Kung minsan, yung mga bagay na darating sa buhay natin na di naman natin inaasahan, minsan natatanggap natin, minsan hindi, sapagkat ang dulot nitong karanasang ito ay dala dala ang tanda, sa kahit saang sulok man ng mundo pumunta, tanda na siyang nag papaalala na minsan kanang sinubok ng panahon, na siyang dahilan ng kalagayan o katayuan meron ka ngayon…

Nasa murang gulang palang ako, nasubo ko na ang maghanap buhay, nasa walang taong gulang lang ako noon, at sumasama na sa mga kamag anak para mag hanap buhay, sa pamamagitan ng pamimitas ng ibat-bang halaman, harvest ng mais, o ano mang klaseng pwedeng pagkakitaan na nasa marangal na hanap buhay…minsan naiiyak ako dahil sa tindi ng init, dahil sa bigat ng trabaho, na di naman bagay sa aking edad, pero tanging inspirasyon ko, yung may maihain sa hapag-kainan pagsapit ng takip silim, nd ko maipaliwanang nararamdaman ko pagka sumapit na ang gabi…masakit ang buo kong katawan, hindi nakakatulog ng maayus, yun bang ayaw ko po kasi na nakikita kong magulang ko ang nag hihirap magtrabaho, mula noong natuto ako sa ibat ibang klase ng hanap buhay, minsan dahil sa nag aaral ako, umaabsent ako, minsan pumapasok ng paaralan na walang tsinelas, selophen ang BAG..at nilalagay lang sa likod para di halata..

Sumapit yung araw na kung saan di ko inaasahang darating sa aking buhay, yun bang karanasan na di mo maliliutan habang panahon, nagka landslide at natabunan ako ng lupa, nd ko na matandaan kung ilang sigundo o ilang minuto ako sa loob ng gumuhong lupa, at ilang araw ako sa ospital bago nagkamalay, pagka dilat ko ng aking mata, wala akong makita, hinaplos ko ang aking mga mata, naramdaman ko itong parang bukol ang laki, opo lumaki ang aking mga mata, at di ako makapag salita sapagkat ang aking dila ay napuno  ang akingbunga-nga dahil sa laki ng aking dila, ilong ko, mata ko, bunga-nga ko, tenga ko, doon lumabas ang dugo, mga ugat sa kamay at paa ko dis-align na sila..malamang sa tindi ng pwersa ko…na umaasa sanang makakaligtas, makakalabas sa kinasapitan kong trahediya…huli kong sambit at panalangin bago ako tuluyang mawalan ng hining sa loob, nasabi ko ang ganito “Ama kung gusto nyo pa pong mabuhay ako, please iligtas nyo po ako, pero kung di na po, kunin na nyo ako, para di na ako mahirapan pa, pinaka huling katagang nabanggit ko, sabi ko “ Inay tulungan mo ako” bago tuluyang parang natutulog lang ng mahimbing…

Noong makakakita na ako sa ospital na kung saan ako dinala, sinubok kong tumayo, pero naluha ako kasi may damage na pala ang kabila kong paa, na sanhi noong lakas nung lupa na bumagsak sa aking katawan…nasabi kung bakit sa akin pa ito nangyari, sa dinami dami ng taong masama bakit sa akin pa…

Kaya mula noon nawalan na ako ng pag asa sa buhay, naisip kong wala na akong kinabukasan, sapagkat di na ako makakagalaw ng normal, kagaya noong una…masakit sa masakit…sapagkat di ko gimusto ang nangyari….kinamumuhian ko yung pangyayaring iyon…kinamumuhian ko…

Pero sa bandang huli, na realized ko na lahat pala ng bagay na darating sa ating buhay ay may dahilan, may purpose kumbaga, ang mga akala ko noon na mawawalan na ako pag-asa ay di pala yun mangyayari, lalo nat nagsisikap ka para sa sarili mo maipakita na kaya mong makipag sabayan sa mga normal na nakakalakad, at maipakita yung mga talentong meron ka na wala sila…sa ngayon nasa mabuti at matiwasay akong kalagayan sa tulong at awa ng AMA, na siyang lagi kong sinasalaigan sa lahat ng bagay na hinahangad ko sa buhay, at inihahabilin ko na sa kanya ang lahat-lahat sa aking buhay…

ugat ng lahat ng uri ng kasamaan

1 TIMOTEO 6:10

Sapagka't ang pagibig sa salapi ay ugat ng lahat ng uri ng kasamaan; na sa pagnanasa ng iba ay nangasinsay sa pananampalataya, at tinuhog ang kanilang sarili ng maraming mga kalumbayan.

