life is what you make it


A tranquil life I have experienced here in Ormoc City. So timid to say that I get the right maturity and trying to live without any pay will and now paving the best lane to go with. I knew at first that too impossible to live with nothing but never thought that I survive. Several of new friends built my booster to struggle life. they are the reason in making my foundation gone to strong..

mayon volcano eruption 2009

This season meant to have a reason that the government must take a real attention prior to the Mayon volcano eruptions. We were sad upon hearing this certain news but all we can do is to purely help those on the area. And aware those on what would be the possible circumstances that could occur if ever they were not going to leave their places which it is in the danger zone and it would totally gone to worst just if they would not.

The government should have a drastic move to perfect in prolonging life.

My Grown Up Christmas List with lyrics and video


Do you remember me
I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you
With childhood fantasies

Well, I'm all grown up now
And still need help somehow
I'm not a child
But my heart still can dream

So here's my lifelong wish
My grown up christmas list
Not for myself
But for a world in need

No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
and wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown up christmas list

As children we believed
The grandest sight to see
Was something lovely
Wrapped beneath our tree

Well heaven surely knows
That packages and bows
Can never heal
A hurting human soul

No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown up christmas list

What is this illusion called the innocence of youth
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth
(there'd be)

No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end, oh
This is my grown up christmas list

This is my grown up christmas list

ANGEL LOCSIN is DEAD


i don't know if it is true. just today, an unknown sender sent me an email that ANGEL LOCSIN is arguably dead and what buzzed me most was when messages spreading out every cellphone holders telling that ANGEL LOCSIN is totally dead due to suicide.

now i'm seeking the attention of all the readers to confirm me if this is really real.

what is christmas


Christmas or Christmas Day is an annual holiday, celebrated on December 25, that commemorates the birth of Jesus of Nazareth. The date of commemoration is not known to be Jesus' actual birthday, and may have initially been chosen to correspond with either the day exactly nine months after some early Christians believed Jesus had been conceived, a historical Roman festival, or the winter solstice. Christmas is central to the Christmas and holiday season, and in Christianity marks the beginning of the larger season of Christmastide, which lasts twelve days.

Although a Christian holiday, Christmas is widely celebrated by many non-Christians, and some of its popular celebratory customs have pre-Christian or secular themes and origins. Popular modern customs of the holiday include gift-giving, music, an exchange of greeting cards, church celebrations, a special meal, and the display of various decorations; including Christmas trees, lights, and garlands, mistletoe, nativity scenes, and holly. In addition, Father Christmas (known as Santa Claus in some areas, including North America, Australia and Ireland) is a popular mythological figure in many countries, associated with the bringing of gifts for children.

Because gift-giving and many other aspects of the Christmas festival involve heightened economic activity among both Christians and non-Christians, the holiday has become a significant event and a key sales period for retailers and businesses. The economic impact of Christmas is a factor that has grown steadily over the past few centuries in many regions of the world.

Founder of "GOOGLE"



Google Inc. is an American public corporation, earning revenue from advertising related to its Internet search, e-mail, online mapping, office productivity, social networking, and video sharing services as well as selling advertising-free versions of the same technologies. Google has also developed an open source web browser and a mobile operating system. The Google headquarters, the Googleplex, is located in Mountain View, California. As of March 31, 2009 (2009 -03-31)[update], the company has 19,786 full-time employees. The company is running thousands of servers worldwide, which process millions of search requests each day and about 1 petabyte of user-generated data every hour.
Google was founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin while they were students at Stanford University and the company was first incorporated as a privately held company on September 4, 1998. The initial public offering took place on August 19, 2004, raising $1.67 billion, implying a value for the entire corporation of $23 billion. Google has continued its growth through a series of new product developments, acquisitions, and partnerships. Environmentalism, philanthropy and positive employee relations have been important tenets during the growth of Google. The company has been identified multiple times as Fortune Magazine's #1 Best Place to Work, and as the most powerful brand in the world. Alexa ranks Google as the most visited website on the Internet.
Google's mission is "to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful" The unofficial company slogan, coined by former employee and Gmail's first engineer Paul Buchheit, is "Don't be evil". Google has been criticized for concerns relating to the privacy of personal information, copyright, as well as censorship.

