Sharing Blessings

Every time something good happens to us, make something good happen to someone else. The more we share our blessings, the more we are blessed.

Kaibigan at Pera

Ang kaibigan, hindi tulad ng pera, na pinagpapalit sa materyal na bagay. Hindi rin laging may sukli. Pero alam mo ba ang pagkakatulad nila? Simple lang... Kapag "fake," walang halaga!

Irreplaceable

Butterflies don't know the color of their wings, but human eyes know how nice they are. Likewise, you don't know how special you are, but I know how irreplaceable you can be.

To Be Kind

To be kind is more important than to be right. Sometimes all a person needs is not a brilliant mind that speaks, but a patient heart that listens.

The Greatest Companion

Keep in mind that God is your greatest companion. Because no matter how imperfect you are and no matter what happens in your life, He will still be there to give you the greatest love you've always wanted.

When You Stumble

Sa pagkakaibigan, dapat nagtutulungan.
Kapag nadapa ka, tutulungan kita.
Kapag nadapa ka ulit, itatayo kita.
At kapag nadapa ka na naman, sisipain na talaga kita!
Pambihira! Pilay ka ba?!

Puzzle Piece

You are part of the puzzle of someone else's life. You may never know where you fit. So if you run out of reasons to live, remember that someone else's life can never be complete without you in it.

Optimus Prime Says

We choose how we see people. When we want to like someone, we can be so tolerant. When we want to be irritated by people, we focus on their faults. It's not other people's behavior that determines how we feel about them - it's our attitude.

A Morning Prayer

Thank you, Lord, for another wonderful day. Thank you for not giving up on me. Light my way and be with me once more today.

Friends for Keeps

We don't own the time to have long talks,
We don't have a chance for more laughs.
But even though our worlds don't meet,
Always remember... We're friends for keeps!

Unnoticed Kindness

Do you know why I like silence so much? Because when it's quiet and I'm alone, that's the moment I realize... "Mabait naman pala ako, wala lang nakakahalata."

Flip Side

There are times that we experience downfalls in our lives, seeing how cruel and demented people around us can be. But that shouldn't stop us from realizing that every passing minute is another chance to turn our lives around. Life always has a flip side, and it's never too late to toss the coin again.

Experiencing Happiness

Happiness could not be found at the end of the road, it is experienced along the way. So take not for granted the moments of your life and find reasons to be happy every day!

Easy to Say Good Night

It's hard to say "Hello," because there might be goodbye.
It's hard to say "I'm okay," when deep inside you are not.
But it's easy to say "Good night," because there's always tomorrow.
Have a nice sleep!

Signs of Hope

Mornings are beautiful signs of hope. It was created by God to let us know that life doesn't end after the sunset, every dawn is a new life! Have a wonderful day!

A Loving Friend

A friend is there
To care and respect,
To share and help,
To listen and understand.

So wherever you are
And whatever you do,
Always remember,
A loving friend is here for you!

A Simple Greeting

Simple music can make you sing,
A simple hug can make you feel better.
Simple things can make you happy,
And a simple greeting can make you smile.
So with that, I'm saying, "Hi! Have a nice day!"

Throw Your Worries

Throw your worries to the wind and let them fly to God. In the end, it is He alone who guides the wind to breeze joy and love back to you.

Magsasaka at Kalabaw

Sabi nila, kung magkatabi tayo,
Para daw akong isang magsasaka.
Nagalit ako, tanong ko, "Bakit naman?"
Kaya pala, dahil mukha ka raw kalabaw!

Taning

JUAN: Bai, naa na taning akong kinabuhi. Taman na lang ko karong kadlawon. Teksanay ta tibuok gabii.
PEDRO: Pagpuyo! Sayo pa ko momata ugma. Maayo man ka kay dili na!

Wear Your Prayer Daily

Prayer is a perfume to our soul and a fragrance that pleases GOD. Wear your prayer everyday and let it freshen you anytime, anywhere you go. So have a blessed and sweet-scented day!

Be Worry-Free

Worrying has never solved a problem, never paid a bill, never cured an illness.
Worrying is like racing a car engine in neutral because it doesn't get you anywhere, it just uses up gas!
So stop worrying. All you need is a prayer and a heart full of faith.

Challenges

When challenges are so big that we feel our strength is not enough to carry them, keep on going..
The extra mile is where the grace of God begins.

Matters of the heart

The HEART is rich when it is contented,
and it is always contented when its desires are fixed on GOD.

Nothing can bring greater HAPPINESS than doing GOD's will.

Being wise

It is wiser not to expect, but to hope. For in expecting we meet disappointments whereas in hoping we invite suprises.

Poem of a College Student

I think I shall never see
A grade as lovely as a 3
A 3 that's earned by blood and sweat
When failure is a serious threat
Exams are taken by fools like me
And I can only get a 3!

About Life

Birth is the "Start of Life"
Beauty is the "Art of Life"
Love is a "Part of Life"
Friendship is the "Heart of Life"
Death is a "Last of Life"
But Jesus is the way to "Everlasting Life"

Happiness

Happiness is not something you have in your hands, it's something you carry in your heart. Give it away generously and it will return to you a thousand fold.

Thoughts on Life

Be thankful that you don't have everything you desire.
If you do, what would be there to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know something,
For it gives you the opportunity to learn.

Be thankful for the difficult times,
For during those times you grow.
Be thankful for your limitations,
They give you a chance to become better.

A.S.A.P.

Do you really know what ASAP means?

ASAP is not "As Soon As Possible". We are always in a hurry for things to be done and we sometimes forget God's guidance.

ASAP is "Always Say A Prayer" before anything else. Put God at the center of everything!

Focus

Don't focus on what you lost,
But what remains;
Don't focus on the pain,
But how the pain shaped you;
Don't focus on the failure,
But on the great lessons the failure taught you.

The Best Cosmetic

The best cosmetic...

For the lips is truth,
For the voice is prayer,
For the eyes is compassion,
For the hands is charity,
And for the heart is love.

Wear it daily!

True Friends

Time alone can prove the worth of a person. As time goes by, we lose the false ones, and keep the best. Because true friends stay when all the rest are gone.

What Friendship is About

Friendship is not about "It's your fault,"
But "I'm sorry."
Not "Where are you?"
But "I'm right here."
Not "How could you?"
But "I understand."
And not "I wish you were..."
But "I'm thankful you are."

Real Friends

The Strongest, Greatest, Tallest Person

The strongest person is one who is dependent to God.
The greatest is one who is humble before God.
And the tallest one is one who kneels and bends before God.

So be it unto us. Let's always pray.
