facing the monster

It's all dark and sticky, the air is so moist...I can feel critters crawling between my legs...

I feel so wet, so alone...I turned back to see if someone was there to back me up. Hoping that someone could've been there and was there assuring me that I have someone with me in this battle...there was none...
Thoughts are racing within my head. Running round and round like cat and mouse, dog and cat, whip and dog,...cheese and butter...

What I am doing, I am wasting my time...I am standing in this sticky situation...facing a monster, towering like an immovable mountain. His big and red eye looking down at me...He looks like he is ready to devour me at any second now...I feel the stench of his breath...I don't wanna smell his breathe, but I am stuck...and I have no choice but to smell the horrible odor.

His razor sharp teeth has these weird critters with dozens of eyes and multiple hands attached to their bodies. I feel so oozy just by looking and thinking about them...and yet I am here all alone facing this giant...facing this thing...facing this...monster.

Why was I so stupid...to get myself into this situation? Why was I so eager to follow the sweet, and alluring scent that this monster seduced me with? Why was I so blind to follow its beautiful back, drooling like a dog, without seeing its disgusting face? Why was I so lazy and stubborn to listen to the people around me warning me about this monster...why? Why did I fell for its beautiful, promising and lying words of happiness...

Just then, a bright light shone from behind me. I tried to look but I was blinded by the light...by the radiant light that gives a positive energy. I was not able to see through the light and yet I can see a man...yes a man...A shining man, but a human being none the less...As I tried to look closer, this man was walking...he was walking towards me...he looks wounded, I see a lot of blood dripping from his sides and his hands. It looks like he is really suffering very harshly, but still he keeps on walking towards me.

I saw the monster, it was now beginning to act violent, like it was very afraid of this man and at the same time angry at him. The monster's eyes are now beginning to glow darker, a darker shade of red...then he ROARED!!! Yes he roared like a lion, an elephant and all the scary things you could think off...Its roar sounds like a thousand of souls. Suffering souls, screaming in despair...screams that makes you feel, sad, scared, hopeless and dead at the same time...

By this time I was trembling...I could not face this monster anymore and yet I am here stuck between this wounded man who seems to weak to fight the monster, and this huge monster...looking at me and at the man like he was going to eat me alive...that was then...

The man rushed towards me and hugged me...and I felt...Love...the monster started screaming and attacking in rage....he started biting the man, tearing his wounds and slashing his back...and yet the man stood firm on his ground...hugging me...protecting me from the monster...He was crying, but at the same time smiling...

I cried...tears dropped from my eyes like rainfall on a sunny day...I felt all the energy drained out of me...and yet strong and love, because this man was hugging me despite all the odds...The monster is now growing weaker every blow...it seems that the blood of the man is reacting violently against the monster...it seems like the blood of this man is like acid, burning the monster....

The monster stopped attacking now and started crying and wimping...It started talking! And told the man every single bad thing that i have done...he was ACCUSING ME!!! Who was this man!?!? what kind of monster is this??? I felt embarrassed and scared at the same time...I felt dirty because all of the monster's words are true...but still this man continues to hug me...he continues to hug me...

By this time the monster stopped...he was defeated, wounded and weak...he now turned his back and started walking towards the dark edges of the path...after 3 minutes his smell was gone...the battlefield was a mess, full of the monster's dirt and the man's blood...

But still this man continues to hug me....he doesn't want to let go of me...

The I asked him...why did you do all of those things for me???


Then he answered...


Because I forgive you...


I love you

PS1- Original story yan ahhahaha :D inspired lng magsulat! God Bless

So hardd :)

Yea the blog title says it all, it is hard...

It's hard...
to stand up for something you believe in when it's something that you don't want to believe in...
to be a Kuya to all, if you can't even a kuya to yourself
not to complain on the hardships of life
to pray every single day as if nothing's wrong
to stay strong in the face of a giant monster of challenges
to stand up and to face your fears
to show that you are a strong leader
to be a holy person
to be faithful to our God
to be me
to stay committed for 7 years
to walk your talk
be like Jesus
to die for yourself...

