Imagine There's No Heaven

My Dad's favorite band, The Beatles, where John Lennon was a member and sang this song titled "Imagine". I was listening to this song last night after a talk over twitter with Jesse, a.k.a @jesatiu. We exchange thoughts on some violence not stressing on which violence, emotional, physical, et.al.

I was thinking, literally imagining, what would happen if the song would be for real?

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

This is what we want right? We hate the government, we hate our neighbors, we wished there'd be no more killings or sufferings, and etc.

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

I am not trying to interpret what the meaning of the song is and I maybe wrong with the way I understand it. I think the song is telling me that I am not perfect. I wanted peace but I can not have peace for I am not at peace with my inner self, my surroundings, with the people close to me. I wanted to share the world but what makes me human is that I am being selective with what I try to share. No one in here can absolutely share 100% of his or her self to others because we got our very own responsibility as a parent to a child, a child to his or her parents, as a brother and as a sister. Not unless you are Jesus. (to the religious, sorry I do not intend to use the name of the Lord here. Just trying to make a point.)

Again, the song is trying to tell us that in giving a little of what we have should be given wholeheartedly. And since we can only do so little that we are all encourage to give what is the best that we can give and when everything is added starting from what I give, to what you give, to what others can give makes up a bigger deed that will be greatly appreciated by those who are given. Violence will never stop unless we don't cure the core of it's problem. It is not even a problem anymore, it is one kind of disease that has been with us for a long time.

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

I can not absolutely say this will be achieved in time but how can this be started when no one will make a stand.

Why are women so sensitive?

A lot of guys have asked this question several times. There had been cases of break ups because of women being over sensitive. I'll say that again, over sensitive.

Guys, us girls, are not sensitive. Oh yeah, I can hear some reactions now.

Here are some that may help you.

Girls love to be appreciated all the time. Gifts are good but you have to give it little extra added affection in giving it. A doctor friend of mine said, girls experience mood swings which is part of being a girl because girls have the menstrual cycle. Frequent mood swings are symptoms of menopause so I hope your special girl is not in her menopausal stage.

Guy came in greeted his woman, "Hey! Honey. How's your day?". Either she just look at you or she said, "I'm not in the mood." You can ask her what happened and if she insist on not to talk about it then don't ask further questions. Don't say anything just stay beside her. If she's reading a book then read a book as well. Watching TV then watch TV with her, even if you don' t like Desperate Housewives or whatever that is. Slowly, she'll get near you and cuddle with you or she'll ask you questions that starts with, WHY. You can answer some questions though or just listen to her but never argue with what she's telling you. You can say "Maybe...(followed by what you would want to say)" after she took that deep breath and tone down her voice.

Guys, just let your girls be mad at you sometimes. It does not mean the end of the relationship. Girls, don't go too far with your sensitivity. You may lose your man if you are over sensitive.

One thing I would like to add though, don't end the night without talking about it.

What's Inside Your Bag?

I would like to share the things inside my bag. I don't have pictures of them but I hope these pictures will help you visualize it.

I am a book lover and I sometimes wear stilletos. (Lol)

What the World Needs Now

Do you remember that song, What the world needs now is love? It is sang many times and yet we don't understand it.

I got a question to ask. Is it that hard to give love? Or you only choose those whom you will give love?

I have been reading a lot of articles on the web regarding violence, sexual assault, and anything to a degree of unlikeable to my conscious mind. Surely does tell me I am still lucky. Somehow it got me to thinking am I really lucky or I was unlucky? Ironic feelings isn't it? Lucky because I was not the victim. Unlucky because I have been reckoning life's difficulties that seems to be impassable.

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love,
No not just for some but for everyone.

My other question is, how do we start giving love? Or spreading love?

Sick

I am sick
literally

very sunny in the morning
getting dark around 9 am
rain starts to fall at 10 am
goes heavy till the afternoon

I am sick
with politics

they love Obama
I don't know Obama
Bush endorses McCain
Who is he?

I am sick
with life

no matter how hard you do
someone still pulling you down
it don't even matter to them
they'll say, Who the f**k are you?

I am sick
with dreaming

it always make me weak
maybe because it shows me what I want
but it never happens
and I'm so sick of that

I am sick
with loving

you give
but no one appreciate it.
you share
but one will get jealous

I am sick
literally

Dreaming

And so the dreams are just dreams
And so the dreams are hopes
And so hopes are just dreams
And so hopes and dreams resides where?

And so we can't make dreams come true?
And so dreams coming true are luck
And so luck are for some people
And so luck are not for everyone

And so are we unlucky?
And so some lucky people can no longer be reached
And so the unlucky ones are struggling to be like the lucky ones
And so the lucky ones are calling us fools

And so we are just dreaming
And so we are just hoping
And so dreaming
And so hoping

Random Thoughts....

I feel alive again....
I would like to..
Do I have to ask?
Is it gonna be a yes?
Or should I wait for *** to ask...
** said it's easier to ask now...
Do I have to wait?
Is it gonna be right to be involve again after the heartache?
Do I have to care about the past?
It is the past so I dumped it..

The battle of my heart and mind
increasing heart's beat to vanish doubting thoughts
struggling what should be done first
can't move, would want to move

sunshine it is
but there's sunset
and so the body rest for awhile
but the heart keeps on beating
while the mind is at rest

I am happy but am still afraid to ask
should I ask or should I give it awhile...
breaking the heart is easy
but giving the heart again is hard

would you dance with me?
or should I say it relentlessly..
and honestly

Maybe later
Not now for sure
later is better..

who should I choose?
that one
this one
or the another one

can't make up yet
I like this one
I like that one too
not the other one for **'s no longer free

this one is vocal
that one is not even sure what **'s feelings are
should I follow my heart?
or I should give time?
for I need time as well..

Precious Friendship

Me and my college buddies never get tired of talking again and again the foolishness during college days.

If we do hang out together, we will probably stay at a coffee shop or someplace to eat and just talk.






I hope the group will last for a lifetime.

Gratitude

My cousin, Achi Michelle, posted her very own words about gratitude. Now, here's what I say about gratitude.

Often people, when faced with too much luck, they talk about gratitude to almost everyone who has helped them for it truly made them better. Then stop saying thank you after a while, I must say they have said it why would you have to say it again.

Gratitude does not end with saying thank you. It does not end by merely saying it out loud but with how you will react it after saying thank you. It is easier said than done. Amazing it is to see one saying thank you after helping him and then turns his back on you and after a day or two that person does not even know what you have done to him.

I would like to say thank you to the following:

1. God
2. Mom
3. Dad
4. Siblings
5. Mamu
6. Cousins
7. Friends (Gaburongza, Boink, Chat, Daisy, Mitch)
8. New found friends online (Shawn, Jesse, Amanda)