Google began in January 1996, as a research project by Larry Page, who was soon joined by Sergey Brin, when they were both PhD students at Stanford University in California. They hypothesized that a search engine that analyzed the relationships between websites would produce better ranking of results than existing techniques, which ranked results according to the number of times the search term appeared on a page. Their search engine was originally nicknamed "BackRub" because the system checked backlinks to estimate the importance of a site. small search engine called Rankdex was already exploring a similar strategy.
Convinced that the pages with the most links to them from other highly relevant web pages must be the most relevant pages associated with the search, Page and Brin tested their thesis as part of their studies, and laid the foundation for their search engine. Originally, the search engine used the Stanford University website with the domain google.stanford.edu. The domain google.com was registered on 15 September 1997, and the company was incorporated as Google Inc. on 4 September 1998 at a friend's garage in Menlo Park, California. The total initial investment raised for the new company amounted to almost $1.1 million, including a $100,000 check by Andy Bechtolsheim, one of the founders of Sun Microsystems.
Both Brin and Page had been against using advertising pop-ups in a search engine, or an "advertising funded search engines" model, and they wrote a research paper in 1998 on the topic while still students. However, they soon changed their minds and early on allowed simple text ads.
In March 1999, the company moved into offices in Palo Alto, home to several other noted Silicon Valley technology startups. After quickly outgrowing two other sites, the company leased a complex of buildings in Mountain View, California at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway from Silicon Graphics (SGI) in 2003. The company has remained at this location ever since, and the complex has since come to be known as the Googleplex (a play on the word googolplex). In 2006, Google bought the property from SGI for $319 million.
The Google search engine attracted a loyal following among a growing number of Internet users, who liked its simple design and useful results In 2000, Google began selling advertisements associated with search keywords. The ads were text-based to maintain an uncluttered page design and to maximize page loading speed. Keywords were sold based on a combination of price bid and clickthroughs, with bidding starting at 5 cents per click. This model of selling keyword advertising was pioneered by Goto.com (later renamed Overture Services, before being acquired by Yahoo! and rebranded as Yahoo! Search Marketing). Goto.com was an Idealab spin off created by Bill Gross, and was the first company to successfully provide a pay-for-placement search service. Overture Services later sued Google over alleged infringements of Overture's pay-per-click and bidding patents by Google's AdWords service. The case was settled out of court, with Google agreeing to issue shares of common stock to Yahoo! in exchange for a perpetual license. Thus, while many of its dot-com rivals failed in the new Internet marketplace, Google quietly rose in stature while generating revenue.
A patent describing part of the Google ranking mechanism (PageRank) was granted on 4 September 2001. The patent was officially assigned to Stanford University and lists Lawrence Page as the inventor.

Top Ten Things You'll Never Hear a Dad Say

10. Well, how 'bout that?... I'm lost! Looks like we'll have to stop and ask for directions.

9. You know Pumpkin, now that you're thirteen, you'll be ready for unchaperoned car dates. Won't that be fun?

8. I noticed that all your friends have a certain "up yours" attitude ... I like that.

7. Here's a credit card and the keys to my new car -- GO CRAZY.

6. What do you mean you wanna play football? Figure skating not good enough for you, son?

5. Your Mother and I are going away for the weekend ... you might want to consider throwing a party.

4. Well, I don't know what's wrong with your car. Probably one of those doo-hickey thingies -- you know -- that makes it run or something. Just have it towed to a mechanic and pay whatever he asks.

3. No son of mine is going to live under this roof without an earring -- now quit your belly-aching, and let's go to the mall.

2. Whaddya wanna go and get a job for? I make plenty of money for you to spend.

1. Father's Day? aahh -- don't worry about that -- it's no big deal.

Quick as Lightning

My breath quickens,
My heart pounds,
I stalk my prey,
with lighting fast bounds.

Fear haunts,
and slows them down,
As my sword is drawn.
Thin as paper,
Tough as steel,
how it wheels in for the kill.
Plunging through,
Tearing flesh,
without a sound,
the meat is fresh.

Deepest Desire

As the sun rises in the East
So the breaking dawn of my love begins
As the sun sets in the West
I am overwhelmed with a burning desire
A desire locked down deep inside
One that cannot be concealed anymore
I long for one sweet kiss to quench my thirst
I long for one tender touch that will last a lifetime
At the end of it all you are my deepest desire!
I love you not today nor tomorrow but forever!

Subjects for a date

Marriage Humor

Subjects for a date

A boy is about to go on his first date, and is nervous about what to talk about. He asks his father for advice.

The father replies: "My son, there are three subjects that always work. These are food, family, and philosophy."

The boy picks up his date and they go to a soda fountain. Ice cream sodas in front of them, they stare at each other for a long time, as the boy's nervousness builds.

He remembers his father's advice, and chooses the first topic.