There are a lot of things that we could complain and use as an excuse to God on the hardships of our lives...but one thing's for sure...

it was surely really hard for him, a perfect God who did nothing wrong but love his creation, to die on a cross, be spitted upon, and yet still had the courage and love to hug the cross...as if it was not a curse but rather a blessing...he considers us as his blessings and those hardships didn't matter...no they didn't


but none the less it was hard...

Jesus didn't say that it would be easy...

but he promised us that it'll be worth it :)

he didn't give up...he didn't

Being ready

We had worship at Oblation Grounds just hours before I decided to type in this blog again :)

The worship was amazing, and is really amazing. It started out with 0 plans, 0 directions and 0 hope. But God has other plans, he made us realize the simple things in life, the common things in life that we face day to day. The normies that we encounter in each day of our lives, the things we take for granted...He made us realize that all of this things were allowed by him to happen...because we are ready...

Read my lips...God will not allow something to happen to us, whether good or bad, a blessing or a challenge, if we're not ready to handle it. That's how much he knows us. There are times that he already knows and is saying that we are indeed ready, but we ourselves are denying it, and even questioning his will for us :)

The worship was amazing, it just made all of us realize, how Great our God is...How big he is, and how he made every thing that surrounds us just to make us happy. That's how great he is, that's how much he has loved us...

Personally, the worship made me realize


God never gave up on me, that's why I must not give up on him or his people :)

every chance I get

its a weird thing...for me to study that hard...cause I am not that kind of study person...:D

but people told me it has to change, I am now a UPan, people have high expectations for me getting inside UP, heck I myself am surprised that I passed the UPCAT, it was like meatballs falling from the sky...

people, teachers, friends talk about different styles of studying...but I just can't seem to be happy reading, highlighting things, taking notes...I hate these boring stuff...so I devised a new way to study :D

and it involves with me being in front of the computer typing :) somehow typing soothes me, and makes me feel that I am making sense into this studying stuff :)

hoping to study every chance that I get one :D

Complain Much?

Feel like ranting? Feel like complaining how hard life is? Feel like rambling about how people don't understand you? Feel like tearing up because people who are close to you are going to seperate ways? Feel like life is hard, and why is it so hard? We teens often do this...we often do...

We always have lots of things to complain about. From the moment we open our eyes, that moment shall determine how we would determine the new day that is set before us. If we complain, then the day would be ending up as a disaster. It's funny...

It's funny that 90% of the 30-40 Blogs I read  a day is about complaining. Complaining about how mischievous others are, complaining about how hard to live life is, ranting about the difficulties of making tough decisions...Complain, Complain, Rant, Rant....As if there is nothing else left in the world but bad things? That's why we fail to see the best things in life...that's why we fail to appreciate them for what/ who they are?


Right now I am complaining, well because I am ranting about these people who complain too much. Don't get me wrong, I am a complainer, a ranter, a pessimist kind of person. I always look like that, but I don't show that to others...I don't share it that much...you know why?

Because I know I am wrong...There are 2 kinds of pessimists, people who know they are wrong, and people who are ignorant about that truth, I can gladly say I am the former. I know its wrong to be a pessmist. That's why I call myself a REALIST...:) But even though...in this tough world when you focus on being a realist...it ends up focusing on the bad things...you end up being a pessimist...


So what is my challenge? What is my goal...that is to be a BELIEVER. Being a Believer is to be daring, being a believer is to challenge the impossible, being a believer is to be beyond realism or reality. Being a Believer is trusting in God. Being a Believer is to see beyond pessimism and optimism. Being a believer is to be achieve true happiness...

Waking up each morning, seeing everything and everyone as a blessing is just the start of seeing the eyes of a Believer. Seeing things, beautifully and planned out by our God just for you is being a believer. Believing in achieving impossible things not for fame, or your glory...but for God's Glory is starting to think as a Believer...Starting to  be happy for others, and thinking about others is a sign of loving as a Believer...

When you think about others...it must not be thinking about others for your own...no...When you think about others...there must be nothing in return, when you love and serve, nothing must be expected to be given back...Even appreciation...that's what being a Believer is...being Radical enough to see beyond the callings of the human flesh, and start satisfying the true happiness of the Human Soul.

