gem

Ever since my younger years, until now, You have always been endearing in so many ways, fromthose moments that you took me for a ride in your old rotten bike, and those times that you always bothered to give me my packed lunch to school before going to work and those wee hours of the night that you never fail to check on us before sleeping , all those little worries, I know it so well because its imprinted in my heart, those caring ways and thoughtful cuddly moments that you have always shown, You always make me feel that I'm never alone.

Among my siblings You are always regarded as the tough decision maker, without you, life sucks for me, with your god fearing ways and really really strong faith (stronger than mine) life has been so full of blessings, sometimes I envy you for that faith I have to work more harder for mine as well.

Small but terrible, thats what you are to me, You have been tagged Thumbelina when you were a child, and now I realized that You really are a thumbelina, fearless and flying, Gods must have been working hard when you were born, because your zodiac tells it all, no doubt about it, and without you i can never fly, ...in my life you connect me to the worlds of fun and excitement.

You are my fairy flying fearless Thumbelina.

I never expected that You will be good in your craft, considering that I was always more interested in our chosen field than you are ( and i never thought u would make it to the professional boards hahaha) Now look at you, still the happy go lucky guy that I know, yet more skilled than I am, and perhaps the most sought after, I'm never going to worry if i get sick.

Your thoughtfulness always put you in the hearts of those around you, what more for us who loves you dearly, your kindness and caring thoughts for those in need is exceptional...always the good samaritan. You taught us well and I know that the good things and good deeds you have planted in us will also be passed on to our children and your great grandchildren.

For the past crucial decade of my life, i know you are there, its you who make me smile, and laugh and cry my tears out. if there will ever be an ending to what we have i'm fervently praying that its for a lifetime of happiness, because you are forever imprinted in my heart as I am to you, i love you so much and i always will.

When I'm on the other side of this world my family can always figure out who is who. I love them so much they are my treasures in life.

pintada

Its been ten years that I had this skin condition, how time passes by so quickly…. I don’t know. I’ve written a few lines about this before, (check ME out) if you want to backread. Three years ago, I was struggling real hard and deeply, deeply so down having this ailment, but having it, brings me to a road where empowerment is a daily task to be practiced. Aside from the fact that my vitiligo is healing itself, its been a year that I haven’t noticed any new pigmentation on my body. There was a time that I wake up in the morning and suddenly I would be asking myself if I had this white spot before I slept last night …I don’t know, but it just appeared from out of nowhere. I have white pigmentation around my eyes ( which is now healed, I used to put on layers of make-up everytime I go out) on both hands, on my elbows, on both legs and imagine where else that can be covered. Medical treatments are still undergoing research, special treatments like PUVA and cortisones are so far the latest I know about the treatment for vitiligo. I’ve consulted doctors, dermatologists experts and friends, and I’ve also read articles MICHAEL JACKSON ‘s case(yes, they say he has it too) and testimonies of people like me, and same thing has been said. There is also the story of LEE THOMAS a news anchor from MICHIGAN (which reminds me that I haven’t checked his site and blog for updates). He is coping very well too and a very remarkable man who inspires people with vitiligo. For me, I let my body cure itself, Natural healing and cell regeneration is whats taking control of my vitiligo. I was different three years ago as compared today, body and soul doing wonders. For people who are not informed about this skin condition, they usually take second glances and most of the time ask if its contagious. Im used to it and sometimes I can feel the fear coming out of them “thinking they might get it too”

Life is good I’m pretty as can be...

si MM_ at si AV_

Minsan ang buhay matalinhaga, may mga bagay bagay na mahirap ipaliwanag at intindihin, malalaman lang natin ang kahulugan at saysay pag tayo mismo ang nakaranas nito. Kung may mga istorya na dapat ibahagi, siguro isa itong kwento ni MM_em-em at ni AV_eyy-vee

Si AV_ (eyy-vee) ay isang matalik na kaibigan at si MM_em-em ang kanyang ka textmate. Anim na taon na sila mag katxt, pero di pa sila nagkikita kahit minsan, O di ba? Kaya nyo ba yun?, Anim na taon na din silang away bati, at magkasintahan...Kung iisipin natin, mapapatanong tayo pwede nga ba yun? Oo meron yun, eto na nga at kine- kwento ko eh, nagpa-alam pa ako kay AV_eyy-vee bago ko i-share ito dito sa aking nuk ang kanilang kwento, hindi naman sya nag-dalawang isip na sumang-ayon, sabi nya baka ito daw maging daan para makita na nya si MM_em-em. Madalas sinasabi sa kin ni AV_ eyy-vee napaka tanga daw nya para umasa ng ganito katagal at mag hope na magkikita sila, nangako daw si MM_ em-em na susunduin nya si AV_ eyy-vee sa takdang panahon...Natatakot si eyy-vee kasi baka isa palang masamang tao si MM_ em-em pero naman sa anim na taon na yun hindi pa naman nalagay sa alanganin ang buhay ni AV_eyy-vee.Walang nakaka-alam sa pamilya ni AV_eyy-vee tungkol sa kalbaryo nya ,maliban sa akin na pinagsasabihan nya. Madaming beses na din ipinagdarasal ni eyy-vee ang suliranin nyang ito, at sinasabi sa akin na pakiramdam nya palagi andyan si Lord na gumagawa ng way para magkabati sila sa tuwing nag aaway...sa pag-usad ng blog na ito samahan nyo ako sa kwento ni MM_ em-em at ni AV_eyy-vee.

U-TURN

This blog suffered an unexpected gap for quite sometime, as the blogosphere world may call it "on hiatus".

All because of expected reasons and alibis:

time challenge, being my foremost difficulty,

on & off DSL connection,

too much hiding,

heart affairs,

family, blah blah blah

I could go endless. I've been missing a lot though, especially bloghopping,

so much has to be learned ( how's & why's in blogging)

and so much to be discovered (bloggers old & new).

For those who are just starting to blog, its damn real hard to backread posts,

what more for those who aint know nothin' bout it,

but for someone who appreciates ones' work

and knows a good material which is worth reading

well, it aint matter to click backwards,...right guys?

I'm doing a lot of U-turns lately, and its quite fun,

you get to meet pro -bloggers and instant friends as well.

and I still have to do a lot of smoothing here in my nook (nuk),

hoping to meet bloggers whose page is often visited

and viewed every second of everyday.

(wish I could be part of their blogrolls hahaha..... "taray")
