Death is certain but the Bible speaks about  untimely death! 

Make a personal reflection about this……

Very interesting, read until the  end…..

 It is written in the Bible (Galatians 6:7):

 "Be not deceived; God is not mocked:

 for whatsoever a man soweth,  

 that shall he also reap."

Here are some men and women who mocked God:

John Lennon  (Singer):

 Some years before, during his interview with an American Magazine, he said:  

…"Christianity will end, it will disappear. I do not have to argue about that. I am certain.

Jesus was ok, but his subjects were too simple,   Today we are more famous than Him" (1966).

Lennon, after saying that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, was shot six times.

Tancredo Neves  (President of Brazil):  

During the Presidential campaign, he said if he got 500,000 votes from his party, not even God would remove him from Presidency.

Sure he got the votes, but he got sick a day before being made President, then he died.

 Cazuza  (Bi-sexual Brazilian composer, singer and poet):

 During A show in Canecio (Rio de Janeiro), 

 …while smoking his cigarette, he puffed out some   smoke into the air and said: "God, that's for you."

 He died at the age of 32 of AIDS in a horrible manner.

The man who built the Titanic

 After the construction of Titanic, a reporter asked   him how safe the 

Titanic would be.

  …With an ironic tone he said:  "Not even God can sink it"

The  result:   I think you all know what happened to the Titanic.

Marilyn Monroe  (Actress)

She was visited by Billy Graham during a  presentation of a show.  

He said the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to her.  

After hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said:  

"I don't need your Jesus".

A week later, she was found dead in her apartment. 

Bon Scott  (Singer)      

The ex-vocalist of the AC/DC. On one of his 1979 songs he sang:  

"Don't stop me, I'm going down all the way, down   the highway to hell".

On the 19th of  February 1980, Bon Scott was   found dead, he had been choked

by his own vomit.

Campinas  (IN 2005)

 In Campinas, Brazil a group of friends, drunk,  went to pick up a friend…..

 The mother accompanied her to the car and was  so worried about the drunkenness of       her friends and she said to the daughter holding her hand,

who was already seated in the car:

"My Daughter, Go With God And

 May He Protect You…"

She responded: "Only If He (God) Travels   In The Trunk, Cause Inside Here…..   It's Already Full"

Hours later, news came by that they had been  involved in a fatal accident,

everyone had died, the car could not be recognized what type of car it had  been, but surprisingly, the trunk   was intact.

The police said there was no way the trunk could  have remained intact. To their surprise, inside the trunk was a crate of  eggs, none were broken.

Christine Hewitt (Jamaican Journalist and entertainer)

Said the Bible (Word of God) was the worst book   ever written.

In June 2006 she was found burnt beyond  recognition in her motor vehicle.

Many more important people have forgotten that  there is no other name that was given so  much authority as the name of Jesus.

Many have died, but only Jesus died and rose  again, and he is still alive.

                "Jesus"  

P.S: If it was a joke, you would have sent it to everyone.  

So are you going to have courage to send this?.

I have done my part, Jesus said 

"If you are embarrassed about me,

I will also be embarrassed about you  before my Father."

nang lumigaya

And yes, I was late yesterday. But in God's grace, my professor in Electromagnetics is not yet around.

Non sense. 

Enough on that.

This post is really about the buzz that keeps on  annoying my free spirit while Im on the bus this morning. I Hope that you can get something out of this selection.

 MINIMITHI
(DESIDERATA)
Salin ni Pete Lacaba

Lumakad nang mahinahon
Sa gitna ng ingay at pagkukumahog, at alalahanin
Ang kapayapaang maaaring makuha sa katahimikan.

Walang isinusuko hanggat maaari,
Pakitunguhan nang mabuti ang lahat ng tao.

Sabihin ang iyong katotohanan nang tahimik at malinaw;
At makinig sa iba, kahit sa nakayayamot at mangmang;
Sila man ay may kasaysayan.

Iwasan ang mga taong mabunganga at palaaway,
Sila'y ikinaiinis ng kalooban.

Kung ihahambing mo ang sarili sa iba,
Baka yumabang ka o maghinanakit; sapagkat laging
May lilitaw na mas mahusay o mas mahina sa iyo.

Ikalugod ang iyong mga tagumpay at saka mga balak.

Manatiling interesado sa iyong hanapbuhay,
Gaano man kaaba; ito'y tunay na ari-arian
Sa pabago-bagong kapalaran ng panahon.

Maging maingat sa iyong negosyo;
Sapagkat ang daigdig ay puno ng panlilinlang.
Subalit huwag maging bulag sa kabutihang makikita.
Maraming nagsisikap na makamit ang mga adhikain;
at sa lahat ng dako,
Ang buhay ay puno ng kabayanihan.

Maging tapat sa sarili. Higit sa lahat, huwag magkunwari.
Huwag ding libakin ang pag-ibig:
Sapagkat sa harap ng lahat ng kahungkagan at kawalang-pag-asa,
Ito'y lagi't laging sumisibol, tulad ng damo.

