Conversations with my Brother

SUNDAY November 4, 2012
I was busy double checking my hymnal book this morning after i arrived from the house of worship when my phone was suddenly vibrating, i forgot to turn it off - it was my brother calling me.

Absent-mindedly, i said hello and he immediately caught my attention when he muttered that he dreamt of me last night - dead! Oh wow! is all that i could say - laughing.

So we had the brief chat and kamustahan. He went serious again telling me to be careful, telling me to take care. Although i was in happy spirits, i couldn't help myself thinking of what he said. He's a sweet brother, a cool and caring one. We get to talk twice or once a week since we're both busy with our own lives now. I am suddenly flushed with nostalgia of our childhood in the northern province.

I brushed off the impact of me hearing the news that i'm dead. And we ended the call laughing to each other, him teasing me that i could get stumbled in the choir loft. Me reverting to him that he should take care too. Letting him know that i must go since i have to prep myself for the worship service

Contemplating now about the incident earlier this morning, i have come to be at peace of the situation. That death of course is inevitable - whatever the cause could be. Natural or incidental or accidental. But to think about it, you can't ignore the scary feeling or at least a tinge of restlessness. For most of us do not think death in a daily basis, nor we try entertaining it in our thoughts. It's simply macabre, a taboo ever since. But i guess, the vital question is, are you ready to die? Are you prepared? What lies ahead after death?

For me, death is just but a sweet slumber.

Twitter to instagramize itself

Just read from wired.com that bird with the whale is trying to morph its services ala Instagram.

Are u excited about it? Twitter aficionados?

Halo

Halo
Wear it?
Or was it there?
Now what!
Reflect
Flex
And you're
Something neat
Let's say
It's wifi
It's common
Something proprietary
And push
It back again

Halo-halo

Stealing the Abrupt

I'm awake because i still have the sanity
to think

and to quench the drool of ecstasy
is to yield

but my heart says no...
never, never, never can it be

and yet, i indulged
and yes!, oh yes, i lost.. again.

Tell me now,
how to kill the remorse

Tell me now
O wind of wisdom how to repent

To close my eyes
and just forget

Of the nightmarish
tinge of the flesh

Afraid now... once again
the next step, what's the consequence?

Save me! oh please, i beg...
My troubles may rest incessantly