When you start to Believe that there is and always will be a GREATER PURPOSE for everything that happens in your life...and you learn to accept them as they are, rather than complaining, ranting, then get hurt in the end....then you'll truly be happy. Because that happiness is not for your own anymore...but for God's :)

BEING A BELIEVER IS CHOOSING TO BE HAPPY.

so stop ranting...stop complaining...

And start BELIEVING

ORDINATIO SACERDOTALIS: A Catholic Teen's Point of View on Women's Ordination

So yeah I am posting something here in Latin? And I know its pretty confusssingg to most of my readers, as my readers are not that interested in these kind of stuff. Just you to know that besides being a CFC YFC Member, Multimedia Artist, and Crazy Person. I am also a practicing in training Catholic Apologists. Yes, my ladies and gentlemen I want to be a teen Catholic Apologist. My stand on Roman Catholicism is NEVER LIBERAL, somewhat Conservative, I accept and recognize the Vatican Council II and all the other councils before it, 100% Traditionalist...Charismatic Practicing Catholic...In short...I am a Roman Catholic Christian, and i stand by the issues and fully agree 100% on the decision of 1st the Roman Catholic Church (a.k.a. Vatican) on moral and doctrinal issues, 2nd by the POPE, the visible sheperd of the Church, and 3rd by the Congregation of the Doctrines of Faith, a commission based on scriptures, tradition and magesterium and not by "CONCIENCE" as claimed by Liberal CatholYcs.

So yeah, I was kinda ranting on the past paragraph, so to get on to my 2nd apologetic write up. The Ordinatio Sacerdotalis, and my point of view on it. So welcome to my 2nd apologetic write up on the subject and God Bless!

Ordinatio Sacerdotalis: A Catholic Teens Point of View.

Dedicated to Mr. Larry D, the person who inspired me to defend the church in face of fake errors for the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ and the defense of his Church... And I vow to join him, with many of the Catholic Apologists, together with our Pope in defending the Catholic Faith from the WOLVES from without and WITHIN. May God continue to bless you...
his website may be found here http://www.actsoftheapostasy.blogspot.com/

I really liked his blog...it's awesome and redefined and again refueled my burning desire for apologetics.
--------------------------------------
Guess what's wrong with this picture?

Yeahh!!! ok ok, besides the Multi Colored Robes, the overly designed Priestly Garments and the person that I don't know if is a guy or a lady (person with green and yellow priestly robe that looks like fruit). Yeahh!!!You're right! I spy a woman raising her hands, and ohh what's this? being congratulated on being what? WHAT ORDAINED as a PRIEST?! Yea, a priest, and that's not the surprising part. I shouldn't have cared if she was Episcopalian, Anglican or any of those stuff. No, she claims to be catholic. Oh my gosh...a Catholic Woman Priest!?!? Since when! let's get ordained already!

Ever since I've started reading Mr. Larry D's blog I 've been pretty shocked with the situation of Catholic Churches abroad, because in the Philippines I rarely see this stupid confused women ordained as priests. So here goes the question why does the Church "FORBID" the ordination of women priests? Doesn't it VIOLATE the INCLUSIVENESS??? Jesus wanted for his Church? Isn't there a verse in the New Testament talking about the Priesthood of Believers including women? Ahhh soo many questions soo limited blog space and time. So let me first answer the question...Why does the Church Forbid the Ordination of Women Priests? Here I present to you Pope John Paul II the Great on the matter. And i really liked his STRONG statement and decision on this matter. It's black and white, no loopholes and straight to the point. Kinda like St. Peter when he Infallibly proclaimed Jesus to be the Messiah on Matthew 16:18.

Ordinatio Sacerdotalis
Wherefore, in order that all doubt may be removed regarding a matter of great importance, a matter which pertains to the Church's divine constitution itself, in virtue of my ministry of confirming the brethren (cf. Lk 22:32) I declare that the Church has no authority whatsoever to confer priestly ordination on women and that this judgment is to be definitively held by all the Church's faithful.

Woww, what a direct to the point statement. The Holy Pontiff himself using his authority as the Bishop of Rome, declared that the Church has no AUTHORITY whatsoever to confer priestly ordination on Women, and that this JUDGEMENT is to be definitively HELD by ALL the Church's FAITFUL.

