Happy New Year!

Every people change and have some adjustment… annually we are celebrating and revelling the New Year’s Day and it is usually celebrated at the 1^st day of January. They said it is the day to start and fright something new. Start of a new beginning at the same time a new ending. Start of a new life and existence. Start of a new journey and excursion to our dream, trance and aim in life. I believe that determination and willpower is what makes us succeed and prosper and blind determination isn’t always helpful and obliging to us. New Year is one of the most celebrated and eminent days in the whole world but we don’t have the same day to celebrate and rejoice it. In the Philippines, people celebrate it in their own unique and inimitable ways. People usually use fire crackers or in general they were making and creating noise. Sound or clatter to move out the bad spirit in their houses. The preparation begins by decorating and embellishing houses, buying gifts and most of all to have a mass before the celebration of the New Year. They said, “New Year is every man’s birthday.” Be always at war with our vices, at peace with our brothers and sisters and let each day count. CHANGE… the depraved and wicked attitudes and personalities we have, say sorry to the person we have hurt, offended and miffed for and love and treasure them as well as how we love ourselves. Happy New Year to all of us. Another year to live and count, to deport anxiety and distress and to love and give!

Adore and Love Our Own Dialect!

        Parlance or dialect is very imperative and vital for us to apprehend and comprehend with each other. Ilocano,Tagalog, Visaya and Panggalatok are some of the dialects here in the Philippines. Every region in the Philippines has their own dialect. Ilocano is the one. Some says that Ilocano is the stiffest and solidest to utter, to phonate and when it is chattered. It is arduous and laborious to absorb, to learn and to erudite for. But, everything can be swot, learn and study if we like it to be perfect and faultless if it is time for us to use that dialect, Ilocano. As an Ilonggo, I can’t say that I have mastered and grasped speaking, articulating and inferring Ilocano dialect but I am trying my best. Wherever I go I often used Ilocano and I can’t control myself .There are times that my grammar was erroneous. But, I love Ilocano, I love being an Ilonggo. Every problem in our life and existence has an answer and solution. Everything in the world has an elucidation. Nothing is impossible and dreadful when we believe. Have an enormous trust and reliance in ourselves. Manage our time practice and drill in pronouncing more in our own dialect. There is time for everything. LOVE our own dialect.

ITS CHRISTMAS TIME!

       "Peace and Good Will in Christmas, Dream and Have Successful Life"

The clock strikes at twelve in midnight and everyone is celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ. Our hearts go out to all of our fellow men and relatives and we wish them well. It is the spirit of Christmas. Christmas does something quite miraculous to most of us. The sense of family unity becomes something to be newly cherished. We greet them all with uncritical affection. Peace and good will to all of us. And the last the love that wouldn’t be fades no matter happens and last till eternity. There are times that the peace is disturbed, the good will contracts and we go back striving and the differences of daily life. But the vivacity of Christmas does not fade away. Sharing and giving we can witness in Christmas day. Before Christmas people are making list for the person they will send gifts. Some are selling lanterns. Some are caroling in houses. Remember to be kind and discipline because Christmas happens only once a year. They said, it is not the sharing and giving when it’s Christmas. Instead love our fellow men, forget all the problems had and start a new beginning to have a happy and new ending.

New Beginning, New Ending

               ”Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself”—Leo Tolstoy

                Change is state of transformation which results in a fundamental shift in the way we perceive and interact with the world. It is altered in appearance, turned into something or someone new and being made different. The concept of change as anyone can castrate the way they are in their lives and become something new. It is important in our lives as it proffer us new experiences whether the change is positive of negative. Change can trigger fear and resistance in just a snap of our fingers. If someone says we need to do it, it can be welcomed by choosing to move forward with an attitude of gratitude for the opportunities change can bring to the quality of our life.

                Change happens every day, every hour, every minute and even every second. We cannot force ourselves to have change in our heart and mind and we’re not expecting to have change but it will happen whether we like it or not and whether if it’s good or bad.

Equal Rights... Equal Opportunities

All of us have the right to do what we want. We have the freedom… the freedom to prefer, to strive, to bring out what is inside of our heart and mind and to reach our dreams.

