Something Unusual (1st time) : Never miss a chance to help

Date : September 6, 2013

papuntang San Miguel, may nakasakay ako sa jeep na 3 mahirap/nangangalakal, Isang Matandang babae, isang teenager na lalake at isang batang babae. At first i was disgusted because they smell really bad. Nang magbayad ang ale ng P7.00, ang sabi ng jeepney driver "kasama mo ba yung dalawang bata? kulang ng bayad niyo" at sagot ng ale "nangangalakal lng naman po kami, yan lang kaya namin" with sadness on her face. the teenager doesnt want to sit dahil nahihiya kaya tumayo na lang siya, pero sinigaw sigawan niya nung driver. Nanlambot yung puso ko dahil wala naman gingawa ung bata ehh, sumbit na nga lang. Kumuha ako ng pera sa bag ko at iniabot sa driver "kuya, bayad po nung bata para makaupo n at wag niyo na hiyain". and then everyone started staring its as if i did something wrong.The little girl was sitting beside me and i heard her talking to her lola "nagugutom na ako" then the ale said "hahanap pa tayo ng pagkukuhanan natin ng pambili." my eyes started to become teary, so i grabbed my wallet ang gave the ale P100 and told her "pasensiya na po yan lang kaya ko ngayon, kumain na po kayo pagkababa niyo." The ale looked at me with a smile on her face and said "maraming salamat anak, kaawaan ka ng Diyos". Hindi maipinta ang mukha nilang tatlo sa ligaya. Nagabot na din sa kanila ng pera ang mga kasakay namin sa jeep, at halos maluha na ang ale. Pagkababa nila sa hrp ng SM, ang sabi ng ale "maraming salamat sa mg tulong niyo, malking bagay ito samin. Gabayan sana kayo ng Diyos at patuloy na tumanggap ng biyaya."

no matter how unfortunate they are, they never lose hope & faith in our Lord.
I was then reminded of the verse "GOD LOVES A CHEERFUL GIVER" & "Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the first fruits of all your produce; then your barns will be filled with plenty,and your vats will be bursting with wine.".

Never miss a chance to give & be a blessing to other people in many ways. :">

Something Unusual (2nd time) : JEEP MOMENTS

Date : November 5, 2013

going home from San Miguel with my usual pay-fare-and-put-on-my-earphones peg, along SM tarlac, a woman made eye contact with me (fyi i dont know her). So i took off my earphones (thought that maybe she knows me & wanted to talk to me) and she smiled at me. And i said "Hello po," she replied with...

"i remember you. Nakasabay na kita magchurch hindi ko alam kelan na, and yung time na yon, you prayed for me. Hindi kita malilimutan dahil nung service na yon, i was feeling down and i really needed someone to talk to me and/or pray for me. Ehh wala kang kasama, so we prayed together. Ang galing ni Lord, i believe na ginamit ka Niya to send a message to me while we practically dont know each other. You prayed for my family & my work, everything you said is like, you've known me for a long time, its as if naikwento ko sayo buhay ko..nastruck ako at na-enlighten ako sa mga sinabi mo. God does work in mysterious ways, & at the right time. gusto ko lang magpasalamat sayo." and i was like.. ughhh. SPEECHLESS! So nasabi ko na lang, "ganyan talaga si Lord. Faith & trust lang kelangan." tapos bumababa na ko sa TSU..

that feeling of making or directing some stranger's life to the right path is very fulfilling and nakakataba ng puso. If only i could cry infront of her knowing that God is working through me and is affecting peoples lives in a good way. Honoring God and pleasing God has never been this awesome. I also believe that when we pray for something or someone, it is the Holy Spirit doing its job through us, its like speaking in tongues, that you wont even remember or have any idea what you've just said / prayed for. We are but instruments in the hands of God...all credit, all honor and all glory belongs to Him and Him alone.
PRAYER WORKS! IT REALLY DOES!

So likewise you, when you have done all those things which you are commanded, say, “We are unprofitable servants. We have done what was our duty to do.” (Luke 17:10)

HIGHLIGHT NG NOV.5 KO ITO!! nabuo araw ko dahil dito. How great is our God, right?

Something Unsual (helped an old lady go home to Cabanatuan)

i was having my nails done at the mall. Sat in the most comfortable way, earphones on & minding my own business.. Can't really hear what everyone else is talking about but there's this old lady (who i thought was also a customer) who was sitting near the front desk and was dictating numbers to two of the staffs.. by the looks of the old lady, i felt that something's not right. so i lowered the volume of my earphones and listened carefully.

OLD LADY : makikisuyo lamang po ako kung maaari niyo pong tawagan ung number na to, hindi po kasi ako makauwi hindi ko alam, nanakawan ako ng pang matrikula ng apo ko kanina sa bus pag baba ko sa metrotown.

BEKI : landline po ba ito? wala naman po kaming load pantawag jan, ang mahal mahal ng pantawag sa landline. Bigyan ka nalang namin ng pera pamasahe kesa pangload namin, edi nakauwi ka pa. (samantalang may landline dun sa salon!!!!!)

OLD LADY : hindi naman ho ako humihingi ng pera sa inyo, nagpapatulong lamang po ako makitawag para po alam doon sa amin.

BEKI : kayanga ho pamasahe na lang ibibigay namin sa inyo para makauwi na kayo.