He asks the girl: "Do you like spinach?" She says "No," and the silence returns.

After a few more uncomfortable minutes, the boy thinks of his father's suggestion and turns to the second item on the list. He asks, "Do you have a brother?" Again, the girl says "No" and there is silence once again.

The boy then plays his last card. He thinks of his father's advice and asks the girl the following question: "If you had a brother, would he like spinach?"

An honest lawyer

An honest lawyer

An independent woman started her own business. She was shrewd and diligent, so business kept coming in. Pretty soon she realized she needed an in-house counsel, and so she began interviewing young lawyers.

"As I'm sure you can understand," she started off with one of the first applicants, "in a business like this, our personal integrity must be beyond question." She leaned forward. "Mr. Peterson, are you an 'honest' lawyer?"

"Honest?" replied the job prospect. "Let me tell you something about honest. Why, I'm so honest that my dad lent me fifteen thousand dollars for my education and I paid back every penny the minute I tried my very first case."

"Impressive. And what sort of case was that?"

He squirmed in his seat and admitted, "My dad sued me for the money

A parent's terrors of life

A parent's terrors of life

Dear Mother and Dad:

It has now been three months since I left for college. I have been remiss in writing and am very sorry for my thoughtlessness in not having written before. I will bring you up to date now, but before you read on, please sit down. You are not to read any further unless you are sitting down... Okay?

Well, then, I am getting along pretty well now. The skull fracture and the concussion I got when I jumped out of the window of my dormitory when it caught fire shortly after my arrival, are pretty well healed now. I only spent two weeks in the hospital and now I can see almost normally and only get three headaches a day.

Fortunately the fire in the dormitory and my jump were witnessed by an attendant at the gas station near the dorm and he was the one who called the Fire Department and the ambulance. He also visited me at the hospital, and since I had nowhere to live because of the burnt-out dorm, he was kind enough to invite me to share his apartment with him. It's really a basement room, but it is kind of cute. He is a very fine boy and we have fallen deeply in love and are planning to get married. We haven't set the exact date yet, but it will be before my pregnancy begins to show.

Yes, Mother and Dad, I am pregnant. I know how much you are looking forward to being grandparents and I know you will welcome the baby and give it the same love and devotion and tender care you gave me when I was a child. The reason for the delay in our marriage is that my boyfriend has some minor infection which prevents us from passing our premarital blood tests and I carelessly caught it from him. This will soon clear up with the penicillin injections I am now taking daily.

I know you will welcome him into our family with open arms. He is kind and although not well educated, he is ambtious. Although he is of a different race and religion than ours, I know you expressed tolerence will not permit you to be bothered by the fact that his skin color is somewhat darker than ours. I am sure you will love him as I do. His family background is good, too for I am told that his father is an important gunbearer in the village in Africa from which he comes.

Now that I have brought you up to date, I want to tell you that there was no dormitory fire, I did not have a concussion or skull fracture, I was not in the hospital, I am not pregnant, I am not engaged, I do not have syphillis and there is no boyfriend in my life. However, I am getting a "D" in History and an "F" in Science, and I wanted you to see these marks in the proper perspective.

Your loving daughter,
Dorothy

Father replies, :"O.K., son. But, first, you have to get good grades in school, keep your room clean, make the yard is neat, and cut your hair. Come back in a few months and then we'll see."

Father replies, "That's all true, but son you didn't cut your hair."

Son says, "But, dad, Jesus had long hair."

Father replies, "Yes, son, you're perfectly right. And he walked everywhere he went."

His Mother said, "Sure, sweetie. I will send you some money. You also left your economics book here when you visited two weeks ago. Do you want me to send that up too?"

"Uhh, oh yeah, O.K." responded the kid.

So his Mom wrapped the book along with the checks up in a package, kissed Dad goodbye, and went to the post office to mail the money and the book. When she gets back, Dad asked, "Well how much did you give the boy this time?"

"Oh, I wrote two checks, one for $20, and the other for $1,000."

"That's $1020!!!" yelled Dad, "Are you going crazy???"

"Don't worry hon," Mom said, kissed Dad on the on top of his bald head, "I taped the $20 check to the cover of his book, but I put the $1,000 one somewhere between the pages in chapter 15!"

What is his occupation?

A grade school teacher was asking students what their parents did for a living. "Tim, you be first," she said. "What does your mother do all day?"

Tim stood up and proudly said, "She's a doctor."

"That's wonderful. How about you, Amie?"

Amie shyly stood up, scuffed her feet and said, "My father is a mailman."

