walay tuna tocino diha bem gikan sa gensan?

Everything about desiderata but more so this phrase:

f you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain or bitter,
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.

Bem, this is most favorite poem.  I have been using this as my own mantra.

I think mas safer kung magamit ug headset while talking.

It is always safer in everything, like driving, ironing clothes, cooking etc etc!

NO it is still the smoking has the highest risk, Lak im sorry to say...

sa Accidents noon, there are more cellphone users died than being drunk, yeah its true!

I agree with you Maring that SMOKING, as compared to using cphone is still the highest risk.  Smoking is risky. Nicotine is so bad.  It killed a lot of people of lung cancer.  I was reading this news earlier kay gi forward ni Murage sa ako ang link.  I didn't believe it.  The radiation from cphone is negligible.  Not unless all straight 10-years you do nothing but use your cphone.  

Thanks, Flower, kay ako jud pod unta ni i post dire for people to comment on.

I would shake her hand and thank her for your contribution to the world, and would also ask for a pose together.

This is our youngest sister, Terter with my Mom and the hinayhay in their background!

Grace, ka unique pod niya ug name noh Terter - iya ni nickname or real name, curious lang ko

Congratulations sa iyang graduation oi. And I wish her best sa iyang NCLEX exams. God bless her!

hala noh si mom, gipa continue pa sya sa iyang life diri sa kalibutan para ma enjoy pa niya ang wala niya ma enjoy ilabina pag graduate sa iyang youngest daughter.
And also ingon si God, tagaan pa daw ko ug chance nga ma meet nako sya

Beth, Terter, your and my youngest sister is named Mari Teressee, she being the 13th.  It irritated her that Dad's friends, when Dad didn't have a cphone yet, they text through her to ask for Dad kana mangita sila'g ka quorum sa mah jong.  They would text her, "13, Naa diha imong Papa?" We thought that's cute but she is used to that already though.

Beth, that's her second course already.  Her first course was BSCommerce.  Hapon sent her to nursing at HNU.  It was her graduation on the 29th busa tua silang Lumine, Herman, Baby Matt and my nieces and nephew from Davao City.  They have so much fun jud!

About Mommy, yes Beth, you'll see our Mom when you come home in 2011 pohon.  She will greet you with her warm smile.

do you really believe in all these stuffs? i mean theres no doubt she is brilliantly intelligent thats why cheating the presidential election is one of her best strategy. how can you say she's the best best leader the country needs right now when you are living and enjoying most of your life the american way? you dont have any idea how the common filipino suffered under her administration. ask the palengke vendors if the so called 7% rise of GNP has made a difference in their lives? your statistics are all wrong!

uhhm this thread it's make me funny and otherwise very interesting, fortunately some people were answered using what so called sentiment words.
   Cheating the votes during the election is one of the component in political arena of our country or even all over the world.
Candidates who were vanished after the elections most of them were using this word ( Cheat ) gikawatan/ gilimbongan etc.. oi all of them are cheater ang pang palit ug mga votes is considered cheater. Dahil peldi dako ug gasto sa election  magpabuhi lang sa dugo to impress their supporter. Those people sobrang believed sa ilang kaugalingon ug dili modawat sa kapildihan, Those people maoy nag-hatag ug dakong problima sa atong gobyerno very nasty,  sila ang nasa likod or nag finance sa mga activist. Ginamit nila ang ka parean or some civic organizations to demoralized  the administration ug sila ang gusto mo lingkod ug mag- paburot na naman sa bulsa bawe gasto sa election.

Kahit sino ang Presidente dili na mo barato ang presyo sa palitonon. Pareho sa atong edad if your aged now is 40 years old dili poydi sa next year nga maging 39 years old ka. ha ha ha.

Slackware, of course the 7% rise of GNP  dili na nimo makita sa mga market vendor naunsi man intawon ka oi he he he.

I second the motion, Ashton.