Well there you go, all the Church's FAITHFUL he says. Praise God! If only these were enough with our hardheaded confused liberal bretheren. In short the Ordinatio Sacerdotalis is a Papal Apostolic Letter on all the Bishops of the Roman Catholic Church to clarify the Church's stand on ordination. Thus people who does not hold this document as final and rather choose to disobey it...are FAITHLESS, they are not upholding to the simple LOGIC presented by the Pope on his decision. But as Christ showed Patience with sinners, *NOT TOLERANCE* I'll be here to present by point of view and defend the Pope's decision on this matter.

Women priests, organizations and such claiming for equality always seems to confuse and misinterpret the role of men and women in the Church. They claim that the restriction on women ordination is an attack on their equality status blah blah blah. Let me make a statement on this statement that I have considered as truth for the last 17 years of my teen life...as I am only 17 :P

MEN AND WOMEN ARE EQUAL BUT NOT THE SAME
They are equal in their word and dignity
But not the same in their God given Roles and Mandate

God has given man and women different roles as per their calling as different genders. Women are called to Motherhood while Men are called to Fatherhood. Men are called to Provide as Women are called to Support her husband. Call me sexist as many feminist and equality people blah blah people now a days claim. But this is what I stand for. Because this is what God has instituted. Want proof?

To solve this "equality" claim let us go back to the time when God created Adam and Eve. Then Eve sinned because of her desire for POWER, and Adam is not off the hook because he failed to defend Eve from the deceptions of the serpent.

EQUAL BUT NOT THE SAME
1) Woman is to be under Man

Genesis 3:16
To the woman he said, "I will greatly increase your pains in childbearing; with pain you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you."
Ooohhh NOOOO?!?! Does this mean God is SEXIST?!!? No, he is just passing judgement on Eve as to her sin, of wanting to be in command (a.k.a. GOD) by making her be subject under the obedience of her husband. Yes folks, God has instituted this kind of order in the world. Even before they had Children. There should be only ONE HEAD because 2 Heads would create a MONSTER, thus God has given Adam the Role to LEAD Eve, and at the same time given him the role as the PASTOR, PROVIDER and PROTECTOR of his Wife. This does not mean Eve is not equal in adam, no, rather Eve completes Adam's imperfections and supports his being the protector. As adam cannot bear children, take care of the home, emotionally senstive, and etc etc. In other words, Adam leads his Family, while Eve supports Adam. Their roles here are presnted as Different, they are equal, they both have rights to live, to worship, to be respected, and etc etc. But as the President of a country and a School Janitor, they are equal in their rights, but have different roles to act upon society. In this case...God instituted Man to be Head and Woman to follow.

2) Woman was created for MAN
Yeap folks, that's right, and I am not merely stating a factless emotional opinion here, but rather what I understand as stated on the Holy Bible. As stated in Genesis 2:18-23
emphasis mine
The LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him."

Now the LORD God had formed out of the ground all the beasts of the field and all the birds of the air. He brought them to the man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name. So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds of the air and all the beasts of the field. But for Adam no suitable helper was found. So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man's ribs and closed up the place with flesh. Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. The man said, This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called 'woman, for she was taken out of man.


Adam realized the importance of Eve, her role to play in creation. He considered her a Bone of his Bone, a Flesh of his Own Flesh. But as you see in my emphasis, God saw that man was lonely and Man needed a companion. So God created Woman. Woman is created for Man! Woman was created to be a companion of Man. To be the helper of Man in governing Creation. Man is not made for woman, neither they were made at the same time. Man was made first, to show example that he is instituting a lasting order of things, that he created Man for the purpose to Govern his creation as the Leader, and created Woman for Man to have a HELPER in Governing his creation. Therefore Woman was created to Follow the directions given by God through Man.

3) Wives Submit to your Husbands
As in all the congregations of the saints, women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says. If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church.

