I should stop expecting for greater things
Hi! I'm so pretty down today (sighs). You know, our hope was destroyed, it's the only thing that could save us from financial needs. But, now... It became a stone. From money into dust jeezz..
**What was that thing?**
A government had given my father an opportunity to build huge water tanks and it's surely profitable but suddenly it went out of nothing. My father already summarized and computed all expenses that it might cost. He even went to davao to canvas some materials, since they've said that it's already ours.
But then what happened? The government changed their decision. They are not going to give it to us, but to their friend engineer instead. We're so down today after we received the call from them (sighs).
Well, that's how life goes. But, I took pity on my father. He's so worried, he expected that he could make a better future for us, his family. I expected too high too! We are having so many plans and things to do, if ever we could achieve those contractual jobs.
We planned to build a house, because you know, train will going to hit our house if the railroad project here in our province, will be established. Also, we planned to build a small business as an investment, cause it's really a rare opportunity to have.
**Stop expecting**
You know when you expect for something to come or even believing in it to the fullest might hurt you. It is like a bird that is soaring high in the sky, then suddenly being hit by a lightning. All dreams are shattered like a glass being thrown. Jeezz it really hurts so much.
It's better not to expect for something to come. Than to believe in it but ain't gonna happen. Maybe it is not our destiny to obtain huge amounts of money. I'm pretty sure, we're going to earn thousands of money through that, if only.
Stop expecting and start accepting
Well, as we all knew acceptance is a pill, and it is the only thing to cure some sorta pains that can't be healed by medicines lol. So! That's it.. Just accept the reality that's those dreams is not going to happen.
I'm sad, will you cheer me up?
________________________
I hope we could find something better. I keep on telling myself not to lose the faith but it's kinda persistent, it's dragging my emotion down. However, as long as I see my family safe and healthy, it's already a great blessing that we had.
Thank you for reading guys, it's a nonsense topic to read at. Too fortunate, we had this read.cash platform, a place where we can burst out our feelings without informing our relatives and family, feel me? Haha Tia! Shalom.
Liability X Investment
Guys! Did you know? You are stucked with something that holds you more to become poor and less of this $? And ain't noticing that you've been doing the wrong choice? You're thinking that, you've made it into another level because you have this and you have that?
Well, guys! I came across on a video on YouTube about teachings how to properly invest your money. This is not a financial advice, but I know this would help you understand a little bit of dealing with this matter.
*Disclaimer: Photos are taken from google and are edited on picsart.*
**Alright! So let's start with the liability. What is it?**
A liability is something a person or company owes, usually a sum of money. Liabilities are settled over time through the transfer of economic benefits including money, goods, or services. Recorded on the right side of the balance sheet, liabilities include loans, accounts payable, mortgages, deferred revenues, bonds, warranties, and accrued expenses.
Source: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/l/liability.asp
Well, it's more on debts right? Or even things that you acquire which is not an asset or an investment. Spending your money for things you want is what we called liabilities.
For example loaning a car for yourself pleasure, is a liability. Building huge houses out of your money, without making money out of it. Buying expensive gadget over needs. You may boast on it, but is it making money? Well, no... Not unless you make it as a business. Like house for rent, a car for bussiness.
You stucked at it right? Mostly people tend to think that they're getting better. Because they had the latest thing, wherein actually they're not. It's dragging you down. Until such time you're going to sell it because you need money. Then the second hand markets would always be 50% to 30% less priced than the brand new one.
So in this case, you will lost a lot of money.
- *The larger your house, the more your life is in trouble.*
Well, it's okay to have a decent house if you had a stable income from an investment, that would surely make you boom. But, if it came from your daily wage, naahhh better stop it. Find a way to roll out your money first.
**Investment = Extra income**
**What is it?** An investment is an asset or item acquired with the goal of generating income or appreciation. Appreciation refers to an increase in the value of an asset over time. When an individual purchases a good as an investment, the intent is not to consume the good but rather to use it in the future to create wealth.
Source: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/i/investment.asp
There's really a huge difference between the two of em.
*"Make something out of your money or Make money out of something"*
*-****Vincent21***
Well, it's really a good idea to spend your money where you are going to obtain a significant profit in the future. This is what we called an investment.
Though we millenials could invest our money in cryptos, could be! If you're an expert trader why not? But still it's like gambling.. Predicting the future pumping or increasing of a coin, is kinda crazy... You could loss or gain. Well, I am not making you down not to invest in cryptos, it's a great idea too! much more when you're really good at it.
We all know that investment will take a lot of time, you can't get it easily just by the next day. It takes months or probably years! But, if you invest it right on something, it would surely be profitable in the future. Just be patient my friend.
**Things you can do:**
Raise mother pig and sell it's piglets. (Profitable) 2022's piglet price rose up 25% in the last 2019. From php 2500 up to 3000-3,500php depending on the breed of your asset.
Build a minimart/ sari-sari store
Build an eatery - (depending on the place)
As long as you're earning from it without losing the capital or asset is an investment. Just wait and it will grow time by time. You can add more of your asset if you want a faster growth of money.
**Application**: Now I'm about to raise a mother pig, I already paid for it and it will be released next week from it's cage. I'm excited.
I was once a thief
Hello read.cash friends! Today, I'm going to write a topic that is kinda embarrassing to myself. But, I won't be affected since childhood is childhood haha.
Well, I don't know if you guys became a robber or a thief. But let me tell you that, I was once an evil thief lol. We all know there are some reasons that triggers us to do such things. Maybe because of financial needs or you want money to have fun. Just like me!
But I am a good person now. I regret that I did those shameful things jeezz. Well, If you want to know what are those, please don't judge me. Or even lose your trust on me. Promise? Haha kidding.
**Coin thief**
I guess I'm 11 years old when I did this professional act. I am addicted to PlayStation games that time, but I don't have any money. What I did was to steal coins from my auntie's store. There's a duplicate of their store key, so I hid the other one. They can't suspect me since I am a good kid outside, but evil on the inside. When it's already late night, I tried to open thier store and it worked! It's so easy to enter since, there were only few neighborhoods. I only stole 20 peso coins, but it is still a bad thing. I felt conscience of what I did... So I never steal from their store again. And as a payment for my sin, I keep on helping them to carry their groceries to sell. Still a good kid eh? What do you think?
**Bronze master**
The title is so funny itself lol. You know what, bronze is too expensive when you sell it at the metal shop or junk shop. I guess the rate that time was, 170php 2.48$ per kilo I forgot. Well, most of Filipinos use wires as hangers for clothes. So my brain went crazy when I see it.
Well, here's the technique I used. I waited for the darkness to cover the place. Then I removed the electric wire from where it is leashed. After that, I pulled the bronze inside the wire with my hand. When I got what I need, I leashed the wire back from it's place but it's now bronzeless haha. Bad kid... Lol.
**Coconut boat = $**
Haha! You may not understand what the title means. But, here's how it goes. There's a huge coconut farm near the beach. There are too many fallen coconuts, but you're prohibited to get one. Since the guard was not there, I picked up the coconuts and put them in a sack. I was too nervous that time, because it's really illegal. And they said that the owner had a gun.
Since I am a PlayStation addict. I don't mind those rumors. I immediately carry the coconuts and I used it as my boat, pretty impressive eh? But, it's too risky.. Luckily the owner was not there jeeezz! I just sold them for 2$.. The h*ck..

Thank you for reading guys! I hope you won't get mad at me. Or lose your trust on me. That was a longgg time ago.. There's still a lot of sh*tty stuffs that I did..

Well, too sad for us poorlings. There's is a day, that I stole something just to buy us some viands and rice. I can still remember it. Just be silent, Until now my mother doesn't know where did I get that money to buy a kilo of rice.. Hhahaha. My father would really kill me, if he knows.
Do you like vinegar? You must see this
I came across on a video in facebook about vinegar. And I was scared the first time I saw it. It came from vinegars on street food vendors and even in natural vinegar. There's something in it that was seen in a microscope. It can't be seen in naked eyes but by zooming in a hundred times you can see moving and living eels. But when they're fully grown, you are able to see them with your eyes.
Are you scared of eels? As you can see, they really are the same as what we see in the ocean. I love to eat eels but not this one. Imagine taking or eating them alive could be dangerous.. What if they'll eat my intestine, or live inside my body? Noooo!!! Please!!
But wait! Please slow down a lil bit. let's find out first before judging these little creatures, who are they? And what are their purposes.... Are they really dangerous like, other parasite? Well, let's try to find out.
**What are vinegar eels?**
Vinegar eels are round worms we call nematodes and not actual eels. They feed on the live bacteria and yeast culture used to produce vinegar. These free-living nematodes can be found in unfiltered vinegar and are often raised and fed to fish fry as a live food.
Size: 2mm
Source: https://www.ripleys.com/weird-news/the-science-of-vinegar-eels/
**What do they do?**
Vinegar eel, or Turbatrix aceti, are non-parasitic nematodes which thrive in unpasteurised apple cider vinegar, feeding on the bacteria which creates the vinegar.
Source: https://www.darwinbiological.co.uk/blogs/live-specimen-care/vinegar-eels-care
Well, things are getting cooler and calm now. They're not harmful to humans! They are not parasitic, like what we see on the movies lol. Huge worms that lives on the intestines and kill people. The are just natural, and can usually present in cane vinegar or apple cider. They can also be used as food for fishes. Great!
**Are they safe if we swallow them?**
Well.. Scary as they are, they aren't harmful to our stomach. Dont be rattle if you ate one, just wait for a couple of days and these nematodes will just digest and excrete the same way where our poop* will go.
But if you ask me? Naahhh I won't. There's plenty of delicious foods in our fridge. So, I won't dare to eat it. I'm still scared to intake them, though researchers proved that they aren't harmful.
**Can we avoid these eels?**
Well, if you don't like eels, like me! I don't like them too! We can just throw our vinegars if they're already grown. And start again.. Usually they'll appear when your vinegar reached 35+ days in your jar. We can still kill them through the use of chlorine. But it's better if we clean up sterilize and sanitize our jar and just throw them. Pour a newly harvested vinegar and there ya go! time to dip our fried chicken, and any other cripy stuff.

