Belle, do you subscribe to the notion of physical death and spiritual renewal?

Quote from: wolfpack823 on November 06, 2010, 07:54:57 AM
Generally women do it because of love. Women need it as much as men, but women are not expressive about "jerjer". In the western world, that is a need, women look for it as part of their existence. But, in the 3rd World like the PH, to discuss about it openly is culturally taboo, more so, to openly admit the desires.

Women are privy about their feelings in bed.

Excellent post.

There are many stages of adult development, if we go by the many psychoanalytic, psychiatric methodologies involving adult development processes. All of them are quite pertinent.

It is argued and theorized by many psychologists, psychiatrists, behavioral scientists that any deviation of one adult phase can affect the latter stages.

Question: Was there a phase in your life that you felt truly affected you? That affected your growing up?
Supplementary: How did you cope with the situation, do you feel it was effective?

Do you believe that death is truly the end? Please provide any personal beliefs , share your view.

To: Everyone,

Q: How do you deal with stressors in your life? What kind of coping mechanisms do you utilize?

what is your attitude toward adversity and temptation

Adversity is necessary, it tests and creates character. It proves it worthy. Temptation is a constant in life.

On adversity, there is a verse that comes to mind and I find it quite pertinent on this regard;

James 1:12-15
Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him. When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.

The weather in Chicago is fit in the 'ack' category. Its so cold. Windy and cold.

with the most basic; keeping my place in a queue, really, really lining up, holding the door of public places like stores and restaurants if there's someone following me, and not littering.

(too bad; i do these things but my tolerance for those who don't is so low, i often end up as a scold in public.  that renders me discourteous. ) 

Hehehe, we learn more and more about you each passing day, Isles. You remind me of a woman back in college.

Pariho sa ijang amahan ug inahan. Tell your husband that he is very lucky to have a baby boy. It takes a man to make a man. As the saying goes.

Response: By extending a helpful hand when asked for help, listening to someone who wishes to speak (let them finish without interruption). Counseling those who ask for an opinion, and give it honestly.

Honest deliberation is the best act of courtesy.

Hey, Soul Sister - Train Piano Tribute

A gift from me to you.

thank you islander.

The world seems to be filled with negativity these days, there seems to be threats to one's person, loved ones, and society. We live in a society that has basked with the grandeur of secularism, and with this, the rising tide of religious indifference, threats have risen. As our society continues to battle terrorism , uncertainties may arise. This is natural, and in fact, human instinct finds itself requiring a defensive mechanism.

There are certain aspects where one's defensive mechanisms is seen as harshness, indifference, and spiteful towards others. Clearly this is evident for most of us, even those of us who are quite close to God and walk daily with Him. Given the society we live in, threats to security, the home unit, we as a people have lost that 'trustworthiness' that most of our grandparents, great-grandparents used to live in. And this seems to be a global phenomenon. In the United States, its common to hear older generations of Americans lament on how society has changed as compared to how it was like say 50-60 years ago. A time where it was common to go walking at night, to leave the doors open and unlocked. To eat ice cream with strangeres without fearing any negative consequences.

Nowadays, we hear stories of pedophile rapists taking advantage and predating on un-supervised young, incidents of abuses of the elderly in nursing homes, rampant reports of home invasion and theft, to the all-too-familiar news of rampant homicide cases.

This is also quite common in my homeland, the Philippines, where there are rising cases of sexual tourists who take advantage of the poor and destitute in the Philippines to fill their craving(s), cases of tourism murders, cases of human trafficking and mass exploitation. This effect and change within societies seems to be a global phenomenon. Again, an effect of the unhindered secularism and the loss of the Fear of God.

Brothers and sisters, despite our current circumstance(s), even if the world pits us against our faith, I would like to remind all of you , that there is one force in this world. This force is ever present, ever knowing, ever loving, and requires us to give up our defenses. He wants us to surrender all our fears, our loneliness, our pains, our tribulations, all our troubles to Him. And His Name is Jesus Christ. You see, despite the troubles in your current stage, position in life, there is one who we can be defenseleses with.

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.

The meaning and message of Cornelius' Life for every Christian:


1. God is ever watching, expectant, and patient.
2. God observes every good thing that you do, in this case, Cornelius' giving alms to the poor, and prayers, faith
3. Brotherly kindness is pleasing and proves worthy unto the Divine Throne of God.

