Falling In Love

They say that love makes the world go round. But it is also love that makes people forget. But it is also love that makes people lose their sanity. Thousands of people commit suicide each year they lack love. Love is the thing that spins the universe, and when we fail to deal with love properly, we will surely suffer. 

There are different kinds of love, love for God, love for your family, love for your friends, and love for your work. But there is this kind of love that is so difficult to understand, this is the love for your opposite sex. When we get at the age of teen, this is the usual age when we start noticing the opposite sex. It is the time when you tend to notice their existence.

We often try to impress him, to look good in his eyes, and think of him often times. And when he start to court you, you feel like you are floating, so excited and happy. And when he asked you on your first date, it is as if he is asking you to marry him. It is good to have someone to love and loves you back. Love is definitely necessary for survival. Without it, we lose the will to live, to survive, and it even lessens our physical, mental, and emotional vitality. When we experience love, we glow with radiance that affects our total being.

It has been said that the cure for all the ills and wrongs, the sorrows and the crimes, of humanity lies in one word “love”.

Mike Enriquez & His Wife's Love Story in Wagas

Mike Enriquez has always been my favorite male news anchor in the local scene. He is a well-known and respected journalist in the country. The program Wagas will feature the love story of this veteran journalist and his wife. I really want to watch it because I want to know his life on a personal level. I also found out that they are childless, and I wonder how they still manage to have a longer and lasting love life without having a child.

Let us all watch Wagas on June 22, Satuday, 7PM in GMA News TV. Ramon Bautista will be playing Mike Enriquez and Jennylyn Mercado as his wife.

Loving the Oldies and Elders

How do you love your elders? How do you show your sympathy to them?

Oldies and elders are the people that we need to love more. They must be taken good care by their love ones specially their family. We can provide them shelters to live-in, food to eat and clothing to wear, but are these the only things that we can show how much we care?

Be respectful. Respect is one of the most appropriate way to show to our elders that we love and care for them. Respect be gets respect.

Be polite. Filipino tradition of saying ‘po at opo’ by the Filipino young children to their oldies would mean being polite. They usually use the word ‘po’ and ‘opo’ when having a conversation with their oldies and even to elders as well.

Kissing oldies hands is the most respectful and polite thing we can do to show that we really care for our elders. This tradition is very often during night or when there is an occasion and then your oldies relatives will come at home. But it’s Filipino people’s nature to be respectful all the time that’s why even just in an ordinary day, when you see elders or oldies on your way, take their hands and kiss or put it into your foreheads to show your respect to them.

The Regret

There was this girl named Nicole who always wants her parents to be proud of her. She was the middle child in the family having three children. All of her siblings are girls. She has this feeling that she was not being love by the family. Her parents were not proud of her despite her achievements in life. They only see the achievement of her siblings. They never appreciated her efforts.

During her elementary days, she felt she was imprisoned in the world of books, assignments, quizzes, and projects. It is now that she realized that she had passed her childhood years without enjoying that stage of her life. She never experienced the typical things that a grader can experience. She just merely focused on her studies. What she really wants is to surpass what her elder sister has achieved. Luckily, the fruit of her hardships and efforts was the honor that she has gained. She did not only graduate with diploma but with the honor of being a salutatorian as well. Again, there is still emptiness in her heart.

As the saying goes, “the end justifies a new beginning”, it is indeed a new horizon for her. She was about to enter the world of high school. Of course, she felt the same thing that she had during her first grade in elementary, the fright to enter a new environment.

Time has quickly passed by. She met several people and gained a lot of experiences. She has learned to value time and money. It is in this stage of her life when she met Kyle, her first boyfriend. She discovered the true essence of life. Whenever he was beside her, she felt happy and contended. They painted their high school days very memorable and colorful. They did some crazy stuff and laugh until they run out of breath. It is the happiest moments of her life.

When high school graduation has come, Nicole, Kyle, their friends, and even her fellow students cried a river. It is a heart-breaking moment that has remained in their minds. Goodbyes and farewells have been said and hoping that in the years to come, their paths will meet again. Indeed, high school life is the most memorable stage of every one’s life.

It was summer, the time to find the best college school where they will enroll their desired courses. Nicole was forced to take up medicine course for it is what her father wants. She needs to go to the city for it is the only place where medicine courses are offered. She needs to live there. When she told this thing to Kyle, the latter felt disappointed for he does not want her to be away from him for Kyle is going to take his college degree in their province. But Nicole insists that she does not have any choice. She told Kyle to wait for her until she has received her degree in medicine.

Nicole then went to the city and continued her life. She solely focused on her studies and no communication with Kyle at all. Years have gone by. She never came home in her hometown not until she has something to prove to her father.

Now, as a successful doctor, she has been managing her own hospital in the city. It is now time for her to come back to her hometown. It has been exactly ten years since she has left their province not knowing what will welcome her in her own town.

When she was already in front of their house, she felt she has longed for their house for the entire years that she was away. Even though she has not live in it with so much good memories, still she loves the place for it is where she spent her childhood and teenage years.

When she entered the house, she found out that her sisters were already married. They already have their own children. However, what was surprising is the fact that they never had finished their college courses. Still their father adores her sisters. Nicole felt that even though she exerted effort to become what her father wants her to be, it is still not enough. She does not even felt welcome by her family.

She then walk away and find herself walking into her high school Alma Matter. It is the place where she felt the real happiness, became contented in life, and especially the place where she met Kyle. She wonders where Kyle was and what he has become after ten long years.

She decided to go to the house of Kyle. To her dismay, she found out that her one true love became a priest. She knows that it is what Kyle really wants. However, Kyle promised her that he is not going to enroll in the seminary if she will be willing to be her wife in the future. But she has forgotten about Kyle when she was busy achieving her goal in life.

She ended up getting married with Aaron, the person whom she does not love. She only married Aaron for companionship. Moreover, she decided to get married in the church where Kyle serve and ask Kyle to be the priest who will bind her and her husband as one.

She then concluded that life is really an irony. When she was in high school, she dreamed of Kyle being the person next to him in the altar who will vow that will love her for the rest of their life. However, there is Kyle, present in her wedding, but not as the husband, but as the priest that he has been dreaming of before she meet him.

Still she ended up nothing. She has never received the real happiness in her life for a long time because she does not choose what she really wants.
