Meditation

I have read a lot of books both inspirational and on stress management and they are telling how important meditation is to us and on our body . Meditation relaxes us and during this peaceful state we get to honor the body that God gave us to house our soul. The body and the soul , if not connected could make us sick , as in really sick at times .

So the body and the soul must work closely together if we want to be healthy and wise. Find that time to spend with yourself and relax your mind from the daily stresses of our life . Meditating is highly energizing and cool. There are even workshops offered nowadays conducting meditation exercise to help us alleviate the stress level in our life .

Let's listen to out body and soul so we can face everyday with joy and peace.

Have  great day today.   

At Zelig's baptism

This happened last September 22, 2019 , which was also Ronnie's birthday. So happy to see family members together in such a happy event . Siblings which you have not seen for years because of so many business to attend to in life . People you have meet for the first time as principal sponsors for Zelig's baptism.

Alonzo was there , coming all the way from Isabela , because his parents were one of the principal sponsors . I was one of the principal sponsors too. It was a happy day to see relatives even for just a short time but it was filled with memories to celebrate family life .

Daniel , my son , came in with his wife, Erica ,our new member in Team Santos . Family gives you such huge energy to give you hope, joy and happiness.

Family is life . 

First Family Dinner 2020

Family is life . We had our first family dinner for 2020 at Number 1 Barbecue located at the 3rd Flr of SM North Edsa. A lot of people were enjoying their Saturday dinner with friends and family members. There was a long line even at the entrance of the store .

The food may not be the best or the service but being with your family make it the best experience to start the year. Have time with your family . Spend quality and quantity time with them . Enjoy your day and activities together.

The gifts are an addition but being together is what is best in our everyday . We surely miss Cathy and Tin who are still in Abu Dhabi. We pray for their success in a foreign land so they can bring the fruits of their labor someday to benefit our country.

Have a great life everyone. God bless us all . Give it your best shot in your school , in your work and in your home.

Kerygma Conference 2019

Hi my friend I just attended the 2019 Kerygma Conference at the SMX Convention Center at MOA which lasted for 4 days with Bro Bo Sanchez and his team . It was a truly amazing experience . Knowing God's word and message for you is a unique experience.

 I attended varied talks : Investing the Millenial Way , Health - Depression and Anxiety , on high blood pressure , Toolbox of the Rich, Can ordinary people become leaders , among others .

Of course I also attended the plenary talks with Bro Bo Sanchez, Bro James , Bro Arun and a lot more of the  Kerygma speakers .

See you next year ...

A day with Alonzo at the Dinosaur Island Clark

Hi everyone so happy last Saturday ...got to spend the day with baby Alonzo. He was so amaze with the dinosaur's eggs. Initially seems scared with the giant dinosaurs but when he got the feel of it he was so happy . He keep coming back to the dinosaur's eggs playing hide and seek . It was truly amazing spending such a grand and jolly time with this kid. He is so adorable and responsive .

Hoping to having another grand day with our baby Alonzo...while he is so young ....because pretty soon when he gets bigger he will have other interests in his life . 

Wanting

 I tried to escape from the hurt
by sleeping it off
but I wasn't able to sleep the whole night
my eyes were close but my thoughts 
      was very much awake
 four letters in a row and all unanswered
i don't want to confront you and make demands
it will mean forcing you to do something
      just to please my whims

I needed reassurance from you
after what my Dad did to you
I don't know what's going on in your mind
have you changed your mind,
     your heart perhaps ?

it's all

questionings
and as usual , unanswered by you
again , i have to wait for your time
waiting , it's a never ending process

as if nothing really change
it's still the same feelings of aloneness
there are many fears i have
     in my heart

that i can't even seem to settle
i don't know where to go to ask for help
i feel i can not count on you
i can't seem to face my own feelings
my fears are eating me up

am i being selfish
but i am only asking a little of your time
perhaps even just 15 minutes
for you to write a short missive

how can i be sure of your feelings
when i don't feel secured?
will i always be the one to take
      the initiative ?
to write that letter , make that phone call

i think it should be a two way street
busy?
i am also busy but  i go out of my way
    to have time for you

i tried to understand you
by making all sorts of rationalization
but after sometime
i can't anymore take it - the neglect

 i guess love isn't enough
if i would be feeling like this
we better cut off the relationship now
to save me from much heart

a wise old man once said
"unhappiness comes from unfulfilled expectations "
i just have to be contented that you
     once loved me too

i felt lost
and yet there was no way done
to clear the cobwebs in my mind ?
when you are always not available

you don't have to be here physically
 i tried to turn to you
but there was no response
why ?

in my heart , it will always be you
but i can intellectualize my feelings
i know i can not hide from the pain
but i really couldn't take anymore
          the neglect

i think i can't wait anymore for the time
you'll have time for me
but i am still happy
God gave me the chance to know your
      feelings for me

and i want you to be happy
even if that means leaving you
         alone with yourself

i needed your comforting words
and all i hear is a deafening silence
i can see the shadows in the dark
           dancing again
perhaps it is there, where they really belong

i want to be a part of your life
but i feel more like an ornament