Cornelius, the Roman Centurion




Acts 10,
"There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band,
A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God always.

He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an ANGEL of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius.

And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God."

The Love of Christ: The Root of Our Love for One Another



The way this truth fits into the overall series on "The Greatest of These Is Love" is that again and again in the Bible the love of God for us is the root of our love for each other. The reality is that if we do not rest in the love of God for us, we will not be able to love each other. For example, Jesus said in John 13:34,

    A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.

His love for us is first, and ours is an echo of it. John 15:12â€"13,

    This is My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends.

His love for us is before and under our love for each other. And it is a deep, deep, unshakable Calvary love.

Ephesians 4:32â€"5:1,

    Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you. Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children.

All true love begins with this: God in Christ loved us and forgave us. Then he adopted us so that we are called his children. Then he lavished his ongoing love on us in the family. And nowâ€"and only now, on the basis of all thatâ€"he says, "Imitate me." Be imitators of God "as loved children." And mark this! Be an imitator of Godâ€"not as a peon admirer in the audience. Not as an insecure little kid ogling at a ball player's baggy shorts. Not as a beginning musician listening to the CD of her favorite, but unknown, maestro. But, "as loved children." "Be imitators of God as loved children." It's the love of God in Christ for us that draws out and empowers our imitating love for each other. It's because we love the way our Father is that makes us want to be that way.

Welcome back, Buwadsanga!!

hehe, handsome German Shepherds.

In this day in age, particularly in the natural character of man, there seems to be a sense of limitation. There is a limit to how one can take stress of the environment around, a limit to how much one can can bear the stress of work environment, a limitation to how one can endure the pains of a broken heart. Indeed, we all know this. Even nature functions in a limit-based systemic cycle: there is a limit to a food source to sustain a herbivory, likewise, there is a limit a predated food source can support a predatory species.

The world seems to be based on limited causality , limited sustainability, limited expected returns, limited responses.

What I would like to bring up with you , brothers and sisters, is that despite the fact that the world fills us with limitations, there is a source , a power, a well spring from which all good things, from which all things come from. This source, is the very fabric that keeps all things together, all time, all perceptions of reality in sync and in unison. This is the Love of God. The Precious Heart of Jesus Christ, Our Lord and Savior.

Christ tells us that there is no limitation to His Love for us, and this was best displayed in His willingness to take up the cross, and to die for us , His most precious blood spilt instead of our own. That, brothers and sisters, is the best example of unlimited Love. Unselfish Love.

Holy Scripture reiterates Christ's Unlimited Love in Romans Chapter 5 Verses 1-11:

"Therefore having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we exult in hope of the glory of God. And not only this, but we also exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us. For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through him. For if while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. And not only this, but we also exult in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation."


Yes, the world may set us against our faith, our innate nature to sin may cause us to commit ourselves unworthy of Christ, however, know that Christ does not see you as 'undeserving' souls. You are beloved in His Eyes. Remember, that He was nailed on that cross, beaten, and bruised, and died for you and I. He is, truly, the only example of an Unlimited Love.

Good to hear that, brod Vince. At first ma 'katul-katul' ang baji pero in the long run, she will go crazy with you having it. Ma completo ang halik-halik, tilap tilap.

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort,  who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.
--2 Corinthians 1:3


About praising God in difficult times…

You are not an island separated from your environment by a vast sea. It is doubtful that you wear protective suits of armor or suits to protect you from toxins in the air. You are a very vulnerable human being who responds to your environment, to your surroundings, to the news of the world, to other people, to inner and outer conflicts, to the rage, and to the love that is a part of your world. You (along with the rest of us) live your life as if you are in a soup made up of both the force and power of the Holy Spirit and the dark forces from Satan. You are pushed and pulled in different directions on different days. As you are pushed and pulled, you are to praise God. Not for God’s sake, but for your sake. As you are pushed and pulled, one of the ways you can praise God is to humbly tell Him you love Him. You can speak these words as your silent prayer and you can show Him you love Him by finding ways to pass on His love. Then others who receive His love from you will also find Him in their hearts and souls.

Praise God even in hard times



“17 Though the fig tree does not blossom, and no fruit is on the vines; though the produce of the olive fails, and the fields yield no food; though the flock is cut off from the fold, and there is no herd in the stalls, 18 yet I will rejoice in the LORD; I will exult in the God of my salvation.”
--Habakkuk 3:17-18

Guapa kaayo ang Leytena, diba, Vince?   

