06.13.04 (12:45 am)   [edit]
Too Bored!!!
I have too much time on my hands!

Its a good thing that ill be starting work on friday. im starting to see that i have too much time on my hands right now that, i have time to write poetry. it would have been ok if it was good but... anyway here one check it out.

Darkness Sublime

The darkness brings forth a sublime kind of beauty.
Rivaled only by the vastness of space
A place where everything is magnificent and stunning
Where truth and beauty gives life new grace.

Shadows playing in the darkest night
Give rise to pleasures within my heart
Within it there is no present, future nor past
My love for it shall never pass
 
Nap Nap Nap... And Some Lovin then... Nap Nap Nap.
06.13.04 (12:08 am)   [edit]
I got back from mass a few hours ago. (Right now though i just woke up from another nap, im currently eating ice cream while checking my mail and typing this.) As we got back we ate lunch then went back to my room. Anyway we were resting on my bed we talked about what happened to each other’s week. We weren’t able to see each other for a whole week since I was hunting for a job (she being the one who told me to get a job). After a few minutes I realized that she was already snoring softly with her head on my arm (hehehe, I “had” to add “softly”.) :D Anyway I though I might as well get some more sleep since my days of being an bum is over and I might as well get the last nap ill ever have in the months to come.

(Isn’t it great to have a beautiful woman that you love in your arms while you are asleep? Just being able to smell her hair without her noticing it. Well I always thought so; anyway I think there’s some ice cream left in the fridge, Anne would probably kill me if I don’t get her some... After all she is the one who paid for it.) :D

(Hon, if you read this don’t kill me, im pretty sure I was dreaming when I heard you snore.) ;)
 
My breakfast, my new job and a nap!
06.12.04 (4:29 pm)   [edit]
I just woke up an hour ago. Today’s Sunday here in the Philippines, and in 4 hour im gonna be heading of to church with Anne and my cousins. Well i just finished cooking and eating my breakfast, in case you are curious i ate a few slices of bacon, eggs, a couple of hotdogs and of course a Filipino breakfast wouldn’t be complete without fried rice.

Well I just want to say im quite excited about my new job. Did I mention I have a new job? I think I mentioned it somewhere in the last article I wrote. Anyway I went to the orientation the other day, I think it was Friday, anyway when I was at the orientation, my confidence was given a huge boost when I found out that out of 48 people there, only three of us were interviewed from this month (btw I was interviewed 5 days ago). Yes some of them had to wait for 2-3 months before they were called; there was one guy who was waiting since November last year.

Anyway I think this is the best job for me. One of the best things about my new job is that it has a very convenient location, it only take me 10 minutes to get to my office. Not only is it great because it is near my house, it also has a mall, a few restaurants and a lot of clubs!! Here’s a description of the place I found on their site in the Internet:

“Eastwood City is an example of meticulous satellite city planning where residential condominiums are perfectly surrounded by modern everyday conveniences such as specialty stores, a supermarket, a health and fitness gym, international business schools and corporate offices.”

I just hope I do well there. Hmm… I think I’ll take a nap before church. I’ll be back later.

(I might have written the past article in my other blog, so if you don’t see anything about my new work here its probably in one of my other blogs.)

You punish yourself with cuts so deep

For sins that no one else could see

So easily you give up your dreams

Believing it’s not yours to keep

My hearts bleeds deep when I see your face

With tears coming down with endless grace

The sorrow and pain showing in your eyes

Has left my heart bare and undisguised

I yearn to hold your hands in mine

To keep you safe till the end of time

But you’ve kept your heart away from love

Afraid of the hurt that it could become

I plead to you my case so true

Let me be the one to share this load for you

And show you what true love can give


 
Someone Always Gets Hurt.
06.09.04 (5:30 am)   [edit]
Though I am a great believer in the golden rule. There are times in a person’s life when one has to take advantage of others. For one reason or another, there are points in a person’s life that there is very little choice, where one as to choose between achieving ones goals or letting go of the opportunity. I guess it all comes down to two things, is it more important for me to achieve my goals right now, or is the person I have a relationship with more important to me.

In our life we create relationships for a purpose, it can be for friendship, companionship, love, sex or money and power etc. Most of the time our intentions are benign, but sometimes the need for more power and money gets the better of us. There are also times when we “have to” choose between two evils, here we can make two choices, its either we take the lesser of the two evils or the choice where we gain the most.

