Satan the Adversary
|
Satan will come to you in a form you least expected.
Satan is BEAUTY to the point of undermining ATTITUDE. Beauty is an
effect that can be altered. Someone used to say that one should not
try to please others; it is enough that one is pleasant. Satan comes
into being when one started to cultivate his outside appearance in
order to please others, and forget to nourish his own attitude. Satan
is usually portrayed as being an ugly beast that is ready to devour
any of its preys with its sharp and dirty teeth. But Satan is more
beautiful than one can ever imagine, it is a beauty that tends us to
forget our very own self. One may look so beautiful in his
appearance, base on what society's criteria of beauty, but if his
attitude hides something awful it will come out in time. When that
comes, no amount of make up or foundation can hide his ugliness. It
is always wiser to look at the beauty within rather than what your
eyes can normally see. Sometimes our very eyes deceive us. When a
person is courting someone he always puts his best foot forward. He
wears clothes that will make him look better. Later when he got
married, his repressed self comes into being. This is the reason for
several marriage break ups. A lot of people hides the Satan in them
instead of nourishing their own natural goodness. There is nothing
wrong in being beautiful but we should not focus on such. It is
better that we feel Beauty by being pleasant rather than be Beautiful
but be filled with pride. Remember, we are all God's creation. We are
all Perfect and Beautiful. We do not need to please other people we
should just be pleasant. One should only nourish his own attitude and
true Beauty will manifest itself.
Satan is PLEASURE to the point of undermining FEELINGS. "Why can
something that feels so good be so wrong." This is a popular
expression heard from teenagers who does premarital sex. I have known
of someone who was abused by his boyfriend. She said that her
boyfriend seems to view her as a sex object. In her own words, she
describes herself as "a juke box that whenever her boyfriend just
insert coin for her to play music". The coin is in the form of a
treat in expensive restaurants or threat that he will leave her. For
females who have already had experienced such with their boyfriends
it is hard to leave them because they already have been emotionally
attached to them. The music is in the form of the satisfaction that
is derived after inserting the coin. Of course, she feels PLEASURE
every time her g-spot is pumped, but then she feels sorrow that her
boyfriend FORGETS that she also has some feelings. Sometimes, she
just wants someone whom she could talk to but all her boyfriend wants
is to fuck her. She found her boyfriend because she never experience
the love of a father, for her father have always been busy as one of
the cabinet secretaries in a previous administration. PLEASURE
becomes more evil when some people tend to forget that they are
already deriving pleasure from their very own kin. I remember someone
having been abused by her own father. She feels both exhilarated and
dirty after her father rubs her breast. At that time she was in
disbelief that her father could do such an act to her because she has
place high regards for her father. She has waited for her father for
fourteen years and envied her classmates that attended family
reunions with their father only to realize that her father is
overruled by Satan.
Satan is SELF-PRESERVATION to the point of DESTROYING others. "Wars
starts in the minds of men, it is also in the mind that peaceful
resolutions can be made." This is a part of one of the speeches made
by Kofi Annan, Uinted Nations, Secretary General. Nations have
declared war over other nations because they wanted to preserve their
territory; they seem to forget that there is but one world that we
all live in and that we are all children of God. Self-preservation is
naturally good. We need to survive, but if our survival will mean the
demise of more of our kinds then it is better for us to cease from
existing. Sometimes there is really no reason for arguments or for
any of the killings, we just feel insecure that the other person will
harm us first that is why we would like to be the first one to
strike. This happens only when we have a NEGATIVE thinking of who we
are that is reflected to us by society. Therefore, if we always feel
threatened it is because we also want to harm others. That there is
this anger or fear that we have kept in years that is now ripe for
revenge. The reason for arguments is that we tend to focus more on
PERSONALITY instead of UNDERSTANDING that we only have the same
VISION and that vision is GOD.
