"HINAING KAY AMA"

Tula ni Anelyne Aragon Ruflo



Simula noong sapul pa ako
Presensiya mo ang 'laging hinahanap ko.
Sa mga panahon na galit sakin ang mundo,
Nasaan ka upang protektahan ako?

Ama, noong maliit pa'y pinangakuan mo ako
Pinanghahawakan ko iyon, kasi akala ko'y totoo.
Kahit pagmamahal at kalinga mo'y inaasam ko
Umaasa na sana, nasubaybayan mo ang paglaki ko. 

Ama, ilang graduation ko na ang dumaan?
Ilang kaarawan ko na ang iyong nalipasan?
Sa bawat pag-akyata sa intablado'y, luha ko'y agad nagsibagsakan
Kahit ang pagsabit ng medalya ko'y 'di mo nasaksihan.

Ama, gusto kong magtampo sayo 
Gusto kong sabihin lahat ng hinanakit.
Gusto Kong kamuhian ka sa lahat ng ginawa mo,
Ngunit wala akong nagawa, kundi ang  umiyak sa dulo. 

Sa mga panahon na kailangan kita,
Si ina ang naging sandalan ko kasi wala ka!
Sa tuwing nakikita ko ang iba kasama ang ama nila
Napapatanong ako "ano kayang pakiramdam magkaroon ng ama?"

Ama, 'di ko magawang magalit sayo
Ikaw ang dahilan kung ba't ako naparito 
Naging panandaliang haligi ka rin sa ating tahanan.
Nawa'y maging matibay ka sa bago mong tirahan. 

Mahalin mo nawa ang iyong anak sa iba
Iparamdam mo sa kanya ang bagay na sa ami'y 'di mo nagawa
Mahal kita ama kahit nasa piling kana ng iba
Salamat sa panandaliang panahon na ika'y aming nakasama.

DALAMPASIGAN SA PANUBIGAN

Tula ni Jeremiah Chavez Eufemio DALAMPASIGAN SA PANUBIGAN Sa lagaslas ng dalampasigan  Doon ko natagpuan ang kapayapaan Hatid ng hampas ng mga alon At banayad na init ng dapit hapon. Sa mga puting buhangin ng Panubigan Doon ko natagpuan ang karangalan Sa matapat na araw ng pangingisda Nang dumaong ang kanilang bangka sa dalampasigan Salat man sa karangyaan ng modernong pamumuhay Sagana naman sa kasiyahan at kapayapaan Kay gandang pagmasdan, kay sarap balikan Ang dalampasigan sa Panubigan.

UNSWERVING SERVICE TO HUMANITY

15 August 2024 THANK YOU FOR THE LEARNING, LESSONS & MEMORIES By Duoi Ampilan  Since 01 August 2024, I officially ended my deployment in Ukraine. Though short (4 months), my deployment was among the toughest, most challenging and most difficult. The last 45 days were among the things I would never wish for. Ukraine was my 14th country of deployment and the 24th country I traveled to.  After all the twists, turns, trials, tensions and torments, I am feeling tired.  Being a Humanitarian Worker is said to be among the Most Dangerous Jobs because of the associated risks and uncertainties aside from the daily stress & tensions. Where there are calamities and crises from disease outbreaks to earthquakes, displacements to war and devastation, humanitarian workers are there. We offer our services, our time, talents and for some our lives!  We also have the fair share of the things that make us love our work - the opportunities of reaching many places of historical im...

Kennedy Jr. details how the NSA was in charge of Operation Warspeed's COVID-19 mRNA vaccines, the history of the United States bioweapons program, and why Anthony Fauci is the highest-paid government official in history: "The weird thing about the pandemic was this constant involvement by the CIA, the intelligence agencies, and the military. When Operation Warp Speed made its presentation to the FDA committee called VRBPAC. When Warp Speed turned over the organizational charts that were classified at the time, it ...
