IRONY

This picture was originally shared by Amazing places to see.  Looking at this picture, I realized one thing, life is for everyone to see. It may be your show today, but tomorrow who knows?. Isn't it ironic that the ones should be in behind bars are the big cats?  it looks like thunder cats are ready for their meals.(lol!)

When I was a kid, my parents would bring us to wild life amusement park to  have a glimpsed of animals we only see in books and in television. And whenever we do that, our parents re iterate us of the character of each animals we pass by. It was educational and at the same time entertaining.

 We where taught that forest,is their life. Just like us human, Animals has their own territory as well. Its where they are familiar and safe. And that's explained why those animals we saw in the amusement parks where locked in grills to prevent them from behaving wildly(which are normal in their nature). Same thing, if we visit the territory of  the wilds, we are to prepare ourselves so we may not be eaten out by the wolves. 


GOOD FOOD GOOD LIFE

I used to rants about the commercial being introduced to the public by some product advertisers due to exaggerated statement they make to catch their target market attention. And since advertisement that looks pleasing and enticing to the eye of the consumer , the product is sold with the help of creative people behind the increase of demands.

On the other hand, if there are ads that mislead the mass, there are also some ads that are true to what their claiming their service, item, product has. And giving awareness to the public of such important information makes a big difference that leads to living a healthy lifestyle.Campaigns that promotes the use of recyclable material and eradicate the use of non biodegradable stuff. Take for example this Organic Fruit Baskets that I chance to view on the net.

SMILE'S ENCOURAGEMENT

Once there was a man according to an old tale who was so filled with despondency that he decided to commit suicide. He started on his long walk across the city toward the bridge which was to be his jumping-off place. But he promised himself that if he met one smiling, happy, friendly-looking person on the way, he would turn back from his bitter errand.

Oddly, the story ends without answering the question whether or not the mission ended with suicide. The tale , however, poses a question, one of those haunting personal questions which pop into the mind now and then. If that man had met you, would he have turned back and taken up his life with a measure of courage?

LIVING SIMPLE AND HAPPY

Mother of my housemate is staying in the house for half a month, I was told of the reason why their mother visits them. The sister of my housemate needs support, I heard the nanny went away so mother comes over.First, I was glad she liked our place and she is comfortable, though shes not used to stay in the metro but she seems to enjoy he stay with us. She was telling me about their way of living in the province, she said the water in the province is free, food is fresh and cheap and healthy too,they have water pump for their rice field for the irrigation and everyone is helping each other. She was so proud of their village that everything is simple. Electricity is not yet centralized but they can live with it. One day when I retired from work, I will also enjoy that simplicity of life. 

CARING AND SUPPORTING

Reminiscing the days of my being teenager I could say there are things that I would love to cherish and things that I would definitely would want to turn back. I have friends, lots of friends because it was the time that I learned to socialize and mingle with different sets of people and common teens that has different up bringing. I have seen the good and bad side of having the freedom and being away from home. The advantages if your parents is not that strict and would always give you whatever you ask for. On the other hand, I have also seen the good side of those teenager that are not fortunate to have that golden platter in their table, yet they manage to overcome hindrances to achieve their goals because of their discipline. 

I have also seen some teenager whom have drown themselves to pleasure and prohibited drugs that have enjoy for awhile the feeling that they are getting from those chemicals. This are the teens that needs much of our caring and support, they are the one that needs Treatment Help. Even now, cases of  drug abuse are everywhere and the victims are the teenager. If we would like this numbers to drop into zero we must act now, let us save the next generation, let us not deny to ourselves and be  reluctant to take our teens in teen drug rehab admissions, to correct their behavior and start a detoxify new way of living.We can make a difference and we could save  thousands of teens  future. Educating them about about Teen Treatment Programs could  lessen teen rehabs and incident of abuse in drugs. 

Knowledgeable Life

We can't stop the clock for us not to get old.Life is so short for us they say. So, it made me think  about future life when I get old. How will I  look like? What id I get old alone no partner to share with, no child to call my own who will take care of me? So many questions coming into my mind right now. My loved ones, friends and people around me talks about security and abundance when they get old. Older people common  suggestions  with the young one is to invest in business, health plans like  Medicare part D plans so when we need assistance in our health problems we have something to look forward. While we enjoy the fruit of our labor from the business we put up, our health is secured as well. In times like this we should be wise in making decision.

JUKE BOX SELECT

Who says Filipino's are poor, and life here is difficult?  I beg to disagree on this notion, why? because I had here in the neighborhood who loves to party almost every weekend. I can always witness their partying, viewing them inside my window. To think that their means of living cannot be categorized as well and off, they would always  celebrate the birthdays of their siblings , again almost every week. I am not exaggerating things, It is my experienced here from the first year of my stay  up to my third year in this apartment now. My neighbor loves to sing, I guess owner of those videoke machines  in our area is making  riches out of that business because the neighbors are a grand patronizer, music lovers. forgive the rhythm , the voice quality and the volume of their music box. Instead of complaining for the volume and the types of music played, I am just holding on to the good side. Like,  I am able to save my electricity because my television is off . Anyway it  would be useless for me to open the television because the other compounds music box is serenading the whole street. You would thought it is a  thanksgiving party of the Barangay official here who won the electoral race.  What can I do, with these trips of my my wonderful neighborhood, Anyone here can give me inputs / advices on how to address the Sunday concert I am always privilege to hear, whether I like it or not. 

MY BIRTHDAY ENTRY

I want to take this opportunity to thank God once again for making me alive and well. Not that rich, not that poor but still surviving and have enough to sustain my daily way of living. Yesterday was a day for me to remember my day of birth. And my heart is feel with gladness and joy for the blessing I am continuously receiving. Good health, A loving family , A friends with different characters that I am blessed to blend with their unique personality that I can used in molding my inner Me. 

I know it's not always good in life, most of the time it's hard to some people out there, while I am having a good sleep, a family and a friend were I could turn to in case of frailty. Just to share here the burden I have one day before my birthday. My bf and I were eating in a near 24 hour pares house when suddenly a group of less fortunate kids approached the open area of the food house. Of course most of the people eating there were pissed off, including my bf. Because a kid keeps on asking him for a penny. My bf lectured the kid telling them that it is not proper to approached a person if they need to asked help. He even told them to wait until we finished our dinner. While we continue eating I told him, my heart is breaking for those kids and I even asked him to give them money to eat. But instead, He asked the waitress to give the kids food, the waitress was hesitant to do the request but prepared it as she was no choice and besides, we will pay the bill. After handing the food with the kids, I honestly saw the glow on the kid's eye who accept the food from the waitress. After they get the food, they encircled themselves in one corner, and one of the kid approached my bf and say "Salamat Po Kuya sa Pagkain" Oh God, my heart bleeds. I wish I could give them more. My bf was happy to hear the kid recognizing his act of kindness. I told my bf that not all kids that we saw in the street are headaches, and there are still many of them in the streets that are good and because they are starving, instead of playing they go out and look for food in ways that they think they can easily survived.
