Begin with Yourself

            Different responsibilities, priorities and roles in our society. But all aims to make our world better. Pushing forward to a new era where everything is innovation. But before that big change where should we begin?

            Ourselves, the starting line is ourselves. In order to change something that big we need to change ourselves, innovate it. Our skills let’s hone it to sharpen and put it in use in the future. Set our minds to think positively, set our paths to the right direction in order to influence others to the bright side. Every big things starts in small things. By ourselves we can be a light in changing our dark world. With a single light with a good use of influence we can spread the light and give a hope of change.

A new me?

            A new year, a new day, a new decade. A fresh start to change or stay as it is. Hmmm? Setting a new goal which somehow I will only fail at it just like this past few years. Wait, maybe I will do it, set goal might as well do it, my best to strive to that certain goal. But what will it be, change my personality, physical self? Start a diet, or achieve something great, be a legend of my own? I don’t know, let’s just leave it for a moment and take time to think about it.

            We often start a new year, with our New Year’s Resolution. For the first few days, or weeks we are just doing fine, we are striving but after a few months we forget about it. Fading in our memory once a promise became a memory which we can’t remember no more. Laziness may come and will ruin every plan you made since the day you set your goals. Well what I’m thinking about is, will I change ‘me’? The way I interact, the talkativeness I have in me, I don’t know seems kind of hard, just thinking about it makes me not to pursue it anymore. Well it will benefit me for sure, changing my behavior but many things will change or adjust too, for sure. Thinking about it maybe I will? I don’t know, I don’t want to set new goals and eventually fail at the end. But for the mean time I’ll try my best, try to change for the better I guess.

            A new me, sounds pretty good but takes up effort; a bunch of them. Thinking what if the new me will change that much, losing my identity, building a new one. As early as possible we should be deciding of what we should do with our lives. New me, for the better or worse, doesn’t matter I won’t do it anyway.

Ikatlong Yugto:

Sa ikatlong yugto marami kaming natutunan, ang paggawa ng isang web page gamit ang FrontPage. 

Maraming mga pagsubok ang dumating gaya ng paglilink ng mga pages at pagaayos ng formats. Ngunit lahat ng ito ay aking nalagpasan dahil sa pagtyatyaga at pagpupursigi. Sa paguunawa ng naturang aralin ay nakatulong din.

Kaya ngayon mas pagtyatyagaan ko pa at mas paghuhusayan ang aking mga gawain. Hanggang sa muli paalam.

Joy to the world

Once again the day our Jesus Christ was born. That gave joy to people for a blessing that was given to us. Jesus brought a new religion based on love & the vision of a God who is full of compassion and forgiveness; a vision of doing everything with a positive mindset & from a place of love.

Christmas well first thing that comes in our mind are presents, delicious food and a joyful music ringing in our ears. That’s one thing but the true essence of Christmas is love. Give things with love, eat those meals with those people you love, and sing those songs lovely with all our hearts. As we go on and celebrate Christmas we must keep in mind, the reason of why we have this; the love of our God. Be a helping hand, a model of being a good person, showing how much you care and love for them. Be a guide in sharing love and positivity, spreading the work and words of God.

For me love is the essence of Christmas, bring joy to the world. But we must keep in mind, spread love not only in Christmas; every day is Christmas. Have a jolly and Merry Christmas to all.

GAD-VAW

We are living in a world full of stereotypes. Saying that women are weak, resulting to various abuses. Living in the shadows, they fear to speak up and stand for themselves. Some doesn’t even have the right to live peaceful. Violating their rights physically, mentally, and sexually, leading to issues, health issues.

It has a big impact in our society; it’s one of the biggest problems in our society, having inequality between the two genders. Common abuse that is happening to women are physical and sexual abuse. In times these abuses happen to one’s life, it becomes more difficult for them to move on. Destroying their lives and disrupting them to live peacefully. And may lead to a bigger problem or become a reason for suicide.

Stop the violence, fight for what is right. Break the barriers among us. Spread love and positivity, stop the hate.  End violence, to every mankind.