Satan is POWER to the point of undermining the WEAK. "We should not
be afraid of what we can do. We should always use our capacity as a
tool and not something to be afraid of." This was cited by Nelson
Mandela to inspire the African people to believe in their capacity to
make use of their strength in advancing their nation. It is not POWER
rather the GREEDINESS for such that creates conflicts. I believe that
the more POWER we have the greater our responsibility to use such to
benefit other people. It should not be the other way around.
Satan is HAPINESS to the point of undermining those who MOURN. This
is similar to the earlier example of being insensitive to the
feelings of others. Although it is a CHOICE to be Happy, that one can
CHOOSE to be Happy in any circumstances, one should not joke on the
sad feelings felt by other people. When a person is wounded it is but
a natural tendency for the flesh to bleed. When our eyes are covered
with dirt it is but a natural tendency to cry. The emotions that we
experience allows us to feel life. It is said that in pain there is
relief. Satan are those who undermine the feelings of others, those
who are insensitive and those who does not want to UNDERSTAND. These
are people who do not know who they are and their happiness is not a
CHOICE, which they have made, rather, it is a superficial expression
that hides its intention of mocking other people. There are a lot of
this Satan, be careful that you may not end up as one of them.
Satan is LOVE to the point of being OBSESSED. Love is God. But loving
someone or something to the point of wanting to possess it is never
good. We have to be polite when dealing with other people, respect
their PERSONALITY. Love only to the point that you Like the person
and you accept the fact that you are ready to give her up or share
with other people that she maybe appreciated by more people. It is
like a flower that one should never pluck from the ground. A flower
in the hand will wither. When it is left alone, more travelers can
still appreciate its BEAUTY. It is said, that if you really love
someone, you have to learn to let her go. This may prove to be
disheartening but that is the only way to really show her how much
you appreciate her.
Beauty, Pleasure, Self-preservation, Power, Happiness and Love should
come from WITHIN. If we always search for these from the outside,
then we are near to loosing ourselves and giving Satan the
opportunity to take control of our life. Satan can be defeated by
acknowledging that we are already PERFECT. That we need not to eat
the apple of Wisdom in order to know more. That we need not NEED
because we already HAVE. We just have to recognize that God dwells
within us. For our body is the temple of God. Immanuel, God is within.

Happiness is a Choice
|
You can see a glass of water as either half full or half empty.
Some ghosts that is observed come into being as a projection of a
negative thought. Sometimes, we create our own demons without knowing
it. I was haunted by my own demon in the past just because of the
CHOICE I made. I was angry before at society for the inequality I see
in it, later did I realize that it was actually the devil's way of
deceiving me. I was made to look at society with anger in my heart,
This anger created these demons. Although my intention was to create
balance in the system, the one I am thinking will create a lot of
sorrow among the people. Before, there was this alumni of the Chinese
Student Association that told me, for every change that is made in
society, there is a lof of blood shed. I thought in order to make
things equal, inorder to give everyone an opportunity, we must kill
the selfish interest of the few. I CHOSE to be ANGRY at people who
intimidate others with what they HAVE which oly comes fro their
parents. I am so angry whenever I feel that these people intimidate
me. Sometimes I am quiet. Until now I am bothered by the same demn.
Until now I can say that I haven't really decided whether I have to
kill a lot of beings in order to create new life. Gd forbid that I
should not. This is against the Principles, but I am bothered by the
idea of BALANCE… I have created our own publication when I was in
High School, mobilizing my fellow first years because the Seniors
didn't gave us the opportunity to write in the HS publication. It was
ANGER that allowed me to command a group of people. I know that there
the same as GOODNESS, there is EVIL in every man. Tapping into this
evil allows one to command the other. This is the very strategy used
by activists. They agitate the people to the poit that they no longer
think and they are controlled by their own emotion, by their
subconcious, by their own demons. Although I am able to accomplish
things using this emotion, like being focused in what I do, inside, I
was never successful. This is because, I just allow the devil to take
control of me. Although I am the one awarded, it was the devil who is
happiest of all my accomplishments, this is because, such AWARDS made
me feel Superior. I became a person who have a strong Inferiority
complex. It is as if I want people to mock me all the time. From
their mocking do I get my ANGER, from ANGER do I a flame by Spirit
and allowed it to take control. Some psychics can use Fear and Anger,
it is a powerful source of energy that comes from within. However,
why is it never good to use such, is because of the fact that it will
always follow another principle. This is "what you sow is what you
will reap". If I plant ANGER towards the heart of people, there is no
way that I will be able to reap LOVE. .. and one will never be a
success if he CHOOSES darkness over light. It is like CHOOSING before
one is born if he wants to be born blind or with eyes.