Thank you for reading this article guys. I am not an expert about this matter, I just did a bit of research from the great researchers in each websites I visited.

I hope you understand something about these small creatures. Vincent21 here again writing informative stuffs. Let's keep on supporting each other! Shalom!
The time I realized that I love her: Last part
*In the middle of the rain, I spent my whole hour. Tears and the rainwater fell from my face together. And the pain I felt was breaking me inside.. That was kinda a surprise! It really surprised me! I just smiled, and started to move towards home with the flower and teddy. Wearing a cold and a wet jacket..*
*I just threw the flower on the cliff, and brought home the teddy.. When I arrived home, I settled my self up and lay in my bed. I just let the whole night heal me and the pillow to dry my tears up.*
*Well, few days later. I tried to talk to her to settle up and tell her what I saw. But, she just told me that she doesn't love me. She had a lot of boyfriend, and only chooses wealthy and a guy with car. Her words pierced my heart painfully. My thoughts about her was wrong, she's a gold digger and a cheater. So we broke up, she wasn't even hurt.*
*As months passed by my auntie was done with her errands. And told me that I could go back to my hometown anytime.*
*Since, I was getting bored in this place, I immediately grabbed the opportunity to go home. I missed my family and friends.. Especially my best friend,* ***Vincent*** *my closest cousin. I bought a present for him of course, as I remember that was a chocolate and special otap made in cebu lol.*
*But what is more exciting here is, my girlfriend Jessa. Should I suppose to call her my GF? Lol, I guess she's with someone now. I still love her, the feeling is still there. The girl that I left a year ago... I can't wait to see her, but.. It's too offensive and shameless if I meet up with her.. It's not a good idea. But ill try...*
*Well, I really saw her on that park again where we often meet. But, sadly she's with someone already.. I just gazed at them from a distance while sitting under a tree where I usually sit. She stared at me but, she didn't noticed that it was me. I wore my hoody jacket and mask that time, same as what I wore the day Julia cheated on me.*
***Now I realized that I still love her.***
*But, someone told me, if you truly love the person, you're going to let him/her go, wherever she finds her happiness.*
*I saw her being happy with her new boyfriend, I can't do anything but to watch them.. This is my consequence, and this will serve as a lesson.*
*Never leave someone abruptly you thought you're not in love with. Later on when you're away, it's the time you'll realize that you love her and long for her embrace*. Too late.
-**CousinJCB**
Hello guys! Finally.. He's done lol! That's what you deserved Jin! Joke. By the way, this was inspired by my cousin's story. I just added a lot of seasonings spices and salt to make it fictional.
Well, that was a long time ago.. He's okay now. I don't know if he had a girlfriend today or nahh..
Thank you for reading guys! Love you all.. By the way, the gift he gave me special otap was really delicious from cebu. I forgot it's product name.. That's all Godbless...
The world today is getting bitter
We all know vaccination is becoming mandatory nowadays. (Sighs) I know you already read the last article about my phobia of injections. But, I'm gonna take it! Even I'm scared of it. I don't have any choice. You fear? no gain.
But, this is not my real concern. What my concern is, the law and rules of the government. They're forcing people to be vaccinated. Staring tomorrow you can't go out without vaccine card or Identity. I'm really willing to be vaccinated. For myself! But how about the other people? Some of us here are still scared of vaccines and I understand them. Maybe it's a conflict with their religious beliefs or they had a phobia with it.
What I am trying to convey is, where is the democracy? My heart really wants to cry, why would the government arrest people without a vaccine? Is that ethical? Are those people without vaccine are now the criminal? I really want to burst out my feeling about this. Why they keep on forcing people? Are they trying to make us safe? Or there's something hidden in it.
I can't blame myself for being skeptical about this matter. Why do they control people? This is not a good thing. You can't even go out, even your health is all good. Even to buy groceries on the malls. You can't.. I'm really sad and disappointed on what is happening in the world right now. And I know you too right? It's getting closer and closer to what the prophecies of the bible is telling. It now makes sense... This is what would happen on the day of tribulation.. You can't buy anything without this, without that. But I'm not an anti vaccine person. In fact I'm so happy that there would be a cure or an immunity booster for this pandemic.
But the word RESPECT was lost. Government wouldn't care whoever you are, what your beliefs are... Obey or Punishment. You can only choose one between the two. There's no respect for your heartily decision anymore.
I'm sorry if I wrote this wrong.. But this is what I felt and seen in the globe today. Lucky are those people who are far from this pressures. They can still breathe freely.
What can you say about the world today? or the law of the government regarding to this matter. Are you fine with it?
Their goal is to protect the people with this virus. But they are losing the essence of democracy. They're becoming too powerful, and controlling you on your activities and even your work/job. I feel like a prisoner in my own country.. Can't enter the malls anymore without vax. People who are scared will really die in hunger I'm sure. That is why I'm going to take a jab tomorrow, even if it's like a chain that is dragging you forcibly.
There's no other choice for the sake of life. Let's be vaccinated! I'm just worried about those people who can't. Leaving them no choice but to follow what the government is emplementing.

Let me know you my phobias
I've read a lot of articles about phobias here in read.cash, and I guess it's my turn to let you know what are those secret fears of mine. I passed on @Athaliah 's post about her phobias and, we're kinda different when it comes to fears. She's scared of frogs and toads, well for me they are too cute. I even tried to keep a wild slimy frog before and fed it with flying insects, but later on it just scaped and flew away. Too sad for your keeper huhu.
We all know what is a phobia all about. So there's no need to explain further. It's the things we're scared of and stuffs that we don't wanna get on with.
Alright! So let me show you my first phobia!
**Tryphanophobia**
- What Is Trypanophobia? *Trypanophobia is the extreme fear of medical procedures involving injections or hypodermic needles. It tends to be more common in children and may lessen as people grow older and gain more experience having medical procedures and injections involving needles.*
Source: https://www.verywellmind.com/trypanophobia-2671700
When I was still a kid, I am so bold when it comes at dealing with dentists. I'm not scared of them. Until one time, I tried to take a peek on those children who are being injected on their molar tooth "bagang". I felt weak when I saw their face's expression in pain. I immediately told my classmates that I had a diarrhea and my stomach is aching, just to escape the hell that I witnessed. Until now, I still don't know what's the reason of this fear. Maybe that is why I'm still unvaccinated.
**Scolopendrphobia**
What is it?
*Scolopendrphobia or Chilopodophobia is the fear of centipedes. One reason is that many centipedes produce venom. Another reason is the number of legs that centipedes have could gross and scare some people. Another is they seem to crawl and slither at the same time.*
Source: https://phobia.fandom.com/wiki/Scolopendrphobia
I can't resist the tense feeling when there's a centipede near me. I feel like they will enter into my holes like nose, ears and etc. I don't really like them, I guess aside from their venom, they are also terrifying when they crawl at your body. Can you overcome the fear, when they crawl at your legs or back? for me? Jeezz nooo! Huuu.
**Spheksophobia**
What is it? An extreme fear of wasps.
You know what, let me tell you a short funny story why I am scared of wasps. Before when I was a kid, I am fond of climbing trees. But then one day, I tried to climb a Jackfruit tree, to get the ripe one. But, I didn't know that there was a huge house of them above. I climb and climb until I hugged it's nest. I yelled! Ahhhhh!! ahhhh!!! Then jumped without any hesitation. Luckily it's not that high it's only 11feet tall. It's still high eh? Well, they've counted the bites and stung on my body, it reached 43 bites and counting. Cheers for me! Are you happy now? Hahaha joke.

Thank you for reading this article guys, I hope you got an idea what are my phobias though it's nonsense. Lol.

