Now and then
You bitterly smiled as soon as a white flash of light draws into the sky. You grimaced when you heard the loud bang accompanied by that light. We were silently watching the city lights from the top of Manila City Hall.
"Merry Christmas, Heart!"
"Merry Christmas, Sweet," you replied.
"Why so sad? Aren't you happy that we are still celebrating Christmas together?" I asked.
The sadness in your eyes were readable, despite of your smiling face.
"Nah, I am happy that we are still together," you uttered
"But why the lonely face, Heart?"
You take a deep breath at slowly released it as you held my hand tightly… as if your life depends on it.
"It's just that…" you released a deep sigh before you continued, "it's just that I remember how easy life was. How we happily celebrated Christmas and New Year with simple gifts and foods to share with the family. How things were simple. I remember how cool the air and wind breeze during the month of December until February. But…"
"But?" I asked when you paused for a few moments.
"But things rapidly changed. I don't know when did it start. Just like how the news, the world ends on the 2012 changed everything. That news scared everyone. Thinking that it is true because the Mayan Calendar where our calendar came from was just until 2012. But look around us. It's already 2019, and the world is still living. Mother Nature is still battling against man's abusive actions," you sadly said.
"You are right, Heart. The world is still alive, but Christmas died. Because people no longer celebrates the way it used to be. The essence and ambiance of it, no longer exist. The global warming spread rapidly because of man's abusive actions to nature. The trees that we used to climb were replaced by tall buildings. The fields that we used to play with kites does not exist anymore, it is already a subdivision. The rivers we used to swim where clear and clean water freely flows, was already as black as the night." After hearing my words you just nod in agreement.
"How I wish that time will turn back, where greediness does not exist. Where the word corruption was still unknown. And when all are living harmoniously and fairly equal in life status. I wish to go back on the time where the word contentment was the most valuable word," you said after long silence between us.
"It's time to go, Sweet." You stand up and held my hand.
A bright and wide smile spread on your face. The sadness is gone and happiness surfaced on you eyes.
"Let's go then," I happily replied.
Your body shines brightly as we step into the bright light that appeared before us seconds ago.
"Goodbye, World. I wish you will be love and care in the future," you said as we vanished along with the light.
Respect
Respect is a feeling like a deep admiration to someone. In this generation, respect depend on how you respect others or the worst is if you have money like them then they respect you. The people I admire and make me inspire to achieve my dreams make me feel sad about the word Respect. Why? Now that they have money, they have a good living or shall we say a rich one can respect the people around them if the living is the same with them. The sad and most hurt part is even we, there family, my father as there brother never gain respect from them even though we respect them so much. It's look like money change there attitude. So sad but true.😢😔 Why there's people like that?
Pandemic, that what we encounter now because of Covidvirus, and it sad that lot's of people lost there job. In every day loving they need to survive by making money for them to feed there family. I thanks noise.cash for them to gove us income, but there's a sad part on it. Some noise.cash user are so selfish and bad, they want only to earn and earn for there self they never help some. Guy's in this situation now can we help each other? Let's give and take in it, us Filipino people help each other. Small help can be a big help for some one. Godbless to all of you, keep safe always.

Depression
Do you feel or experience it? When i saw or know someone experience depression, I ask my self why they feel that and they do something bad? Why they are struggling so much, why its hard to fight. That's some of question i think everytime i heard, saw and read that someone have depression. And that question answered after i experience it. All i can say is Depression is not easy and not a joke. You can kill your self if you will not fight for it. I got depress when my 8yrs relationship ended last 2018. Its very hard for me because no one can talk, no one can advice you and so far from your family. Almost 1yr fighting for it but thanks to God he always their to listen. Everyone, always put God in your daily life, talk to him every day..
I just want to share it here.❤️💞😍🙏
Thank you God for everything🙏😍💞
You deserve someone who is sure of you.
You deserve someone who is rooted in Christ.
You deserve someone who treats you as a blessing.
You deserve someone who has plans on marrying you.
💞❤️😍 We all deserve someone..
Pusong dalisay
Namulat sa kabutihan,
Puso ay dalisay
at puno ng pagmamahal.
Pagkatao ay purong totoo,
walang mantsa ng kasamaan.
Negatibong bagay ay di tinatanggap
ng sistemang puno
ng positibong pananaw,
Kabutihang asal
sa lahat ay pinalaganap.
Banal na mga kataga
binibigkas ng bibig,
Salita ng Diyos,
ay ipinakalat at buong pusong
ginawa nang kusa.
Kawang gawa ay lumaganap,
bukambibig ng lahat,
Puso ay napuno ng galak,
Buhay na banal
ay niyakap.
Breath
Inhale, exhale!
A fresh scent of dew,
Touched my nostrils,
A mild breeze of wind,
Embraced my skin.
Inhale, exhale!
Let me take in the oxygen,
Up to my brain,
Let the carbon dioxide,
Breath out from my lungs.
Inhale, exhale!
This clean air,
That keeps me alive.
Inhale, exhale!
I thank the Mother Earth,
For sharing its blessings,
And made us live a healthy life.
Inhale, exhale!
Gone too soon
Gone too soon
left without a word
depart in silence
and leave this world.
Gone too soon
mission's complete
come back to heaven
our forever home.
Gone too soon
physically gone
but memories in our heart
will never fade.
Gone too soon
without saying goodbye
gone too soon
without saying hi.