Ooohh, here goes the liberals claiming now that the person who said this is SEXIST and too traditional and not able to adjust to the times and blah blah blah. Just to let you know before you start pointing your fake styrofoam staffs. The person who wrote this is the GREAT ST. PAUL! Yes LADIES and GENTLEMEN! St. Paul. 1 Corinthians 14:33-35

St. Paul was aware of God's order on Adam and Eve. In where God has instituted Adam as the head of the family. But this time, that God has institued a Universal Family (Catholic Family) It should be clarified that MEN are still called upon by God as the leaders of his Family. Of the Church. Saint Paul even said that it is DISGRACEFUL for a woman to speak in Church, what does this mean? It doesn't mean women's voices are not be heard. But they are not allowed to teach and gave homilies and those stuff that are only reserved for Priests. St. Paul is reemphasizing a thousand year old God given order/mandate on this matter that Men are called to Lead, and woman are called to support and follow man. At the same time Man must not abuse the equality and dignity of the women following them. Do I hear a big AMEN?


CHRIST'S PERSONAL CHOICE
Now that we have established that Men and Women are Equal but not the same, and that Men are called to Lead and Women are to Follow, and God has instituted it this way. Let us proceed to Christ choosing his disciples. Now mind you, Christ let all follow him, men and women alike. He allowed this as he calls for everyone to be his disciple. However he only chose 12 apostles, 12 primary disciples that he knows who would carry on his mission as the foundations of the church. And notice here that he has chosen only MEN, not just because this is the current "TREND" of the "TIMES" or that was the "NORM" back then, but because Jesus was FULLY aware of the Priestly line of the Jewish Tradition, the Levites in where they are set apart from the people. Although God has called everyone to be Priests, this is meant to be the evangelizers, everyone is called to take part on the mission of proclaiming the Gospel of Christ, but as he said only a few are called to be the Presbyters, the PASTORS of the people, the leaders, the PROTECTORS of Christ's gospel the PROVIDERS of God's Body and Blood the Eucharist. Do I hear something...something familiar...BOOM! The role of MEN in the Family. The role of MEN in society to lead. And Christ knows this perfectly he said this and practiced it. So you FAKE CONFUSED women priests, out there, stop saying it's what Christ could've wanted...because you haven't seen him living, breathing, eating, and talking to you. He instituted a Church to protect us from this errors. It was his Choice as God for this to happen, and how to conduct it this way.


THE ROLE OF THE CHURCH AS THE BRIDE, AND PRIESTS AS THE GROOM
We've always defined the Church as a HER "NO POLITICAL CORRECTNESS HERE" because she has CHILDREN, and because Mother Mary is the Model of the Church. The Church is the Bride of Christ who is the Groom. Wanna know why priests are celibate (more articles about this later) it's because they are in persona Christi. Person acting for Christ. Because it is Christ who moves in them, Christ who lives in them and acts in the. Thus they are already married, committed to the Church. As the Bride! They are the Grooms Men, the Groom of the Church who is the Bride. Of course this has not effect on those Dissidents because they believe in same sex sodomitic homosexual marriage. So it's okay for them :))


NO SUCH THING AS PRIESTESS IN CATHOLIC TRADTION, ONLY ON PAGAN RELIGIONS
Christ never mentioned PRIESTESS, or PRESBYTERESS, because they didn't see the need for such. They didn't accept and agree on that matter. As you see it is not just theologically incorrect to say Women Priests, it is also gramatically incorrect as they are PRIESTESS, they are PRIESTESS in the language defined as it shows a FEMININE argument. Now see here that only Pagans have priestess...perhaps??? Noo...but...what if??? Hmmm

BUSTING ANSWERING THE 7 REASONS PRESENTED IN A PRO-WOMEN ORDINATION WEBSITE

my comments in red
1. One priesthood in Christ
Through baptism women and men share equally in the new priesthood of Christ. This includes openness to Holy Orders.

so if I were to follow your logic, so is the people who are teens, children, gays, lesbians, gay who are lesbians and no matter their status is as long as they are baptized, they can preside in Holy Orders? You are misinterpreting the Priesthood of Believers presented by Christ which is for the mission to Evangelize and proclaim the Gospel, but not to Pastor his flock. So if everyone can share equally the priesthood then that means everyone can become a priest? So who needs laity and 10 years of study and prayer? Everyone is uin the priesthood of Christ you say.
2. Empowered to preside

At the Last Supper Jesus empowered both women and men. Both can be ordained to preside at the Eucharist.
At the last supper Jesus only had his 12 Apostels (Men) in the table. Now some Feminists claim Women are also present, well I agree. He empowered men and women alike. AGREE. But he didn not Empower both to preside. Only to his Apostles did he gave authority, only to his Apostles he gave a special gift to forgive and not to forgive. So what were the women doing at the last supper? Serving ofcourse! They were serving the Lord through cooking, fixing the table, and providing the necessities needed by the Apostles. And they didn't even complain about being not treated equally and started rallying and proclaiming radical theologies and then claiming that there exist a Girl Jesus. How great is that! They were humble and submitted to the authority of Christ and to the men he has appointed over them. To lead them. To pastor them, to Provide for them, and to Protect them!