Let me know your phobias! This is a prompt. You can comment down below or write an article about yours too! Feel free!
**Godbless you guys! Stay safe this time of pandemic. Lockdowns is on another level here in Philippines. When will this end? (Sighs) let's keep on praying for our safety guys.**
The time I realized that I love her: part III
*Hi Julia! How are you? It's nice to see you again! Hey Jin? As usual, She replied me the same way too.. As she was lookin for her needs, I keep on following her and treat her like Vip, since there were only few costumers. Sometimes I tend to do jokes and entertain her, to satisfy her day in our store. I didn't give her those things for free tho...*
*Several weeks later, we became more intimate to each other. We even have a call-sign named "bhai". We often go for walks and she won't say no everytime I ask her to. Till the day I confess my feelings to her. It's too obvious that she had a feeling for me too! So I didn't hesitate to ask her the gamble question.*
*"Bhai! Julia.. Will you be mine?" I asked her with confidence. "And why, Did you ask so? Don't ya want us to be just friends?" Julia replied...*
*" I fell in love with you Julia.. The first day I saw you. Since we're already close friends for weeks. Can I ask for your sweet yes? Will you be my girlfriend? I started to feel a bit shy.*
*Julia takes a minute to reply" Ahmm, you can't trust me.. I mean will you trust me? If yes.. Then I can be your girl....friend."*
*"Yes! Thank you! Julia...(echoing shout) I LOVEEE YOUUUU!" I was so happy and hugged Julia Immediately. But Julia didn't hug me, she just let me hug her...*
*Well, we became couples.. And I was so happy! eveytime I do my job as a storekeeper, I always wear the smile of a winner. Those huge Santo Niños too doesn't scare me at all.. I clean them up, brightly. Santo's are smiling now..*
*One month later, we are still too happy together. I ask her out on a date to celebrate our monthsary, but she refused and told me that we should celebrate it on thw next week because there's something she need to do. Well I let her decide whenever she want.. She's the boss and I love her so much.*
*Few days, later.. There's an event in our place called "Araw ng baranggay", which is a usual celebration or a culture in our place, done each year to celebrate it's longevity and or it's anniversary.*
*I asked her if she's willing to join me to go to the event. But she refused because she had a fever. I was so disappointed, since there are a lot times she refused my invitation.*
*Then I told her, "Oh! It's good to hear, I can't go too.. Since I had a fever. Cough* cough*". I really had a fever that time, but I still chose to go to the event to buy a present for her.*
*The place was so beautiful, there are some sort of fun stuffs like ferris wheel, Viking, foods, toys and more! The lights are cool too!*
*As I was wandering around with my hoody jacket and mask. I saw Julia in a distance. " Sh*ts, shoot! What is this girl doin here? I thought she had a fever." I didn't get closer to her, thinking that she might cheat on me.*
*I waited for a couple of minutes/hours. And sits in a distance. But.. there's nothing suspicious happened, she only sat there and enjoy the scenery alone. So, I assumed she's in fever too, and just need a place to relax.*
*"(Sighs) my love... You really are something eh? I'm so happy to see you not cheating.." Hmm wait over there my love, I had a surprise for you.*
*Therefore, I went to the shops and bought a flower and a teddy bear as a gift for her. "I hope she'll love these..."*
*As I was sneaking at her back, the tense is surrounding me. "Should I cover her eyes? Or hug her, scare her then kiss her forehead? I'm soo excited! Walk* sneak* walks*... while carrying the teddy and flower.*
*When I was three meters closer to her, she stood up! She moved forward, but suddenly she did something unexpected, she hugged another man... I stopped my movements like a statue..(breathes heavily).*
***Julia****: What took you so long? Hmmpp!*
***Man****: Sorry honey! Happy monthsary, here take a look! I have something special for you.*
***Julia****: Wow! This is so cutee (chitchatting).. By the way I'm Getting hungry honeyy..*
*(Slowly walking away together.. Chatting*)*
*I don't know what to do, I can't speak. What is this? I can't feel anything.. It's too painful...I don't understand.. (Tears starts to flow in my eyes), I'm like a statue here.. I can't move. I should move! Please move... My legs please... Take a step." I finally take few steps slowly, and sits in the bench where Julia sits.*
*(Thunder rumbles* lightning flashes* rains starts to fall...)*

Midnight fishing is fun
Hilo! Supposedly, I don't have anything to write for today. Because I'm too busy doing some sort of errands. I'm so exhausted. I should write this quickly to take a nap, (sighs) nothing beats our soft bed. It's the only thing where we can replenish our energy completely.
Why did I say it's fun? What makes frying a fish fun? Well, you'll find out soon.
**January 3, 2022 12:00 a.m**
Together with my friends we planned to go to our hideout. The house of @MrSmiley . To have some fun and buy some sort of drinks-foods. As hours passes by, we got hungry so, I came up with an idea. It's a brilliant idea, since the stores are closed, we just went into the sea shore to catch some fishes.
The photos aren't clear because it's completely dark.
I thought there would be aswang/ghosts/demons, during midnight but there's none. We only saw a huge bird above, it's a huge bird. We don't know what it was. Is there a huge bird that would fly in the midnight? It says, "kraaww, kraawww... Kraa..kraa! Then went farther. My friends just stick together like chicks lol.
**Fishing equipment: None**
We only used our bare hands to catch small fishes and only brought a bucket.
**First fish**
This was the first fish we caught. I guess this is a stone fish. We call this "Bantol". This fish is venomous when you got stung by it's thorns/spikes. But I'm brave when I'm hungry.. Sorry little fish. You're our first victim.
This is the largest fish we caught. A mullet fish, we called this "Banak or Gisaw". This fish is not venomous and sometimes eaten raw. We spent a lot of time to catch this one, it's too fast and evasive. But, it was trapped in a stone with small amount of water. So, we can catch it using only our hands. This fish usually caught in nets. It rarely eats a bait.
This the most beautiful fish we've seen that night. It's not fast and not struggling. So I just simply take a picture and let it go. I don't eat wonderful fishes, such as clown fish. Lol.
There are lot of fish that we caught. I guess it almost reached a kilo. My friend is the one who cooked it. We want to make soup but, they want fried so.. Alright.
**Before and after**
Lol! It's really different when you eat together with your friends. Everything will vanish for a short period of time. The left over rice was devour quickly too.
That's it! I promise it's really fun in actual. Catching fish using your hands is cool! Fishes hardly sees you during night time.
We're planning to go back again next week lol haha.

The time I realized that I love her - II
*Stretch..stretch* arrrghhh!! Whew. Finally a land! That was kinda exhausting out there. I never thought my as* would burn sitting on that wooden bench jeez. Hello cebu city!! It's a beautiful place, the beaches are stunning. Cool! Where shall we head now?*
*In a few hours of tiring walks and rides.. We're finally in our destination. I never thought my aunt's house would be huge and beautiful. I am the one who's about open the gate, but a huge dog rushed unto me! Gosh! If this dog bites me, I'm sure I will lose 10kilogram of weight lol. Well, my aunt handled it. Right after that, we entered to her house, and toured me to my room and everything. All is well and settled.*
***The next morning***
*She told me about the job that I have to do.*
*"Okay, here are the things you need to do. Your main job is to Clean the Santo Niño's and Santo Niña's. At 1.00 p.m you shall be ready, you're the one to keep the store. Don't forgot to feed doggy too." I will be busy these months..*
*I just nod my head and tell her that I can do it.*
*I did my jobs regularly, and all goes well. But cleaning the huge santo niños, gave me a goosebumps, it's scary to clean them when you're alone in the house jeezz. After I finished all of my house duties, I can't resist to feel loneliness. The sadness is in different level when you're alone. There's no one you could talk to...Whenever I felt it, I just went into the terrace and brought a cup of coffee. I don't know why but, I'm starting to miss Jessa... I remember the times when we're together, the memories, the vibes.. it's really different when someone truly loves you. I'm starting to feel the way she felt for me.*
*"Maybe, this is what she undergone, whenever she misses me." My heart feels heaviness, (inhales)..." I'm sorry Jessa. I'm so sorry (Tears starts to fall)... I feel numb when I was still with you. I didn't care about your feelings... I didn't know that it would hurt this much. I'm sorry for hurting you like this.. I wish I could hug you this time, even just once. To tell you that I missed you, that I love you." As I was crying, I just went inside my room and let the time to heal me. Until I fall asleep...*
*I was suffering the same feeling for many days. Love surely is painful and depressing. That's the time I realized that I love her. It's not that easy to cope...*
***Couple of Months later...***
*Well I'm starting to get over with the sorrowful days. As I was doing my duties as a storekeeper, there are lots of people going in and out. Until I saw a girl, that is almost identical with Jessa. My heart is pounding and I'm feeling nervous, I can't stop my legs from getting closer to her. So, with my full courage, I tried to ask her name.*
*The girl stared at me.. I'm not that ugly to look at, I still had something to be proud of, my stature, skin.. and I'm a bit handsome too. So, she was not intimidated to respond to. Hi! I'm Julia.. As she removed her mask gently, I never thought that she would be pretty too like Jessa.*
*I asked her address and she only lived nearby. She often, buy stuffs in our store for school projects, but she only went out on that day due to business. As we were chatting, I'm staring to feel happiness and all goes well.*
*But the costumers are getting many, so I cut off the chat and told her to be careful and come again..*
*I feel inspired since that time.. I always wear my smile, and boosted up my self-steem.*
*Few days later, she came back on our store again.. She's so pretty and perfect. Making me forget about Jessa...*

