to my ever caring and loving lolo..

"Sorrow comes in great waves...but it rolls over us, and though it may almost choke us.it passes and we remain." 

He was a father, a brother and a friend to all of us. I’m sure each and every one of you here today has something to share on how my grandfather touched your life. He shared a lot of good memories, especially with us, his grandchildren. We shared lots of things together. Partz as I call him was a very strong man and he always got her way. A man as humble and loving as Partz will always be remembered by those of us who knew him and loved him. Although we will miss him, his smile, his pranks, his love, we take consolation in the good feelings of our memories.

Since my mom is teaching, gina bilin kami ni mommy kanday lolo.. Sa bilog nga adlaw, si lolo kag si lola lng ang gabantay sa amon. Kung hapon, gina patulog kami ni lolo.. kung indi ganei kami mag tulog ga promise siya sa amon na baklan ya kami chocolate mag bugtaw kami.. pag bugtaw namun, may cloud 9 na nga gahulat sa amon.  Sometimes, gina upod ya na kami mag kadto sa iya uma while riding on his karosa.. saja2 gd kami everytime magpauma siya kay masakay naman kami sa karosa ni LOLO..  When we started studying where my mother used to teach, mejo kis a na kami ga kit anay ni lolo.. ga kadto lng kami sa ila ni lola every weekends and kung may special occasions. But sometimes , ga kadto siya sa uma, sa balay.. u will know if ara siya kung mag lagatik na ang mga taklob sang kaldero kag spoon and fork.. ma ask na siya dayun, ano dapli nu dyan? Since indi pde kay lolo ang too much fatty and oily foods, gina saway siya namun. Ga pati man siya. Kis-a.. Everytime we get perfect on our daily quizzes or even exams, gna tipon namun ang amun mga paper kag I baligya kay LOLO kag daddy.. excited kami na dayun puli kay may money naman kami halin sa iya.. I can still remember , gna bakal ya tag 50 cents every perfect na paper namun… since si lolo amun una nakadtuan, wala na si daddy baklun na perfect quiz kay gn bakal na ni lolo tanan.  everytime may special occasion, gina hulat ya gd na kami tanan mag alabot before mag start.  Mag kadto na siya sa balay, gina sugo niya kami na nga I on ang tv kay malantaw siya kuno boxing or basket. After an hour, tulog na siya ya ga nganga2 sa sofa.. kis a gapungko pa na nga tulog nga may kalo pa kag baston  nga gna ipit ya sang tuhod ya.. kung munuhon muh na siya ganei, I deny ya  pa na nga tulog siya.. when I graduated,he awarded me my medal.I can see it in his eyes, that he was so happy and proud..  when I stepped 18, partz was my 2^nd dance. Maski nabudlayan na siya mag saot2, gn saot ya ko jpun. Na sajahan gd na siya pag kumpleto kami sa balay niya.. maski gahod kag gamo, tulukon ya lng na kami kag mag kadlaw man. When partz was admitted, gn hambalan ya kami ni G.B na baklan siya knu namun shaver kay law ay na siya knu.. and everyone in the room just laugh. When he was sent back to the hospital , we were there from the ER to the ICU. And I can see how Partz struggled and fought His last battle.  From there I can say that he’s a very strong man. as I entered the ICU, I wanted to tell him lots of stuffs, but all I did was cry. 2 days after q pa nabal an na wala na si lolo.. I already had the feeling but it was the time pa nga nakita ko na siya lying in his coffin, tanan nag sink in na sakon.. wala na ko Lolo.. wala na si Partz..wala na ko mongo bread..

