Kwento Ni Duoi Ampilan July 3, 2022 BUTIL Pagtilaok ng manok sa pagputok ng bukang-liwayway ay gising na si Bapa Abas.  Halos hindi natulog ang matanda. Malalim ang iniisip at halatang may dinaramdam. Malungkot ang matanda dahil sa araw na iyon ay lilisan ang panganay na anak, si Musa.  Si Musa ay panganay sa anim na magkakapatid at katatapos lang ng kanyang pag-aaral sa kursong Business Administration. Ang dalawang nakababatang kapatid ni Musa ay katuwang ng ama sa bukid. Dalawa ang nag-aaral sa elementarya at isa ay musmos pa.  Ang dalawang katuwang ng matanda sa bukid ay hindi na nag-aaral dahil kailangang tumulong sa paghahanap-buhay para sa pangangailangan ng pamilya at pag-aaral ng mga kapatid. Si Musa ay lilisan upang hanapin ang kapalaran sa kalunsuran. Tatalikuran nya ang lupang nagpaaral sa kanya. Hihiwalay na sa kanyang pamilya. Masakit man sa kalooban ng matanda na lilisan ang anak ay walang magagawa. Aasa na lang na maging matagumpay si Musa. Pagyayamanin ng ...

Lifted from FB Authored by Caloy Bueno June 22, 2022 Why are many Filipinos (particularly toward the more senior portions of the populace) different today ~ compared to during the years of the yellow rule?   Well, for one thing, those who are older now a few decades ago were younger ~ and striving to make it in life, therefore hard at work to improve their own lots (in the midst of rising competition pressures). They (we) couldn't be bothered with so much politics (which were also different then, more complicated). But the biggest factor was that there was still no really common channel or avenue of expression ~ much of the public discourse was largely 'submerged' or out of/beyond the public limelight (because the limelight or centerstage was always hogged by the big influencers/politicians or glamorous airheads and wannabes), so all the views and opinions of the public at large were "under the radar" whether relative to the leaders/opinion makers or to the rest o...

Lifted from Caloy Bueno #PagMayTime ~ A Meditation on Life (first reposted in 2020): Everyone has a purpose in life. Whether or not that purpose is clear to everyone is part of the lifelong process of discernment and self-actualization. The unending search for self-fulfillment takes one on countless journeys on many roads; along the way, one may find some special meaning, some bits and pieces of the purpose of one's existence. We may have our own idea of the desired destination for the journey of our life; however we all end up back to where we ostensibly came from ~ dust to dust, ashes to ashes...   Our existence in human society is defined and influenced by our individual strengths, weaknesses, our past deeds or omissions, as well as aspirations, plans and actions for our own future. We form society according to how we see and want it ~ but we are also formed by society according to the many forces that we largely cannot see or control, until its effects are upon us and we eithe...

By Vic Casq Mask is for slaves! Look at how white races are no longer required to wear mask as seen in the recent platinum jubilee of the UK's queen. But we Filipinos are to be reminded to remain indios/slaves by our very own government as insisted by SOH Duque, DILG Año, and the IATF whom are certified globalists' puppets. As long as the pagan king Philip's name still identify us as people, we hardly exist as a sovereign nation. High time to rediscover our true identity as people!