I'm so happy, I reached 30+ views on my life goals...
Thank you fellas!
The time I realized that I love her
*My name is Jin, 22 years old, I'm currently unemployed. This time was recently a dull and boring era, no cellphone... no computer... The best way to communicate is through letters. Since, it's too boring, I often wander everywhere, going to beach, discos, parks and etc. Until I met a girl named Jessa.*
*I tried to approach her and asked her address, then she gave it to me without hesitation. Though, I had her adress but I did not attempt to go to her place. I often see her in the park, and it's really a good opportunity to make her fall in love to me. Well, for a few weeks of knowing her, I finally got her heart and her sweet answer to my request. We became a couple and we're sweet! of course.*
*We always do meet-up at the park together every 5:00 pm. Since there's no gadget that we could use, it's the only thing to sustain our communication and relationship needs.*
*I never thought that she would fall in love on me that much. Sometimes, we went out for a street food tour, eating balut and dates. But the ugly thing is, I don't have a great feeling for her. I love her but, not as much as how she loves me.*
*Time comes, I'm starting to lose the excitement of seing her. We rarely meet each other. I never thought that the fire of this feeling would fade for no reason.*
*Couple of days later, my auntie gave me an opportunity to work in Cebu City.I am planning to embark on that job. And besides, I never feel worried about my girlfriend, I didnt even tell her that I'm leaving.*
*Finally, my time has come to go our separate ways. I want to meet her and say a formal words of goodbye, but it's already too late, I wasn't expecting that I will be missing her a bit. But I have to go and meet my aunt at the cruise ship port. As I was traveling along the way, my mind started to feel conscience. She's always appearing on my mind, so I just close my eyes and took a nap.*
*Finally, I had arrived at the port and look for my aunt on our meeting place. I found her sitting on the waiting shed, then we go together and boarded the ship.*
*As the we were sailing, I went to the highest part of the ship to witness the vast and deep blue sea. It's a fantastic scenery! I forgot about her that moment because I'm so happy andwas enjoying the moment! That was my first time to sail in a ship. When I was done, I went back to my seat and bought something to chew.*
*It's already 5:00 p.m and the sun is about to set.*
*I saw a girl crying... I wanted to comfort her, but I couldn't reach her with my arms. She just told me, ''did you forgot about me? I was waiting for you in the park where we supposed to meet. It's been a week. I'm missing you already." But I can't see her face clearly. She's getting farther, I want to stop her. But a loud voice was piercing into my ears.*
*Wake up Jin! We're almost there already! Come on, get yourself ready.*
*That was just a dream, (sighs). I wonder what Jessa is doing right now. That dream pierced my heart.. I'm feeling heavy and not comfortable. The h*ck is this feeling?*

**That's all for today guyses! I hope you enjoyed the love journey of Jin and Jessa. I'll upload the continuation of this story later. Don't mind the grammars, I don't use grammarly haha.**
**I'll do my best to finish the whole story at the next continuation.**
**This article was inspired by my cousin's love story. But I added something to make it fictional.**