3. Cultural bias

The Church’s practice of not ordaining women as priests was based on a three-fold prejudice against women. This affected the judgment of Church leaders.

Show me proof, that it is a prejudice against women...Then you would go on presenting conspiracy theories about having a female Jesus name Jesuette and SHE was erased in history and was made man because of prejudice against women. Want proof and defense why women were not ordained as priest? Holy Scriptures ain't enough for you? Church Documents seem too restrictive? Then go the the Church FATHERS!!! *ooopss*


4. Women have been deacons
Until at least the ninth century the Church gave women the full sacramental ordination of deacons. This proves women can be ordained.

Again, please provide me a document, a proof, and please let it be signed and proclaimed valid by the Pope of the current time, and not of a schismatic bishop or a heretical priest or a wayward prophet. Only then would I agree on this, as long as it is considered valid by the Pope.

5. The ability for women to be ordained has been present in the Church’s latent Tradition.

One example is the age-long devotion to Mary as Priest. It shows that, according to the ‘sense of the faithful’, in Mary the ban against women has already been overcome.

Huwatt?!?!? Age long devotion as a priest?!?! HUWAT?!!? Sacrilegous. Mama Mary, herself didn't claim priesthood. She was venerated as the Mother of God, Mother of the Church, our Mother and our guidance, but never as a priest. Even Pope John Paul II a HARD CORE!!! \m/ Devottee of the Blessed Virgin Mary disapproved of this matter. Did you read about Mama Mary teaching? or presiding about anything? A verse in the Bible says she knew all of these things (Christ's teachings) by heart and contemplated upon them in SILENCE! Seee she is a handmaiden of the Lord, obedient to his word, and obedient to the order he has established.

6. The wider Church accepts women priests

After serious study and prayer other Christian Churches now ordain women as priests. Though not everything other Churches do can be accepted by the Catholic Church, this converging consensus by believing Christians confirms that ordaining women is according to the mind of Christ.

This is a contridactory statement I'll just laugh it off. You say not everything other Churches do can be accepted by the Catholic Church and yet you claim that we can accept this as permissable because a MAJORITY of the Christians allowed it? Because DEMOCRACY applies? That's why God's Church is NEVER democratic, but rather a Kingdom...(more on this on later articles) he instituted a deciding factor body on this decision, it doesn't mean the voices of the People is God's will...heck no...Soo you're saying Christ to be crucified *majority by the way* was justifyable. Please....a simple 17 year old could see the loopholes in your loggic that taints the image of the Church.

7. Women too are, in fact, called to be priests

The fact that many responsible Catholic women discern in themselves a vocation to the priesthood is a sign of the Holy Spirit we may not ignore.

Conclusion: there are no valid arguments against women priests, and many truly Catholic arguments in favour!



THE CHURCH ON THE MODERN WORLD
The Church stands in the Modern World Strong and Faithful! To the ever standing tradition, discipline and doctrine on God Given roles to Men and Women. Popes of entire history has re-affirmed this decision over and over again. And our Pope Benedic XVI is defending it and upholding the legacy left by PopeJohn Paul II the Great. The question is not the shortage of priests, the commitment of the people or inclusiveness or such. The question is...God's Will. Is this his WILL for his Church.

Thankfully he has annointed leaders to govern us. Strong men to lead us, and faithful women (religious sisters) to support this men in upholding the truth on his Church and on his people

To God be the glory

my friends...:)

--------------------------- 

Charles- My friend waaaayyy before JACKsons, he was a participant when I first team-led a youth camp in August 10-11, 2006 in Philippine National School. But we were not that close until our summer vacation in 2007 where we got together every single day to serve in the Parish Summer Camp. That is when I got to know him, and saw how much he has changed, how much God has changed him, and how much mature he grew as a person and as a youth leader. He's interested in MARVEL, MUSIC, PS GAMES and any other PACKED ACTION stuff *like Flirting* :)) peace, he's not that drama person type, and although other people see him as a joker, or just a random person laughing. I see him as a person, a youth leader, a friend trying to follow Christ's footsteps. He's one of the people who contributed in changing my life.

