Mao lagi. And the most beautiful moments are when we are up late studying. I review for Medical Biochemistry and Medical Physiology, and she does the same. We quiz each other, encourage each other.

She sees me yawn in the wee hours of the night, without even asking for anything, she gets up and brews me my favorite ginger honey tea.

Beautiful. It is the simple things that I appreciate. Simple, indeed, is beautiful.

This is where my younger sister was baptized in. Back in 1987.
Beautiful Cathedral.

Tiger is very lucky to have a loving and understanding wife. I commend him for going to the sex addiction clinic.
She is a good wife to stick by her husband, and he is lucky to have an understanding wife. She must, indeed, truly love him. Big Time.

Sitting in front of her. Drinking a cup of ginger honey tea that she prepared for me, my eyes gazing into hers.
But before I can say anything she softly says, "I love you so much, baby..."
Literally stealing the words out of my mouth.

Speechless and in adoration, I continue to gaze into her eyes. Sip some more tea. Her eyes affixed to mine.

The Literal Translation of 'Dandansoy':

Dandansoy, I will leave you,
I am going home to Payao.
If ever you feel lonely,
Just look towards Payao.
Dandansoy, if ever you decide to follow,
Don’t bring any water.
If ever you get thirsty,
Make a well along the road.

Dandasoy, Ilonggo (Western Visayas,Philippines)folk song.

Mr. Koddi, I have a question for you.

Why do the Illongos use the suffix 'soy' alot?
And when they talk they end a phrase with a 'Haw' or 'Ha' hehehe

Is this a Visayan trait to use the suffix 'SOY' or is this just an Illongo trait?

I know that Max Surban, a Cebuano, also wrote a song 'TURAGSOY'.
What does that mean?

Salamat!!

Quote from: Koddi Prudente on January 27, 2010, 11:09:35 PM
The original version of Dandansoy is Hiligaynon. It is a folksong of the Ilonggos. Another song with similar title ("Kundansoy" . . . inom tuba laloy) is sung mostly in Sugbuanong Binisaya.

hahaha. yes Mr. Koddi. I never heard of the song 'Dandansoy' until my gf sang it to me a while ago.
It is sung as if it is a bedtime song for little kids. I was dazzled by the lyrics...the song is the inspiratory engine that has instilled me in the drive to learn more about the Illongo dialect of BISAYA.

Thank you for this amazing historical tid bit, Mr. Koddi.

The Veiling Ceremony.



Together, they pin a veil from the groom's shoulders, extending it to cover the bride's head and shoulders. This is symbolic of the groom pledging his strength and protection to his bride - the wife who he promises to take care of, from this day forward.

Beautiful symbolism...

Dear Love,

I have whispered to the winds to send you another message,
I have sung to the stars to twinkle and shine brighter for you, as you shine brightly in my mind.

Sweetest of all nectars, my heart of hearts, the woman who holds my heart in thy precious soft palm,
sleep gently tonight knowing that your lover and man ushers prayers for you before the Judgement seat of Christ.
Sleep peacefully knowing that you are the image that I close my eyes to. And the bright light that I open my eyes to in the morning.

The Lord's Blessings and Graces continue to follow us, and protecting us in this life.
May the Lord be always Kind to us. May His Love, the wellspring and source of our love for each other, always abound in our hearts and minds.

For me, I see the positives in tissue cloning and organ cloning as it can be beneficial in medical procedures. Pero in regards to total human cloning, am in the contra.

mmmm, Mr. Daray, lami ni i sugbahon!

My beloved Mother and My beloved Father; their Wedding.
Beautiful. Their wedding was held in the Catholic Church in Valencia.
The Love that they have for each other since their union has produced 4 children.
By Grace of The Lord God Who Reigns In Heaven and Earth.

The Different Wedding Ceremonies:



The Wedding Rites

The Bride and her Father marches to the altar. The Groom meets them, and all three will face the Priest/Minister. The question of who gives the bride away is asked, to which the bride's Father answers, "I do" . He then gives her daughter's hand to the groom, after which he takes his designated seat in the front row with his wife.

The Exchange of Vows follow.

