> I made this article for a client few days ago so I can write some articles for their team.  Fortunately, even though I don't have any background with writing, I got HIRED.  Thank you Lord God for this opportunity!  :)

My mother is...

She has not held me for 9 months on her womb but her unconditional love says it all.
She has always been there whenever I needed a shoulder to cry on.
Even though she has always been busy, she was never absent to every family event at school.
She is crazy as hell when she's angry.  She is so good as an angel whenever someone needs her.  She protects me from harm, and has been very strict.

But above all that,

I love her and she is my SUPERWOMAN.

She seldom says "No" to my requests.  She always thinks about me first, more than herself.

She is my best friend, sister and most of all my loving MOTHER.

She is the reason why I cry, smile and laugh.

She is my one and only loving MOM who's always on my side.

I love her more than anything and anyone, and her name is tattooed in my mind and my heart.

I love you MOM.

What's the real cause?

Way back years ago, earth was but a simple thing in the universe.  Then the intelligent human kind made some innovations that may have been beneficial or the other way around.  We have been trying to find every single reason to make technological advancements to support our race.  Some things were favorable while some are not.  Guns, machines, carbon-emitting factories, cars, plastics etc, have been designed to make our lives less stressful.  But do they really serve its purpose?  The answer is yes, definitely.  But, the consequence that lies upon them is far way more massive than their advantages.   It has never been questioned by anyone from the authority.  Well in fact, maybe because these things give them THE AUTHORITY, the power that these things can bring them is pretty obvious.  For ordinary people, the factories serve as their source of income because it brings food to the table, while guns and some other machines make the rich more powerful than you can imagine.  Those who are on top became greedy.  But then again, what made them that?  Is it the money itself, the IMPROPER INNOVATIONS/Inappropriate Technological advancement or the PEOPLE who made them? 

On the other hand, it pains me a lot to see the news.  People are blaming the government for not doing anything for them.  But is it really the government that has to be blamed after all these effects that the typhoon/disaster has made or us people of the country who have been ruining the environment because of the undisciplined and crooked attitude of ours?  This made me realize how cruel nature may become after all these years.  This may have been the result of the wickedness of humans or punishment from the Almighty.  But whatever the reason is, the result will always be the same---DISASTER.

Changes in life

Some years have passed and change has been evident every day.  Whether we like it or not, we are now living in a place full of material things. Money has become the center of everything.  It became the sole reason to survive the chaotic world.  We cannot blame ourselves because movies show us the luxury that each person wants to grab someday.  Actors, celebrities and politicians became the epitome of fame and power.  Eventually, envy and jealousy rose to people's inner souls. Hoping that someday, they will also taste the sweetness of being served and doing anything they want without difficulty.  They forgot about the true meaning of life.  Love, compassion, generosity, honesty, and some other intangible things have been lost.  These things were not the source of motivation of people anymore.   Relationships were no longer true, trusts have been broken, all because of financial matters.  Knowing all these things has been very frustrating.  No matter how much we try to deny it, it is still the truth and YES, the truth hurts.

Nonetheless, I still think that the most important things here on earth are those that are not seen by the naked eye but those that are felt by our precious hearts.

I just hope that the future generations will soon realize this major loss.  May they serve as the light from the darkness that we have made.  I hope that the change this time won't be another dissatisfaction but a triumph to everyone's hearts.

Cebu and Bohol travel by metzymits :)

Way back 2 years ago, our research, "The Progression of Relationship among Filipino Youth" was chosen for podium presentation in an International Conference at the Convention Center, Cebu City, Philippines.  Two of my group mates, our clinical instructor and I went to Cebu to attend the said conference.  We stayed there for 4 days.  Since Bohol is just about an hour away from Cebu, we decided to go there for sight-seeing.  We saw the legendary Chocolate Hills and also the known cute little animal, tarsier.



We enjoyed our stay there.  I hope I can go to some other places soon.