It is amazing how I truly connected to Leyte when I arrived. The winds that brushed my bearded face, the sun that darted on my brown skin, the sounds of the people, the faces of family whom I've never seen or met before (yet they knew of me!).

I saw and met my Lolo Nono (my paternal grand-uncle; the younger brother of my paternal grandmother).
The first time I saw him, he came to me and with his two hands, brushed my beard and laughed and exclaimed, "Rico kaayo, Dong, pariho ka sa imong papa! Rico kaayo!" (Rico is my father's nick name. lol)

We had dinner in lolo Nono's house; and sat with my grand-auntie, my uncles, aunts, cousins, and extended relatives in Padre Burgos.
It was so merry, so jolly-filled, so many stories being told, so many memories of old times, stories of my grandfather, my grandmother, my great-grandfather and great-grandmother, etc.

I felt so at home. I had to take a break from the merry time to think and take everything in. It was this time that I had to glorify God for the bounty of this feast, the magnitude of his Providence and of his Graces...for uniting me with my family, extended family.

All that I had asked for, prior to leaving for the Philippines, was given and granted by His Grace. I could not ask for anything more, as it was given.

Returning back to the house, I felt such a joyous feeling within me. A feeling of contentedness, completeness.

I realized that at that moment in time that I belonged there, that this happened for a reason. And opened a new chapter in my life, the realization of
My Leyteno blood and roots. My people. My island....

From the Christian perspective or point of view I am always awed (and wowed) by the amazing wonders all around us (indeed, there is a touch of heaven everywhere!). And Bohol has plenty of them, needless to say. What I'm WARY ABOUT is what people (esp. those hiding behind the facades of big corporations and masks of powerful political figures) do to these wonderful creations, and to poor people, who are basically dependent on these God-given wonders. I may sound suspicious but I can't read motives either. Based on historical facts the locals or the poor people from a particular area are usually the ones who suffer the most if and when our fears become a reality. God forbid if that happens to our beloved Bohol and to our fellow Boholanos. But it's happening everywhere!!!

To be honest, I personally liked the way the Japanese project (JAICA) did in the early 80's... they came and taught us (Boholanos and Pinoys alike) how to be good farmers. Pero gahi lang jud nig mga ulo ning mga Pinoy kay magbuot jog ilaha (WA SUNDA MGA GITUDLO SA HAPON UNSAON PAGTANOM UG HUMAY HEHEHEHE). Their investment was in helping us "learn how to fish" in our own backyard, rather than "fishing in our own backyard and bring the harvest to Japan." Meaning, kung akoy pagbut-on, I prefer if foreign investors (I wonder if you can call one if they are not for profit) teach our locals how to manage and/or make use of our natural resources using scientific ways and/or modern technology. I'm sure we haven't even tapped the best ways to celebrate (aw!) our nature's giftedness. 

I like your examples, Father Lungay. Yes, I agree with you that our Island of Bohol is indeed a paradise on Earth. With such bountiful treasures , our island and our people should be proud of the raw natural resources that we are blessed with. And with the potential for future growth. This said, I remain optimistic for Bohol's progress, especially towards a green-environmentally-friendly agenda.

 

hehehe 

When I visited Pintuyan, Southern Leyte, I was rather amazed at how many relatives I have there. There is a barrio there that are filled with Lucinos (my family surname). Then as I visited the municipal hall in Pintuyan I was able to talk to the elected officials, police forces. My grand-uncle (Hon. Cipriano Lucino) was mayor of Pintuyan for 3 terms, and his son also sat as mayor for 1 term. So when I visited the place, it was a nice turn out of relatives, friends, and town officials.

Its good to see my father's side. My Leyteno side. I am 1/2 boholano and 1/2 Leyteno.

Southern Leyte is just like Bohol, albeit less developed. This past July 2010 was the first time I visited the province (the home province of my paternal grandparents: my paternal grandfather was from Pintuyan and my paternal grandmother was from Padre Burgos) and my first impression of the province was awe. Maasin was developed, similar to Tagbilaran some 15 years ago. The houses are closer to each other in Southern Leyte, as compared to Bohol (which are more spaced out). The people in Southern Leyte are as friendly and hospitable as in Bohol; and are quick to mass in numbers to see who the 'new guy' is in town. lol.

I loved it there.