Tanggapin nang mabuti ang mga payo ng katandaan,
Buong-giliw na isuko ang mga bagay-bagay ng kabataan.

Pag-ibayuhin ang lakas ng loob,
Ito'y pananggalang laban sa biglaang kasawian.
Subalit huwag ikaligalig ang mga haka-haka.

Maraming pangamba ang likha ng pagod at pangungulila.

Bagamat kailangan ang sapat na disiplina,
Maging magiliw sa sarili.

Ikaw ay supling ng sanlibutan.
Katulad ng bituin,
May liwanag kang taglay.
At anupaman ang iyong gawin,
Itong sanlibutan ay narito
Sa paligid mo.

Kung gayon, pakisamahan ang Panginoon,
Anuman ang pananaw mo sa kanya.
At anuman ang iyong pinagkakaabalahan at minimithi,
Sa maingay na kalituhan ng buhay,
Pakisamahan ang iyong kaluluwa.

Sa kabila ng lahat ng pagkukunwari, kabagutan,
at gumuhong pangarap,
Maganda pa rin ang daigdig.

Mag-ingat. Sikaping lumigaya.

Ito'y alay ko sa mga kaluluwang tinitigang ng malamlam na init ng araw. 

Ikaw, Ako Magkakapatid

Meteors hark Backing my Cerebrum

When GMA Network told the whole Nation that they are going to re live the spirit of the so called “The Firstborn of the Philippine Asianovelas”, my mind traveled across the hour glass of my life. It sets my whole being again into a country bombarded by the F4 Fever, and the Meteor Garden Attack.

 

I grabbed this Video that truly reminds me of the Meteor garden and F4 Phenomena that really rocks our MunSci Life. We dedicate this to Binibing Calado for inspiring us, molding as, and sharing her Jerry Yan true to life Love story. Thanks Shinji for making this unscrupulous Video. =)

That time, as I remember I was a junior student in our beloved school by the bay. Yeah right, and on those times, the community and even the whole country always dragged their feet to come home as early as five thirty in the afternoon just to view their favorite Asianovela. Seemingly, the whole country’s clock always stops when the hands of the clock in Manila City hall reaches the most waited moment of every Filipino.

One thing that I also remember is the moment when my friends and I had this summer outing in Morong, Bataan. All things were moving and doing well. The weather, the temperature and the beach were fine. The people, having their summer escapades from Manila, were enjoying the sun’s blessing in the months of summer. When the sun is now finding its way to take a rest and the mystical sunset was embraced from the horizon to the shore, I was surprised when I found out that I was the only being taking the pleasure of the beach. And when I looked on the mini hotel lobby facing the beach, every one was so deliberately watching their favorite Meteor Garden. No one was caught blinking while watching the drama on the television. The beach goers, the staffs from kitchen up to the administrators of the resort and the people that come out from no where, everyone was relatively hooked on the show. The merriment was stopped, but not totally bunged; it is now stirred on the kissing scene between Dao Ming Zi and San Cai.

I know that my teachers in my High School Alma Mater were great educators. I learned their lessons not because I want to but because we all want to because of their fancy teaching techniques, ideas and concepts.

But one thing that I cannot forget on them is the time that they are really addicted to Meteor Garden, not only to the story but it extends to the personal being of the characters.

One of my instructors, whom I adore most *because of her passion to her profession, nothing more* was deeply hooked to the society’s apple of the eye on that time. She has a huge wallpaper of Dao on her cubicle room, a mug personalized with Dao’s name painted on it, and a lot of Dao’s photos, carefully framed and displayed so heartedly.

Our class in World history, with her, usually ends with the meteor garden dialogues. Even the topics from great Athens, the Mesopotamia, the middle ages, the Mesoamericans, the Glory of Rome, the Lutherans, the Hundred years war in France, and until the modern World, all ended with Dao Min Zi and her admirations to Him.

But do not think that It ruins our class , instead, it totally helped us to make her subject more enjoyable, and helped us to comprehend on the topics easily. The reason is that, we feel the subject more enjoyable when there is no cloud of pressure that is above us. We learned a lot from the subject, *try me.haha* and also we enjoyed the life she shared on us, including her life as a Dao Ming Zi fans Club Philippine Chapter member haha, her first handshake with Dao and the moment she was totally in loved with Dao when she was embraced by Jerry Yan during his Bench Model Search here in the Philippines.

And that story is too long to be placed on this post. Just ask her na lang, and she will tell the whole story completely as if you are watching the scene right in front of you. After doing so, once she tell you that it is her birthday today, think twice. Haha peace ma’am.

She influenced most of the class, and even the whole faculty including the Principal *laughs*. Oh how I miss those days.