Ring Ceremony: The Priest/Minister may, at this point bless the Bride, Groom and rings with holy water. He holds their hands together in unity, then they exchange rings.

Arrhae or Coin Ceremony: The Priest/Minister then drops 13 pieces of coins (silver or gold) called arras into the Groom's waiting hands, who in turn drops it into the Bride's hands. The Bride then puts her hand above the Groom's then drops the arras into his hands again. The Groom allows the coins to then be dropped into a plate held by an acolyte.

The metal tinkling of the coins being passed from one pair of hands to the other, is a distinctive reminder of the groom's promise to take care of his wife materially. The bride in return, by giving back the coins to his hands, convey that what they both earn become part of each other's. The trickling sound also signifies abundance and success in the couple's joint efforts. The husband gives his material earnings to his wife who manages, saves and invests the money wisely, as basic Filipino tradition dictates.

Veil Ceremony: In the Catholic ceremony, the Priest continues with the nuptial mass until the "Sanctus". When the bell for the Sanctus rings, it is also a signal for the veil sponsors to come up to the altar. In Protestant ceremonies, the Minister explains the veil ceremony to the congregation and this constitutes as the cue for the veil sponsors.

Together, they pin a veil from the groom's shoulders, extending it to cover the bride's head and shoulders. This is symbolic of the groom pledging his strength and protection to his bride - the wife who he promises to take care of, from this day forward.

Cord Ceremony: The Cord Ceremony follows immediately after. The Cord Sponsors come up to where the Bride and Groom are kneeling, and put a figure of eight cord over the veils that are on the heads and shoulders of the Bride and Groom. This cord symbolizes unity and infinity - a love together, forever!

Candle Ceremony: The Candle Ceremony is first and last. As soon as all the primary and secondary sponsors have been seated, the Candle Sponsors proceed to the altar where they light the two side candles beside the middle and larger (unity) candle. This represents the two lives and two spirits who will be joined together.

Towards the end of the ceremony, at a signal from the Priest/Minister, the Bride and Groom come up and approach the candles. They each take the smaller candles, and use it to light the middle unity candle. This means that from then on, their lives go together, kindled as one.

Different version by Ronan Keating

when you say nothing at all- Ronan Keating

Lyrics


It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
Old Mr. Webster could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

Jesus asked the scribes and Pharisees this question because of their sin (Matthew 23:13-36).
Jesus warns us about hell. Of the twelve passages in the New Testament containing the word ‘hell’ from the Greek word γέεννα, eleven are spoken by Christ. Six of them also contain the word sin.

Sin and hell are not popular words.
Are sin and hell really as bad as Jesus says? “If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having two hands, to go to hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched” (Mark 9:43).
Some who call themselves Christians are embarrassed by what Jesus says about hell, so they abolish hell by teaching that everyone will be saved (universalism) or that hell is not eternal (annihilationism).
Jesus taught, however, that only few will enter the small gate and be saved, and that weeping and gnashing of teeth await the others (Luke 13:23-28).

He also taught that the fire of hell will be unending: “And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire -- where ‘Their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched’” (Mark 9:47, 48). Both the punishment and the reward are everlasting: “And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life” (Matthew 25:46).

Some use Jesus’ teaching about hell as an excuse to reject Him. The atheistic philosopher, Bertrand Russell, wrote: "There is one very serious defect in Christ’s moral character, and that is that he believed in hell. I do not myself feel that any person who is really profoundly humane can believe in everlasting punishment" (Bertrand Russell, Why I Am Not A Christian, New York: Simon and Schuster, 1957, p.17).

We can question Russell’s qualifications to judge the morality of Jesus since he believed that sex outside of marriage was not necessarily immoral, advocated trial marriages and believed in easy divorce. He was married four times and had many extramarital affairs.

It is understandable that immoral people do not like what Jesus says about sin and hell.
Yet we will discuss the objections that some raise against this teaching of Jesus.

Two basic arguments are made: (1) hell is too severe as punishment; (2) God’s nature is incompatible with eternal punishment.
Here are some statements by people who make the first objection. “Eternal punishment for a mere lifetime of sin? How just is that?” “No finite act or sum of finite acts (which is itself finite) could be of sufficient severity to merit infinite punishment.” “Is it not plain that sins committed in time and space cannot deserve limitless retribution?”

