A Sad October...

I wondered what is it with this month and suddenlly a lot of people whether I know personally or knew by either reputation and some even idolized, are suddenly gone from us... I know that we'll eventually go through that path one way or another... but still doesn't rid the feeling of sadness and mourning...

Aside from that work doesn't seem to be a walk in the park as well... with changes here and there... I can already feel my body taking its toll on it... maybe its the stress... maybe its the lack of sleep... or maybe something else I dunno... hopefully by November I can get things back on track... hopefully in time for the holidays ;)

Although I haven't had the time to really watch the news nowadays... I'm still baffled at how this country is still in some sort of identity crisis with itself... I'm too sick to give my two cents now but I'll post it in time...

Until my next update... Peace!!

Truly Super...


But most will remember this sad day as the day the proudest, most noble man they ever knew finally fell. For those who loved him -- one who would call him husband, one who would be his pal, or those who would call him son -- this is the darkest day they could ever imagine. They raised him to be a hero: to know the value of sacrifice, to know the value of life. And for those who served with Superman in the protection of all life comes the shock of a failure: the weight of being too late to help. For a city to live, a man had given his all and more. But it's too late. For this is the day that a Superman died.

Changes...

The only thing constant in the world...

As you may have saw on my previous post, my grandmother just passed away. God bless her soul. As much as you know that death will always be a part of your life, you'll never be immune to the sadness it brings, especially if its someone close to you. Atleast she's in a better place now.

During that time, there will be upcoming changes at work were decisions have to made and a change is imminent. It'll only depend on what kind of change... a change in work venue or a change in work colleagues... I choose the later 'coz its more financially secure and more comfortable for me rather than changing location when in fact I already know will be more expensive and there's just no room for that now with a tight budget...

Then there's my family... although eventually we'll have go our seperate ways... we're about to embark on a sudden change in atmosphere unexpectedly... we decided to have our mom go to the states to have her hips checked out again due to a bad hip replacement done to her a few years back... it'll be a while before she'll come back here... my Dad is off for overseas again to work to help pay for her treatment along with my brother... so that just leaves myself and my twin here... one house... and seven dogs he he he.

change is good... I can manage ;)

In Memoriam...

For everything there is a season,
And a time for every matter under heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate,
A time for war, and a time for peace.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