What makes someone successful in life is when he feels HAPPY. The
good news is that being HAPPY is a CHOICE and is not brought about by
any circumstances. They say that it is how we react to circumstances
that matters more. Some people thought that they are sad because it
is because of their dark past. The only way to get over one's dark
past is to CHOOSE to be enlighten. Listen to Disney songs or any
happy melody. Some of those who are afraid of the paranormal suppress
their Fear, they did not realize that it is not ghosts that are
haunting them anymore rather it is their own CHOICE to be AFRAID that
is creating stress in their daily existence.
I realized that I don't need any person to be my SOURCE of happiness.
When we fall in LOVE, we are never HAPPY with the person rather with
the idea of LOVE itself. All the while I though that I can never live
without seeing her. I am so pathetic to feel this way. This is
because, she was never there during my childhood but I have managed
to live and succeed in life without her. Why then would I need her in
my life? Because I am in LOVE with her. I believe that she is still
part of who I am only that I now see her within me. I do beliee that
she is God's answer to my prayer… You see, it is when someone torn
your heart into two, but you continue to appreciate that person and
be HAPPY about what you FEEL that makes all the difference. When I
learn to LOVE the FEELING rather than POSESS the person, I felt so
much POWER within me. I realized that I shouldn't have cried all
those nights hoping that she will hear me. She might have heard me
thru telepathy or something, but you'll just acquire some diseases if
you keep on crying too much. I now FEEL that I can always communicate
with her if I want to if I just have to look from within me and see
the light… She will always be there, in my heart.
Inspiration, comes from the word "in" meaning inside and "pyre"
meaning flame. This implies that there is a flame coming from within.
We CHOOSES to allow that flame to burn inside our heart or to cease
its existence with our tears. When we want to feel inspired we just
need to look from within ourself and just allow that FLAME to burn
inside us. Remember that it is our thinking that makes us feel
inspired. Why fill one mind with negative thoughts when he can think
of inspiring ideas that will help one achieve his goals in life…
Happiness is a state of being. When you are HAPPY you feel
satisfaction. I remember seeing a friend laugh. It is as if all her
burden has been lift when she laughed over an idea which she
expressed openly. Maybe this is why they said that "laughter is the
best medicine". Perhaps most of the diseases that comes out today is
because of the negative thinking people acquire ever since they are
young. When I was still madly in love with her, I always have colds.
I don't know why I acquired the colds before but it just took me a
minute to remove the disease from my body. Some might say that it is
a miracle, but I realize that one can really heal oneself just by
changing the way one thinks. When I started remembering how beautiful
she was, that's the time that I started feelingthat flame burning
again within me, immediately, my colds where gone…
There are different levels of happiness.
Happiness after eating your favorite dish. This kind of Happiness is
brought about by our taste. Why then are there bitter tasting foods
that are more nutritious. Happiness in this level is dependent on the
senses which could sometime fail us. For this reason, one must not be
dependent to such kind of happiness. Life has a lot of bitterness,
one should learn to appreciate life inspite of the bitter taste it
brings. One should learn how to be happy although sorrow in the world
surmounts. We should learn to overcome life's struggles and see more
the benefit such would bring to us.