Akoy pobreng kasintahan

Walang lagging kaligayahan

Pagkat ang aking pinaka mamahal

Ay umibig sa dati kong kaibigan

ll

Sadyang ayaw maniwala

Ang puso kong kaawa-awa

Pag-suyo niya’y pakita lamang pala

Siya’y nag tataksil naman kay tagal na…

lll

Aruyyyy aruyyyy ayaw matahimik

Ang sawi kong puso

Aray…aray…

Oh ako ang tunay..

Na  pobreng kasintahan…

Aruy aruy aruy,aruy aruy aruy, aruy aruy aruy..aruy..aruy aruy

Ang kanyang pagsuyo ay pakita lamang

Aray aray aray aray aray aray aray aray aray aray aray ray

Oh ako ang tunay na pobreng kasintahan

Kutawato Caves in the Heart of Cotabato City

Nested in the northwest portion of Maguindanao, one of the component provinces of the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao, Cotabato City is a favorite tourist destination. Visiting the places that the city is proud of can give foreign and local tourists a very unforgettable experience. Each of the places has its own way of bringing back visitors to the city’s historic past.

One tourist attraction of the city which is rich in historical and cultural legacy is the Kutawato Cave. Located at the foot of the “Tantawan” or P.C. Hill, it is the only cave in the entire country located in the heart of the city. It has four major entrances namely, Provincial Capitol Cave, Bagua Cave, Caverna Español, and the Kuweba ni Satur, all of which offer various natural attractions like rock formations, saltwater ponds, underground rivers, and an army of fruit bats. Each wide entrance offers a unique experience to visitors.

Found at the Barangay Poblacion I, featuring white walls with beige and brownish shades that glitter in the dark, the cave is reputed to be seven kilometers long and made of formidable solid rock.

Back to the Olden Times of Kutawato Caves

The city’s present name originated from these caves. "KUTA" means FORT and "WATO" means STONE, hence the name "Fort of Stone," which later on became Cotabato. The caves was once a haven to the natives during the Spanish era when the colony tried to convert them into the Castellan faith.

When the Japanese power spread all over the natives, it became a silent witness of many souls who were tortured and exploited through the hands of harsh colony. Their thirst for freedom and democracy echoed their faint moans and cries that were buried in the bosoms of the caves, muted for over half a century.

The Kutawato Caves Today

The historical caves was formally re-opened and blessed on September 19, 1996. It echoes a colorful past of the Cotabateños back to the days when no foreign foot yet trampled upon this island. Many locals visit the place and reminisce the rich past behind the heroism of their ancestors.

For many adventurers, it is an ideal and thrilling spot where they can do some spelunking activities. It is a good haven for tour especially for those students.

Taking a peek at the rich Kutawato history will give a realization how blessed our nation with the natural wonders and rich history as well.

Nasaan ang Paraiso?

At naglagay ang Panginoong Dios ng isang halamanan sa Eden, sa dakong silanganan: at inilagay niya roon ang taong kaniyang nilalang.

At pinatubo ng Panginoong Dios sa lupa ang lahat na punong kahoy na nakalulugod sa paningin, at mabubuting kanin; gayon din ang punong kahoy ng buhay sa gitna ng halamanan, at ang punong kahoy ng pagkakilala ng mabuti at masama.

At may isang ilog na lumabas sa Eden na dumilig sa halamanan; at mula roo’y nabahagi at nag apat na sanga.

Ang pangalan ng una ay Pison: na siyang lumiligid sa buong lupain ng Havilah, na doo’y may ginto;  At ang ginto sa lupang yao’y mabuti; mayroon din naman doong bedelio at batong onix.

At ang pangalan ng ikalawang ilog ay Gihon; na siyang lumiligid sa buong lupain ng Cush. At ang pangalan ng ikatlong ilog ay Hiddecel, na siyang umaagos sa tapat ng Asiria. At ang ikaapat na ilog ay ang Eufrates.
—Genesis 2:8-14

Timog Iraq

Maraming eksperto sa Bibliya ang naniniwala na ang Paraiso (o Garden of Eden), ang orihinal na tahanan nina Eba at Adan, ay matatagpuan sa Sumer, kung saan nagtatagpo ang mga ilog na Eupfrates at Hiddecel (o Tigris) sa Iraq.

