A Song for the Soul

AT THE BEST by Aailiyah

ACAPELLA:
Let me know, let me know
Ah – ha, let me know, let me know
Let me know
VERSE 1:
When I feel what I feel
Sometimes it’s hard to tell you so
You may not be in the mood to learn what you think you know
There are times when I find
You want to keep yourself from me
When I don’t have the strength; I’m just a mirror to what I see
CHORUS:
But at your best you are love
You’re a positive motivating force within my life
Should you ever feel the need to wonder why
Let me know, let me know. . .
VERSE 2:
When you feel what you feel
Oh, how hard for me to understand
So many things have happened before this love affair began
But when you feel, oh, like I feel
Confusion can give way to doubt
And there are times when I fall short of what I say,
what I say I’m all about, all about
CHORUS

The harder it becomes 3

This is the 3rd sequel to the other two (you bet!) I think I’m going to give up making money out of this TOO personal blog. This blog will be for my thoughts as a person–a publicized part of being me with the terrifying gravatar. I think I need these NOW: FOCUS, DETERMINATION and INSPIRATION. I’m very much troubled by the possibility of wasting money out of my parent’s pockets. I hope I can OVERCOME the challenges of feeling so LOW.

First step, FOCUS— with focus, I can create plans– through plans, I can pursue action– then fulfillment. I think I’m veering away from my goals as a person. I think I’m looking at other people’s lives– caught up with much awe– overlooking my OWN. That can’t be that bad, isn’t it? My conscience says, IT IS. Just a thought out of nowhere: I think if ever I get a puppy, I’m going to name it COURAGE. Guess where that name came from? From a Nowhere dog! funny—————going back—-(see how I veered)—-now, I’m going to focus on the realities in my LIFE. not their’s, anyone’s or other’s BUT mine.

Bring it on!

DETER— oops— DETERMINATION is such a long word to read so if you don’t have that kind of character to go on–you’ll stop at the 2nd syllable. I have tons of this but the problem is I don’t get things done especially if there are other things bothering me. I’m sure I have determination running in my veins, I’ll get along.

INSPIRATION-we’ll talk about it later.

Now, I do have loads of it too. I find it very interesting as a motivation. From my 2nd sequel, I was out of inspiration but the 3rd one attests to how I’m so filled with it. I’m even getting an unlimited serving! Don’t bother, I’m not sharing! Get loads of inspiration from your loved ones and you’ll never miss a thing.

Did that. Done that. Been there.  The journey never ends the harder it becomes remember the plan. Do you have any? I have one: COURAGE-the cowardly dog once said “The things that you do for LOVE.”

Taginting sa Kanyang Utak: An Essay

“Mariang Makiling” written by Eli Ang Barroso is a piece belonging from Luzon and Southern Tagalog literature. In its short story form, the story was expressed in the richness of the Tagalog language. At the beginning, the reader is already bombarded with the words of the language that seem to have initiated romantic elements found in the story.

Spratly’s dilemma

The issue on Spratly Islands is becoming quite intriguing. What’s the fuss all about? Well. let me guess…it’s because of the island’s innate beauty and richness. Note that “richness” can be taken to mean a lot of things. I have seen Spratly Islands only on news reports. I am amazed by its beauty. It could’ve been one of the hot spot vacation destination. But Spratly has more potential than what meets the eye. I believe that is what the fuss is all about.

I do hope everyone can go along with the tide of countries in tension. I do hope nothing would result to another world war. In this time and place, I do hope that issues get resolved once and for all.