Ladies and gentlemen, Tubag Bohol friends, Romans, lend me your ears!  It's time for me to say, good night!  I had a good night with you guys!  I hope that in the morning, we continue this day of happiness not of fighting and of being unreasonable.  God bless us all!  See you all later!

^nope...he didn't cook for any of the US Presidents as well...

which is a shocker noh? You would think Food Network would check his background first before hiring him...

I think they're now looking for another chef to take-over the show

He was good at it pa naman!  Why would anyone fake their resume unya i involve pa presidents na that is so easy to check!  Sahay, mag mess up ning Food Network kay naay mga contestants sa Next Food Network Star na ma strip pod sa crown tungod kay naa diay deliberate wrong info sa ilang resume.

'te maka hilak pood na uy, i can imagine seeing your mama planting the kamote in front of your balay. You know that is what my Lola Nating used to do when she was still alive...my mommy's mommy...

Oh, don't cry, Dong because we had fun then!  You know what i like most, when I had to harvest na.  I checked where the crack in the soil and in there lies the kamote that we soon would cook!  We also use the young leaves of the kamote  (is that kamote tops?) for our sud-an by just sauteing with ahos, siboyas and kamatis and that was far better than hamburger in terms of nutrients! hehehehe

Lingaw kaayo ang message nimo, 'te. I'm here in my biology cublicle working on papers and reading this thread, and as I read your story, I swear, I began to cry. Luuy kayo, pero something different sa imung pamilya kai naa man mo drive, ang ambisyon to be more that what was. That, 'te, is what defines a person. It defines you, your sisters, your brothers, and it ultimately defines your parents--in that they have such intelligent children--to use their own whits, their own GOD-GIVEN minds, arms, hands, to succeed.

Amen, I say to you, Amen!

Hehehe hala dong, ga sirit2x ra ba akong binisaya ana I am glad nasabtan nimo.  Diha jud ko bilib nimo, Dong, bisan dato na ka humble gihapon! hahaha joke lang, Dong!  It's true though that you are dato sa compassion, understanding and respect ug uban pa!  Thanks a lot for all the kind words, Dong!

Mao jud, Dong!  Wa untay mahitabo sa among kinabuhi if we didn't defy poverty then.  I didn't say we were unhappy then even if at times we didn't have food to eat but we wanted more. we wanted education. we wanted to be able to help our younger siblings get education too.  we wanted better life for our parents when they grow older. and there was no other way but to leave home and work.  of course, it was also because we had so much faith that God would us to our desire to have a change, a better change of the course of our lives.

My beloved Ate Ging,

I never knew about your family history, hapit pood ta mo hilak to hear about it kai maka remember pood ko sa ang mama ug papa sa ahong ginikanan. Ning sacrifice sila tanana para maka succeed ilang anak, and maka realize pood ko the things my parents do for me and my siblings is a continuation of the sacrifices of my lolos and lolas. Ma humbled pood ta sa ang humble beginnings of your parents, and your relatives, 'te, kai no matter what, wa jud mo ning give up. You know that? You guys are the true heroes of the Philippines, kai naka succeed mo tanana despite the odds and the hardships.

Naa ang saying "a man is average, but a man who sustains hardships, storms, and yet continues forward, is more than a man. He is a godly man." Mao na ang definition sa ninyo, 'te. I really mean it. The hardships that i have, that my siblings have, and us 1st/2nd generation Fil-Ams is NOTHING compared to the hardships that you guys had to go through. And it makes us really think what hard work is, and was. Inspiring mo tanan, especialamente namo.

God Bless You, all of You!
More Power to you guys!

Thanks, Dong!  I am not trying to solicit sympathy because I don't need that. I am just stating the fact aron way magpataka mag ingon na we didn't know how it is to be poor.  We didn't talk the mountains alright but we talked the ocean to give us fish and we talked our little garden to give us better harvest of kamote.  heheheh  And most of all, we had strong faith that God would help us because we were helping ourselves.