Happiness whenever you can sleep at night without fear of anyone
trying to kill you in the middle of the night. This is called
Preservation. It is good to sleep without Fear. There are some who,
despite their riches feel insecure that their own relatives would try
to get their walth from them. An example os someone possesing this
kind of Happiness is Herodes. He has all riches that he used inorder
to preserve his grip of Kinghsip. This comes to the point that he
ordered the killing of all his first born child, all his wives and
all those innocent children. This is Happiness tht lasts only up to
the extent that one has a grip to power. This will eventually cease
unless it is transformed inot other level of happiness.
Happiness when your Crush texted you. This happiness is that of
Recognition. I remember how happy I was when she texted me. I guess,
the first time she texted I have already broadcasted it to half of my
dormates. Maybe I felt happy then because she recognizes that I
exist. The thing is, I need NOT need for I am already am… existing.
Our exisitence should not depend upon a person rather it should
depend upon our own purpose in life. Every person have their dreams,
yet they seem to forgot about their dreams when they see other people
whom they are infatuated with. They become disempowered when this
happen. There are some people in Quezon who missed the truck of food
supplies just because they are owed when they see Luis Manzano. These
people have dreams but they CHOOSE to forget about their dreams and
be dependent on the existence of those whom they like. This kind of
Happiness will make one loose himself.
Happiness after knowing yourself. This is Realization. I believe that
this is close to the perfect HAPPINESS since the person who possesses
this state of being is already aware of his existence. The only
danger in this kind of Happiness is when we forget that True
HAPPINESS is something that will reverberate to our immediate
environment. This kind of happiness is similar to those who keeps on
praying for a miracle yet is lazy doing nothing with his life.
Happiness after knowing your Purpose and fulfilling them. This is
Actualization. This is true Happiness. When other people are inspired
by what we do then we can really attest that we have reached the
highest level of HAPPINESS. This is different from someone cracking a
joke and everyone laughing at such. This kind of happiness need not
be in the form of words but simply manifested in our gestures.
Inorder to reach this kind of happiness, one must let go of all his
grudges and embrace the light.

Me - Within Society - Without
|
If you listen, at one time, to everyone then you'll understand none.
It is society that named me. If Some say that ones name has something to do with who I am . But I
believe that it is only I that CHOOSES who I will be. Someone used to
tell me that I should not complicate things, that I should remember
but one word "I". The names that I got is not a CHOICE on my part but
a CHOICE made by my parents. I have all the POWER and the CAPACITY to
change my name or to GO BEYOND MY NAME. I have but one name, and that
is "I". My name is just used my Society to cluster me and to bind me
with my relatives.
This "I" is driven by two emotions, that of ANGER and LOVE. I have
felt ANGER whenever I see imbalance in the system. I am ANGERED
whenever I see people not given an opportunity because their secotr
is marginalized. Perhaps I am ANGRY because I myself is a constant
client to Intimidation. It is my CHOICE to feel intimidated but I
can always CHOOSE to LOVE. I can CHOOSE to LOVE Life and LOVE
beauty. For LOVE is an emotion that comes to every man like the
chirping of birds. It is but a natural phenomenon but unless one
notice it then he will not realize how beautiful it is and how much
more its rhythm can do for a person.
Someone always told me to focus on myself, to focus on the "I".
Iniatialy I find this hard to do because I am used to utilize ANGER
that is generated from my surrounding. Although there is nothing to
be angry of, I find things that can be a source of that anger.
Sometimes, I can influence people to mock me, to undermine me so that
this ANGER can grow. I now realized that I have abussed this emotion.