In times of the Spaniards, only the man has the lucid and freedom to work in all the works here in the earth and the only thing the woman can do is to feed and care to her siblings. Only the father has the strength and ability to choose and glimpse on what’s his family do. For their profits and security, only the father has the lucid to prefer and look for the one who is right for his sons and daughters. All of this is the right of the man only. But for now, equal rights. Equal opportunities, it is spare for all. Gender awareness and gender equality … if there are men who are attorneys, doctors, architects, accountant and so on, there are also women who were like them. In our home, the works done for a woman can also be done by a man itself. If a man can lead an organization, a town of even a country, a woman can do so.

Nothing is impossible when we believe. If that man accomplished that impossible and hard to finish works and a woman can also do that. As a well-being, we need always to give space for others. We need to give and share our blessings… our talents and knowledge. We need to give chance to others, to experience also what we are experiencing now and what we’ve undergone. We need equalized nation, everyone has the right, we need to be free from extremes and we need to have same chance for advancement.

PACE AND SAVE THE EARTH!

  “We have forgotten to be good guests, how to walk lightly on the earth as its other creatures do.”-Barbara Ward

Day by day we are all discovering new things and new discoveries. Technology… we are using technology nowadays. Through technology we can easily finish and accomplish our tasks and works in just a snap of our fingers. But, are these technologies eco-friendly? Are they here in the Earth just to give pleasure and happiness to the people? And are they here to ruin, destroy and damage the Earth? Yes, it is not bad or wick to progress and develops, but try to think also for the future of the next generation and not ourselves alone.

Climate change truly affects much the Earth. The forests, the crops, the oceans, the rivers and lakes, the mountains, the animals and we the people of the Earth as the highest among what the CREATOR’s created, we are all here to protect, care, and especially love what He created. The old pals said that in their times, fresh air is there to breathe, green forests are there to see, healthy bodies of land are there to plant trees and crops and to build our houses and clean bodies of water are there to drink and to clean our body. Try to compare the nature nowadays into the nature in the past decades and centuries, we can say that in the times of our own old pals, the Earth is healthier than the Earth today and there is a BIG difference. The air, water and land were already polluted. Little by little the forests are getting bald, the animals on both water and land are getting danger and getting smaller and smaller in their counts, the rivers and lakes are being filled and covered with trashes and the glaciers or the big block of ice in the both end poles of the Earth are getting to melt already. All of these are because of our own deeds and little by little the beauty and pulchritude of the Earth is disappearing.

We've done a lot of bad deeds and the only solution to save the earth is we the people. Recover all what we’ve done that is very wrong. Start a new life and start change. Plant trees, clean and protect the bodies of water, give vital value and worth to animals. Abandon or remove using a gas that are harmful to the health of our neighbours like the vehicles or the transportations we are using right now. Instead use bicycle or the vehicles that are not capable in using a gaseous thing. Synergy is the solution. I believe that synergy is the best way to save the earth. Beside this, if our surroundings… our ecosystem is beautiful and gorgeous, this will serve as a way to reach our dreams and through this, we can live to the fullest and breathe pulchritude and continue the journey of life.

                 

WANTED:CHANGE

        “Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can't ride you unless your back is bent.” - Martin Luther King, Jr. 

        All of us have a lot of works and obligations. In our home, we are the child of our parents and we are doing household activities as our daily routine everyday. In our school, we are the students, we are there to study and learn to fulfill our dreams and become a successful individual someday. And the last, here in the Earth, as a person, we are all here to protect, to care, to share, to give and most of all to love the one we love, our parents and teachers who was the always to send knowledge and lesson, the one who gives inspiration to reach and achieve our goal, and most of all to our dear “GOD” who make all the gorgeous and beautiful things here all around the Earth.

        As an individual, we have a lot of problems to solve and a work to finish especially in school. I know that nobody is perfect, so if a certain thing was not finished and solved in the right period of time, we cannot do anything to go back in the past or adjust the time where we have done something that is not easy to accept or we have done something wrong at that time. We must treasure and value every second of time. When we commit mistakes, try to accept it and make a way to make it straight and right. Try to say sorry for those we have hurts. “I want change,” I want to change all the bad characteristics and attitudes I have. I want to stop my laziness in doing my task and works in school. Change… change… change.

        Make life as a mission. Our dear God sends us to this world because we have a mission to accomplish, a mission to finish and a dream to fulfill. Our life becomes meaningful because of the missions we are facing. There is time for everything and "Time is Gold."Don't waste our time to the things that are not important and significant. Lets make a change a BIG change to make our life more meaningful than what we are expected to be