Naa ang saying "a man is average, but a man who sustains hardships, storms, and yet continues forward, is more than a man. He is a godly man." Mao na ang definition sa ninyo, 'te. I really mean it. The hardships that i have, that my siblings have, and us 1st/2nd generation Fil-Ams is NOTHING compared to the hardships that you guys had to go through. And it makes us really think what hard work is, and was. Inspiring mo tanan, especialamente namo.

God Bless You, all of You!
More Power to you guys!

Thanks, Dong!  I am not trying to solicit sympathy because I don't need that. I am just stating the fact aron way magpataka mag ingon na we didn't know how it is to be poor.  We didn't talk the mountains alright but we talked the ocean to give us fish and we talked our little garden to give us better harvest of kamote.  heheheh

Tiya ang uban gusto lang ug hatagan kanunay! Dili na sila maning kamot!

Pwera gabz!

Oi, naa ra diay ka!  Pastilan dear, makujapan man ta nimo ning kalit lang ka sulpot! hahahaha 

Mao jud, Maring, sige lang fret!  Kaluoy sa Ginoo, wa man intawon ga blame among family sa among kapobrihon sa una oi sa gobyerno oi!  Gakalisud mi kay way nahibaluan na trabaho si Daddy.  Naa mi mga fishermen na family members.  Kabalo sila na kon di sila managat, wa sila'y makuha unya usahay naay dimalas pero sa kanunay naay swerte.  Sa panahon na naay daghan kuha na bolinaw igo2x naay masobra ma gamos ug ma buwad busa sa panahon na way kuha, naay ginamos ug buwad makuot pasud-an!

^Dong, I want you to know that I am proud of you. You have unbelievable composure and a level of maturity that belies your age.

The measure of a man is seen by how he reacts when things don't go his way. Others fall apart while others are strengthened by adversity.

If that Archbishop had an ounce of your tact, dodong...we wouldn't be having this discussion in the first place.

I agree, Thyl!  I particularly like this sentence:  The measure of a man is seen by how he reacts when things don't go his way.

Mao jud, Dong!  Wa untay mahitabo sa among kinabuhi if we didn't defy poverty then.  I didn't say we were unhappy then even if at times we didn't have food to eat but we wanted more. we wanted education. we wanted to be able to help our younger siblings get education too.  we wanted better life for our parents when they grow older. and there was no other way but to leave home and work.  of course, it was also because we had so much faith that God would us to our desire to have a change, a better change of the course of our lives.

What would you do if someone you don't know will call you and says that he/she is your half-sibling?

I would welcome him/her.  We don't have enough siblings.  We are only 13 (including Beth).

What would you do if your car breaks down in the middle of a busy street?

Cherry Blossoms in the blue sky. 
                                     

                     

Aya san, dalagita na bitaw jud imong first born ba si Karen/Momoko!  Beautiful girl - like mother like daughter!

nalingaw ko'g tan aw sa mga cute na avatars!  salamat, aya san!

OT:  Aya san, super kilig ko sa imong avatar!  where do you get all these cutie avatars oi!

I have so many relatives in Bohol.  They are so poor but they were like that when Marcos was the president.  Actually, they didn't know they are poor because that's the life they grow up with.  They go fishing, sell their catch, drink tuba and the would do exactly the same the next day and all these years.  We were much poorer then but we worked so hard.  Our parents couldn't afford to send us to high school and college but we persevered.  We wanted to change the course of our life.  We are not rich now, in fact we still consider ourselves as poor because there are times we can't send our sick to the hospital because we don't have money but we are much better now because of hard work, determination and perseverance and not because we expected the previous presidents of the Philippines and GMA to change the course of our lives.  The masang Pilipino or the tenderas are being used by the politicians as icon of poverty.  These people are working hard to earn a living.  Life is tough but we know that already.  And no one has the right to tell me I don't know how it is to be poor because we have been the poorest of poors.

Thank you, Lex, for sharing this good news!  Nice pod oi na naa tay good news from time to time.