Life's goals within the next 365 days
Horaaayy! We finally crossed the 2000 and twenty one! And now we are about to face the 2022. Anyways, I would like to ask you how's your night? Or how's your new year? Is it a well spent? Or a broken heart? Lol
**Disclaimer: photos are downloaded on google and are edited in piscart.**
Well, if you're going to ask me, it's fun but somewhat sad. I don't know what's lacking, maybe because I don't have money or we didn't prepare any special food for our newyear. Since we don't have a food bundles, I went to my friend's houses and cousins just to taste every macaroni and deserts. It's still, fun because we're a group raiding each houses lol.
So! Here it is! The 2022 is now open. We need to climb this steepy stairs for our survival and career growth. Especially, the viruses are still going on and evolving. Ohhh, my.. I'm so tired of lockdowns and prohibitions. I wish I had a power like rafaela! Healing prayers for you!
Alright, here are the goals I have to achieve this 2022. It's not just a goal, it's a life declaration. For you and for me! Yiieee.
**Save more money**
Costly in money, is my problem last year. That's why my december is absolutely graahhh, I only bought a shoes worth 5$ lol. The rest went to my monthly bills. I hope this year I can save more money in a piggy bank. Atleast 500$ perhaps. I need to save money for my future plans and business. Do you want to save money too? Join me lol, Ill update you about my total savings next year.
**Be resilient in every hardships**
In the past year, there's a lot of difficulties that I had encountered. Wherein I see myself as a weakling. Why? I easily do a self-pity and sometimes I'm hopeless in every trials I encountered. That means I'm weak at being resilient.
That's why, this year! I'll promise to equip myself with an armor that could deflect the arrows of dejection. That makes me feel down and desperate. Ohrayt!
**Stay alive**
Yooowww!!! This is the most important goal of all. Regardless of what our dreams and wishes are, to live for the whole year should be our priority lol. I know how reckless I am. Yesterday midnight, I almost got hit by a motorcycle without a light. I wasn't expecting that! Who the h*ck would drive a motorcycle so fast without any light, that guy was an idiot. Luckily, I managed to evade him within a short period of time, I just did a quick switch of lane. Whews that was close.
That's why, this 2022 I should be more careful. And aside from roadway stuffs, I should be more careful of what I eat. You know, health is also a good way to live lol. Avoid meats and sodas. More waterrrrrr!! Hahahaha.
Well as for my closing thought. We're not sure if we can still make it to cross the 2022 and proceed to 2023 (Sighs). But by asking God for protection and taking care of ourselves is truely an assurance that we can!
Hiiiyyyy! If you're still reading this, please stay alive until next year. Be careful, since life is like a flip-coin sometimes the you're in the front and in the next day you'll be flipped and be the back portion.
**We don't know:**
*Today we're so happy then it turns out to be sad next month.*
*Today we're still wealthy and oneday we're going to taste the dust.*
*Our health is perfect but on the next day it turns out to be sickly.*
**Enjoy life with precautions**
**-Vincent21**
**Loves you.**
I dare you not to laugh: Highschool best memories
Greetings my lovely friends! I was planning to write a new year's resolution for today, but It seems like I'm the first one to upload a reso if I do it now. So! I'll still wait for somebody to upload such article. I feel like, " *why would we care? Okay. Uhhh ok..*" That's just my feeling from the readers. But, my friends here in read.cash are good-hearted! They're not into criticism. I know that! Love you guys...
Maybe I'll upload my new year's resolution for tomorrow! Cheers!
Maybe you're thinking that I am a good student. Because I made it here in read.cash. Well, you're right! I'm a good student! I'm good at naughty things lol. I want you to know what I'm made of when I was on my High School days. So, have fun reading! Here are some sort of things that I remembered.
**Classes time is my cemetery time**
Whooaa! Creepy! Why would I go to cemetery during class hours? Well, as what I've said I'm absolutely the most behave student in our class. I'm alone sometimes, and there are times that my older brother will join me too! We're just almost the same in vibes lol.
The cemetery is not that close from our school, it's about a kilometer away. But, I managed to went there alone, it's really creepy! Because, going to school and spending your whole day in the classroom is creepier than the cemetery lol. Well, we're not just going to cemetery and do nothing. We just want to eat the rejected ripe bananas out there, from the villagers. And sometimes we go fishing, on the river and cook the fishes we caught. Isn't it crazy? For your info, the fishes aren't dirty, the water is somewhat clean. Then we're making fun of the picture of the passed away. Jeezz!
*Can you beat this experience? Let me know in the comment's section! Gahaha.. Lol.*
**Just like an assassin**
My father worked from a far place, and sometimes he went back home every Saturday. Since, he is away, we grab the opportunity to cut the class and decided to went back home to watch an anime. As we were walking while chitchatting along the way home. I saw Papa on a distance!
"Crap! Hide quick!" I immediately hide on a tree, while my brother is on the bushes. But I tried to calculate his perspectives, and I know that when he's closer to us he would surely see us. Luckily he tried to talk to someone in a distance. So I told my brother to retreat. However, to do a retreat, we need to cross the dark canal! But it's long and deep! Since it is our only chance, we take all courage and execute.
*"We don't have a choice! Now is our chance to escape from the wrath of Papa!"*
So we jumped together! I'm so nervous while leaping on the canal, thinking that he might see us.
Sadly, only my brother made it to cross the black, disgusting and dirty canal. I didn't make it!
*This is my final life! I'm doomed! - my brain*
The half of my body went all black and smelly. And I was still wearing my school uniform that time. My white shirt got black, my pants and my shoes. It's really so disgusting.
I thought my brother would help me, but he only laughed so hard at me! Haaa haaaa haaaa!! So I laughed so hard too! But my Father didn't see us.
So I quickly jumped up and got away from the canal. Then we run together towards the beach, laughing like we're losing breath. Pointing his finger at me while laughing.
*"Memories are like antiques. The older they are. The more valuable they become."*
*-* ***Marinela Reka***
Hi there! **Vincent21** here again, I hope I did make you laugh. These are real stories of my highschool days and there's a lot more! Coming soon...
Wala pabang nagsulat ng new year's resolution? Nakakahiya naman ehh kung ako mauuna hahaha peaacee
Am I picking the wrong decision? Work over education
Good morning my read.cash fellas! Anyways, I'm so tired today because of an activity we did yesterday. We just celebrated our 32nd Castro Family reunion! There's a lot of fun we had yesterday, battle of the singers, parlor games etc. But still I'm so thankful that we reached that long, together with our Lola.
________________________
Well, I'm so bothered today. One of my friend invited me to go back to school again. *He said "****it's not too late to retreat and quit schooling. We're just 21 and we can still make a better future for ourselves.****"* I like his thoughts but, what I can't take is, he's inviting me to be a soldier. Jeeezz!!! I'm not that bold to die for you guys hahaha. I become coward when we talk about risking lives.
Being a soldier is not easy though, that's why I respect them and salute for their dedication.
But, what really matters is our future. He's right, education could make our lives better once we're done.
***"A good education is a foundation for a better future."***
***- Elizabeth Warren***
For sure! Majority of people who are middle class in life are those who finished education. Though there are some people who became rich without educating but they are so rare and there's a low chance of becoming a wealthy one.
Though some of our bosses aren't educated, they became so rich, they had a huge banana factory, but still, 1 out of millions of people . They are the lucky one's. And I guess, they had their own huge hectare of land so, they had a lot of chance to become wealthy.
**Work as my priority**
As for my situation, I had chosen work as my priority. My father is only a house contractor. Hes not an engineer nor an architect. But he knows how to build a house. Making house designs and blueprint. He's not licensed. That's why his salary payment, is just standard.
It would be good if his job is regular. But, he could only get a job if someone wanted to build a house. As of now, we don't have any projects yet, and still waiting for people who promised us to build a house for them. Well, our debt is increasing in that case. No new building, no salary... That's how our life goes.
Last time I went to school, I was chosen as one of the scholars. But, later on it failed, I was removed from the list. The government chose randomly. So, it's so hard to keep up with my education with high tuition fee, being a working student can't sustain my needs. I also have a motorcycle loan, and until now it's still going on, Monthly bills lol.
So, that's it, I planned to save some money for my future education plans. But I just used it for some emergencies. And now, I'm back to zero. For now, I don't have any plans to continue schooling anymore.
**Time to think**
Well, I guess this would be my final decision. I may not be able to make it to my dreams. To become a person with profession. As long as I am living peacefully and conveniently, I'm fine with it. I should just fight for life and survival. Luckily, we had this platform! It's saving us from financial problems and it's true! For now, I'm using my earnings from read.cash for my monthly bills. Thank you read.cash, for giving such wonderful opportunity.
Though, I'm not a professional, still, I feel like I'm one of em. I'm proud to be a writer with basic knowledge. I am still able to use my lil brain through typing and by pen.
**Motivational**
Hey! For those who had chosen work than education, it doesn't mean we failed. We could still live conveniently if we strive to. Let's just possess hardwork and let's not be lazy. There are still plenty of opportunities out there. read.cash is one of the amazing platform, so don't be so worried. When you find a regular job, accompanied with read.cash is absolutely a double income. We can still live like pro's. Let's just be contented and never lose hope. Do you agree?
I'm quitting on this addictive game
Who among here have played mobile legends game? Did you ever feel addicted to it? Or it's just not that entertaining for you?
This moment, I want to tell you that this game holds me for a very long time. I started playing mobile legends since November 2016. There were only few heroes, I guess there were only 10-11 heroes that time.
There are times that I tried to quit and delete it but, I'm still going to install it again. I don't know why, maybe I'm really addicted into this game. Aside from that, there really lots and lots of negative effects of this game to myself and my family. Here are some reasons:
**Unhealthy lifestyle**
Well, I'm pretty sure it's not just me who's suffering from the extreme addiction of this game. I don't even eat my meals on exact time. I don't cook healthy foods, I just buy some soda, junkfoods and ready to eat foods. I can really feel that I am getting weaker and low in stamina. I am also getting scrawny because of it.
Sleeping late in the evening is one of the major causes of my pimples lol. I'm happy today, they're not that many anymore.
**Aggressive behavior**
Sometimes when I play alone, I am not expecting that l was becoming the person I should not suppose to be. I oftenly spoke out bad words. Sometimes, I yell to someone when I was being defeated on the game.
There is one moment that my mother ordered me to do something. But I never Listened to her words, until she became upset and cried. She told me when should I be changing my lifestyle and tell me everything that would make me delete the game.
But, yeah! I deleted the game. However, after some few weeks I installed it again and hid it from them.
**Bad relationship with my girlfriend**
Lacking of communication is one of the reason why I and my girlfriend, had a break-up. I don't care when she chats and message me, I just ignore it until I finish the whole game. Then reply something, and back to playing again lol.
Sometimes, even in personal, we can't do a proper conversation. I easily get upset and mad at her, if she destructs me.
**Time to ponder**
I realized that this game is driving me crazy and it holds me for a long time. Doing quarrel with my loved ones isn't good. Especially for a very shallow reason. So, I really uninstalled it! And I'm not planning to install it anymore. It will just make my phone laggy.
Now, I realized that quitting mobile legends is really a stress relieving! I don't have to think so much for my winrate, skins rank and more. I really let this game go. But still, I'm thankful that I had some friends on this game from different countries and places. It builds up my social skills in some ways.
It's good to waste time for something profitable or where you can spend your time to earn something than to burn your time for nothing.
I am really a mobile legends addict, 2 mythic account and 5 legend accounts. But, what makes me leave this binding roots is through read.cash and some NFT games that changed my perspectives into something great! I'm so happy I found this platform. So, I explore other websites too where I can earn cryptos.
*Are you a mobile legends addict? Do you have any plans to quit the game or nah?*
Please let me know in the comment's section below.

Thank you so much for reading this article guys! I hope you're happy for me haha. For 5 years, Mobile legends is now GG, gameover.
Travel time: Trip to Masdec resort the cleanest water
Hello guys! Vincent21 here again writing some travel blogging stuffs. Anyways, I've been inactive for 2 days because I'm really a bit busy, and also my body is tired due to some stamina draining activities.
________________________
This travel happened last December 24th, 2021. Where we traveled from Santa Cruz to Paquibato district. The distance is about 140kilometers. It's not that far, but it feels like you traveled from Manila to Davao. Because the weather is not good, it rained for the whole day. Of course, we're too wet when we get there. But still it's worth it.
**The Cleanest Water**
Why did I say it so? Well, I've been experiencing a lot of dirty swimming pools, 30% water and 70% urine lol. But this time, the pool is so much clean. It's really drinkable if you drink it from it's source, which came from a ground spring. The water is strong and could supply the whole pool. The water is regulating, that is why there's no urine and chlorine in in pool.
**Travel time**
Our ride is not that great but it's worth it. It's raining so hard in there. Making us to stop in each point where we could use as a shelter. You can really feel the cold and what's annoying is, your helmet lens is too blurry due to thick fog. However, it's still full of fun. We tend to do a lot of jokes despite of it.
**The destination**
Finally! We reached our destination! Masdec resort! I don't know why they called it Masdec. I don't care anyways.. What's more important is, the place and the view. I've been on a lot resort and this place is not that bad, but not the best among the placed I had visited. But I'm gonna rate the water as 100%! The cleanest and freshest water of all that I had swam so far. After swimming, I never felt any muscle and body pains. The water is too healthy and healing. Amazing!
**The foods**
We can't complete this outing without food! We just simply served roasted catfish! There's a lot of these viands and is enough to supply the whole team. By the way, we're all men that is why we had chose catfish as the special recipe. Lot of women doesn't like catfish, I dont know why. Maybe because of it's figure haha.
**Pool Games**
**Watermelon devouring game**
The first game was watermelon eating contest. Where in you are paired by two and must be blind folded. The first team who finish the slice of watermelon is the winner.
This game is fun, but later on it became disgusting. They put same grass on the melons we ate... Noooo!!
Rate: Loser
**Fill the bottle with water**
Sadly we haven't captured this game, nor by my friends due to heavy rain. The mechanics is to fill the bottle with water. Using only bare mouth without hands. Well, this is full of challenge and is somewhat yucky.. You need to pour out the water from your mouth to the bottle, with your whole team.. So, you should not be finicky jeezz.
Rate: Winner
**Carry me and let's slam them off**
This game almost killed me, huhu. I thought I'm about to die, I might not be able to see my beloved friends here in this platform. Ill tell ya later why.
The mechanics if this game is to slam your enemies on the pool. In any technique or style how you will throw them off. You should carry your partner on your neck and shoulders. The last team standing is declared as the winner.
Rating: loser
**Why this game nearly killed me?**
Well, My Father is the winner he's crazy strong. But, now I'm going to tell you that this game could be dangerous. I'm out of breath that time, and I really wanted to relax to breath some air but the 3 opponent attacked us. I am out of energy, leading us to fall down on the water. But the risky thing is, I didn't redeemed quickly to reach the water's surface. They are stepping my body below the pool's floor. I can't stand up, I thought I'm gonna die. Luckily, I redeemed and jumped really strong and struggled. I quickly get to the pool's side and relaxed for about 10minutes jeezz... Huuuuuuu. ToT
I guess that's all about my travel blog for today. Next time we're going to dive in to Samal Island. I hope all things will go well. God bless us all and have fun this Christmas!!