OLD LADY : (hindi na maipinta ung mukha niya sa hiya at lungkot)

SALON STAFFS : (nagbigay ng barya barya.. may bente naman, pero the rest barya) 

OLD LADY : maraming salamat po. ;(

buti na lang patapos na ako..hindi ko tinanggal ung tingin ko dun sa matanda, buti na lang din mabagal siya maglakad, ung pra bang hindi talaga niya alam ang gagawin niya. sa bwisit kung ano-ano pa pinagsasabi nung mga andun sa salon kesyo daw "bat kasi magisa siya lumalakad, katanda na niya, di na lang niya diretchuhin na kelangan niya ng pera kadami dami pang sinabi. nwawala daw siya, naglakad daw siya metro hanggang dito kalayo-layo! imbyerna.." ughhhh sobrang inis ko sa kanila pero di ko maiparamdam.. sinundan ko ngayon si Manang, tinanung ko saan siya uuwi, Cabanatuan daw at hindi niya alam papano umuwi or san sasakay.. i asked if she has enough money para makauwi.. pinakita niya ung binigay.. jusko pang student/senior di nga abot -____- tas siempre iba pa ung pantric o jeep pagdating nun. isshh. Hindi ko na tinanong bakit siya nasa Tarlac o anung business niya doon. basta sabi ko iuuwi ko na siya sa Cabanatuan. I can give her money for transpo pero ung kunsensya ko na papano kung lokohin na naman siya, di naman pulubi ung tao para itrato ng ganun (kahit naman pulubi di dapat tinatrato na parang walang lugar sa mundo), so instead, i went to Cabanatuan with her (without her knowing), sabi ko sasamahan ko lang siya hanggang umalis ung bus, nung paalis na, pumwesto ako sa likod at ibilin ko na sa kundoktor si Manang. pagdating sa Terminal, bumaba na lahat, nilapitan ko siya ulit nagulat siya andun ako (iba ung tuwa sa mukha niya from there daw alam na niya paano umuwi), sinamahn ko na siya magabang ng tric, tas binayaran ko na din ung tric niya.. sasamahan ko pa sana pauwi eh kayalang last trip na ng pa-Tarlac nun.

Lesson : according to God's commandment, we should love our neighbors as we love ourselves.. There's nothing wrong with helping others in need. Hindi man siya humingi ng tulong sakin pero alam ko sa sarili ko na kelangan niya. i was reminded of the verse..

Proverbs 19:17 ...Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will repay him for his deed... sabi nga ni Lord "You shall open wide your hand to your brother, to the needy and to the poor, in your land." we are all brothers & sisters in the eyes of God, wag natin i-lable ung estado ng buhay ng tao lalo na sa pagtulong. We do not need known organizations or clubs para maipaabot ung tulong natin at hindi natin kelangan ipakita sa lahat kung anong ginagawa natin.Dapat isinasapuso natin ung mga ginagawa natin..

On my way to church for Sunday Worship, a female hobo attacked me in front of Yellow Cab Recto corner Nicanor Reyes (near FEU) with a long dagger on hand. She ran after me with that long dagger and she was trying to get my small bag. i bumped into a guard stand while i was protecting my bag na siyang kadahilanan ng aking mga sugat sa tuhod at siko. The people who saw the incident told me "muntik ka ng masaksak", pinansangga ko kasi ung backpack ko tsaka ung small bag ko. Nobody helped me at first, i think they were all afraid as well of that baliw. Nung nadapa na ko saka lang lumapit ung 3 guard sa near establishments, ung dalawang guard hinabol ung baliw, while the other was was kind enough to give me water, tissue and soap to clean my bruises. Thank God nothing was taken from me.

Lord thank You for this life. Despite today's incident i still felt your protection by those people who helped me. You kept me alive for the 3rd time. I pray that you take away this pain and heal my bruises Father God. Thank you also for the Ushers and all my churchmates at Victory Ubelt for assisting me & prayed for me. You are Great!

WHY?

a poem i made n the 16th of August year 2006.

Why are they like that?
its like they've flown away in a single snap.
is it only me?
or there's really no more we?

why am i so sad?
the fact that i already had,
friends that are always there
and i hope that they'll always bare.

i give my best to all my friends,
including enemies, cheaters, and even cleptohands.
what will i do to make them see,
that i'm with them wherever they be.

even though only one or two are close to me,
All of us are close based on what i see.
I know they wont leave me alone in the air
because friends shout treat each other fair.

Chatting about boys would make you roar,
obsession for men would even make you a whore.
we are girls so that's okay to do.
but leaving your friends 'cause of them wouldnt make you true.

A ball is a circle, no beginning, no end.
it keeps us together like our circle of friends.
but the treasure inside for you to see,
is the treasure of friendship you've granted to me.

YOU DONT ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT

"Sometimes, it's okay to walk away, to let go of the person who broke your heart, and to get a new start."
--what if you started it? what if you're the one who broke his heart? and after sometime you realize that you cant live without that person so you try to mend the bond torn by pride..

life is sometimes unfair. some people ask for second chances and are given the opportunity ; most people dont give when YOU'RE the one asking. #medyounfair 

@MgaKasabihan - "Hindi pwedeng ikaw nalang yung lumalaban para sa inyo."
-- its worth a try.. but i guess love isn't really enough for him.. love is a two-way-give-and-take relationship.. but in my case, it aint. :/

Gwiyomi Song

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsDbzoDEAw0&feature=youtu.be

nirequest lang ito talaga ni Pete Estabillo at Norbert Paganpan.

i dont even know the lyrics of the song :)

 the "Kiyomi (귀요미) Song (송)" or "Gwiyomi Song" is by Hari (하리)and the player part (I guess) was made popular by BToB's Illhoon who performed his own short rendition on Weekly Idol, ever since it's been very popular among korean idols for aegyo skits and such... In English, the term 'kiyomi' translate roughly to "cutie" or "cute person" (since it's more of a colloquial term), so it's been coined "cutie player" in English =