B-OHOL, Land of the famous chocolate hills
Cradles the smallest primate ever to exist,
The world renown Philippines tarsiers
That loves to cling upon rubout small trees
As they stare with their round eyes so big.

O-ver its verdant valleys, I have seen many hills
With wonderful sceneries sharing nature's gifts
As they speak to us geographical mysteries
And nature's wonder with the beautiful hills
Scattered around with their perfect cone shapes.

H-eaven I behold when I reach the famous hills
and extend my eye upon the horizon of the hills
For I have seen nature's captivating sceneries
of cone shape hills that radiates God's mysteries
And his artistic inclination when he made all these.

O-ver the sky, birds from the heaven fly with glee
As they sing with song of praises as they are free
To soar upon the blue sky as they enjoy the scenery
With a promise that they will never destroy the beauty
Of this abode and sanctuary of nature's tapestry.

L-ove our land and never rape its wealth and beauty
But be stewards of God in protecting all its scenery
with all it creation upon its wide verdant valleys
Like the birds, the tarsiers and other wildlife sanctuary

For our children's children to behold these someday

Really? A secret plan? Then how come it's all over the news in July 2009? And 30 mayors also signed the MOU. Secret plan you say? Yeah, Tsolox has a point. Can we blame one man why "everybody" else just seems to have stumbled upon this MOU?

Lorenzo and Islander's exchange is enlightening. But I hold the view that tagging this seaweeds plantation project a "scandal" is tainted with malice and an example of sensationalism.

I will wait how this will unfold. I reserve judgment.

This changes everything. It seems that the former Governor did not act solely by himself, but with consent from municipal elected officials.

"But if a widow has children or grandchildren, these should learn first of all
to put their religion into practice by caring for their own family
and so repaying their parents and grandparents, for this is pleasing to God."

--1 Timothy 5:4

"Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father
means caring for orphans and widows in their distress
and refusing to let the world corrupt you."
James 1:27

For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities -- his eternal power and divine nature -- have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.
Romans 1:20

Thank you for this info, Manay Tess.

God have mercy on their souls. May perpetual light shine on them, O Lord.

there is a possibility that the koreans are only interested in bohol's gold treasures. the japanese have been using this kind of tactic. they will build a building or bridge, as donation, but the japanese are actually digging treasures.

on the bioethanol plantation of the koreans, we should remember that not a single drop of biofuel will go to bohol. the foreigners will exploit our natural resources but bohol will never be benefited.

we should also remember that this is not a small project. it will cover 1,000,000 hectares. i repeat 1 million hectares. every inch of the sea of Bohol will be a no-fisherman zone. all our small fishers will fish somewhere else outside the gmo-infested seaweeds plantation.

what will happen to the ecosystem when everything is covered with seaweeds? there will be an imbalance of nature. everything in the seas will die as millions or billions of seaweeds will dominate the seas.

again, not a single drop of biofuel will be used in bohol. everything will be shipped to korea.

i rest my case. it's either you favor the foreigners or you pity the 1.2 million boholanos who will never be able to eat fish fished out of bohol seas.

You have a point, US of A. If this project is to be secured, at least some of the proceedings and output should be shared unto the local population. If only the Philippine Government was not so corrupt, it would have actively procured such initiatives for the good of the people instead of filling their own pockets.

You're pretty cool J-cube.

lol, there is beauty in a woman's laugh. 

The concern I have is the fact that the contract is for 50 years, with a planned extension of 25 years.

It seems that Bohol has been made to commit more than its feasible share in green energy production. I remember that Bohol has also committed itself to hundreds of hectares in jatropha cultivation. Whatever happened to this one? I believe that if we grab every dollar-denominated offer being dangled before us, Bohol will no longer have arable land for grain production.

With the recent typhoon leveling most of northern Luzon's grain, will we turn again overseas for our basic rice needs? Last year, our much vaunted excess in rice self-sufficiency has already slipped below 80%.

Given the vast area and the number of people involved in this bioethanol project, why such secretive and hasty manner to clinch this project? Why so late a call for public consultation? Not only are we making a high-stakes gamble on our people's livelihood, we are also sending wrong signals to foreign investors about our business policy.

Tito Ben,

I agree with you in that it is quite alarming that this project was quite secretive, tho I must admit I am quite happy to hear that Bohol has interest(s) in cooperating in green-energy, quite thrilled actually.

I would also like to know how many provinces are involved in this project.