Simple experiment: How to make a fire lamp without a kerosene
Hey what's up again guys! Just one sleep and it's Christmas time! Sadly, I don't have any money left in my pocket yet, I just paid my debts earlier. But still, there's a lot of debts waving. Maybe I have to cash out my earnings in read.cash for tomorrow. To buy something, could be a present or a food. What's important is, we're happy of what we're spending at.
Anyways, tonight I just went to my grandmother's house and theres no electricity there. She's living in a home without electricity. I haven't captured any photos there because, I left my phone charging in my room.
I never thought, my visit had a purpose. Since she only had a little amount of kerosene left, I tried to do a lil bit of experiment which I had read in a facebook post a long time ago.
While the sky is getting dark, her kerosene lamp is about to lose it's light. So what I did was to make a lamp without a kerosene. I just wanna thank the person who discovered this unlimited lamp as long as you have a palm oil or olive oil. I never thought that it won't work, because I tried to light it many times but it failed.
For a several attempts and strategies, I successfully light it up. I was so happy that I made it right. Though it's easy to do but the happiness I felt is the most important thing, so do my grandma.
So! Just incase you're gonna need this simple experiment. If you're going in a forest camping, or suddenly the electricity goes down and you don't have any candles around? Well, try this simple lamp trick that will blow your mind. So, here are the steps to make it.
**Materials needed**: Glass, match sticks, cotton, and oil.
1. **Get a glass (transparent/clear)**
You can use a mug but it is better when you use a clearer one, so that the fire will shine brighter. I recommend you to use a mayonnaise glass jar. So that it won't cost you anything.
2. **Fill the glass with rice (75%)**
The purpose of these grains is to hold the match stick to stand firm. But they said the salt has better smell than the rice. I haven't tried it since we don't have a lot of salt. All you need to do is to fill up the glass with rice, enough to hold a match stick.
3. **Pour out the oil**
Here, you can use any kinds of cooking oil. It could be palm, olive oil, stock or used oil. But, I'm sure it would smell bad if the oil is used through cooking fish.
Simply pour out the oil on the glass and make it sure that the oil is over the rice (75% till to the glass surface).
4. **Place the match stick**
Before placing the stick, make sure that the cotton is well attached to the stick. Because if not, the cotton might fall. After that, place it on the rice where it could stand firmly, make sure not to exceed on the glass' surface to avoid winds that might kill the flame.
Important! The cotton's bottom must atleast kiss the oil's surface to supply power to the flame.
5. **light it up**
Well, just light it several times. It may not be so easy to light it up. But just keep on lighting it, even the cotton is burnt.
That's it! An easyway to empress someone. My mother was amazed too! She doesn't know about this. She said it's useful for some instances.

Thank you for reading this article! I hope you learned something on this post.
I'm glad to help, especially to those people who don't have electricity for tonight and suffered the aftermath of the devastating typhoon, I hope this helps in any way.
My friends are neglecting me: too sad for me
I had few friends, and we are really close to each other. We're always together whenever there are parties, birthdays or a bondings. But that was only before.. Before I became too busy.
We love to play sports such as basketball. And we tend to raid and challenge some places to gather money. Even we lose or win, we weren't blaming each other because we understand that game is a game.
I am the initiator of our bondings. Whatever I recommend they're going to agree with me. One time I asked one of my friend to get a duck from his small farm. He did it, so that we had something delicious to eat.
Everytime we play online games such as mobile legends they get boring without me. I am their damage dealer and core. They wanted to play with me as always. But, that was just before..
**Refusing isn't a good idea**
One day, they told me to join them with their bonding so that it would be much merrier. But I told them that I am busy. They only seen my message and didn't replied to our group chat.
Then few days later, they tried to take me to play basketball. But still, I refused to go. I told them that I am busy writing an article and playing nft games since I had a lot of accounts from different games. My mother even scold me why do I always wander anywhere. I just told her that " *I am looking for a signal, so that I could update my games and earning sites.*". Gladly she's not mad at me.
They tried persuaded me many times and ask if I am available. But, I refused them a lot of times. But, I didn't hurt them with words. I just told them that I am doing online tasks.
My best friend told our gang that " *don't let him join us, he's too busy now. We can't force someone.*". He thought that I was away and didn't heard his words.
**They don't want me anymore**
I didn't receive any updates and message from them anymore. I saw them post some photos together without updating me. They tend to do rides without informing me.
Earlier, I saw them playing basketball without me. They just look at me from afar, but didn't say any words. Even just "how are you?".
I guess they've already decided to make me out of the team. Since I am not a type of person which wanted to insert ownself just to fix everything, I'm prideful too.
**Do you have any advice?**
Well, what should I do? Since I am already busy looking for extra money. I don't have enough time to keep up with them. Should I leave them? Or go back with them? (Sighs) it's really true business kills. Maybe they'll find out soon why I stopped wasting my time, and instead make it profitable.
Maybe they missed me. That is why they tend to hurt me too. I guess. Is that really friends are? Or should I stay away from them?

Hello! Vincent21 here again! Writing some own stories and experience.
I hope we wont lose real friends because they are too rare. Well, they should understand someone when he/she is getting busy for the sake of future jeeezz.
I want to flex with you my cool sponsors. You can check their written great articles too! And gather lots and lots of ideas from them. Goodnight! Sleep well guys.
When God ran
Hello guys! How's your day? Or in different way, did anyone ever asked you, how's your spiritual life? It's so rare to see someone greet distinctly. We usually greet someone, *"how's your day? Nice to meet you."* Well, it's my first time to post a spiritual matter. I hope you will still like it.
Well, honestly, how's your spiritual life? Is it growing or just letting it fade away. Or else you don't care because it is not an important and prior thing to do. I just want to tell you what God's love unto us. It will always be forever and not fluctuating. Whatever your sin may be, God is still great and good, his love is higher than the heavens and deeper than the sea. The only thing we need to do is seek him and seek his presence. It may sound crazy but, walking through faith with God whom we couldn't see is surely the best thing we should do.
**When God ran**
The path that I was walking is dark. Yet, was only focused on wordly desires. I drifted away from God a long time ago. And started to make things for my own.
I don't care for anyone. Nor they care for me. I only love my self, and I find it so selfish. I can't imagine what's the true meaning of love. That is why selfishness tied me up so hard.
But then, I tried to reach out my dreams. I became the person whom I wanted to be. To be a ranked and powerful one. Yet, something is still missing and lacking from the innermost part of me.
I become arrogant and prideful. Leading me to become a suppressor of people. But when the time passes by, I feel empty and lonely.
Time comes I started to hate my self, since the humanity started hating me too. I can't find peace, and even a single one to help me out. No one ever did to enlighten me up, since they see me as an enemy.
I am getting sorrowful and alone. Sometimes I think of cutting of my life because no body loved me anymore. I need someone to lean on, I'm so tired and exhausted. A fortress is all I need.
But then I kneeled down and ask God for forgiveness. For driving away myself from him. I started to weep and please him to put me down again.
I feel God's presence is holding me. And in my vision, I saw God ran. He took me in his arms and hold my head to his chest.
He told me to stay with him. And come back to his home again. He lifted up my face and wipe the tears from my eyes. And with forgiveness in his voice he said.
"Son, do you know I still love you?"
This was only only time I ever saw him run. Just to hold me back and make me feel that I am still loved. A love that nobody can surpass. A love that is only perfect and omnipotent.
God did to run just to save me. Even I drifted away from him for a long time.

