

0 comments

A pending petition to release the NEDA documents which will be of great help in pinning down PGMA on her position due to US$329-million national broadband deal with the ZTE corp is still under the decision of the Supreme Court.

Although the petition is under process, it was believed to be relevant and will be the key to answer the questions of the said broadband deal scandal. It will also be the key for the senate to freely ask questions to former National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) Chief Romulo Neri. The said petition was filed last year in the month of October because of the refusal of Neri to answer questions from the senate.

NEDA secretary general told the Senate that NEDA could not release the said documents since the documents are covered with executive privilege. Since the petition amis to seek answers from people who are said to be in affiliates in the ZTE broadband deal.

Because of this, there are more summed ideas that the documents in the NEDA will be the answer for this pending case. As of now, all we can do is wait and see where this case will be leading. I just hope, this case will not be put to trash.

IRRI: High Rice Price up to 2 Years

0 comments

Rice prices really keep on increasing. Now, vegetables start to increase and just make citizens carry extra burden. IRRI (International Rice Research Institute) said that rice price will not decrease in two years span. The Philippine based institute warned the civilians of this rice price increase and government started to give civilians with cheap rice to sustain life. It was said that it will take longer time to make rice price decrease since rice is an international product and many countries are asking for it.

People all around the globe consumes rice and many people consume rice more than what they are expected. Farmers producing rice is needed but it is useless for now since, population increases faster than rice, it is certainly an imbalance. In Philippines, rice is essential and many poor families struggled in buying rice. Now, poor families struggle much more because of the increasing price of vegetables that have been a good alternative for meat.

This was because rice was reported to be increasing and diminishing its stock. Then, these businessmen made this issue truer and put an immediate increase in rice just for their profit. IRRI said that this issue mostly affects urban poor as well as farmers who farm and harvest. Note that farmers don’t have any advantage on rice since they are only workers and they need to buy rice from their own salary.

On my own opinion, this 2 years time would be deadly to us. Philippines have poor people to be thinking of and it will be a very long time. Burden will always be a burden. Rice increase means death. People need rice and it’s very useful for us. 2 years of this issue is risky.

Road Trip Kept Me Awake!

Wednesday, April 9, 2008 0 comments

I really care less and give a little attention on going for a road trip. It just feels boring and uncomfortable when you travel until you get to your target place. The truth is, when I was young, I experience travelling more than a couple of times. And I don’t see anything special to it. I’m really not fond of taking pictures along the way and I’d rather not try it, but not until now, having discovered the greatness of nature’s appearance and its grace.

I got myself on my way to Cagayan,Philippines, a five-hour travel by land from Davao City, Philippines, joining my mother’s trip for her job.
Since, she will be the only one traveling and it would be tiring to drive without having someone to talk to. We started travelling from six in the morning and arrived at the spot within almost eleven in the morning. While on the road, I really can’t help to be sleepy since I don’t enjoy travelling. And I didn’t even noticed that I felt asleep. Suddenly, not knowing what’s going on, I woke up because my mother was calling my name and saying “Kuya, look at your right side area. Does it look nice?”. Well I gave it a try to look and I really got shocked with what I saw. I felt I was at the top of the clouds and just a sight away from them. These clouds are below me. That picture really made me awoke for the rest of the road trip to get a copy of it and have it posted here to be shared to you guys. Well, here is the picture below. I hope you will like it too. The same way I do.

Rice Price Rises! So What?

Monday, April 7, 2008 0 comments

After a recent report on lacking supply of rice in Philippines, rice sellers started to increase rice’s price in which poverty is much experienced. The said NFA rice (National Food Authority) was then put into public to let these less wage earner persons have enough amount of rice fitted on their income. As such, rice is known as the Filipino’s favorite food. Why? Filipinos cannot eat breakfast, lunch and dinner without it, so deal with us right now. Filipinos need rice. This really is a big deal for us and this matter can’t hit my smiles right. Rice is hitting our pockets deeply!!

Reports say that Philippines is ranked as the one of the large exporters in rice. But yet, Philippines gets a relatively high rice price. Experts put to account the continuous rise of expenses such as fertilizer and fuel as well and also the climate change and pests that destroy the product. Farmers pointed out that they aren’t benefiting from it. A farmer said that if this continues, his family will go hungry. They can’t afford it for sure if rice still rise. The rice prices hit 50 percent increase on world market in which it really is a big deal for the world.

So what if rice rises? Not only Philippines set rice as a fave food. Japan also loved rice, Vietnam, China, Thailand, US and other countries in which rice is greatly in need. There will be scar in every region of the world. Every country will have an insufficient supply that will cause its people to experience hunger. Let me answer it. If price increases, there will also be a relatively increase of hunger. Don’t you think?