I myself love power, I have a strong need for it, a desire to be better and than others. Sometimes this can be overwhelming, because of this I found one should find something that is more important to him than power. Family, friends or a girlfriend/boyfriend, with these things our needs are tempered by the feelings we hold towards the people we care for.

However much we try to do what’s right, there will always someone who will disagree with our actions. Maybe they disagree with it because they weren’t able to think it up themselves or maybe they will lose a hold on something or someone. One has to realize that someone will always be affected by our actions, and that even if we have good intent someone always ends up losing. We may not know them or even care, but if we try to remember this we will be able to choose who it is that will get affected. Always think things through, consider all possibilities before doing anything. When you do this, there will be less chance of hurting someone you care for.



 
What Is Thought?
06.08.04 (2:06 pm)   [edit]
have any of you wondered what thoughts are? i mean, are the just a bunch of electrical impulses in our brain? And what happens after we had a thought? does it go somewhere else? this may sound stupid but, sometimes its really irritating when i suddenly think of something then it disappears like smoke a second after. This is a question that hold real importance to me, because thought is what makes us different from other biengs in our world. can anyone explain the awareness of self and environment which destinguishes life from inorganic matter?

We have used our intelligence for many practical purposes. Some of which helped us have a better understanding of ourselves and nature around us. Yet we have used it for something else as well. We created worlds of wonder and horror, and within these worlds we put creatures such as unicorns, dragons, gods, demons, knights and wizards. worlds where light and darkness fight a never-ending struggle against each other piting each sides champoins on the battlefield. And yet we have also created other mythical creatures who are neither dark or fearsome, these are simply a pleasant product of our imagination- Santa Claus, Jack Frost and even the easter bunny =). not only did we create these things intellectually, we also believed in them in varying degree. these days we talk of little of these things of the dark. yet there is still an inbred fear of what lurks in the dark, the unknown and the unseeable. People think it is childish to think of warewolves and ghouls, but it is all right to believe in a technical wraith such as flying saucers( or at least more than vampires and warewolves).

we think of thought as a mental process electrical impulses traveling around our brain. but we know no more about the thought process, maybe even essn than the ancient greeks about the atom. we talk today of thought today as the ancient greeks in the time of democritus may have talked(sparingly and without too much conviction or belief) about the atom, and with as little understanding. we are in short just mouthing words without really having any understanding.

we do know something of the result of thought. all that mankind is today is the product of our thinking. but this is the result of the impact of the thought upon the human animal, as steam makes an impact upon a mechanism and makes an engine run.

so now we might ask, once the steam has made its impact and performed its funtion what happens to it? i think its just as logical to ask what happens to thought once it has made its impact. does it change to another form like energy, or does it drift off into space to fall upon another person to recieve it =). What happens to though once it has done its job. where does it go, what does it do, do the thoughts of people long dead still exist? hmm... simple questions are the hardest to answer arent they. =)
 
Why I Write. :D
06.08.04 (1:54 pm)   [edit]
The reason for this blog. :P

I remember when I was a kid I had this thing about reading books. I thought that anything without any visual representations was a bore to read. I then felt that reading a book of any kind as a chore that I’d rather not do.

The funny thing about it is that these days I have collected about 500 books or so. In the beginning I was only interested with Fantasy books such as the series known as “Xanth Series” (Author: Piers Anthony). After a while though I started collecting other genres like science fiction, horror and Spy thrillers.

Most of my books though are of fantasy, books about dragons, mages, knights and gods. After reading most of my books three or four times already (some of my favorites I have read more than ten times since I bought It that I had to buy a new copy since all the pages were worn down because of my rereading it), though some of them I’ve only read once.

These days though I’ve started collecting books which are collections of short essays on philosophy and life in general. I’ve started reading some essays by Emerson and as well as those of Bacon. It was very interesting to see just how much the English language has changed in a couple hundred years. I also saw the subtle poetry of writing. In reading those authors essays I realized how beautiful words are.

Because of this realization I found myself writing about everything that I was interested in. Another reason I write is probably because I am a bit narcissistic. I love the idea that I can change another person’s views simply because of something I wrote. In writing I want to leave a small mark in people who I have never met personally, and yet know a part of me, of my mind because they have read something that I have created.