"Thank you, Amie," said the teacher. "What about your father, Billy?"

Billy proudly stood up and announced, "My daddy murders people, steals from them, and drinks."

The teacher was aghast and promptly changed the subject to geography. Later that day she went to Billy's house and rang the bell. Billy's father answered the door. The teacher explained what his son had said and asked if there might be some logical explanation.

Billy's father said, "I'm actually an attorney. But how can I explain a thing like that to a seven-year-old?"

Head goes to the bar

Head goes to the bar

A man is waiting for wife to give birth. The doctor comes in and informs the dad that his son was born without torso, arms or legs. The son is just a head! But the dad loves his son and raises him as well as he can, with love and compassion. After 21 years, the son is old enough for his first drink. Dad takes him to the bar and tearfully tells the son he is proud of him.

Dad orders up the biggest, strongest drink for his boy. With all the bar patrons looking on curiously and the bartender shaking his head in disbelief, the boy takes his first sip of alcohol. Swoooop! A torso pops out!

The bar is dead silent; then bursts into a whoop of joy. The father, shocked, begs his son to drink again. The patrons chant "Take another drink"! The bartender still shakes his head in dismay.

Swoooop! Two arms pops out. The bar goes wild. The father, crying and wailing, begs his son to drink again. The patrons chant, "Take another drink"! The bartender ignores the whole affair. By now the boy is getting tipsy, and with his new hands he reaches down, grabs his drink and guzzles the last of it. Swoooop! Two legs pop out.

The bar is in chaos. The father falls to his knees and tearfully thanks God. The boy stands up on his new legs and stumbles to the left.... then to the right.... right through the front door, into the street, where a truck runs over him and kills him instantly.

The bar falls silent. The father moans in grief. The bartender sighs and says, "That boy should have quit while he was a head."

Fathers then & now

Parenting Humor

Fathers then & now

Today is one of the first Father's Days of our new millennium. Fathers of 1900 didn't have it nearly as good as fathers of today; but they did have a few advantages:

In 1900, fathers prayed their children would learn English.

Today, fathers pray their children will speak English.


In 1900, a father's horsepower meant his horses.

Today, it's the size of his minivan.


In 1900, if a father put a roof over his family's head, he was a success.

Today, it takes a roof, deck, pool, and 4-car garage. And that's just the vacation home.


In 1900, a father waited for the doctor to tell him when the baby arrived.

Today, a father must wear a smock, know how to breathe, and make sure film is in the video camera.


In 1900, fathers passed on clothing to their sons.

Today, kids wouldn't touch Dad's clothes if they were sliding naked down an icicle.


In 1900, fathers could count on children to join the family business.

Today, fathers pray their kids will soon come home from college long enough to teach them how to work the computer and set the VCR.


In 1900, fathers pined for old country Romania, Italy, or Russia.

Today, fathers pine for old country Hank Williams.


In 1900, a father smoked a pipe.

If he tries that today, he gets sent outside after a lecture on lip cancer.

Today, a father comes home to a note: "Jimmy's at baseball, Cindy's at gymnastics, I'm at adult-Ed, Pizza in fridge."


In 1900, fathers and sons would have heart-to-heart conversations while fishing in a stream.

Today, fathers pluck the headphones off their sons' ears and shout, "WHEN YOU HAVE A MINUTE.."


In 1900, a father gave a pencil box for Christmas, and the kid was all smiles.

Today, a father spends $800 at Toys 'R' Us, and the kid screams: "I wanted Sega!"


In 1900, if a father had breakfast in bed, it was eggs and bacon and ham and potatoes.

Today, it's Special K, soy milk, dry toast and a lecture on cholesterol.


In 1900, a Father's Day gift would be a hand tool.

Today, he'll get a digital organizer.


In 1900, fathers said, "A man's home is his castle."

Today, they say, "Welcome to the money pit."


In 1900, "a good day at the market" meant Father brought home feed for the horses.

Today, "a good day at the market" means Dad got in early on an IPO.


In 1900, a happy meal was when Father shared funny stories around the table.

Today, a happy meal is what Dad buys at McDonald's.


In 1900, a father was involved if he spanked the kid now and then.

Today, a father's involved only if he coaches Little League and organizes Boy Scouts and car pools.


In 1900, when fathers entered the room, children often rose to attention.

Today, kids glance up and grunt, "Dad, you're invading my space."


In 1900, fathers threatened their daughters suiters with shotguns if the girl came home late.

Today, fathers break the ice by saying, "So...how long have you had that earring?"