This objection is simply an expression of man’s desire to make light of sin. How can the severity of sin be measured? Sin is a violation of God’s will. Thus, God is the One who determines its seriousness. Eternal punishment reveals the seriousness of sin!
Because of His love for man, and the terrible consequences of sin, Jesus makes clear how bad sin is: “If your hand or foot causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet, to be cast into the everlasting fire. And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire” (Matthew 18:8, 9).
Jesus also indicated the seriousness of sin is by taking our punishment upon Himself and dying in our place so we can be saved from the eternal consequences of sin, if we repent and accept the grace and forgiveness offered through Him.
It is presumptuous to claim that punishment in hell is too severe. Hell proves how serious sin is.
Does eternal punishment conflict with the nature of God?

This involves asking why God does certain things. We should remember the question God asked Job: “Would you indeed annul My judgment? Would you condemn Me that you may be justified?” (Job 40:8 ).
What questions are asked by people who object to the idea of hell? Notice that each question is actually an attempt to blame God for sin.
Why did God make man able to sin?

Well, man can sin; that much is certain. So maybe the first question should be: what characteristic enables man to sin?
Angels are also able to sin: “For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment; and did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, with seven others, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly; and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly; and delivered righteous Lot, who was oppressed by the filthy conduct of the wicked (for that righteous man, dwelling among them, tormented his righteous soul from day to day by seeing and hearing their lawless deeds) -- then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations and to reserve the unjust under punishment for the day of judgment” (2 Peter 2:4-9). Sinful angels were banished to hell and the unrighteous will share their punishment: “Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels” (Matthew 25:41).

What characteristic enables men and angels to sin? They are not robots, but are self-directing beings. Why did God create them that way? I guess He wanted men and angels, rather than robots. Why? Well, would you rather have a robot or a child with whom you can have a voluntary loving relationship?

One could make a cute little robot with an electronic eye, and program it so that when it ‘saw’ you, it would come rolling toward you, throw out its arms and say, “I love you! I love you!” Would that be love? The God of love had more in mind.
“Then God said, ‘Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.’ So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Then God blessed them, and God said to them, ‘Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth’” (Genesis 1:26-28).
God created man to rule. What did He tell Cain about sin? “If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it” (Genesis 4:7).
Man is accountable because his sin results from his own choice.
Another question is asked: Since God is all-powerful and has foreknowledge, why does He not only allow people to be born who will choose what is right?

That God is all-powerful does not mean that He can do contradictory things. When God gives man a choice, it must be a real choice, not a make-believe choice, because that is no choice at all. A choice exists only if there is a real alternative.
God’s knowledge of the future is not deterministic but observational, just like our knowledge of the past is observational. God exists outside of time, but man must make his choice in the course of time.

In fact, God allows people to be born even though He knows that all of them will sin (Romans 3:23). He does this because He has a plan by which any of them who wants to can be saved! “And the Spirit and the bride say, ‘Come!’ And let him who hears say, ‘Come!’ And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely” (Revelation 22:17).
By objecting to hell, people try to blame God for their sins.

In Ezekiel’s day the people were complaining: “If our transgressions and our sins lie upon us, and we pine away in them, how can we then live?” (Ezekiel 33:10). They tried to blame God that they were burdened by sin. Ezekiel was to tell them: “‘As I live,’ says the Lord God, ‘I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live. Turn, turn from your evil ways! For why should you die?’” (Ezekiel 33:11). In stead of complaining, they just needed to repent!
Another question people ask is: How can a good God send anyone to hell? Paul wrote to people who refused to repent: “Do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?” (Romans 2:4).

God in His great goodness and mercy is willing to forgive and sanctify the vilest sinner who repents. If we believe in Jesus, repent of our sins, confess our faith and are baptized, we can be forgiven (Acts 2:38).
When people refuse to repent, they may not blame God for the consequences. Paul continues: “But in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, who ‘will render to each one according to his deeds’: eternal life to those who by patient continuance in doing good seek for glory, honor, and immortality; but to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness -- indignation and wrath, tribulation and anguish, on every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek; but glory, honor, and peace to everyone who works what is good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For there is no partiality with God” (Romans 2:5-11).