Hello! Vincent21 here again writing inspirational words. God is always there for us no matter what. He will still forgive us.
I hope you loved reading this article! I am the first one who got hit by these words. I really find myself far from him. I guess it's time to get back to his arms. By the way this article is inspired by the song "**When God ran**" by Phillips, Craig and Dean. You can check it out on youtube too, it's a beautiful song I promise. It make my tears fall the first time I heard it.
Levels of writing: Crypto currency graph inspired
Hello read.cash friends! How's your sleep last night? If you're going to ask me, I really had a good nap. But, I forgot to use my NFT game stamina. That's why, still my morning is a bad trip. I need 8 hours to fill up a full stamina, but I forgot to use up my stamina yesterday night, so it's like losing 8 hours of filling up time.
Anyways, we already know what is a cryptocurrency all about. So, no need to explain further, since you're way than me when it comes to this. The only thing I know is it goes up and sometimes it went down. Lol, hilarious. I am still a newbie, I don't even know how to buy and sell a crypto jeezz. I'm scared of trying.
Well, writing an article ain't easy. I thought on my first day of writing, I will never lose a topic. I thought that I could make an interesting writings everyday, but I was totally wrong. Some other writers here in read.cash are amazing! They're able to upload different kinds of article daily. And it is not an easy thing to do.
**Low level graph**
This level of writing is the easiest one. It doesn't require much effort and critical thoughts. Which will let you write for a couple of minutes. Writing a my-day, flexing a food, an event and anything related to your daily experience is one of the easiest way to solve your daily article topic problem. This level of writing can be compared to as the lower level of a crypto graph.
**Difficulty level: Easy**
- well, this is based on my own opinion about writing. I usually upload non informative articles, which is surely a less of stressors. No need to think more! Just flex your day, and everything that happened to your life.
The good side of this is, it's fun to do! Why? Flexing your day is fun and uplifting, especially when it's about achievement or your special day. Also, writing this kind of article would solve your busy day.
**The mid level**
In this level, our thoughts are getting critical and creative. We tend to write something informative that would require a bit of research. Google is our ally, I don't know where we could get an easier source of aquiring ideas without this. Writing articles like, motivational, inspiring, and some sort of short stories are leveled to as the middle level of crypto graph.
**Difficulty level: Hard**
- This is our favorite right? I tend to see a lot of informative articles. I know we all love to inspire someone, help them with their problems, coping strategies and more. Also, writing a short story is a bit difficult. It requires an active creative ideas on how to make a simple plot twist. I tried to upload short stories but I guess I am not able to write articles like that everyday. It's still complicated for me though.
The good thing for this kind of article is, It's not that brain draining. It will just consume 10% of brain juice haha. As what I've observed, short stories gather more views than writing a lengthy story which would reach 30 episodes. That is why I almost raised the white flag of my recently created long story, the promise lololol..
**The peak level**
We love peak! Whether it's a mountain, an ice cream or a graph. And that is what we've been waiting for! the BCH or any other coin token pumps up. It feels like, withdrawal time and shoppee time has finally come. However, we rarely see the rate gets that high lol. Anyway, writing articles like long stories, legitimate crypto related topics surely are pain to the *ss. And it required atleast 80-90% of brain juice I guess haha.
**Difficulty level: Super hard**
-Why this is difficult? Well if we talk about crypto it is not just the buy and sell or ups and downs. There are still a lot of branches with this that we still don't know yet. I guess my ideas about this is just as deep as a drainage canal haha lol hilarious! Well if you had a lot of understanding and ideas about this stuff, I salute your dedication to learn. It is not an easy task. Also, writing lengthy articles with crazy plot twists is surely a brain siphoning article. That is why, creating this type of article makes me cry. I created lengthy articles but most of them aren't finished, due to weak plot twist jeez.
**The good side and bad**
- The good thing is, you will become more knowledgeable in that specific topic. And it has a great contribution to our daily crypto life. I'm pretty sure if we master how to make an NFT's, perhaps we would have a chance become rich. Making digital art is still related to crypto's I guess.
And! Also, to those writers who are like a movie directors are superb. I tell you, making a lengthy crazy plot twisting story isn't that easy. Without creativity, the story may get dull and makes the readers quit up reading in the middle of the story.
These are my all own opinion. So, what do you think? What level are you in? Is it the low, mid or the highest?
**Self rating**
If I'm going to rate myself. I am only good at the lowest level. However, we writers aren't contented of what level we are in, we wanted to grow. Strive more until writing becomes an easy task for us. Ohh, when will that happen, writing without intense focus haha lol. Because, if you ask me, I need a quite place and stability of mind. Since english is not my major language.
Hello! Vincent21 here again. I hope you enjoyed reading this article. It may not be accurate and perfect, but I wrote it with effort and love.
Tagalog: How childrens sang christmas songs
Magandang umaga sa lahat! Sa ngayon magtatagalog muna siguro tayo. Parang pangalawa ko na yata itong sulat na tagalog. Maiba muna tayo. Siguro tapos na ang bagyo, sa nakikita ko sa post sa facebook marami nga ang lugar na nasalanta ng bagyong odette. Nakakalungkot nga lang isipin na, madalas kapag malapit na ang pasko saka pa darating ang mga sakuna. Pero, kahit ganito salamat sa Dios at hindi malaki ang naidulot ng bagyo. Kagaya nung bagyong yolanda last 20, sana ay hindi na maulit ang ganung pangyayari.
Ngayon, Siguro kahit kayo alam nyo na paano umawit ang mga batang nangagaroling. Nakakatawa talaga at hindi kami exempted sa bagay na ito.
Tagalog ang ginamit ko sa pagsusulat dahil, bibihira lang sila magkanta ng ingles. Samut saring mga lyrics ang kanilang ginagamit na matatawa ka talaga. Wag na nating patagalin pa, narito ang aking nakalap na mga lirika sa mga batang nangagaroling at kumakanta ng christmas songs.
**Joy to the world**
Joy to the world the Lord is come. Eneh versing versing. Whenevery heart whenevery room. In never ininature sing in hever ininature sing, ineeeverr! Ineever ninature sing.
O magsaya, at magdiwang kapag **sumilang** na.
Ang hari ng lahat
Ang hari ng lahat.
Kaya ating buksan
Kaya ating buksan
Ang **kwento** ng ating
Pagmamahal.
Haha, nakakatawa pala talaga kapag binasa ang kanilang imbentong lyrics. Well, ganyan talaga eh. Mas malala pa nga yung saakin diyan nung nangagaroling rin ako mag isa.
**Sa paskong darating**
Sa paskong darating, santa claws ayy ako rin. Pagkat kayong lahat ay naging masunurin. (Palakas na boses) Dadalhan ko kayo! ng masanas at ubas! May **kendi lahat bato! Tae ng kambing na marami.**
Ayy! pilyong dalawang bata na namasko saamin kailan lang. Haha, parang wala cguro silang trip, tumakbo na lang kaagad pagkatapos haha.
**Pasko na naman**
Pasko na naman ay katulin ang araw. Paskong nag daan tilabao kailan man. Ngayun ay pasko dapat pasalamatan. Ngayon ay pasko ___( silent sila eh, di alam ang lyrics).
Di rin pala gaano kadami ang nakalap ko kaya, share ko nalang yung kami ang nagkacaroling.
________________________
**Our coolest caroling**
May gitara kami ako yung naggitara tapos ang pinsan ko naman yung kumanta, kapatid ko tagahawak ng coins. Medyo nakakahiya rin kasi 16years old na ako nun, tapos sila is 18-20.
Unang bahay na aming kinantahan ay binigyan lang kami ng 2piso. Kakaiba rin kahit maganda yung pagkakaawit namin 2 pesos lang. Sabi ko " Uwi nalang tayo". Sabi nila starting palang daw, wag muna.
Sa pangalawang bahay. Napakatagal lumabas ng may ari. akala namin malaki na. 2 pesos parin. Sabi nila last nalang daw, haha malapit na namin i taas ang white flag.
**Pangatlong bahay**
Medyo creepy talaga ito. Nang magsimula ko ng patunugin ang gitara, mukhang maayos naman, tapos ang liwanag pa ng ilaw. Nang magsimula ng kumanta pinsan ko. Aba! Namatay ang ilaw nakakatakot talaga ehh. Pag alis namin, umilaw ulit ang bahay. Grabe ang creepy, o sadyang madamot lang talaga may ari haha.
Flex ko na lang sponsors ko. Magagaling na mga manunulat, maari niyo ring basahan ang mga sinulat nila.
Sana nagustuhan nyo basahin. Random topics na naman eh. Kasi, walang maisulat sa ngayon. Malapit na pasko sana wala nang sakuna na mangyayari. God bless saating lahat!
Goodbye noise.cash huhuhu... Forgot my account... Gg na dis..
My read.cash resolutions
`December 17, 2021`
`Weather: cloudy`
`Author: Vincent21`
High! 2022 is waving. Better think of a new year's resolution. New year's reso is important, whenever your leader asks you what would be your life changing ideas this coming year or even on an article a teacher is requiring us to do.
I'm really excited to write about NYR. It maybe easy to write but the hardest part is the application. I guess 1 out of 1000 could keep his/her promising words throughout the whole year haha.
But, today! I'll be writing a different resolution. It's not about changing eating habits or doing regular exercise to be physically fit nor about leaving sticky vices. This is for read.cash!
I really love read.cash! Even I'm only a month old. This platform really is amazing! Learning while earning is the best! This is even more than a NFT game! Learning while earning beats out playing while earning.
Learning makes your thoughts vast and rich in ideas. Playing would be fun too! However, it'll drive you crazy and restless like the NFT game MIR4 that I've been playing for months then had been banned recently.
Therefore! Read.cash is the best! I know all of us will totally agree! No rug pulls no heart breaking! This is read.cash...love ittt!
**Resolutions**
**Read more learn more**
This is my first resolution. I know that my writings are not likely great. That's why I keep on reading @meitanteikudo @Theblackdoll and @Oikawa 's story writings. They really are creative and sharp story tellers, thank you! I tried to copy you guys, sorry! But mine ain't cool blaahh hahha. So, this will be my first resolution. To read interesting articles and learn from them. Still hoping to be like you guys someday! I'm your huge fan.😁✌
**Tip to top**
It's not cornetto! Tip to top sarap! Haha, lol. But, Im hoping by next year Ill be able to be on top 50's. I dreamed about it last week lol. Just, tip more and we can achieve this "**Diamond of Generosity**" Yummmyy! I really wanted to have a diamond.
**Gather friends**
Lol! Honestly, I'm not this type of person. I am an introvert and moody. Sometimes I am funny or lonely. But, this time! I should take off this cloak of loneliness. Interact to more writers, feel close! And do everything that makes you both friends. Through this we'll be inspired to write more! Without those interactive friends, I probably stopped writing by now. So! Thank you guys.
_______________________
Hi there! **Vincent21** here again. What's your read.cash resolution? Feel free to write yours too! I'll be glad read it. By the way thank you for reading this shorty article! God bless.
The promise: part II
*We had so many plans. We wanted to have a baby and live a peaceful life together. Travel across the world and find a perfect place to stay. Two more months to go and I'll be starting my journey as a soldier. However, we still have enough time to treasure more moments with each other.*
*Henceforth, we go to a wonderful place for lovers called "Heart island". The place was great and perfectly matched for my plans. While we're done eating our dinner, we went to the seaside where there are only few people around. We sat in a bench together.*
*In a cold and starry night, I did something I thought she's not expecting me to do.*
*"Ehermm, Alice? You know, you're the only girl that make me feel satisfied and loved. No one ever did to, and I want you to be my first and last."*
*I kneel down before her and say. " Will you be my wife and my lifetime partner? will you marry me alice?" While getting something from my pocket. But, the pocket seems so tight! And I can't pull back my hand.*
*Alice holds my hand and said. " I already know what you're going to give me. That's a proposal ring! So cute, I found that on your jeans. I never thought that you aren't good at hiding something."*
*"Noooo...this should be a surprise!" I exclaimed.*
*"You know Heirro, with or without that ring, I would always say yes, whenever you ask me for something? You can't hear a single no from me. That is how I loved you. But I would love to wear that ring of course!" She replied. Then hugged me.*
*I gently removed my hand from my pocket. I get her hand slowly, and put the ring in her finger.*
*I successfully made the marriage proposal for the first time. Things are flowing great. However my phone rings in the middle of the special moment.*
*Rings..rings.. Hello? "Wait a moment here Alice. I had a call from the SF"*
*While we're having a conversation over the phone. I didn't expecting for a bad news. The embassy called us for an urgent training. And it will be on the third day. I feel weakened when I heard the news.*
*"Heirro? Are you okay?" She inquired.*
*"Yeah, just an update for our training. Nevermind, about it." I replied, pretending.*
*"Okay. I prepared a wine for us! Come on, while it's still cold! I put it with an ice!"*
*"Alright! Comingg!" It seems that I'm starting to be a coward. I really wonder how would a love be so manipulative. It could control your emotions and thoughts. What they were saying was true. A love is uncontrollably strong, it could break a hard hearted person and even make you a slave.*
*When we're leaving the beautiful island. We're so tired and exhausted. She even didn't wear her seat belt, and fell asleep already. So I did it for her. I never knew that she's a sleepy one.*
*While I was putting her seatbelt on, my arms felt her breast unintentionally. I can't resist to stare at her angelic face. I slowly get my lip closer to her lip. and gave her a warm kiss of love-goodbye. Since I know that, I will be gone in some months or probably years. I respect her a lot so, I let her sleep. And head back to our home safely.*
*I'm doubting to tell her that my flight would be on the next day. But I speak out to her with all my might and think of my words thoroughly just not to hurt her.*
*I woke up too early in the morning. I washed all the dishes, cleaned up the whole house and doing laundry. "I guess she'd be happy for this. I know she's tired. I should be the one doing these house chores for her."*
*When I get back inside the house. I smell something great.*
*"Hmmm! What is this smell! I'm getting hungry already."*
*"Heirro! I saw you woke up early. So I cooked something special for you! Crispy fried frog and roasted frog! Your favorite! Here have a bite.*
*" Hmmm! Wow! This is so delicious! Thank you Alice. You made my day!" Where'd you bought these? I inquired while muching.*
*"I'm glad you liked it. Well, I saw you being sad yesterday. Is there any problem? Don't worry I'll be glad to know it, whatever it might be."*