I know that there are more reasons why I have take up writing but these are the most important one to me. Anyway why did you guys start your blogs? Is it because of the same reasons or are your reasons entirely different from mine? Feel free to comment i would love to hear your opinions.
 
Beauty in the Darkness.
06.07.04 (6:50 am)   [edit]
Finding beauty in an empty world.

Have you ever felt humbled whenever you are surrounded by total darkness? In the dark I have the chance to see something that will always exist, something as infinite and as eternal as time itself. Within the darkness I find myself at one with everything else, a place where I can find peace of mind from all my daily troubles

It was a place of solace for me, a place where nothing and no one could ever disturb or startle me. Within the darkness I found it easy to order my thoughts, a place where I can find the peace that was lacking in the day. After a while whenever I had a problem I would only need to spend a few minutes or so in the dark to find a solution. Within it I saw that anything was possible. Even today after reading a book I sometimes find myself going through within in the dark of my mind.

In the darkness I became anything I wanted to be, went to places I could only dream of even places that never existed at all. In short it became my unending canvas where I can paint cities of intense beauty, where knights fights gallantly against evil sorcerers who wields powers beyond measure. I created gods and demons that would vie for control over a mortal’s soul. In it i found a place where my imagination has free reign over everything.

These days whenever I feel the urge to write I usually try to find a dark place where I can work by myself. At times I find myself in the mountain simply because it is one of the most serene places near my home. At times I go the just so I can listen to the sounds that exists only in the night. In its own way I always found that mountain magical whenever the darkness settles, surrounding everything making everything disappear with its touch. As the night consumes every single cell in my body, I start to feel more alive, ready to face the new day that is ahead. With that feeling I start to write with the knowledge that tomorrow bring new chances, new experiences that would teach me more about my role in this world where I found myself living in.

Most people find the dark to be a terrifying place to be. Though this is understandable since the fear of the unknown is one of the greatest fears a person can feel, and what is more unknowable than what is hidden in the dark. Our imagination gives life to ghosts and goblins that have haunted the night ever since humans became obsessed with the dark. Within the darkness lies an intense beauty where all our dreams and nightmares reside.

Whenever I sense a need to be alone, to compose myself and to relax I need only to go out into the night to leave my worries in the light. Yes the dark could be a terrifying place but given a chance you will find it too has the same beauty that one can find in the vastness of space. Within it lies an endless beauty that no one else can spoil.
 
Dawning of Hope.
06.06.04 (7:00 pm)   [edit]
It’s that never-ending cycle that we go
Through... no matter how much depressed or numb
You feel through the darkness... it never fails to
Happen. Light seeps into every nook and cranny of
That dreary world that had made its home in all of
Us... warms us and gives enough hope for the next
Bout of darkness and light.
Sometimes the darkness take longer than the
Light but despite that... what we feel at the
Arrival of the warm light is so lasting sometimes
That even in the darkness... one feels that they
Are still bathed in light. It sustains us and
Uplifts.
It is during these times that we step into the
Light. It doesn’t have to have a physical
Manifestation... maybe its the mindset one
Acquires or the belief in one greater than all of
Us... whether living our lives to the fullest or
Living to survive... we step into the light that
We start to have hope and renewal. There is indeed
A reprieve in all these sufferings we endure. We
Grow and get stronger in each passing trial that
Beset us. That prepares us for an inevitable end...
Whatever end it may be... light has us after all
That almost never ending toil in the darkness that
We finally step into the light.
Hmmm maybe it’s something to hope for...

 
Ravaged Soul...
06.06.04 (12:14 pm)   [edit]

This is my first venture into poetry. I hope you guys like it.

Ravaged Soul

I live in a world of misery,
And caged by my own desires.
I’ve gone on ahead to my paradise
Of which I now despise.

All my goals have turned to ashes
And all the ashes into dust
But I’ll struggle on to find new dreams,
In this world of empty scenes

Till death devours me and I am cold
My life would be for myself alone.
I’ll join the anger and all the strife
This world will be my playground,
My pleasure, my delight…


Poetry from me!?!?! Pretty hard to believe huh. :D