Kevin- AHHHHHH the quiet dude, and yet deadly. Madalas si Kevin tahimik pero pag bumanat bigatin. I really admire this dude, when he's committed on something, he'll be committed on that something. I NEVER heard him complained *except MY gay (ASAR) times* That's what good about him, he doesn't complain, he knows how to listen, he is happy with living a simple life, and knows when to break ice when needed. He unlocked the secret to happiness. Kevin showed me how life is...simply beautiful.

Josh- hahahaha si JOSHHHHH, this dude, I met him 2nd year, but didn't really got to know him until our 2009 Summer Vacation, when he was transferred to my Cluster. He was the one who introduced me in Greek Mythology And I assigned him and he accepted (DID NOT TRICK HIM) into becoming a YFC Communications Head of our Cluster. I assigned him to that service not because he's talented and/or creative, no I began to see beyond that, I began to see a deep person, a person struggling to live a life which is rooted in Christ. I see him beyond the artist everybody sees, I see him beyond the loud and hyper person people see...I see him as a contemplative, sensitive and deep person. That he has yet to unleash into the real world (he already unleashed this on the virtual world). And I learned a lot of life lessons because of him.

AJ- YESSSSSSSSSSSSS the dude I got to mingle and know in 4th Year. He really is the 200% most hyper person in the group, he is the complete opposite of Kevin in every way, except in his heart. He's a great person unable to say NO to people in need. He is a person that has a pure heart, that sees life as it is, and tend to enjoy it for what it offers. He knows his limitations and is unafraid of being happy and hyper. He knows when to smile and when to be serious. And he gives life to a conversation. AJ taught me how to be truly happy.

KC- KC KC KC KC :)) haiizz KC! Nasama ka pa sa Picture eh :P As you notice ayan puro emoticon parin, she's a great girl, Girl of the Year nga :)) She's veryyyy special for me ;) alam nia na un, and I got to know her more when we were asssigned as Partners in the YCTP and supposed to be Youth Camp. The long calls, the random chats and etc, got to know KC as a trustworthy person and.......:)) Masarap siya asarin, and she knows how to smile...Truly smile in face of troubles for the sake of others. She knows how to pick her friends...and she is truly magnificent in being a YFC Leader. Magkikita pa kami niyan sa Baguio :P Jejebuster siya khit Jejemon siya dhil sa mga xD nia and yes she'll deny this sasabihin nia ndi jejemon ang xD tpos maraming kakampi sa kanya, she's like this loved by many and defended by all! :)) She taught me how to be patient and how to truly PERSERVERE :> :))

The History? on my Point of View...

We avoid calling names to our group, we don't even define ourselves as a group...But rather as Brothers. Most of us learned to accept life as it is and let go at an early stage. Altough we don't know ALL about each other's personal life, we know we can run to one another in times of trouble. You may not see us always laughing or always fooling around, because we know HOW to balance EVERYTHING. How to balance laughter, sadness, deepness, contemplation, friendship and academics. We know our limitations, I believe all of us are mature enough to live good lives. I know that all-star kami and one thing unites us....and that is our common belief and faith in God...That when we talk to one another and have problems, we know that God is our Solution. Our friendship is built on FAITH, HOPE and LOVE

i'll miss these freaks!!! these freaks I call my own, my brothers in Christ, my friends...

hope to see you again soon

God Bless

the story
---------
it was a fun day, varying from electric shocks in our bodies, walking back in forth in the stores, trying out all the electronic gadgets in Plug-ins, waiting for charles and kevin to show up, buying popepyes and mitch wanting a biscuit, AJ overemphasizing on the gravy and being hyper in playing the games...it was amazing

we went to marina mall, originally planning to watch a movie at 12:30, then it was moved to 2, then 6 until we got to watch at 8:45. Why you ask? because we were waiting for the people who were *ehem* late...from the PLAN!!! :D