In 1900, fathers pined for the old school, which meant a one-room, red-brick building.

Today, fathers pine for the old school, which means Dr J and Mickey Mantle.


In 1900, fathers were never truly appreciated.

In 2001, fathers are never truly appreciated.

Marriage quotes 02

Marriage Humor

Marriage quotes 02

Married life is full of excitement and frustration:
* In the first year of marriage, the man speaks and the woman listens.
* In the second year, the woman speaks and the man listens.
* In the third year, they both speak and the neighbors listen.

It is true that love is blind but marriage is definitely an eye-opener.

Getting married is very much like going to the restaurant with friends. You order what you want, and when you see what the other fellow has, you wish you had ordered that.

It's true that all men are born free and equal, but some of them get married!

There was this man who muttered a few words in the church and found himself married. A year later he muttered something in his sleep and found himself divorced.

A happy marriage is a matter of giving and taking; the husband gives and the wife takes.

Son: How much does it cost to get married, Dad?
Father: I don't know son, I'm still paying for it.

Son: Is it true? Dad, I heard that in ancient China, a man doesn't know his wife until he marries.
Father: That happens everywhere, son, everywhere!

"You look hot, my son," said the cleric. "why don't you rest a moment, and I'll give you a hand."

"No thanks," said the young man.

"My father wouldn't like it."

"Don't be silly," the minister said.

"Everyone is entitled to a break. Come and have a drink of water."

Again the young man protested that his father would be upset. Losing his patience, the clergyman said, "Your father must be a real slave driver. Tell me where I can find him and I'll give him a piece of my mind!"

"Well," replied the young farmer, "he's under the load of hay."

All America's architects,
surveyors and designers
will join as one until the

It must be glorious, like none other
with names in gold of all who died,
and intertwined between the pillars
shrubs and flowers ~ maintained
with pride. Travellers all around the

their heads... Is this a dream
that could come true?
America will see it through.

A hard life it seems,
far from our dreams...
no time for fun
or to sit in the sun
idling the hours away.
For bread we have none
until toil is done
and we take home
our pittance of pay.

Words That Rhyme

Rationalization and

Nationalization

are words which may open

security's door - for awhile.

But Immigration's Naturalization,

are words which may cause the

population figure to rise as

never before.

Words On My Mind Forever

O to be in England
When I was young and twenty.

Sitting happily in my chair
I now recall so very well
All the words that cast a spell:
February - forty-six, a fact
Bank of England Act...
July the fifth, forty-eight
~~The Appointed Day~~
When our Nation's Health
Service came to stay.
In the next decade came
The Clean Air Act...what
A great impact this had
On our lives and our
Environment

O to be in England
When I was young and thirty.

Words Of An Innocent Man

At last I am walking
In faraway places
Longing to greet
Green open spaces.
Prison...goodbye
Prison...oh why
Did you deny me
Feminine graces?
'An innocent man'

At last I am talking
To friends and relations
True hearts believing
My honest intentions.
Prison...goodbye
I forgive you that's why
I now walk in heaven's
Wide floral spaces
'An innocent man'.

Words From The Heart

Forty words:

Your writing is the neatest
your poems are the sweetest
those stanzas are the fairest
and... they are the rarest,
the meaning so inviting
the wording so exciting.
Your sentiments are a token of
our true love ~ as yet unspoken.

Words Flow From His Heart

Style of Thomas Hardy -
He to She:

May to October,
how the months hurry by...
it's the sad day tomorrow
when we say goodbye.
Sweet moments were magical
with you and your charms.
My stay has been wonderful
alone in your arms.
A holiday to remember
near sea and sand.

But at dawn's early light
I must go - can't you see?
To Canberra's fair city
away I must flee; where
the bronze Ethos statue
points up to the skies...
I will write to you darling,
have no tears in your eyes.
I'll return in December
kissing your hand.

Please take this Rosary,
it comes from my heart.
Sometime very soon,
prayer will play a part.
The beads which are sacred
count the hours as they go
and from now till December
you will haunt my dreams so,
because you are my only one
I thought you should know.

Wonders Never Cease

God is older than the land
Older than the sea and sand
Older than the moon and stars
And older than the planet Mars.

God was the first; He was there
Creator of all things everywhere,
Light was morning, dark was evening
His word determined every season.

God is older than the Lamb
Older than birds, older than man.
And ours is not to reason why
God reigns in glory beyond the sky.

Wonderful You

Beautiful love was ours for a lifetime
You held me in your arms and we danced.
I took one glance into your eyes
and my heart found a chapel of paradise
on a winding road for two...
'myself and wonderful you'.

