DATING 101 By -MDS-

What is dating? DATING is a stage where in you get to meet people of all folks of life. But usually we date because we want to discover things that we haven’t recognize. These are the qualities we develop and apply. I started dating when I was 21 years old. At first, I thought it was just a getting to know stage then you end up being friends. Yes, that is true in some but normally, when a man likes a woman, they show it.  Ladies, here is an example, when you first date a man, and you notice that he has a great smile and has a consistent smile, this means that this man really likes you. This is according from my cousin’s point of view. 70%-80% positive that this man likes you.

DATING is also a stage of dealing with people. Where to meet the one for you?

1.) Go to mass. When you attend mass, it is nice to join the choir, because it is a better place to start to mingle and bond with new set of  friends. From there, you develop friendships then it could lead to the next level which is the getting to know stage. Getting to know stage is an event in your life where in two agreed parties starting to date.

2.) Join school activities.

3.)Attend out reach programs. Like helping BANTAY BATA, Kapus palad. A good start in making new friends and new relationships.

4.) Join contests. For instance, you love to sing. Then join a singing contest. Join any contest that you like and you shall discover the beauty of art.

5.) Know your Neighbours. Introduce yourself. Not too friendly but just be yourself. Get to know who are the people in your neighbourhood.

6.) Join environment enrichment programs.

7.) START a new hobby. You will gain more friends.

8.) Start doing exercise. Exercise is the key to a good health. Yoga is an example of an exercise.

SEASON OF LENT

  What makes Lenten Season special?  If we look back in the past, how does a catholic celebrate it? Do they live with the gospel? Do they propagate their beliefs to other people? Do they display their love of country? Do they give and take when driving? So many questions yet why is there a celebration of lent. I believed that God has a humourous side because he touches our heart in the least expected times. This year 2008, my family went to mass at forbes to celebrate PALM SUNDAY. There were a lot of people there. There were rich people of course, celebrities, choir and all folks of life. But, as, I flashed back, it made me ponder that life is so beautiful. Life has its way of giving us life. Though, sometimes, we doubt our faith in him because, what we wished for wont come true. But reflecting back, if you continued to pray, you see how Jesus Christ can mold you to be a better person. I don’t know why did it happen. It just happened. Reasons and answers unfolds the beauty how he loves his creation. I firmly believed that going to him and being closer to him makes a good bond between families. I saw families who were intouch with one another. But,how can we go back to God if we dont know how to forgive ourselves? Forgiveness first is the key to acceptance. When there is acceptance there is tranquility. Tranquility means peace. And ,when you have peace in your hearts, you have  love. So from all these adjectives I presented, I hope that at least we move back in time and try to understand the meaning of lent and how Jesus Christ can touch our lives.

APPRECIATING YOUR INNER SELF

Having sense of humor is good. It lights up the face and the whole body follows. Knowing yourself is the key to growth. It would take years until you finally discover the beauty inside you. I dont believed that looks is important than the inner beauty. Remember the story of ” BEAUTY AND THE BEAST”. This story is created by DISNEY. You would learn that beauty can distract things. Thus every person appreciates beauty. But as we go back to the story, Beast entertain an old lady. The old lady is asking if she could have something from the BEAST/PRINCE. The results were different,the BEAST/PRINCE ignored her. So a sprinkle of MAGIC, the old beggar became a fairy. Why am I saying these? Because I believed that a person has bad and good qualities. We learn from our mistakes.From mistakes we find ways to be the best that we could be.

So if you see something bothering you wheter good or bad, reflect and sit back, relax and you’ll see. You will appreciate the inner you.

8

8. Observation is the first step in making Scientific experiments. When you observe, you see a lot. You could conclude and make a summary out of it. Thus, not all observations are true. In life, 8 is like a cycle. It goes up then turn right forming an arc followed by another arc. That is why a circle is composed of a radius and a diameter. Now what is the connection between radius and the diameter. Let me tell you the beliefs of the Chinese dynasty. They believed that 8 is lucky because it has no end points and no corners. In money making, 8 is used as interpretation of luck. An example is a frog. A FROG is one element that can bring the company/ business in full circle. Now we go back now to circle. What is number 8 composed of? Going back to the diameter and radius. The answer would be that 2 circles forming a diameter that is equal to 2 radii. In life, what we learn from school, friends, family will bring us closer to God. Because without God, we won’t have teachers. And MAN won’t be a MAN, if there are no good teachers. It is like the saying "What goes around, comes around".But to make things simple. We have to greet every person we meet a "Have a nice day" that can transform a face into a happy face! and  that is a symbol of sMILEY!

A life without toppings won’t make a better person

To live life with all your heart open, will bring joy to the soul. To live life without love, will make life burden. To live with the truth brings hope. To live a lie brings suffering. To live with forgiveness will bring peace. To live life with pride will bring brokenness of the soul. Life has a purpose. Life itself has its own cirlce of learning. Life has its way of touching the inner being. Life molds the foundation of a person. God created man in order to be disciples. God created woman to remind us the good example of Mama Mary’s purity. So, thus, God created Man, to share his role as a provider and make life meaningful. Being a follower of Christ is an example. Woman, on the other hand, delivers the proper teaching of becoming a better person. It has been said that doing good things can be reflected through the well - being of the person. The act of doing good can bring truth and direction. It is important to do good as often as remembered. Doing good deeds brings us closer to God. Every move, decision we make is crucial on a daily basis.

At any rate, good deeds can have a good result. It is like collecting star stamps in pre-school. Be humble.  Learn to forgive. It will make you feel good. As they would say. ” if you do good, you feel good”. A new beginning is a new hope.

Deadly or Heavenly

Let me give you a private talk. It is only between the two of us. This story is about a person who wants to discover his life. The learning possibilities of a person can be unique. The story goes like this.

A man was alone in the corner of busy streets. People are staring at him. His name is Adler. They don’t know his real name and where he came from. A stranger passed by and asked him: ” You know it is dark here and do you know what time it is?”. Then Adler replied:” I don’t know much about it Sir. I guess I am lost”. I wasn’t able to sleep for the past days and little do I know how I can find a place to stay.

Then the friend of the stranger asked him and said:”Hey Sir! if you said you weren’t able to sleep. Then how come by looking at you, seems like you had a good sleep.

On the Otherhand, Adler did not know, that these two persons were just fooling him. They wanted to know how  a person can gets up depsite he didn’t have enough sleep. A reflection that there is a  reason that for every person in this planet,  people can make decisions and can make things work through the ability of perceiving things.
