A Kingdom of Conscience

"Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright that God may love thee. Speak the truth, always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong." This movie moved me... it reminded me that the battle isn't over yet - I'll have to fight till it's over, till my breath comes to its last. ***** "A better world than has ever been seen. A kingdom of conscience. A kingdom of heaven."

Closing time

****** Closing Time Every new beginning comes from Some other beginning's end... ****** As I leave, I will pack a loadful of memories with me. It wasn't just an experience but a learning one. Tommorow's uncertain. I really don't know. But I'm certain that I have engraved a meaningful niche upon every mind that I've met. I have left something good on the ground that I recently trodded upon. Someday I will be proud, someday they'll be proud and happy that we've crossed each other's path.

Great surprises come in small packages..

CALIBRATED PREEMPTIVE RESPONSE. Its worst than ever. A signal that tried to send a message "I don't want to step down and I am very scared" This calibrated whatever thing is a clear sign of ethical imbecility, political strife and genuine greed to the superlative. I thought our policemen are dutybound to protect the people and not only the president? I am too much disgusted how Ate Glue unscrupulously lambasted and ordered to water the people whom catapulted her to power. As things materialized, the way GMA tried to show-off and project a strong image clearly shows that she is the weakest. GLORIA MACAPAGAL ARROYO. Small but terrible. Great usurper. Cheater. Liar. She was worst than Erap. At the height of the protest to overthrow him, Erap conceded and never used violence to shut up the truth. At least Erap was the duly constituted president then. He was voted by the people. He didnt grab power by cheating. Ate Glue on the otherhand, eagerly arranged an exit plan and compromise on the height of the protests. She was never to be found in one of those protests or rallies, not until the military withdrew their support from Erap. Not until she was already to be proclaimed. And now she cheated us by saying Hello Garci. In this story of struggle for integrity, Ate Glue will always be haunted by the truth. It will never stop until it catches her in shame and be able to slap her in the face and tell: Indeed, great surprises come in small packages!

Sad but true

I reposted a friend's letter hoping that it could reach the hearts of those who are concerned. Thanks Art. Guys, what happened to us? Lately, we havent been talking much, havent bonded much, havent been together much, despite the fact that we study in the same school grounds, and we havent done our Bible Study activity for a long time. Is it because of our thesis? finals? school project? barkada? Now that the finals week is over (or at least comming to an end), Arent we forgetting something? Now that our schoolwork is over (or almost over), what next? After our schoolwork, then will we remember our God? will God only be number two? Bretherens, am not saying this as if I am asserting that im clean and not commiting mistakes in this life. Im just reminding everyone. You see, I've noticed, we're only happy when things are going along with us. But when hardships come, we fall apart. We dont hear from one another anymore when problems come. And just look at us. Our mission in school, are we gonna be the ones defeated? I hope not. I pray not. Let us do our best not to forget the most important things in our lives first. Let us not take it for granted. We are Christians. In each and every sense of the word. We are Christians no matter where we are and what we do. We can do this. together.

Finale, its almost time to go..

ghosts??? nope, Stephenians on their finale during the Social Studies Program

Wake me up when september ends

Lately, my fascination was caught by Greenday's recent music video Wake Me Up When September Ends. Well its a first of its kind for the punk rock band. If i'm not mistaken, it seems as if it's the first video where the band inculcated a strong dramatic efffect to accompany a gloomy lyrics to send a message to their viewers. And I guess it pays off, because I've been hearing positive feedbacks for the video which, I think is Greeeenday's subtle protest and move to renounce war. The lyrics goes: Summer has come and passed The innocent can never last Wake me up when September ends Like my father's come to pass Seven years has gone so fast Wake me up when September ends Here comes the rain again Falling from the stars Drenched in my pain again Becoming who we are As my memory rests But never forgets what I lost Wake me up when September ends Summer has come and passed The innocent can never last Wake me up when September ends Ring out the bells again Like we did when spring began Wake me up when september ends Here comes the rain again Falling from the stars Drenched in my pain again Becoming who we are As my memory rests But never forgets what I lost Wake me up when september ends Summer has come and passed The innocent can never last Wake me up when September ends Like my father's come to pass Twenty years has gone so fast Wake me up when September ends Wake me up when September ends Wake me up when September ends
