I love World History subject. Back in my High School Days, I love it when our teacher unfolds before us the significant event that concerned the whole wide world. Specifically, I am very interested to listen about the World War stories. I heard a lot of them from my late grand father. He is a Veteran, the unsung hero during his time.

Looking back, every country has its line of defense that will safeguard the citizens against terrorism. I should have known that being a citizen from one of the feared regions of the Philippines. Once in a while if not oftentimes, I heard news about war and terrorism not only on my country but other countries as well. The front liners are our soldiers who are willing to die in the name of love and freedom to the country to which they belong. World Wars 1 and 2 that became highlight in World History subjects acknowledged the bravery of American soldiers who fought not only for their own country but for their allies as well. Who can forget the Vietnam War which cost thousands of lives both armed forces and ordinary citizens. But again that’s all written in the World History book.

And now, facing the present and anticipating the future, there are still a lot of stories to unfold which will be incorporated in the updated World History Book soon. Isn’t it more worth reading if what our grand children read on their history book are the generosity of every citizen who paid greater respect in honor of those who wage their lives for the country?- the Veterans.

Generosity in broader aspect means, giving what we have to those who needed it the most. One concrete example is car donation. Too extravagant to do, others might think, but upon knowing that through this way we can help the community and our country as a whole, then one wouldn’t have any second thought to do so. Why donate car to charity? Talking about war, I got this idea from the advocacy of the Vietnam Veterans of America initiated by the Illinois State Council. The idea they have implemented is simple, fast and secure through car donation charities. They initiated this to help in providing critical support services for their defenders.

What a great cause. Hopefully, our Armed Forces here in the Philippines would come up with similar brilliant ideas.

Expanding our territory... spreading the Gospel... Making Christ known...

What's so difficult with this that it seems like only a few made this as a commitment and part of their daily journey?

What happened to us that we cannot do such simple thing?

What happened to those who have done it yet out of obligation and not of passion?

What happened to me that I easily get discouraged when every time I will do it, I am rejected?

Think think think... What happened to our first love?

Have we forgotten it?

Have we lost that compassion for those who are lost not only within our territory but beyond?

I plead guilty to all of these...

Think think think...

An Ophthalmologist from Stahl Eye Center New York warned the teens who tried to imitate Lady Gaga's look on his Bad Romance music video. The kind of  online contact lenses that she used may cause permanent loss of vision if not fitted properly as this may cause eye infection. All Lady Gaga's fan should heed this warning if they want to see their future brighter and clearer.

Marriages are ought to be sanctified... cherished and meant to last forever. Unfortunately, some couple overlooked the value of Marriage. It cannot be denied that Divorce or Annulment became a trend. One sign of misunderstanding can lead to separation. Some couples are short with patience. Whether celebrities or ordinary people both shared the same dilemma- facing marital conflict and unable to overcome it. This is possible to those who do not considered Marriage as a sacred union... to those who do not have knowledge that what God has bound together shall not be separated. This is the blatant truth that even my own parents is not an exception.  

But how can one stay in marriage when it is already poisoned with infidelity? How can one stand the feeling of animosity caused by broken vows? Sometimes, patience became devalued when overcome with the issue of trust and fidelity... 

Of course no marrying couples want to end up on this kind of dilemma. Our last recourse would be entrusting to God our partner that they should be His chosen one or else...

What an insightful Saturday!

Note: That pic was of my parents... the only one that's left, it was torn by the flood for the second time
