Get high on LIFE, not on drugs









Don’t Huff, Don’t Puff. Keep away from that stuff.


I wanna dance with somebody...

...with somebody who loves me  :D



I chose this upbeat song from Whitney Houston's (classic) hits not to imbibe the sadness circling around the net today. I can't help but feel sad whenever I hear magical voice via her songs played over and over on radio and teevee giving her tributes. It's just so sad too that we've lost another talent because of drug-related issue. So, I just want a happier note rather than usual. The diva has met her Creator now that she's gone for the final sleep. Had she been coaxed to the right path to stay away from her temporary escape it could have been otherwise unlike what happened now. But sad to say or is it better now that she is peaceful and unburdened of all of her pains and undertakings when her career had met the downhill slide. This only proves that we really are the captain of our soul. So, really drugs are hard to beat and once you are hooked on it the chance left is really very slim...might as well hold a banner that says...DON'T DO DRUGS, lest you end up in a war where no one wins the battle...always a loser.


>>>To the late diva, REST IN PEACE <<<


Am segueing here...
Life is too short, so if we feel we love the person as one of Whitney's classic hits...let us not keep it inside. To love someone is one of the Greatest Love Of All.

February to christians like me is the love month (FEB 14) where we honor and celebrate St. Valentines. Say the magic words...I LOVE YOU, if you feel it inside and don't try to bottle up your feelings.

Say it once you feel it inside. Well, I just did... ;)

“Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections.”

Guard your tongue!

What is the worst bad manners' thing a person can do?

Love, love, love

It's just five days away and it's Valentine's Day! Wow, this month says it all what's there to be in love. Are you in love? Am I too? Special someone? Naah ahh! Still looking for the right one to come...where is he? Well, I think not everybody, (just like me) will be having a date to be spent with somebody who is so special in our hearts. We all fall in love...some are so blessed to keep that love but to some who's been heartbroken, trying to find some sort of patching up that never work sometimes...some are irreversible and can't be healed too. Some find solace to find another love. But what is important and I believe is that...we should learn how to love ourselves first in order to find complete happiness. Not being with someone  would mean that person is unhappy and his life would just  go miserable. No! Unless one makes skulking and draws himself to melancholia, then he is just in trouble. Let us realize that not all things that we wish for ourselves will go nice and smoothly as we want them to be. Accept the fact that not all that we hoped for will be served to us the way we all wanted them to be. Some things are just not meant to be.

Just enjoy life with or without valentines! Hoho...if you are still holding your heart, just wait till somebody ask for it and be sure whoever will ask for it...is just as deserving. So enjoy and let LOVE rule the world!


Lol-lol-lol-lol ;D

Always laugh when you can. It's cheaper than medicine... :D

Aye, I so love tWitch...!

I am a self-confessed tWitch fanatic, just see for yourself why...



Stephen Boss a.k.a. tWitch has given dancing a different kind of swag and for me he is just so good & gorgeous...plus classic music really takes me back (in time). ;D

This vid is one I do play over and over again in my you-tube channel video. 

and this one too...


tWitch, you got my awesome 5 shining stars!

Note: Click off the music from my auto-playlist if you want to watch this video...found on the right side of this page. Thanks

Kind words really don't cost much...

We all like all that is good and nice and pleasing to God...quite impossible because we're human. So better if we can't be a blessing to others, at least don't mess their lives either. For just a single negative words you blurt out can ruin one soul. I do believe that if you can't say something good, just close your mouth and keep quiet. But sometimes when one is pushing you against the wall then you have to make yourself be heard or he's gonna shove you all the more.

And it's quite understandable when you go >>hey hey, listen... <<

Am soooo in love !!!

with my new blogskin... ;D

I want to win...

because I don't want to lose!

Difficult times have helped me to understand better than before, how infinitely rich and beautiful life is in every way, and that so many things that one goes worrying about are of no importance whatsoever...

>Avoid dwelling on all the wrong things you have done. They do not belong to you now. Let them be forgotten. It is attention that creates habit and memory. As soon as you put the needle on a phonograph record, it begins to play. Attention is the needle that plays the record of past actions. So you should not put your attention on bad ones. Why go on suffering over the unwise actions of your past? Cast their memory from your mind, and take care not to repeat those actions again.<

Wow, am done at long last...has given my blog-site a new and colorful skin. I like this better now. And I did it on my own now. ;)

There are some people who have a way of saying things that can shake us off the core.


I have no right, by anything I do or say, to demean a human being in his own eyes. What matters is not what I think of him; it is what he thinks of himself. To undermine a man's self-respect is a sin.
~Antoine de Saint-Exupery


Respect for ourselves guides our morals; respect for others guides our manners. 
~Laurence Sterne


Life is soooo beautiful....


And I've learned how to enjoy it, in spite and despite of...

