REACHING FOR THE MOON IN DAYLIGHT


REACHING FOR THE MOON IN DAYLIGHT

Yes, why not?

While we are young or younger
Strive the best to reach for goals
Meeting goals can be a fulfilling experience
That would keep us from falling or losing balance.

Maintaining an equilibrium
Be cautious that we do maintain a good position
Making choices must be planned or programmed
Stay away from any harm.

Inflicting pain and evil on ourselves
When we fall down from disgust and frustration
Not a good thing to punish ourselves
Stand up and rise again instead!!

TURNING BACK


TURNING BACK


LIFE IS A SERIES OF UPS AND DOWNS. DURING THESE TIMES, A PERSON GOES THROUGH A TURNING BACK. TURNING BACK IS A PROCESS. ONE HAS TO GO THROUGH THIS PROCESS FOR THE PURPOSE OF RE-EVALUATING ONESELF. ANOTHER WAY TO SAY THIS IS SOUL-SEARCHING. WHAT ARE THE GOOD THINGS HE MAY HAVE IN HIS PERSONALITY, AND/OR WHAT ARE THE BAD THINGS HE MAY HAVE? IN ONE'S LIFE, ADDING AND/OR SUBTRACTING ARE MUSTS. NO WAY THAT ONE CAN LIVE A WHOLE LIFE IF HE DOES NOT ENGAGE IN THESE PROCESSES. MULTIPLICATION AND DIVISION ARE IMPORTANT ALSO. LIFE IS A CONTINUOUS PROCESS. IT IS A JOURNEY. AS ONE TRAVELS IN THIS WORLD, HE OR SHE GOES THROUGH A DIVERSITY OF ROADS. HE OR SHE THEN TRIES TO ADAPT OR ADOPT TO THAT PARTICULAR SITUATION. LIFE IS ADJUSTMENT. IT IS ADAPTATION. IT IS CHANGE, CHANGE FOR THE BETTER, NEVER A CHANGE FOR THE WORSE. IT IS ALWAYS FOR THE BEST INTEREST OF HIMSELF OR HERSELF AND THE PEOPLE HE OR SHE LOVES AROUND HIM OR HER. IT IS BUT BASIC THAT A PERSON SHOULD DO THE BEST SHE OR HE CAN DO TO LIVE A LIFE FULL OF PEACE AND QUIET, HAPPINESS AND SUCCESS FOR HIS OR HER BENEFIT. IF ONLY PEOPLE THINK AND BELIEVE THIS WAY, LIFE IS A MUCH BETTER DEAL FOR EVERYONE.

DO YOU WANT TO TRY? GOOD LUCK AND MAY GOD'S BLESSINGS BE WITH YOU!

July 9, 2008 - TURNABOUT -

TURNABOUT

Togetherness undone
Repercussions never away
Belief overly-misunderstood
Until today, a TURNABOUT !

Turnabout so difficult
Bringing pain, sorrow, and shout
Two hearts, two souls, two bodies in love
Aftermath is TURNABOUT!

Turnabout, go, go about turn
About turn, go and turnabout!
Go back, go forward
Move on and turnabout!

July 4, 2008


The 4th of July is a very significant day not only for the Americans but for the Filipinos as well. July 4, 1946 was the day when America granted the Philippines its' nation's Independence. Fifty years later, the Philippine government amended that provision of the Constitution and made it the "Fil-American Day". The country's lawmakers reviewed history and decided to go back to the original date of Independence of the country, independence from the Spaniards, which was dated June 12, 1896.

The Philippines was colonized in 1521 after a Portuguese navigator, Ferdinand Magellan discovered our country, Since that day on, the Spaniards became an integral part of history. The country was under the Spanish colonization for 400 years. It was in 1898, when the USA liberated us through the "Treaty of Paris". The US government offered the Spanish government the amount of $20,000,000.00 in US Dollars for Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines. As of today, Guam and Puerto Rico remain colonies, however, the Philippines has remained a close ally.

Today, we celebrate together! HAPPY BIRTHDAY,UNCLE SAM! THANK YOU FOR JULY 4, 1946! You gave the Philippines its' independence!

Today, I celebrate Independence right here at the heart of Las Vegas, NV. This is my place of residence and employment. I work in this city as a schoolteacher. My turn has come to make a difference in the lives of the school children I teach in this great country. MABUHAY!
