The Eulogy for Myself

            If I could spell her personality I have done it before. If I could right down her story on a piece of parchment, I already did it. And if I could explain who she really is to those people who judge her, I will. But for me there are no words that could represent her real meaning in my life. She is absolutely AMAZING. Though for others she is nothing but NOTHING.

            A few years ago I met a girl who is very strong, full of joy and happiness, full of inspirations and dreams. She is good in advising people and also good in keeping secrets. If I could choose a diary I’d rather choose her as my diary. Because no matter how dramatic someone’s life is, she is still willing to listen and give a hug no matter what and no matter who you are. You can count on her always.

            She is Daggy, but I love her fashion. She is also Annoying, when she’s cracking “waley” jokes. But she is really Nice, keeping promises and doing it on time. She is Irresistible, sometimes if we have no choice. She is Caring all the time and she is Awesome all the time. She is DANICA. Though sometimes she is really annoying and daggy, she is still nice and caring, like no other person lived in this world that has the same personality with her. Danica is something I will never give up. But since she is a human, I will never give her up.

            The moment I’ve heard she died, I feel like my world is sinking under the water. Like I don’t hear anything but I’m seeing the moments that we’ve shared together. Her smile, her laugh and her happy face, but all of a sudden it turns into black. It turns into sadness and cry. I will never forget her and her words of wisdom.

            But if you would ask me, what is the thing that I will never forget about her? My answer will be her laugh, her soundless laugh. I will never forget the way she holds her abdomen and mouth when laughing. Also the phrase that she always says to me, “Don’t worry for tomorrow let tomorrow worry for you. Because GOD is always there and He will guide us no matter what.”

            If Danica is just around, I would like to tell her this 5 last words I want her to hear, “Thank you.” And “I love you.”  May you rest in peace my friend.

Essay for my favorite Speech

                Wear Sunscreen. That is the title of my favorite speech ever. Though I forgot who the writer of that speech is, but it leaves a mark on my mind. The first time I've read the speech, it was boring and not attractive. But when I've read it twice and understand each and every single word of the speech, I said to myself, “Ah. This is awesome.”

                The speech has a lot of inspirational phrases and awakening words. I was able to memorize it but when I performed it in front of the class I was totally block out. That’s why after I recite the speech I was really guilty because I did not even put effort to recite it in a good way. Or in short, I wasn't able to put justice on performing the speech.

                But despite of that, I still admire the speech though I already forgot the words that make the speech more unforgettable the thought is still there inside my cerebrum. The most unforgettable part in the speech was the part where the writer said that we must take care of ourselves. Enjoy our life and take good care of our body. Because no matter how we hate it or no matter how ugly our body is,  it will be the most priceless thing that we will have in our life. (I re-phrase the idea, sort of).

                So if ever I've read a thousand or more speeches written by different writers, Wear Sunscreen would be still the best of all the rest.

They Are Also A VICTIM

My Speech.

            In my 18 years of existence, the news about the people who commits suicide is never been new to me. Almost every day, there's a family crying for their lost. Behind this happening, can we ask ourselves?  Is the person who commits suicide is the one to blame? Or they are also a victim? Before answering this, let me first proclaim my stand.

                     In Religious view, suicide is one of the mortal sins that may commit by the people. And it will surely send you down to Hell. But for me, Earth is Hell. Why? Let me start from sharing facts with you. A 14-year-old boy was discovered dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound in a middle school bathroom. Wednesday night, September 10, 2014 and the cause of his death is not only the gunshot on his head but also the emotional pain inside him. And before this, he is also a victim of the never ending Bullying. If I were him I have killed myself also instead of suffering every day. I'm not saying that his right and committing suicide is right but rather bypassing the deep reason why he did it. These evil creatures who bullied him push him to do something that could end up to another thing that stops him from breathing.

          Can you feel how painful it is? Knowing a young man died because of that? Knowing that the devils subdue the Angels? My friends, this is a kind of virus in the society. And this virus will never be terminated until we, the people who act to be blind won’t open our eyes and fight for the right. But how can we fight for the right if we are afraid of facing the reality, the heart devastating reality? Well, let’s start it within ourselves, within our Sons, Daughters, Siblings or Friends. Let’s terminate the virus named “SUICIDE”.

          The first step, understand and know where the suicidal persons are coming from. Know their stories and try not to hurt them in any kind of way, either in verbal or in actions. Try to start with the words “Hi, I think you need a friend?” or maybe “I have noticed you this past few days, are you okay?” Then if s/he answered ‘no’ with teary eyes, grab him/her and hug him/her as tight as you can. Show that person how you really care for him/her. Then continue the conversation, let him/her open the topic. Let him/her tell you why s/he was down and full of sadness. Earn his/her trust. Be patient and understanding, because they are in crucial stage of their life. If you are through in doing this, Congratulations! You’ve saved another life! And I’m sure one day; they will be thanking you for that.

          Second step, after knowing what happened, advise something that could make them feel, you’re right. Advise something that can make their feelings much better than before. The third and last step, don’t judge them. Don’t underestimate them despite of what you’ve know and what you’ve heard from them. Don’t scold them, because that will make the situation much rigid than ever.

          Those people who are in suicidal situation needs a hand. So if you can give one of yours then why not? If you can save someone today, maybe you can save many people in the future. Be a hero for someone and sooner or later you’ll have the biggest prize that GOD can give. Help them realize that even though Earth is Hell, it can be also a place of happiness and joy. This world might be considered also as Heaven.

           So now maybe my stand is quite clear, that I believe that those people who commit suicide are not the one to blame. They are all victims. Victims of situation that they can’t handle alone, victims of people who are fun of pulling them down, and victims of misconception of the Universe. Now that I’m done proclaiming my stand, it’s your turn to ask yourself. Are they the one to blame? Or they are also a victim?

God Given me a great renewal of faith.

Ako yung taong laging takot, laging mahina. Natatakot kasi ako na baka dahil sakin masira ang mga bagay bagay. Pero alam niyo, GOD has His own ways para ipakita saakin na despite of my fears andun parin siya para saakin. And He never fail me, though I always fail him. God is Good. All the time.

Bakit kailangang intindihin ang isang tao?

     Lagi nating tinatanong sa ating mga sarili kung bakit tayo nalang palagi ang umiintindi. Isipin mo nalang ito, kung nagagawa mong isiping intindihin sila, ganun din naman sila sa iyo. Kahit hindi mo man halata, mahal ka nila at nag aalala din sila sayo.


Dapat natin silang intindihin dahil:

UNA:  Hindi sa lahat nang bagay  sarili lang natin ang intindihin natin. We must set our minds na minsan kailangan din natin na maging open minded.

PANGALAWA: Kung mahal mo ang mga taong yun, hindi bat kahit anung mangyari iintindihin natin sila. Dahil ang tunay na pagmamahal ay walang katapusang pag iintindi.

AT ANG HULI:  Dahil yun ang dapat nating gawin. We have NO CHOICE. :)