These things really bounced back to my mind whenever I see GMA’s teaser on Meteor Garden. I will treasure those moments. And as the Meteor Garden relives the spirit of the story, the happiness it brings to Filipino’s hearts will still smear on the history of anyone’s reminiscence.

Merror + Fud + EB = Layf

Hindi na siguro makukumpleto ang tanghalian ng isang Pilipino, kung di siya nakakapanood ng isang variety show.  Sa Pilipinas lamang tumatagal ang isang variety show na halos bumibilang pa ng 25 pataas na taon sa ere. 

Masarap nga namang kumain na habang nabubusog ka na, ay pansamantala ka pang nakalilimot sa iyong mga problema dulot ng isang programang nakadudulot ng isang masarap na ngiti sa iyong mga labi.

Minsan, napatigil ako sa isang carinderya, natural may mga ulam, may kanin, at may telebisyon. Pero nagtanung ako sa sarili ko nang may makita akong isang salamin sa loob. 

may barberya din ba sa loob?

Ewan

E bat may malaking salamin?

Para siguro makita kung gaano kalaki ang subo 

**tawanan

Siguro nga  

Pero bat ganyan kalaki? Parang pang parlor.

E siguro ay may sideline yung karinderya sa tanghali, sa gabi, parlor. ganun lang. Simple lang diba?

Huh? weird.

Nagtataka lang ako dahil sa halos lahat ng karinderya na naraanan namin ay may mga malalaking salamin sa loob.

Nagnilay. Ngumiti.

Siguro nga, kailangan ang salamin. Dahil ang Buhay ay isang variety show.

Sa Variety show, masaya ang buhay. parang walang lugar ang pagmumukmok. Parang buhay mo. parang buhay ko. Na sa Araw araw ay kailangan mong isuot ang ID mo, este ang isang masayang ngiti. Dapat daw nakangiti palagi, para swertehin sa buhay, para manalo sa LAban o Bawi o sa On the Spot Jackpot. 

Sa Variety Show, hindi mo alam kung ano ang ilalabas ng mga roleta. di mo alam kung anung swerte o kamalasan ang ilalabas ng mga araw mo. Minsan maganda, pero sa isang mahirap, swerte na kung may matanggap kang limang daang piso pauwe.

Sa Variety Show, walang puwang ang antok. Dahil kapag inantok ka sa buhay, wala kang mapapala. kahit mga kangkong sa sapa e di ka uubra. bawal maging tamad, bawal antukin.

Sa Variety Show, maraming tanung na dapat sagutin para manalo, para magkaroon ng direksyon ang buhay mo kailangan mong sumagot sa mga tanong na magdidikta ng paroroonan mo. kung tataktak ka ba o tatakbo.

Sa Variety Show, may baon ka dapat na talino, kung hinde baka english lang ng yungib ay di mo pa alam. kahit kapirasong talino dapat mayroon ka, dahil baka di mo na namalayan na laslas na pala ang bag mo, wala ka na ngang cellphone, wala ka nang pera.. kumalat pa sa kalsada ang make up kit at mga gamit na laman ng bag mo.

Sa Variety Show dapat may sponsor ka ren. kailangang magpatalastas. mambola ng manonood. kailangang ita tak sa isip ng nakasalubong mo na ang sabong A ay mas magaling kaysa kay sabong B.

kailangang bolahin ang tao na ang pananaw ko ay tama at mali naman ang sa iyo dahil ang pananaw mo ay mali.

Na kailangang araw araw ay mapaniwala mo na ikaw si superman at kaya mong baliktarin ang ikot ng elektric fan.

Sa Variety show, meron ding drama. gaya ng buhay mong puno ng kadramahan. Na pwede nang ipantay sa dramathon sa Hapon.

Sa Variety Show ang tangi mo lamang anting anting ay ang lakas ng loob at gabay ng Poong Maykapal upang manalo at mag uwi ng limpak limpak na papremyo at salapi. Isang supot at isang sakong Lakas ng Loob at Siyempre ang walang kapantay na paggabay ng MAykapal upang mapagtagumpayan mo ang malalaking hamon ng Variety Show ng iyong Buhay.

Nalaman ko na kung bakit may salamin, kung bakit may telebisyon, may kanin at ulam, at isang variety Show.

Na sa tuwing isusubo mo ang pagkain na buhay ng iyong katawan ay malalaman mong Aba! Variety Show ang palabas sa Salamin.

tuldok.

Dapat kasi talaga nag Filipino Major ka e.

ayoko nga nun, walang pera. pwede ba tigilan nyu na ako.

Sayang, e di sana katulad mo na ako ngayun, after several years.

kalilimutan ko ng gusto kong magturo

Ba't di mo subukang magpasa sa Panday Lipi

huh? anu yun

wala ba nun sa PUP?

medyu narinig ko na nga pero, hay.. di kaya ako magaling..

subukan mo lang malay mo, matanggap ka..

Hmm.. utang na loob!
