modern tech, same message

it's kinda cool when you are only 6 weeks old and our friends and your family from (almost) around the world knew of your existence...

be aware that you are loved, and that love, no one can take away from you...

the best is yet to come... see yah!

a father's tale

......

basically, no words to describe...

my laptop is blank, my mind is blank...

my coffee mug is empty, my brain is empty...

my mind is playing tricks on me... as if there's earthquake and my heartbeat races up...

i feel cold and sweating... and that is just knowing that it is positive...

and if the time comes that i would actually hold in my hands the miracle... then what... i dont know...

im blogging so that i would not forget, that this day, a man can be in more than two places at one time...

pasig (part of 10 years, 10 cities series...)

i remember writing about 10 years and 10 cities...

pasig(ortigas), osaka, kobe, tokyo, manila, makati, kuala lumpur, singapore, mandaluyong and jakarta...

pasig - ortigas: 1999, along Dr. Sixto Antonio Ave. (yes, the same street in the Eheads' song)... next to the famous ULTRA... there was a sisig house right outside Citihomes, my first address in Metro Manila!!!... i remembered going to the ULTRA gym, pretending to be a national athlete (i was thinking athletics, but the guard thought i was a fencer), with former national athlete ronard john... he would help me with my bench press and would pick up a pair of pants from my closet... he would relate (sad) stories of being in the national team with meager budget, and of defeating multi-millionaire athletes like david buenavacz... as an armyman, he was deployed in mindanao and gave first-hand account of a real war... chilling... and as he survived his battle, mine was just beginning...

reincarnation

no... i dont believe in reincarnation...

but what's happening is almost beyond belief, reincarnation of events exactly as it was years ago...

in the beginning of my journey, i was given a senior who does not know more than me... i do all the legwork and he gets all the credits... so i quit, and started the journey again somewhere else...

next, i was deceived of colorful words as empty as white... left in the middle of an arena with lions to fend... i remembered daniel, keeped the faith... until i met a prophet who would take me out of the dungeon (or so i thought...)

the prophet was brilliant and many believed him... but i dont understand why his lies were important... and left me with a wandering, wondering flock... it's not that i cant take care of them, but the prophets' word are so ingrained in their veins that i cant purify them without hurting them too much... so i quit again and crossed the seas and mountains... hoping to find that noble who would take me under his wings...

and like the beginning of my journey, a senior no better than me, i do all the legwork and he reaps the praises...

and like the middle of my journey, colorful words which fed me to the lions...

and like the last part of my journey, will leave me a wandering, wondering flock with impurities in their blood much worse than my previous flock...