God’s judgment is righteous. He would not be just if He left sin unpunished. Since everyone sins, everyone deserves punishment.
Yet, there is a difference among people. It is not that some are sinless and some are not. The difference is that some believe in God, love Him, and want to do what is right (although they fall short), whereas others turn their back on God.
God would be unjust if He showed favoritism. He cannot just pass over the sins of those who love Him and are trying to do what is right, because they too have sinned.

Thus He sent His Son who lived a life without sin and did not deserve to die (John 10:17, 18). Jesus allowed himself to be crucified to pay the penalty for our sins, “who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness -- by whose stripes you were healed” (1 Peter 2:24 - See Isaiah 53:5).
Hell is not too severe a punishment for sin, and God’s nature is not incompatible with eternal punishment, since He has provided a way of escape through the sacrifice of Christ.

I know that sin and hell are as bad as Jesus says, because reliable evidence and testimony prove that He is the Son of God and knows what He is talking about. He fulfilled the Old Testament prophesies about the coming King.
His life and teaching prove that He is the Messiah. “He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son. And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son” (1 John 5:10, 11).
As the officers said, who came back empty-handed after they were to arrest Jesus: “No man ever spoke like this Man!” (John 7:46). What was the testimony of the Roman soldiers who crucified Christ? “So when the centurion and those with him, who were guarding Jesus, saw the earthquake and the things that had happened, they feared greatly, saying, ‘Truly this was the Son of God!’” (Matthew 27:54).

No one has ever shown more love for His fellow man than Jesus. Thus when He warns us about hell, we should listen.
“And I say to you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear Him who, after He has killed, has power to cast into hell; yes, I say to you, fear Him!” (Luke 12:4, 5).

Grandma found her sitting on the couch, with her Bible and a devotional booklet on her lap. She wanted to follow the example of spending time with God at the beginning of the day.

Timothy, a young pastor, faced heavy responsibilities in the church at Ephesusâ€"training believers, leading in worship, countering false doctrine. The older, experienced apostle Paul gave him instruction on leading the church in these areas, but he also mentioned the importance of personal conduct. He said, “Be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity” (1 Tim. 4:12).

Paul challenged Timothy: “Take heed to yourself and to the doctrine” (v.16). If he paid attention to his own spiritual life and to solid doctrine, he would be a godly example to the church family.

We all have others who are observing us. Even little Alyssa has younger siblings watching her. Let’s live our lives in such a way that those who follow our example will help others in their walk with God.  â€" Anne Cetas - Our Daily Bread

Absolutely!

1 John 3:18
Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.

Even before man came to be, the WORD OF GOD was already there.

For the Word was in the Beginning.

THE DIVINE WORD, is JESUS CHRIST.

John 1:1

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

1 John 4:8
Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.

Because The Bible is the Word of God.

And God is Love.

And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”

-Revelation 21:3-4

Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness, to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love. For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

-2 Peter 1:2-8

Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.

-Ephesians 4:31-32

Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven. “Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

-Matthew 5:10-12

Remember brothers!

HE that lives within YOU is GREATER than he that lives in the world.

JESUS CHIRST WHO IS LORD lives within you who believe in HIM.
And CHRIST is greater eternally than the devil satan who is the god of this earthly world.

You who believe will be sanctified in Grace and rewarded with Eternal Life.
Blasphemers and unbelievers will perish in the Lake of Fire. Destined to An Eternity of Hell.

REPENT AND BE SAVED!

FOR SALVATION IS NIGH!

But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear; having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed.

-1 Peter 3:15-16

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

-2 Timothy 3:16-17

Without the LORD , I am nothing. But with the LORD, entrusting all that I do to the LORD's GUIDANCE, I accomplish in modesty in JESUS Name. His Glory manifested in my fruits.

For the LORD's promise is TRUE. For the LORD rewards those who TRUST him.

So, brothers remember:

TRUST and BELIEVE in the LORD'S WORD.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

-Proverbs 3:5-6

The Lord sees through you, your heart. And your fruits give testament to your faith in the LORD.

