The Innocence of a Child

Inspired by Les Miserables and Beautiful Creatures

Meet a moth! ;)

After days and weeks of waiting, four larvae shells finally hatched and an army green-winged creature emerged.

It is not every day that you witness things like this. But every day we're given a chance to live, believe and appreciate the many wonders of God's masterpieces. ;)

Planting is fun!!

I realized that another way to encourage planting is to plant seeds yourself. More than that, supporting plant vendors is also a very good idea. If the demand for plants increases, more people would be selling plants to compensate for the growing demand for them.

More plants means more CO2 absorbers. Love that!

21st of August. 5.30 in the morn.

I could not get over what amazing event I have witnessed the night before.

Stars shined brightly in the evening sky while in a distant lightnings repeatedly struck the Earth.

I was amazed at the contrast of scenes. In a region, there is calmness and peace, while in another there is chaos and commotion. 

This is exactly how I picture the world now - there are so much wars, so much violence, seemingly endless killings, countless victims.. 

It's as if all hope is lost... 

Yet somewhere in a distant horizon stars refuse to stop shining... 

Even in death and hatred, they still shine... 

Even in the midst of trials and difficulties and troubles, the Lord continues to radiate His love to the righteous and sinners alike. 

Let's believe in the light we bring..inside of us...

Sonnet 116

Let me not to the marriage of true minds

Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O no! It is an ever-fixèd mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come:
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

Who could've imagined that this traffic jam causes us lots of trouble? Productivity is ironically being speedily killed by the slow, crawling movement of vehicles. Of course, there really are a lot to monitor, manage and improve in the Philippines, but the government must arrange its priorities and take action quickly because each of their movement and motion are very critical especially to people below the poverty line. As much as possible, these must be aided and supported in order to help them avoid the lure of committing crime and illegal activities. 

Learning to breathe in LB

My classmates and I have found our way to Los Baños, Laguna to get ready for our chemical engineering board exam.. It is such a great blessing and a wonderful second chance to be able to recall our lessons in college and learn new things.

Once more I anchored this learning to God's calling. Because I am away from home, I think I am freer. That is why staying in Laguna, I intended not only to be intellectually prepared, but also to be more spiritually mature and socially aware of the issues in the community. I believe that even as an engineer, I cannot know everything and I ought to be rooted in the Lord. 

So during my stay here, I should be more connected to God, to nature, to animals, to people, to myself. Hello, beauty, freedom, truth and love! :)

Cha and I took care of these caterpillars together. We hope to be the stewards of creation God calls us to be. Will be updating soon about these babies. ;)
