    Never regret the choices you make,just believe in yourself and have faith.Life is not perfect.Its a blend of joy and sorrow.But whatever it may lead you,its because of a purpose.. (nashare ko lang quote na ito)

    One must have a certain assertiveness to get about in life. There are many who say, "Bahala na ang Diyos". Yet, they seem to forget the other saying, "God helps those who help themselves". Although I'm Catholic like most Pinoys are, I'm also a realist. When I dig myself into a hole, it's up to me to dig myself out of it. Once I'm free, then I thank God for everything.

    Some other sayings I go by in life:
    * Love may make the world go around, but it doesn't pay the bills.
    - Sad but true. Unless you live in trees out there in the jungle,
    you're going to have to earn a living in order to survive.

    * Live within your means
    - Too often, I've seen people get themselves into heavy debt
    trying to live a materialistic lifestyle they can't really afford.
    I'm not saying don't. But, you need to have your priorities
    straight. When I used to live in the squatter area in Binakayan
    Cavite, I had an uncle (in-law) who spent his daily wages on
    liquor and cigarettes instead of putting food on the table. He
    also spent most of his time just being "istambay" at street
    corners with other street toughs. He's also made a bunch of
    kids (my cousins) and left my aunt to care for them. Whenever
    my aunt would admonish him, he would drag her back in the
    house and beat her up. It went on for many years. But, he died
    not too long ago. His example shaped everything of what I
    didn't want to be and stressed the importance of having a job
    as a means and living within that means...... I pray I never end
    up like he did.

    the only things you can control are your choices.

    God sucks minsan,isip ko lan, kase there are times no matter how hard you pray nothing happens at all... i read from a book that God is just an imaginary friend for older people just to make them feel safe to explain things they cant explain and to make them see na there is something to look forward to after death...when in scientific terms there is not

    Faith is really challenging if you can see,minsan pag may problema sasabihin sau magdasal ka lan magiging ok... pagkatapos ng mahabahabang pagdadasal nyak walang nangyari tapos eto na naman c lola sasabihin " eh iha hindi talaga para sau kaya hindi binigay" eh bakit pa ako nagdasal

    whew, i really need my faith back.

    "when pain and misery outweighs joy...death is a gift"...i believe this is true.

    when i lost mine..i never wanted it back...makes life easier.

    prayers have a 1% success rate...just basing from what i know and what i observed....and try observing a cancer patient..you'll know what i mean.

    what makes other people special that their prayers are answered?...nothing really..they are the ones who talked to themselves and worked for what they have asked.

    prayer is a tool for some.....just don't expect every prayer will be answered 'cause you are merely talking to yourself.


    peace bro.

    Baligtad tayo. With my faith everything is easier.

    Not all prayers are answered. Think of it this way. Yung pinagdadasal ba naten eh makakabuti sa ten? For all you know God already answered your prayer by not giving you what you wanted.

    daming miracles...nung grumaduate ako sa high school and college, nung sinagot ako ng misis ko, .

    seriously though, there are miracles all around us, we just stopped looking. when my child was born, i consider that a miracle. when my wife and mom survived cancer...i could go on and on.