Wonderful Paintings

Breathe a sigh, the scene is antique
Don't rush on by a scene so unique
Beautiful pictures abound.
Just look at the wonders I've found.
A glittering Admiral butterfly...
Must have been painted in heaven on high.
And look! The return of a crimson rose
Only weeks ago, in the Fall, she died.
And oh the ivy, golden and green,
Who designed such a glowing scene
Shining like the crown of a queen?
Ah! The Universe - colourful! glorious!
The Artist is adored by all of us.
God is the artist of all we survey
And how great His Original
'The Sunrise at Dawning of Day'.

Wonderful Dream

Take me in your arms dear and look into my eyes,
Tell me that you care...bring me your paradise.
Dance with me my love, until the morning light
For you and you alone, make this sad world seem right.

But our love is only a dream on a beautiful moonlit night
Never to become reality; a fantasy of love's delight.
So let the music play and think of me night and day
I'll hold you in my heart where you will always stay.

Within The Boundaries of Love

Forty words:

Stay in hours of darkness
Until morning light
Help me through our baby's birth
And I will be alright.
Life's great happening to cherish
Be it girl or boy...
Soon we'll hold a gentle child
God's precious gift of joy

Wisdom From By gone Days

In midst of the present recessional times
maybe Shakespeare's famous lines
'neither a borrower or a lender be'
could have saved the world much misery!
But without those overdrafts and loans
for motorcars and top-grade homes...
and spending our money to extreme,
there would be no midsummer dream.
Shakespeare meant no ill
for he is our treasure still.

With thanks to Robert Palmer

Forty words:

Falling in love with love,
My heart was aglow.
'Addicted to Love'
In a world long ago
When nightingales sang
And wedding bells rang.
Music played soft and low.
Romance is forever true.
And I am 'addicted' to
Loving you.

Wishful Thinking

Humour Intended:

It's all so personal
and me-o-myish,
It's all so beautiful
and ultra-stylish.
The FT and Dow
are telling us now...
Go! buy those gems
that once were denied us.
So, ignore the word 'crunch'.
for we only live on

Winter Sundays

There was magic in Sundays of long ago.
Life was sweet and the pace was slow.
No motor fumes or poisonous spray
Or shopping sprees to mar the day.

The Sabbath was a Holy time...
From the village church, bells would chime.
And children, with fair and shiny tresses
looked just like princes and princesses.

Vases of flowers in their full bloom
Adorned the casement of every room,
And our dining-table was always set
With seasonal food, I remember yet.

Joyfully, to the park we would go,
Prancing through the crisp white snow;
Then home we'd run, fast as could be
To sit by the cosy fireside for tea.

At eventide every voice would sing
Hymns of praise to our Heavenly King.
Then we would sleep and dream till dawn
To wake afresh to greet a new dawn.

Winston Churchill

'We shall fight on the beaches
We shall fight on the landing grounds
We shall fight in the fields
And in the streets.
We shall fight in the hills
But we shall never surrender.'

Churchill's speeches were so well defined
Possessing a slight touch of rhythm and rhyme.
The most apt description clould be free verse,
A style of their own ~ iniquely diverse.
How could a wartime speech be poetical
When made up of words so widely political?
But Winston loved poetry, a great writer was he;
Nobel Prize for literature, nineteen fifty three.
At Harrow School, when only fifteen, he wrote
'The Influenza' ~ published and masterly.
And one day as his daughter's dog lay whining
He wrote a few lines, to stop her from crying...

'Poor Puggy Wug'
Oh what is the matter
with poor Puggy Wug?
Pet him and kiss him
and give him a hug;
run and fetch him a
suitable drug.
Wrap him up tenderly
all in a rug ~ that is the
way to cure Puggy Wug.

AH! But what a great Orator
And War Leader
Winston Churchill became.

Winter of Regret

I sigh and I fret
and I'll never forget
the last moment
I spent at your side.
I miss you my dear
life has been drear,
and my soul pines
for you yet...

Cold and dark ~
heavy the heart,
the heart that once
fell apart in the
ice and the snow
of long long ago,
'twas the winter
I will never forget.

Winter Fairytale

I once heard a baby boy crying
out in the mid-morning snow,
and anxious was I to comfort him
for my sad heart pitied him so.

He laid in the arms of his mother,
a princess from a day long ago,
and as I wandered away all alone
I could feel my teardrops of woe.

Returning again, before noonday
the sun had melted the snow...and
baby and mother were smiling sweetly
with their pretty blue eyes aglow.