Naniniwala sila na ang lugar na binabanggit sa Genesis ay repleksiyon ng sitwasyon noong ika-siyam at limang siglo B.C. habang ang Pison at Gihon ay mga sanga ng Eufrates at Tigris na nawala o natuyo na.

Israel

Mayroon namang nagsasabi na ang Garden of Eden ay matatagpuan sa tinaguriang Holy Land at ang orihinal na ilog na dumadaloy sa hardin bago ito nagsanga sa apat ay ang Jordan, na mas mahaba noong panahon ng Genesis.

Ang Gihon, anila, ay ang ilog Nile habang ang Havilah ay ang Arabian Peninsula.

Iniugnay din ng propetang si Ezekiel ang Eden sa Herusalem.

Sa Ezekiel 28:13-14, isinulat niya na, “Ikaw ay nasa Eden, na halamanan ng Dios; lahat na mahalagang bato ay iyong kasuutan, ang sardio, ang topacio, at ang diamante, ang berilo, ang onix, at ang jaspe, ang zafiro, ang esmeralda, at ang karbungko, at ang ginto: ang pagkayari ng iyong pandereta at iyong mga plauta ay napasa iyo; sa kaarawan na ikaw ay lalangin ay nangahanda.

Ikaw ang pinahirang kerubin na tumatakip: at itinatag kita, na anopa’t ikaw ay nasa ibabaw ng banal na bundok ng Dios; ikaw ay nagpanhik manaog sa gitna ng mga batong mahalaga.

” Sa tradisyong Hudyo at Kristiyano, ang “banal na bundok ng Dios” ay ang Mt. Moriah sa Herusalem.

Naniniwala sila na ang buong hardin ay nasasakop ang Herusalem, Betlehem at Mt. Olivet.

Africa

Dahil kinukunsidera na sina Adan at Eba ang unang tao at dahil ang pinakamatandang labi ng tao ay natagpuan sa hilagang Africa kaya malamang, hirit nila, matatagpuan ang Garden of Eden sa Africa.

Dagdag nila na ang Gihon ay isa sa mga umano’y pangalan ng ilog Nile sa Egypt.

Lemuria

Noong kalagitnaan ng ika-19 na siglo, isang teorya ang lumutang hinggil sa kontinente na umano’y sumakop sa malaking bahagi ng Indian Ocean.

Ang pangalang Lemuria ay nilikha ni P.L. Sclater, isang scientist, bilang pagkilala sa mga klase ng hayop sa ilalim ng pamilya ng lemur na matatagpuan lamang sa India at Madagascar, pero hindi makikita sa Africa o Gitnang Silangang Asya.

Iminungkahi naman ng ilang scientist na ang Lemuria ang sinilangan ng kabihasnan ng tao kaya posibleng ito ang lugar kung saan matatagpuan ang Garden of Eden.

Hilagang Turkey

Naniniwala naman ang ibang nag-aaral ng Bibliya na kung ang apat na ilog ay umaagos mula sa hardin, malaki ang posibilidad na ang hardin ay matatagpuan sa hilaga ng sibilisasyong Tigris-Eufrates.

Ipinalagay nila ang lugar sa hilagan Anatolia, partikular sa bulubundukin ng Armenia sa hilagang Turkey.

Egypt

Sinasabi ng mga supporter ng Egypt bilang posibilidad na lokasyon ng Garden of Eden na ang lupain sa rehiyon ng ilog Nile ay swak na swak sa deskripsyon ng lupa na nababasa, hindi ng ulan, kundi ng “ambon” na nagmumula mula sa lupa.

inkiang, China

Isinulong ni Tse Tsan Tai sa kanyang librong “The Creation, the real situation of Eden, and the Origin of the Chinese” na nasa Tukestan na sakop ng China ang halamanan.

Giit niya na ang ilog na dumadaloy sa Eden ay ang Tarim, na mayroong apat sa sanga. ---ets remle madrano

Qout'z for the loving man..

This is not a goodbye, my darling, this is a thank you. Thank you for coming into my life and giving me joy, thank you for loving me and receiving my love in return. Thank you for the memories I will cherish forever. But most of all, thank you for showing me that there will come a time when I can eventually let you go. I love you.