It could have benefited me when I FOCUS and used ANGER to do well in
examinations. But it should not be longer than 15 minutes or this
Anger will reverberate to my immediate environment and might harm
others. What we see right now in our society are people that
supressed this ANGER and had subconcsiosly have taken control of
them. This is why we see a lot of demons in public offices. If you
are using ANGER to create HAPPINESS, I think this will not be
possible if your ANGER is not driven by LOVE. ANGER can be chaotic,
but if it is INSPIRED by LOVE then that Anger can be like an
Adrenaline Ruch that will allow one to achieve more. When we
exercise, we create tensions in our muscles, but these should not be
all tension. We have to combine tension and relaxation in our
exercise for us not to exhaust our body. This is similar to using
such emotion for the "I". I should always take CONTROL. I have read
of military gennerals commanding their armies with an ANGRY voice.
The men did not follow the general because they were agitated, they
follow him because their LOVE for their country or their kingdom is
internalized in each one of them. Perhaps, the best way to command
people is to COMMAND them without them knowing. We never command
people to laugh when we deliver a joke or when happiness reverberate
from us, the power is so strong that this people just laugh. I
believe this is Charisma. You influence people without showing yor
FORCE, but such FORCE that comes from within, is more powerful than
any man made arms.
These two emotions, of LOVE and ANGER, brings with it PASSION. Can
one be ANGRY at the same time be HAPPY? I think this can not be the
case, but one can LOVE at the same time feel HAPPY. Therefore it is
only when a person feel LOVE that true happiness comes into being. As
I have mentioned in earlier chapter, happiness in the highest level
is realized when it is reverberated to the immediate environment. I
believe that the power of LOVE has the capacity to nourish HAPPINESS,
ad thus, bring enlightenment. Isn't the Buddha is pictured as someone
who constantly smiles. I believe tha HAPPINESS is not manifested when
you always laugh, it is manifested when you FEEL LOVE inside you.
How do I LOVE… I am used to experience ANGER that is uncontrolled to
the point that my immediate environment are influenced by this anger.
I was used in creating disorder in the system. I used this ANGER to
move me forward but it is nly now that I realized that I hav abused
it, that is why its Negative effects takes toil in my being. I
believe that LOVE coupled with ANGER is one singel emotion of great
magnitude. This one single emotion, this one single source of Energy
which comes from "I" could make oneself focus on the ESSSENTIAL and
undertake such with enthusiasm. LOVE and ANGER cannot be separated,
it is already there. One cannot isolate one from the other. The more
important thing is to make use of this energy to achieve ones
PURPOSE. We can only find that purpose through God and not from
other people.
Remember, it is alright to be ANGRY, but only for fifteen minutes.
Longer than that, that ANGER can no longer be controlled. We have to
recognize LOVE whenever we want to use ANGER. For it is thru LOVE
that we will know our purpose… It is through LOVE that we our lives
will get its MEANING.

The Master Within
|
I am the master of fate and the captain of my soul.
A lot of people blame their circumstance instead of acknowledging
that they have the capacity to take CONTROL. There are some however
who thought that they are in control but didn't realize that someone
or something is already controlling them There are some who become
masters after being taught by the greatest master of all, that which
comes from within ourselves. However, it is unfortunate, that there
are those who keeps on searching for the "greatest Master" and ends
up loosing themseves.
Belt masters. These are people who base their knowledge and skill on
a preconceived standard. Certain crafts requires a certain level of
skill. In Japan, when the samurais cease as a military offensive used
by the emperor, some of them become masters in tea ceremonies. There
are standards that are being taught for every samurai. There are
different kinds of preparing a tea, which in that time, they consider
as a noble act done side by side with their emperor whom they
consider as the Son of God. The comic relief in this situation is
that these people need not start figuring out how to master on their
own this art. There are already written scripts on how to accomplish
such. This sacred scripts are pass from one generation to another. I
believe that this is similar to how society is at the moment. We
never start from the beginning. We always presume that we know it all
because other people from the past has accepted such and such as the
inevitable reality. We cease from thinking. We cease from searching
knowledge within ourselves. We CHOSE to accept something although we
know, in our heart, that there is a better way of doing things.