I greeted the mother warmly,
she was kind as a mother could be!
Just one look made me understand
and I was filled with humility.

Happily we talked together;
she welcomed me home, just we three.
That gentle mother of a treasured child
had cast a magical spell over me.

Wings To Fly

Forty words:

Silken wings fluttering by

~~Irresistible butterfly~~

Enjoy my garden, can't you see

I'll protect you; trust in me.

Your presence is a child's delight

Nature rejoices in your Admiral flight.

With artistry of coloured sheen...

God designed a beauty queen.

Wild West Legend

Jane Cannary-Burke 1852 - 1903.

Wild West Jane of Missouri fame,
was known by more than one name:
Jane Cannary, Martha Jane and
believe it or not ~ Calamity Jane.
How did this name come to be?
Just take it from me
'twas said jokingly
by a Captain Egan from history.
And I quote his little refrain...

'I name you Calamity Jane
the heroine of the plain'.
This phrase he repeated
over again:
'I name you Calamity Jane
the heroine of the plain'

Love is painful

It's me who dreams of your smile
And finds in your presence that life is worth while
This love inside of me is true
Everything I do I think of you
I cherish you within my soul
Its you that makes me whole

Our hearts have always bonded
And like a spark of light love always responded
You’ll never fully understand how special you are
On the darkest nights you're my only star

It’s you I see every night in my dreams'
You made me understand what love really means
God sent you from above
The angel for whom I do love
You’re apart of me yet so many miles away
My heart’s aching that’s all I have to say.

A True Friend

I found a friend, who knew everything I felt.
He understood my wonders, and listened to my dreams.
He listened to how I felt about life and love,
And knew exactly what it all means.
I wasn't looking for him
but some how he came, and found me.

It's like you my fire, a burning light.
Thou I haven’t met you and we far apart.
Just the thought of you enhances me
with a warmth felt in my heart.

Chatting to you is like being in the sun after the rain...
You shower this feeling of happiness over me,
No matter what mood I may be in.
Even if it takes forever to see
What happiness really means to me
I know the friendship we share will always be
in perfect harmony between you and me.

Grave Wounds of the Soul

Despair is your sword,
known only upon the wound of your enemy.
Blood is the friend you lust for.
Although with it, you are more lost,
so even your
sanity flees you.

Proof of Existence

I Love, I Hate,
but I feel so Empty.
My emotions are Empty.
I scream from the Pain,
but it’s already gone,
I cry because I’m sad,
but my Sadness is just Emptiness.
When I wake up,
I’m tired of feeling so little.
Emotions fleeting,
Emptiness eternal,
If I had a heart,
It’s long gone,
Torn to bits,
by these Empty hands.

The Calling

Can the light shine down from the heavens?
Could it sooth the pain of living in this dark place?
Is it only there to make us suffer?
Knowing that it's just out of reach?
Would it look down on us with pity?
Or sneer on in spite?
For what sins has it decided our fate?
Should it ever welcome this putrid soul in its gates?

Sunday, February 15, 2009

Sorrow

Could you explain sorrow?
How was it made?
Did God make it with rain?
How should it feel?
Why is it pain?
Could Death do its job
without the insane?
Did the stars shine darkly
before it was first conceived?
The notion that everything will come to end
It would seem,
The sum of all sorrow is knowing it was fated to be.

To Leave

I feel like I’m dying
holding so tightly
leaping off the edge
flying into the chasm
I feel like crying
pushing me away
letting go
only mistakes
I run slowly
waiting impatiently
hoping sadly
catch up quickly
I fall silently
dropping coldly
leaving without goodbye
before I say why

Monday, February 9, 2009

To Live on

Drain it raw
let the blood pool
the skin re-stitches
the veins close up
The wound aches
the scar awakens
the memory stays
the thoughts haunt
the mind reminisces
of the pain once sought

Shadow of Darkness

Falling endlessly
through sudden darkness.
Light was perished
before my eyes.
Life and meaning are forgotten
in this lightless tide.
Love was vanquished,
but not the memory.
Hope was destroyed,
and with it,
the light of the heart
was thrown into the shadows.

Twofold Words

What would you think if I showed you true despair?
Swallowed your dreams, took away your air.
Gripped your neck, tore your seems
Threw you away and left you to bled.

What would you say if I let you taste true love?
Flowing, rippling, undulating inside, seeping into the pours,
Temperature rises, begging for more,
A gnawing hunger never to cure.

Which would you chose?
Petty twofold words
Both fill you completely
And then leave you empty
Pitiless remorse.