**Eyyy! This is all for now! I hope you enjoyed reading it! Salamat sa mga nag motivate kahit papaano. Beginner's entry for some crazy longyy stories.**
**Hi there! Vincent21 here again, thank you all. I guess typhoon Odette has landed, let's pray for the safety of our fellow Filipinos. I'm just sitting here in our terrace drinking a cup of milk.**
The promise: A soldier's story
*When I was a kid, I oftenly play war games. I am fond of playing toy guns and plastic grenades. To be a bold soldier is my dream. I want to save my country with my might and my life. And this is my deepest desire. My name is* ***Heirro Giraiya****, 23 years old, living in a democratic family.*
*When I grew older, I never thought that my mother would support me chasing my dream. She told me that, when I become a mighty soldier I should be prepared for everything, even to risk life. But, all I did to say was a sincere thankful words and an embrace. Never knowing her tears did to fall on my shoulders.*
*Few years later I did became a soldier. But, we never tried to be in real time battle. I was too proud of what I had achieved.*
*Through the fire and flames we've been through. We're given a year to spend time with our family. We celebrated for the achievement that I had just acquired.*
*This moment, I found alice through social media. In a few months of knowing each other, we settled a plan to do a meet up and a first date. I never thought that, it would be so awkward when you first met someone personally. While I was sitting in a restaurant, I saw a beautiful girl, in a pink dress entered the door.*
*"Wow, is that her? She's too beautiful."*
*I immediately stood up and do a gentleman stuff.*
*"Alice, you're stunningly beautiful, here have a seat." With a shaky voice.*
*"Oh, thank you! You're too gentleman! Don't be so paranoid." She replied.*
*"Yeah, sorry bout that! What do you want to eat tonight? " He asked excitedly.*
*"Well, whatever you want. I ain't choosy." She answered and smiled gently.*
*When we're having our dinner in a 6 star restaurant. It feels like t'was the happiest moment of my life. The almost perfect girl for me, is already in my side. I can't resist looking at her gorgeous face and posture. It's my first time to feel love so deeply.*
*9 months later, I never thought that we would be together. Since I had my own house already. We're to happy together in one roof without marriage. But still, I'm glad to be with her.*
*The days are fast approaching, and I'm about to leave my lovely house and beloved partner. So I treasured every moment with her.*
*"The days are fast, it seems like we're just together in days. (Sighs)" he exclaimed.*
*"Yes I know, but do you really need to go? when your time comes?" She replied down heartedly.*
*"(Sighs) I had chosen this fate, alice. You know, sometimes... I'm thinking of quitting on this role. Since I saw you, my whole life was changed. I become a coward. I, I'm afraid to lose Youu."*
*She immediately embraced me so tight. Like I never felt from her before. We're being silent for few seconds. Then I heard her cry.*
*"Please.. Please, Heirro. It's not about your status why I had chosen you as my partner. I have loved you for who you are! You are my everything, your voice, your smell, your character. I am so comfortable with you. So much! Really much more than you think. Will you quit this job for me? Please.." She replied tearfully.*
*I didn't answer her question that moment. I just let her hug me and I embraced her too. I never thought that she would fall asleep in my arms. When I stare at her beautiful face while she's asleep, I can't stop the tears falling from my eyes. I just carried her into our bed and gave her a comfy blanket.*
*So I went to our terrace and sit in a soft sofa. While gazing at the starry night.*
*Inhales...Exhales.. "What should I do? I really don't want to be out of her side too. I can't imagine her without me. What if I die in a war? Who would care for her?..." Gaaahhh! This is just my imagination, and why would I die? She's my motivation and my light. I won't die easily.. Tskkk! Better snap out from this thoughts.*
*As I was pondering deeply, in a couple of hours. I come up with an idea.*
*"What about marriage? Hmm and surprise her something when I cameback from our training? I guess this is a great idea." I promise.*
*Afterwards, I go and sleep beside her. Embraced her tight as what lovers do.*
