Remembering What the Mind Forgets

While having my break, i decided to sit at one of the benches of the park near the hospital (where i am working) with my soda crackers trying to catch a breath of fresh air. There i saw an old man with an old woman. From my view, i can see that he is patiently taking care of her, giving her food, asking what she needs and all. I decided to come closer, sit at the bench where i can observe them closely. the sight of long and lasting love makes me wonder if true love that can endure the challenges of time really exists. Coming close, hearing better, I realise that love knows no boundaries, and it is not something that can be tested through distance and time but rather a love that can last a lifetime.

I knew this is coming but still I cant help but cry

At the young age of 16, due to many questions, controversies and issues left unanswered even by his own church leaders, he left his religion and started the venture of searching his soul and savior. It might have been really a nature of humanity to seek for a God whom he can worship, in Jeff’s case, he did for many years.

what to do when God seems silent...

i was sorting some old stuff in my room, when i came across a folded 2 piece yellowish old bond paper, a photocopy of an article from signs of the times way back 2001. it was the same article na na-touched ako years ago, kayo pinaphotocopy ko. i knew there was something important with this that i kept it for a very long time... i read it again... and i cried.. and it seems like i am reading it for the first time again.

when waiting gets tough...

while browsing thru Facebook.. i stumbled upon this article, shared by 2 of my Facebook friends from theprayingwoman.com i clicked the link and started reading... next thing i know am already crying....

It is finished! Let us be united for a better Philippines

the moment i shaded my last vote, i said to my self, "Lord, your will be done". Politics always intrigues me. Always. I dunno why i took medicine instead of political science but every political issue, i always feel the need to be informed, to be educated, to be involved. As ordinary citizen, i know i should take part. I should learn more. In the past national and local elections i've been clearly taking my active part in voicing my opinion in writing and in social media. I was in highschool when the impeachment of President Erap was a hot issue. I was an editorial writer back then. The need to be involved in every political issue was there right from the very begining. But this 2016 elections was different. I rarely stated my opinion on social media, posted few about elections on my account, only discussed my opinion to a friend once and never again. I have doubts with all the presidential candidates, i secretly wished for Senator Escudero to run for presidency but t...

I was never alone, HE WALKED WITH ME

A test of FAITH Today marked the 2 nd day that I am not required to open and read these numerous books and handouts I can now only see afar. The time 1 wouldn’t be guilty if ever I will end up with longer hours of sleep (than what I am supposed to). Because for the 1 st time, I don’t have an idea of what am I going to do next. The very same day, I was having tremors as I opened the PRC website, having mixed emotions on what am I gonna see… WHERE IT ALL STARTED? Why I wanted to become a doctor.

Me and my hyperthymestic memory: I HATE IT!

Minsan, sabi nila, “You are blessed with the opportunity of not knowing it all”, sabi naman ng iba, “there’s nothing to be worried about, There is no fear, in not knowing”.   But that isn’t my case, I wish I can remember less, I wish I see less, hear few—I wish I haven’t seen them at all. But no! God has given me the gift of hyperthymism. Gift? Or a curse I am bound to live with for the rest of my life.

Walang Kabuluhan

“Walang kabuluhan ng walang kabuluhan sabi ng mangangaral, lahat ay walang kabuluhan” Meaning please???? Pagtatanungin mo ang tatay ko kung ano ang paborito niyang talata sa bibliya, sigurado ako at wala pang isang Segundo, ito ang isasagot niya. At bilang bata, isa lang ang reaksyon naming lahat sa tuwing sasabihin nya yan., ang tumawa ng tumawa…sa kakaisip na baka siya ay nagpapatawa lang. Sino ba naman ang seryosong tao ang magsasabi ng isang pangungusap na puro “walang kabuluhan” ang laman. Ang dami namang ibang laman ang bibliya, mga sikat pa! madalas mo pang makita sa kahit na saan. Sa libro, sa simula ng artikulo, minsan pati sa mga key chain at mga establishimento..bakit iyon pa?

The Cliff Isang lalaki, na nagngangalang Jack ay naglalakad sa mabangin na lugar ay hindi sinasadyang nahulog, at sa kanyang pagkahulog pababa buti na lamang ay nakakapit siya sa isang sangang nakausli. Ngunit alam niya na panandalian lamang ito. Pagtingin niya sa baba, ay gayun na lamang ang kanyang pagkalula ng makita nya kung gaano kataas ang kanyang kalagayan. Siya ay nakakapit sa isang sanga, libu-libong milya ang layo mula sa ibaba. Hindi namn siya maaaring habang buhay na nakakapit sa sangang iyon, wala rin naman siyang kakayahan na makaakyat pa. kaya’t ang kanyang naisip ay magsisigaw.. malakas na mga pagsigaw upang kung sakaling may makaraan doon, ay marinig siya at siya ay matulungan. Ilang oras din siyang nagsisigaw. Ngunit at the time when he was about to give up, he heard one voice.