Have little faith, and you shall bear little fruit or none.
Have great faith and  your fruit shall bear testament to your faith.

The Word of the Lord declares Truth.

Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, And whose hope is the LORD. For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, Which spreads out its roots by the river, And will not fear when heat comes; But its leaf will be green, And will not be anxious in the year of drought, Nor will cease from yielding fruit. “The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it? I, the LORD, search the heart, I test the mind, Even to give every man according to his ways, According to the fruit of his doings.

-Jeremiah 17:7-10

But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
1 Corinthians 2:14

mga kaigsoonan, na-prove na ba medically nga maka-sapyot og lubot ang too much ol-ol? basin hinoon sa atong kahadlok nga magka-prostate cancer, igo na lang ilingkod and mahabilin sa atong lubot. 

Bol-anon sa pluto, walay truth aning rumor.

If a person is a chronic and severe masterbator, the only harm would be tension on the penile dermal tissue and friction rubbing could lead to tears in tissue if the individual is not using lubrication to prevent microscopic tears.

As for the false rumors of 'running dry', there is no truth to that. The human male produces about 30 million to 100 million sperms a day, which is distributed evenly in the ejaculate produced. When a man releases ejaculate, this is not composed 100% of all sperm, no, ejaculate is nothing but fluid produced by the glands that provides a protein source for the sperm that provides protection for the sperm when it enters the vagina's extremely acidic environment. An active male (sexually) will produce 20 cc or more of ejaculate daily. The more active the individual, the higher the ejaculate volume produced; but the sperm count distribution will stay thesame.

There is no truth to the rumor that excessive masturbation will cause male infertility; on the contrary, it will only facilitate greater sperm count and a larger ejaculate volume produced; which in turn will help in greater chances of fertilization success during sexual intercourse.


Hope that helps.

Best,
Lorenzo

Amen.

Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.
-1 John 3:18

How Much should we Love the Lord our God?



Jesus replied: " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment.
â€" Matthew 22:37-39

Be Just and confident in your faith. The Lord will strengthen you and deliver you. His Promise is Eternal.

For the LORD loves the just and will not forsake his faithful ones. . .
- Psalm 37:28

Love The Lord Your God, for He shall shower Love upon you and your seed.

Hark!

Know therefore that the LORD your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commands.
- Deuteronomy 7:9

The Power of a JUSTIFIED Love:

I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
- Galatians 2:20

Colossians 3:14
And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.

"When You Say Nothing At All"

Alison Krauss - When You Say Nothing At All

Love this song...love it...love it.

Baji nga reina sa ahong dughan,

Ako ay laki nga staunch ang view ug prudent ug uber conserbitibo,
Dili ko dali mo give in sa opposition, mo defend ko jud,
pero ug in regards to you, di ko gusto mo argue.
Di ko mo angay mo rebut,
Ug mo sapot ka, ma hilom ko dali.
Ug na suko ko, mo ingon ra ka, "Hipos na", and di na jud ko mo tingong. ha ha ha!

Strikta ka kaayo, pero justified kaayo imong ipakastrikta.
Observant ka kaayo, analytical, ug compassionate sa mga tawo.
Naka obserbar galing ko nimo sa una; ning adto man ta sa supermarket and naka kita ka ug tiguwang nga tawo, when i turned around naka kita ko that you were helping this old lady pick a perfect wheat bread loaf.

Buutan kaayo.
Maginoo pa gajud.
Maka kita pood ko nimo ning ampo, o maka kita ko ning rosary ka, ma humbled man ko.
Kai, baji, sobrang sobrang intellihente man ka, sobrang bright, pero dakog imong trust sa Ginoo.
Naa ud kay positive effect nako.

Gugma ko nimo.
Pariho jud ning ahong feeling sa kantang "USAHAY"
"Usahay, nagadamgo ako
Nga ikaw ug ako nagkahigumaan
Nganong damguhon ko ikaw
Damguhon ko kanunay sa akong kamingaw

Usahay, nagamahay ako
Nganong nabuhi pa
Nianing kalibutan
Kay nganong gitiawtiawan
Ang guma ko kanimo
Kanimo, da."