"Violence in, violence out"


I've just read that once violence goes in, it comes right out. There is no doubt that when children are managed by using the threat of violence, punishment, or guilt, they will resort to violence, punishment, or guilt when they feel out of control as a way to regain control. Without a new way of managing and controlling children, they will become increasingly violent and continue to behave in dysfunctional ways. Either they will act out in rebellious and aggressive ways, or they will turn that violence inward and abuse themselves with low self-esteem. Either they hate others or they hate themselves, and often feel both.

PS/
I am recommending  Children are from Heaven by J. Gray, I tell you it's a nice read for mothers like me....or to all parents.

Justifying mistakes or blaming others...


When children grow up in an unforgiving environment, the children becomes defensive. They either actively defend by justifying their mistakes or blame someone else.

As adults, the only way we can learn to self-correct our behavior is by taking responsibility for our mistakes. As long as we justify our mistakes by blaming someone else, we cannot self-correct. Although we are adults, we behave like children who have been raised in an unsafe environment.

Keeping up with my children...

 It takes patience to appreciate domestic bliss; volatile spirits prefer unhappiness. (GS)

As a mother I cannot ask for more because I can tell the whole world that on that aspect of my life at least I say I am truly and favorably happy...honestly mine isn't perfect of course, though it appears that we are in harmony...in accord...and we jibe, there are times we have our own share of some discord. But becoz I want us to breathe the same rhyme, as a mother I have to be always in check with the agreement at home sharing  their passion, their fad, their craze enthusiastically so as to strike a good tune. If they love this kind of music I do try to involve myself more, if not I just try to be appreciative at first and in time I'd wake up humming it and then liking the song in the end. Being flexible and open to any kind of new beat is helpful and important. Like my youngest son who's into music, always try to get my opinion about something he likes most..."ma, pakinggan mo toh (just listen to this mom), I hope you'll like this one by Satriani"...and I'd go...wow ang ganda gusto ko yan (wow, nice and I like it). Then I'd ask him to play my favorite song. Then after a few days he'd be playing na the song I like most like last night I requested Hot Stuff by Donna Summer, ayun he played it na for me dexterously with gusto. And in return naman I listen with raft attention everytime he's playing his electric guitar. With that simple ways, we became closer than ever.

Sometimes we do have issues also but we don't make a big deal out of it and please...I hate lachrymal showdown they know that, feel like passing out when I hear verbal vollies, I hate that. I am not getting any younger so I want to make useful of the time in a positive tune and not to fret on small issues like if one doesn't seem like doing chores...I don't make it a fuss but instead I'd go...okey you can rest for awhile maybe you're too exhausted for the day in school. Just like that. I hate stifling arguments at home as much as how de-do situation. It just suffocates everything. And I hate that inside my fence. I want to enjoy and keep up with them and spunk up like they do. If I don't like something I'd tell them straight and go inside my room to avoid sizzling...and before I knew it the tension is gone.

For me now, why borrow trouble! Just do enjoy life, be productive and always be a blessing in your own home!

Trust is never without respect!

In my own point of view, trusting one person is really very hard, specially for those who are just starting to forge a friendship or a relationship. Trust should always go hand in hand with respect. Either of the two comes first and one will surely follow. Then love is not too far away. Love in any different level...whether it maybe love to the parents, parents to children...to a boyfriend or girlfriend. Or even to friends. In any different level of love. There should always be trust, respect and everything will follow.

If not...you don't have to expect anything!

Taking heed...

We parents can only do the best we can, and let the chips fall where they may, if only to give them the best lesson to learn and just always hoping not the hard way as the old cliche goes. We would always tell them "been there done that" while the children stays complacent until such undesirable situation sets in dot dot dot. If only children will learn to take heed of their parents advices not much will go wrong.

me and aya 2011 Japan
The video of a young Pinoy female talent whose career is just on the full swing has pushed me to write this. Saw or watched her in her intimate moments with the guy actually a DJ who had fled the country after the hullabaloo blown everything out of proportion and then the abortion squeal and blah blah blah. The young lass' pours her heart out and her disappointment after the videos about the termination leaked via you tube, now comes the videos showing her in uncompromising moments were she kisses the guy so much on the lips while she's sitting on top of him...oops, not what you think, but they aren't naked huh...that's clear. Now comes the video interview of her regretting what she has done in her life ad the best part of it is her admission that she didn't follow her parents advices but instead did follow her heart whims. I wonder I didn't hear any denial about the termination but whichever is true...now she knows well and am sure she'll mark it for as long as she lives.

I'm so blest!

me with my grown ups <3

LORD T H A N K YOU for giving me soooo much...all the good things that happened to me in the past hadn't been weighed down by some negative things I had met head on. Thank you for giving me strength and courage so enough for me to carry on. Still I won't trade my faith, my positivism and true incorrigible optimism that shield me and my person forever against all odds. AMEN.
