Weak People Never Give Way When They Ought To



Something to ponder upon these days - "weak people never give way when they ought to", whereas, survival of the fittest is quite applicable as we traverse in this pandemic.


Analyzing this thought-process deeper, so if weak people can do that, how much more for the strong ones?

What does it take to command that sheer will-power to un-tame the downhill effect?

The Unsung Hymn Of Our Hearts


How many times would i listen to our favorite song?
Before i realize i was too late to bring you back,

I couldn't discern any more between reality and illusion
Or am i just getting stoned by the endless pang of regret?

I wouldn't want you back..., but the crisp, vivid memories
are just so hard to let go, so brief yet full of bliss,

"Do me a favor baby, put down your new God"
the song goes, over and over again,




The melancholic rhythm drowns me,
allowing me to breathe once and for all

To cherish and reminisce
the good times... our downsides

and yes, even the pledge..
the silent intimacy that was never spoken

where the language of action,
murmured in pain and disbelief

and, in glorious affection
to finally submerge the unsung hymn of our hearts

Decisiveness


I once read that one of the most important trait of a great leader is "influence". These days, that virtue is a must have. In order to manifest it, one must bring decisiveness to the table. Know what you want, chase for it and grab it as soon as you see in the most opportune time. (You might've read "Who Moved My Cheese", which is quite relatable to this.)


What comes in to mind? Always safeguard yourself first, among others and things of this world. It's not being selfish, instead, it's being assertive because you know deep inside, the only way to move ahead is to put your foot on the door - which will open possibilities for you to take chance on.

Respect The People Who Serve You


Sa gitna ng kasamaan at pandemyang wala pang gamot, makikita mo sa mga Pinoy ang pagiging creative at pagiging "adaptable". Likas sa atin ang mapag-malasakitan at mapagpahalaga sa kapuwa.


I hope this virtue amongst us will continue to wave in ripple effects whatever the tide may bring.

Nauuso ang FoodGrabs, Orders Online, Lalamoves, and the likes - i hope in mind that whenever we use such services, we give even the smallest of tips to those folks serving our needs. (well, mas masaya kung mas malaki ang tip, mwahahaha)

Coffee Is My Blood - 'sabi ng mga nasa kolsener


Malamig ang panahon, lalo na't naka-lockdown ang karamihan. Walang ibang magawa kundi ang magpalipas ng oras. Ngunit di kumpleto ang pag chillax kung walang kapeng sa amoy pa lamang ay na-eenganyo na ang sense of smell natin.

Go ahead, brew your own, make your own, timplang di 3-in-1, kundi timplang may pagmamahal.