We may no longer see him but we’ll always have these special moments we shared with him. He will always have a special part in our hearts. Let’s just be thankful that we knew a great man like my grandfather. As what my tito nuk said pasalamat ka kay lolo mo so Guyo. Maski ano ka budlay, waay gd ga reklamo...

i love u partz.. <3 <3 <3 

a reminder from Bro

when the people you look up to takes you for granted, when you feel betrayed, when you feel that you are not treated with proper respect as a person, when you feel like your heart is going to burst but you have no one to talk to but God, when you feel alone, when you feel that you are being abandoned, when you feel that you’re out of place, when you feel that you’re being misleaded and given false hopes, when you feel that you know you are matured enough to understand things yet it still hurts, when you want to accept the circumstances and your defeat, when you feel like sobbing and crying your heart out, when you feel like asking God “is this the cross i have to bear?”

The Lord hears you! The Lord hears your cries, sees your tears and knows your heart. You may not understand the purpose why and when these pain will stop, but you can count on one thing: The Lord’s faithfulness to us. That while you are crying and hurting, He understands your pains too. That all these time when we are telling Him how hurt we are, He is waiting for His turn to comfort us and to reassure us that what we are experiencing right now is just a portion of what He will soon reveal to us. That this pain is TEMPORARY, and when we truly see Christ in this pain, He will bring us peace. And you will know that God is everything and nothing else matters. ♥ :")

10 Reasons To Never Give Up

1. As long as you are alive, anything is possible. The only valid excuse you have to give up is if you are dead. As long as you are alive (and healthy and free) you have the choice to keep trying until you finally succeed.

2. Be realistic. The chance of mastering something the first time you do it is almost non-existent. Everything takes time to learn and you will make mistakes. Learn from them.

3. You are strong. You are stronger than you think. One little setback is not enough to stop you from achieving your goals. Neither are 10 or 100 or 1000 setbacks.

4. Prove yourself. You don’t want to be known as someone that is weak and gives up. Go out there and prove yourself to the world and to yourself. You CAN and WILL achieve what you set out to do. The only time you fail is when you give up.

5. Believe in your dreams. Don’t sell yourself short. In life there are going to be many people who will try to bring you down and tell you what you want to achieve is not possible.

6. Your family and friends. Let the people you love and who mean the world to you be your inspiration to persist and persevere. Maybe you need to try a different angle, study more or practice more but don’t give up!

7. There are people worse-off. Right now there are many people who are in a worse situation and environment than you are. Are you thinking about giving up running 5 miles a week? Think about the people who are unable to even walk and how much they would give to be able to run 5 miles every day.

8. You deserve to be happy. Don’t ever let anybody tell you otherwise. You deserve to be happy and you deserve to have success. Keep that mindset and never give up until you reach your destination!

9. Inspire others. Be an inspiration to others by refusing to give up. Who knows what someone else can achieve because you never gave up and in turn inspired them not to give up.

10. You are so close. Often when you feel like you want to give up you are so close to making a huge breakthrough. You are just a heartbeat away from success.

Begin Again

one of the best thing we can do in our lives is this: BEGIN AGAIN..


begin to see yourself as you were
when you were the happiest and the strongest you've ever been..

begin to remember what worked for you
(and what worked against you)
and try to capture the magic again

begin to remember how natural it is when you were a child
to live a lifetime each day

begin to forget the baggage you have carried with you for years..
the problems that don't matter anymore.
the tears that cried themselves away.
on the shore of tomorrow's new beginning

tomorrow tells us it will be here every new day of our lives
and if we will be wise,
we will turn away from the problems of the past
and give the future--ourselves--a chance..
to become the best of friends.
sometimes, all it takes is a wish in the heart to let yourself..
BEGIN AGAIN....

be brave (by:Bree Hodges) got this from tumblr

Be Brave!
Fight those who fight you with
Courage!

Courage to stand up,
For what’s right!
Courage to stand up,
For the weak!
Courage to know,
When a battle is lost!

Let the passion rise up and erupt,
In a firey blaze!

Be Brave!
Don’t fall to those who are weaker,
And whisper with forked tongues,
When your back is turned.

Use your courage,
To stand your ground,
And not fight back.
Use your courage to,
Forgive those who have wronged you.

Be Brave!
And use your courage to,
Know when to fight.
