Today's lesson

Some lessons or realizations i learned a few hours ago about being in a homosexual relationship. 

1. You either don't have a say about his or her acts ot decision. Plain simple insensitive stubborness...

2. You're not married so you don't get to officially decide for the welfare of each other. The promises you said or committment for each other is simply not as solidified by union of marriage. Asa ka pa!

3. You're still nobody , you're not even blood related so he/she can dismiss your suggestions, opinions, inputs or rants. That's as far as he/she can make you feel if he/she doesn't want to acknowledge your presence.

4. You're probably just into the relationship when he/she thinks it's okay &  that there's always who would understand and be more calm. In this case, maybe call the other person  "walang pakialam" for apparently missing the essence of partnership and even friendship that is to CARE for one or feel CARED about.

5. Each is still  his or her own person & with excuse #2 in line, you cannot push your agenda even if it is for your partner's sake. You may just become the KONTRABIDA to his face if you will push it. So what u can do is just zip you mouth! 

6. "Bakla ako eh!" Maybe true that being gay could be an excuse. But it's rather a Bull excuse to not see that some good intentions are meant not just for the partnership but for the supposed recipient of the intent. It's not being gay that made you as a person who cares, it's being human and it's also human to feel bad when your partner seems to not acknowledge your good intent.

It's just sad that many gay men perhaps will experience the same scenario and they won't find a way to get out of it. 

It may take a one great deal of miracle or big fall perhaps to make someone realize that to be in a relationship with someone gay or not, is bred with  mutual respect and we just have to remind ourselves that we do it coming from a best place within our heart. Sad to say such spirit isn't always noticed as it's clouded by closemindedness.

Nice Day


So it's a nice day in general. From time to time it's nice to take a break and have some solitary break from the usual routine.

As we all know, taking a break from the usual day to day grind of our lives can also be so taxing and uninspiring. As most inspirational books would say, take a break, smell the flowers, appreciate life even just for a few moment.

I take time from the usual routine as I know it's really important to do that for the sake of keeping it all in balance. As a person who enjoys a bit of spice or change from time to time, I take honor and pride in splitting myself from the bigger niche or arena just so that I can take a view of everyone around me and ponder about them, about their actions and their insane and sane acts.

MILEY CYRUS gone GAGA?
I love it! Well, she has to resurrect her career. For those who are saying her recent VMA 2013 performance was raunchy, wild and crazy, that's rather hypocritical I would say.  I would tend to side with the former Hannah Montana superstar on her latest gig just because in this crazy world whether you're in the entertainment industry or others, you need to reinvent yourself and stay in the game. Otherwise, you're just gonna rot!

NAPOLES in the headline
Hearing much of the Pork Barrel Scam these past days made me wrote an article note in my facebook on what I think about all these issue. I still stick to my opinion and yes, hearing last night that Napoles surrendered to PNoy was never a surprise to me. In my opinion, it's all but a wonderful telenovela-like script of gimmickry that is orchestrated by no less than the administration itself. They play it beautifully well. Just like a typical BIDA-KONTRABIDA role, I think the government is pulling all our legs here. So, what now if Janet surrendered? I am clamped into my boob tube to hear what is next? Will we ever find anyone guilty after this? Will we ignite more sentiments from the  Filipino people?

Maring and Habagat victim
I wonder how are the victims coping up these past few days? It would seem like everything is back to normal and that the Napoles issue has taken more of the ratings in terms of the headline. I just hope the relief efforts are still going strong and maybe for those politicians who have their PDAF , why not fund some of those relief operations for your constituents?


Social media and more
I seem to notice that many of us had really gone so gaga with the use of the internet and the social media. I love it actually because it's the fastest way to air our opinion. But just like the normal channel such as TV, radio or newspaper, let's not forget our responsibility to be a beacon of balance programming.

Mall people watching
During this time, as I enjoy  my 1 day break, I can't help but look around and observe a lot of the people, boys and girls. Some are busy walking. I wonder what are those people really doing, what are they thinking? Some guys who are in the mall who happens to just standby near the alleys, terraces, smoke cigars, dressed in rather semi fit shirts, dark shades, I think I know what they are? Some girls, in school uniform, dressed up or dressed down, so I remember a lot about the days when I was in college.

A lot to see and a lot to think about. In this little corner where I am writing this quick blog, I would just like to say it's a nice day. Rather different from my usual day. If there's anything good I'd like to take away from this break, that is, I want to start fresh starting next week to take on the bigger aspects of my work and my rather colorful personal life.

On reality, actuality, kid memories, adulthood and how simple events could spell some thoughts

It's a busy week amidst the hard rain these past few days. Though I've enjoyed a few times working remotely, it certainly is not an experience. It is not quite fun to stay at home , with heavy rains and flooding around your area. And yet, your are still required to extend your work and pretend that everything will be okay. True enough, behind dark clouds is a sun waiting to wreak some heat. Only a few days more and most of us will complain about how warm it is already. Truly, no one is contented enough!

I missed those days when I was a student where classes would be suspended due to typhoon, heavy rains and flooding. I watched the news these past few days and I said to myself that it's one of those unwanted benefit of being an adult where you are no longer bounded by the announcement of class suspension. We have to live with that reality!

Funny because when most of us were younger,  we wanted to act like we're all adults and basically we wanted to fast-forward our years to adulthood.  But such attitude is driven or flipped the other way around. Now, (if not all of us) as adults we've been wanting to go back to the childhood experiences we used to enjoy. We would find ourselves wanting to experience being a kid again, where it is less stress and experiencing a real worry-free life. Again  I say, suck it and just move forward, reality bites. It is what it is but I am not saying we should stop looking back to those good , childhood memories!

Sweet rain

We grew older and somehow we've forgotten how our inner child can love the rain...

Today, even though it's a swift shower under the heaven, I enjoyed each strands of blissful water that touched and quenched my skin...

For it was sweet, it was fun..


For it was with you, my love..

For it was a sweet rain, such a nice moment to love about the rain..

A priceless play, forever!
