How old are you?

Kumusta? I have been thinking how to reconcile with reality my earnest dream to be a part of all the years of your life… Why didn’t our lives meet earlier? Besides height I ran short of years as well. I won’t mention the number of years that you are advanced baka kasi mapunit ang sulat na ito na hindi mo man lamang nababasa ng buo.My point here is not about your age although it’s one of those that I admire about you. My point here is—Where was I during the times when you wanted to share and celebrate life’s goodness? Or what was I busy with that I wasn’t able to give you even a slight comfort during the instances you felt that life was unfair? ‘di ko alam kung may mararating pa itong ginagawa ko pagkatapos kong magpahiwatig ng kawalang-katinuan at i-punto pa ang iyong edad… Absurd it may be. Absurd I admit. Because absurd it is on its own basis-- a poor prince falling in love with a beautiful princess. Hayan na naman ako showing some self-pity… pero sa tingin ko, mas tunay na wala sa katinuan ang lalaking di makakaramdam ng katulad ng dinadanas ko.I would really love to come back thru time and freeze-frame every important moment of your life and do every way I know to show I care for you.

The BIG Thing

Let’s talk about BIG things! The feature which is most obvoius with Cef are his BIG eyeswhich can see the BIG and tiny things a friend does… I’ll speak for myself and for my noise-partner G2... G1 and G2 have been this big-eyed gentleman’s constant burden for the past months (and will still be in the coming days). Our noise, annoyance and troubles have added weight to his works and personal burdens. We knew it so well that oftentimes we caused him to blow his top… and consequently almost blew up our faces… he he he he! His BIG voice Now that is real speech power! “The word of the word” “Iz et? …are just two of the signatures of this young Dan Rather. Really… it’s like watching “CBS main news” live right in front of you every time you hear him speak… But, to G1 & G2 it’s more than the modulation and volume of his voice—it’s about giving his best in everything he does… Besides, that BIG voice is the very same voice that speaks for us to advocate our welfare.

My Mom and Best Friend

Behind every man’s success is a woman… before that same man is also that same woman who shields the man from imminent adversaries. That man is the child and that woman is the mother who steps in advance to guard against the looming danger and then sits down behind him to become one of the audiences to applaud. The woman; the mother. The man; the child. I want to be the husband and father that my wife and children will be proud of. I want to be the best husband to my wife-to-be and; be the best dad to my children-to-be. It's a tough goal but I gear to be the perfect contrast of my father. When I was very young I described a family as comprised by lola, tito, tita, pinsan, ate and nanay. But when I began to attend to school and as I memorized to sing and recite nursery rhymes about family I discovered a slight difference from what I used to believe about. I was confused. But I did not mind. "Who is your father?"-- I finished my grade one as first in the honor l

Thank you

Did I say I shall thank you?  For the longest time I have never been set into my good old writing mood. Thank you. …because you have stirred up my inert passion to write. I've found myself wanting to breathe life to words and phrases again. Work has been so frustrating but not so much when your face is in my mind. Thank you …because you inspire me despite the hassles at work. In my first few months I struggled with homesickness.  Thank you …because you taught me that being happy isn’t far-fetched. During the times when I thought I was staring at nothing. Thank you …because daydreaming is now a beautiful thing to do. Thank you very much.