SOME GOOD THINGS NEVER LAST

We must value what we have, no matter how small it is. We must cherish each moments of our lives coz we'll never know whether it will the last...

I happened to met a friend who is very dear to me, I was really strucked of what she shared to me. Upon hearing her story, I've learned a very important lesson in which most of take forgranted...MOMENTS!!!

It all started when she worked in a certain Korean School. She taught Korean kids ages 8-16 years old. At first she hated her work because it caused her too much stress. Everyday when she gets home, she always feel exhausted. After a few days of teaching she was planning to quit immediately. Until then, she met a student whom at first she never paid attention to. As days pass by, she can't help but notice that certain student. Until one day they accidentally bumped into each other in the lobby. The student was very polite, though he had difficulty speaking English he tried his hardest to apologize to the teacher. After that incident which happened to be the acquaintance they will never ever forget.
Several weeks after that incident a new class schedule for the student's were released. The teacher was so shocked upon knowing that Dave ( not the real name of the student) will be one of his student on 1:1 class. She is not really sure on how she would feel and for some reasons in which she didn't tell me.

I will just continue the story some other time to make it more exciting. Be sure to visit this site always. This is one hell of a story you should'nt miss.

Just One Tear

My mind cries out in agony,
but my eyes won’t shed a tear.
My heart cries, My soul cries,
But my eyes, they won’t.
Mentally and Physical hurt,
but my tears have deserted me,
I feel them behind my eyes,
sobbing for me,
but my pain stays with me,
praying for release.
Come tears,
and shed my pain.
release me from
my self-made prison.
Please, I beg of thee,
I Need to get past this,
to move on,
to forget.
But these unshed tears,
shall always remind me,
and hurt me,
and hinder
My Happiness.

Requiem for a Dream

Requiem for a dream
by sound so sweet
dreams of escape lay at its feet
by meaning so morbid
a solemn chant of repose
a dirge of feeling
a mass of death
for the dead unliving
to be laid down
in silent dreams
as hearts unbeating
shrivel and crumble
time sings
and beats on
forever

Inspiration from the song

Fragmentation

Truth be treason
in such empty lines
Full of hope blown up
The balloon popped
Splattered on the ground
Bled through straight
The cross-stitch fades
Entered the madness
Shaken with empathy
Sown up the chasm
Thread stretched taunt
Began upon the ending

Alone, Heart and Soul

All alone you are,
And all alone you’ll stay,
For you never let love come,
And never let it fly away.
Alone appears so empty,
And looks so devoid of meaning,
Nothing surrounds you heart,
And your life is waning.
Your heart is full of sadness,
And longing for something good,
But your heart stays closed,
And lets in nothing that could.
Maybe you’ll make your dreams come true,
And let happiness swell.
But you learn nothing from your mistakes,
And never learn how to quell,
the longing of your heart,
And the loneliness of your soul.

Falling Away

I find myself alone
the tears slide gently
down to the barren ground
my knees start to shake
I crumble
down to the barren ground
My nails dig into the earth
inflicting my pain unto it
down to the barren ground
blood wells inside
scars I dwell upon
down to the barren ground
heart flutters
throat dries
down to the barren ground
breath slows
lungs still
down to the barren ground
life stops
death starts
down to the barren ground.

Fading lights

Memories fading,
mind erasing,
losing grip on reality.
Trying to remember,
but more is slipping away.
Forgetting what is done,
and what was about to be.
Oh, Its agony,
feeling so helpless,
without any control.
Afraid that one day, I’ll wake up
not knowing who I am, or who you are.
Help, please,
I want to remember,
I need to remember,
for the sake of my sanity.

EXPRESS YOUR GRATITUDE

Express your gratitude
A thank you note sent via text, an inter-office email or a small slip of paper make your co-worker feel good about how he or she is doing in his or her job.

Don’t forget your standards

Don’t forget your standards
There are always moments when you might be tempted to let your standards slip. For instance, you can become too light-minded and say something you might regret later on. Be watchful!

Know each co-worker by name

Know each co-worker by name

Always share good news
During stressful times, create positive energy by sharing some good news around. This helps reinforce the good vibes your fellow employees have towards you.

Deception

Every morning I wake up tired
despite the sleep
Every night I put off sleep
despite the tiredness
The feeling is awful and empty
gnawing at my soul
hate is meaningless
a vague concept out of reach
love is the same
though I hope it won’t always be
sadness is all consuming
though dull and empty.
I hate feeling like this
but I don’t feel hate
I don’t feel at all.
