Life and Love


Life must go on...

Like a tree that is planted in my heart
It needs to be nourished and watered;
Like a flower that blooms every spring
Like my heart pounding in a boxing ring.


But love cannot be love without someone to be loved
I may be foolish but I know it's true;
That falling in love with you
Is the greatest feeling even when I am blue.


Could love be there when the rain starts to pour?
Could love still be there even when it's broken?
Could love still be there when you're not around;
No it isn't
because Love, your Love is the Love when Love isn't there.

Fate: A Sassy Girl Story

fate and love
What is fate? as most people may ask. It is building a bridge of chance for someone you love. There is one thing that love strongly suggest that if you love someone, set her free. What is wrong with someone whom you do not love marry?. Ironic, however, true.

What is love? Ask yourself. Do you love her? I think not. If you want to find love, stop being foolish and start living. If she comes back to you, she's all yours.

Love is blind they say
But what can't you see states;
That falling in love is a hearsay
This feeling of mine obliterates.

Can you see this ache in my heart
How I wish this wouldn't last;
But what can I do, I love you so
God, help me to find a cure fast.



fate? what is it?

Why can't I erase you in my mind
I am full of you;
Please stop this at once
Or else I may be blind.

I want to lose you  but I can't
I want to slap you but my hands got tied up;
I want to squeeze you hard until you pop
But this love mine keeps stronger in an instant.




fate controls


O, how I love you so
Please get out of my sight;
I don't want to be hurt again
But I can't help it, I'm a fool for you.

I love you with all my heart
I love you no matter what;
O, how I wish you will be a part
Of my life 'til the very last drop of my blood stops.

Humility

i came down for you to see
the love i have received with glee
but disgrace and distrust was upon you
now who i am to give this love, i woe.


i gave up my position for my friends
but you never noticed, as if you’re my fiend
i am willing to give up even my life
but you broke my heart like a cut of a knife

but love in me didn’t stop
though you ignored me, it breaks my heart
unconditional love i give, that’s for free
receive it in your heart truthfully, i plea.
-JESUS-

humility 

Thank You MBFI Family


 My quest on becoming a Metrobank Scholar was indeed God’s favor.

I was born barely having parents beside me. My mother, who is a nurse, left us to pursue her dreams abroad. I was eleven months old then and the youngest among three boys. My father took care of us up until he became a fugitive of the law when i was in grade 3. Life is hard, mind you, without any parents living beside you nor giving you advises and support. God has been so gracious that He didn’t allowed us to have no shelter, food and clothing. God provided us a family who would take good care of us. My father’s sisters took us and became our guardians. They chose not to have a family of their own and be a responsible guardians.


I lived independently ever since my parents was not around. I strive really hard to be on top of the game. Learning the basics on my own, selling ice drop in our school, and save a little of my allowance to buy educational books. Walking was always a part of my life. To save more, I seldom ride a transport and just walk.

I have learned a lot since childhood. I owe them all to my wonderful Aunts who has always been there for me and to my siblings.

After graduating in High School, I started wondering if I could go to college. At that time, I was ashamed of asking a big favor to my guardians to send to me to a good university. I started applying for a scholarship, without them knowing it. I prayed really hard to God to order everything and allow me to pass any scholarship. I’ve waited for an answer.

My heart was pounding, beating fast, as the day of enrollment comes near. I have chosen a course way back in grade school. Since then I was preparing myself to face a degree in Biology and be a medical doctor after. I enrolled in Ateneo de Davao University with a degree in Biology. I could get a part time job while going to school, i told myself. But right after I could pass all the requirements to the registrar, i received a call and told me that I passed the Metrobank Scholarship. My mouth was shut. I don’t know how to react and just thank God for the blessing. I went immediately back to Cotabato City and enrolled in Notre Dame University. While my dream was to become a doctor, the course granted by the Foundation was BS in Accountancy and BS in Mathematics.  I later chose BS in Accountancy. At first I was shocked by the numbers and later loved them. After graduation, i finally saw my mother and her new family.

I thanked God all the more when I finished a degree. I said that without God’s blessing and favor and without the foundation, one person’s dream may not be realized. When a person strive so hard, God sees the effort and grants him his desire, touching other people to be a vessel and an instrument in achieving that desire. To Tito Chito, and all my MBFI Family, words of thanks may not be enough. I continually pray that you will inspire more people in believing and achieving their dreams.

I now pursue my Doctor of Philosophy degree, it may not be a medical doctor that I desired before, still I thank God that I could help other people as well.

Thank you so much 

Just Do It



I
A friend opened up his difficulties
He struggled on matters that I hardly know;
But one thing I know that I should listen for feelings
Be quick to listen and slow to speak.

II
That friend released his emotions
the wounds of his heart sets his tongue in motion;
we ought to have control in our speech, I said
see our hearts and maybe the problem is you.

III
we ought to desire and experience life change
humble in ourselves to accept God’s word;
just do it as Nike’s motto says
do what the Word says, lasting life change shall begin.
~James 1:19-27~


NIKE Just do it

TUKSO






I
as i walk down the road of Cd’s and DVD’s
i saw new release videos, my eyes drawn away and was enticed;
naked people posing everywhere, nudity exposed
“tukso layuan mo ako”, i shut my eyes closed.

II
a few steps further brand  new cellphones for sale
oh, i can’t resist looking at them, i failed
the test of being tempted, i plea
Lord help me stay away from there, so it be.

III
glitters, gold, silver, diamonds displayed
a few steps forward it purposely deceive
people walking by unknowingly enticed
undivided attention now they see.

IV
temptation is not a sin they say
giving in to it, that is sin, please stay away;
satan wants you to play his game
God is good, don’t let Him get the blame.

Oh Tukso layuan mo ako