So I wen to josh's house about 11:00 PM, stayed there until 1:30 PM, we went to Marina Mall, met up with KC and AJ... me and josh talking about random stuff, AJ being the group hyper person, yeah its pretty much all about AJ being hyper and super active....stayed in Marina Mall until 4:45 PM, went to the beach and there met with Charles, Kevin, and Alain , had a swim, mitch splattered SLIMYYYY mud all over his body and face, and claims that after the beach his skin was softer, AJ swimming all around, me and mitch trying to pull AJ's shorts down, AJ ADMIRING THE BEAUTY of the girls, me making sand art. Like I planned to make a shark that ends up as a Tilapia, and an anaconda that ends up looking like a worm. We swam all around relaxing and making our past dreams a reality, of being carefree and just lying on the shore, experiencing happiness...

We stayed there and bid KC goodbye, after AJ's antics of borrowing the Towel, went to Marina Mall, bought tickets for Iron Man 2, and shared popcorns...

Iron Man 2 finished 11 PM, which was pretty late, but if we were given a choice we would still be hanging out with each other's home...there was no boisterous laughter, or senseless conversations all the time...nope there was just bonding and friendship. I went home, satisfied and happy...knowing I had these friends and I got the chance to know them.

the lesson
------
Recently people especially in our batch are sad, about graduation, leaving, and everything...I am not here to criticize about them being sad, but that's the normal reaction...sadness because people are leaving and etc, and it kinda bothers me because...God gave us friends to be Happy that we met them and not to be sad when we leave them. Of course its normal to be sad for a week or two, but remember we would still see each other, what matters the most is that you learn to accept they are leaving, and you are being separated, in order to be happy. I also realized that happiness and sadness is not merely an emotion, but a state of being. Being happy at the same time missing your friends is allowable, but being sad and happy is irreconcileable. Happiness is the most when you realize that the people you met changed your life.

I also realized, there is no such thing as SUPERIOR group of friends, or COOL group of friends. You cannot treat your group of Friends as the lasting friendship as you don't know what would happen in the future. Stop making promises to be "FOREVER" if you don't know if there is even Ever....Its nice to dream, its ok to visualize, but do not restrict yourself into new friendships and open possibilities, do not compare your friends NOW and your friends BEFORE, because you'll never be happy. Learn to Let go!

Lastly, the greatest lesson I learned during the day...

"You'll never realize that those moments are Treasured Moments until they are over"

Many would not agree as they would claim that they know a moment is to be treasured if they are feeling it currently. No, I beg to disagree...you'll never be able to realize that THAT moment is to be treasured until it is over, because you'll begin missing it, you'll begin wanting it again, and you'll realize the lessons behind it. It is because we were sooo caught up with the moment that we forget that its probably gonna be the last...May 12, 2010 is the only May 12, 2010 in our whole of lifetime, nothing can ever bring that day, that moment forever.

That's why I always say...Good or Bad

TREASURE EVERY MOMENTS....with your friends, family, loved-one, siblings, GOD :)

friendship is not about hanging out together, laughing together, having the same interests and etc...no..


Friendship is about having genuine Love for one another

failure

excerpt from www.bosanchez.ph

 

Success Doesn’t Teach You Much;

Only Failure Teaches You

Your Most Powerful Lessons Of Victory

       This is the irony of life.
       Success doesn’t teach you much.
       It’s only Failure that teaches you your most important Lessons of Victory.
       When you’re successful, you don’t know why you’re successful. You just assume that perhaps it’s this or that thing.
       When you’re successful, you’re complacent.
       When you’re successful, you’re not teachable.
       When you’re successful, you’re proud.
       When you’re successful, you’re hard-headed.
       But when you fail, you fall on your face.

You hit the ground. 

Bang!

       You’re stunned. 
       You’ve dazed.
       You’ve got blood on your lips.
       You’ve got massive pain on your knee.

Suddenly, you’re attentive.

       Suddenly, you’re quiet.
       Suddenly, you ask hard questions. 

“Why did I fail?”

“What can I do so I won’t fail again?”

As you answer these questions, you learn lessons of victory.

And when you apply those lessons of victory, that’s when you succeed.