I loved you yesterday. I love you still. I always have and I always will.



To my sweetheart, My love for you is like a clear sky after a cloudy morning, the dew in the dawn, as the sun of spring, as the flowers in May. your voice brings joy to my heart and calm to my mind. I love you.



If you are single, stop worrying. God is saving you for someone special. Someone worth the wait. Someone who will never take you for granted.


The greatest gift you can give someone is your time, your attention, your love, your concern

When a Heart Talks

January 27, 20016

Speech For The Lovers

Ladies and gentleman, good evening. I who is in front of you will now speak about different things in a relationship. I know almost all of us here are already in a relationship, although not all but at least some had experienced once, twice or more. Who are you going to chose if you lovetwo different people at the same time? Is it love if you make and ask for promises? These are the questions that comes into my mind and found the answers coming from different sources. Tonight, I will be very glad to share with you everything I know which will open your eyes and heart to realize that loving and to be loved is not that easy, is not a game.

If you find yourself in love with someone who does not love you, be gentle with yourself. There is nothing wrong with you. One author said that love just didn't choose to rest in the other person’s heart. Remember that you don't choose love. Love chooses you. All you can really do is accept it for all its mystery when it comes into your life. You can only embrace it when it arrives and give it away when it comes to you. But if it chooses to leave from your heart or from the heart of your lover, there is nothing you can do and there is nothing you should do. We all forgot that the secret of love is that it is a gift, and that it can be made to grow only by giving it away. Give it back to the person who brought it alive in you. Now if you find someone else in love with you and you don't love them, feel honored that love came and called at your door, but gently refuse the gift you cannot return. Do not take advantage my friends, do not cause pain.

Now, if there’s one of you here loving two different persons at the same time then ask your self this question honestly. When you are happy, which of the two would you want to share your happiness with? The one you think of is someone you love. Ask yourself another question and answer it honestly. “When you are sad, which person you want to share your burdens with?" The one you think of is also someone you love. Confused? Well, If you think of the same person when you are happy & sad, that's the most perfect. But if you don't think of the same person, I would advise you to choose the one you are willing to share your sadness with. Why? Because In life my friends, there are more sorrows than happiness. There are too many people that you meet that you can share your happiness with, not necessary your lover. And if you live your life happily, you can also enjoy it alone. If you are willing to tell someone your happiness, I am sure that person has got to be someone close & an understanding person to you. But in sadness, however, there are not many people willing to share your burdens with you, to stay by your side & ease your pain. If I were that person who you want to share your burdens with, only then, will I believe that I hold a very important position in your heart. Now if you are sad, who comes to your mind first?

When two people are in love, They both love to ask each other to swear, to make promises. Why do they ask each other to swear and promise? Because they don't trust each other. Yes, they don't trust their lover. These swear and promises are useless;

Till the sky falls, till the ocean dry, my love for u will never change! We all know that the sky will never fall; the ocean will never dry, Even if it does, are we still alive by

then? Be careful when making promises; don't make promises that you cannot keep.

Swear by things that can never happen, because it can never happen. In a relationship, what you say is one thing, but what you do is another.

Before having a relationship lovers should know that it would still end. Yes, relationship ends, and there were only two reasons for it; it may be death or a change of heart. No person will purposely have a change of heart. At the point in time when a person loves u, he/she really loves you, and can't even pretend that he/she doesn't. Same goes, when that person loves you no more, there's no way he/she can pretend he/she loves you. But when that person doesn't love you anymore, he really doesn't love you anymore. And if that person wants to leave, you must ask yourself if you still love them, if you don’t, do not keep them just to save your pride. Do not stop them from being happy to another persons arms. If you stop them from finding true happiness with the one they love, it shows you already don't love them. And if you don't love that person, what rights do you have to blame them for a change of heart?

When you are in love you cannot count all the reasons why you love. An author said, Yet regardless if you love them, hate them, wish they would die or know that you would die without them... it matters not. Because once in your life, whatever they were to the world they become everything to you. When you look them in the eyes, traveling to the depths of their souls and you say a million things without trace of a sound, you know that your own life is inevitable consumed within the rhythmic beatings of your lovers very heart. We love them for a million reasons, and I truly believe that no paper would do it justice. It is a thing not of the mind but of the heart. A feeling. Only felt. Thank you very much my dear friends and good evening.