Masters who have gain their masterships out of a preconceived
standard can not be consider as masters at all. They are SLAVEs. More
so, if they continue to follow something which does not work. What we
have right now in our society are a lot of blind people leading their
fellow blinds. Yes, we learn from our elders. Yes, we listen to
people. These is never wrong. What should not be the case is when we
follow them like robots. What is disheartening is when we LOOSE our
purpose because we continue to follow somehting which we does not
personally believes in.
Jedi Masters. These are people that learned through their own
experiences with the guidance of their own Mental Coaches. In
reality, we don't need teachers. We just need coaches. We already
know something, we just need someone who will allow us to remember
these things and use them in our daily lives. It is like swimming.
When we are still fetuses, we already swam in the womb of our
mothers. This is why it is easier for a one month old baby to learn
to float rather than a fouty year old person. The baby still
remembers what the environmet in his mother's womb that is why he can
float. While the fourty year old, already inhibited with Fear,
forgots all about his capacity and rememberes only his FAILURES. True
masters are those who know to use the POWER in them and to drive for
a particular PURPOSE. These are not those people who have just been
constantly reacting with what the other people are doing or what
they anticipate they will do.
Darth Vaders. These are people who chose to be the Master of all and
end up to be a master of none. These are those who CONTROL other
people using FORCE but have forgotten to take CONTROL of themselves.
It is still up to us as to what kind of Masters do we want to be…

On Remembering
|
It is only through remembering that one will find himself.
Upgrade to a new processor. Let go of the old ways of thinking.
Change is constant, the only thing that does not Change is change
itself. Inorder to remember who we are before one must be receptive
in understanding more about himself. He needs a mind that is not
depedent on what others will say or is thinking about him.
One must also Scan for viruses within ones system. These are codes
that keeps on copying itself, some are Trojan in nature. They appear
to be good yet they will destroy your system in due time. Other
reason why we cant remember is that others have already corrupted our
mind, our only processor. This viruses may come in the form of belief
system that was there even before we were born. However it is still
our CHOICE whether we will let these viruses proliferate our system.
Inorder to stop the spread of these codes one must first recognize
that he has this in his sytem. He can do this by anlyzing himself
specially the way he thinks. By revognizing that existence of
negative thoughts, he can start fixing these thoughts by knowing
their root causes. If it these viruses are just there because society
has inflicted these upon our system, then these are the easiest virus
that can be cleaned. One must just see himself as the One, the "I",
and these viruses will automatically be eradicated. If these viruses
are trojans, or principles that you thought will benefit your system,
but its maker, the devil hides his true intention in its creation,
then it is time that you need to have some Norton or McAfee or an
updated trojan remover of these softwares inorder to clean your
infected mind. These Norton can be found when you just listen closely
to those who already have find themselves and who already
understands. These are people who are willing to help you remember
more about yourself, you only have to trust...and forget what society
is telling you about them.
Delete the unwanted files in your computer so that you can save the
essential. We all have unwanted files clogged up in our system. Your
action is to SEARCH for these files then…
Delete your Dark Past. The reason why you can not remember LIGHT is
because you have corrupted your system with these files. These are
bulk folders containing spam emails that have clogged up your system.
The reason why you can no longer remember is that these files have
been placed together with other healthy files that you have. Your
Dark Past maybe an experience of Betrayal or of being abused. It may
also be a feeling of being Intimidated or being neglected. Whatever
it is that you continue to hold on your back, I tell you that it is
about time that you unburden yourself and free your soul. Life is
indeed painful at times, but it is thorugh these pain that we
experience relief. Delete your Dark Past since these are memories
that are ought to be forgotten. If they continue to slow down your
system then surely they must be removed from it.
Delete your Sorrow. The reason why you can not remember JOY is that
you have replicated Sorrow everytime you have the opportunity to do
so. People come to you to make you remember how HAPPY it is to live
life but you continue to read only Sorrow. It is a decission you made
because you have already used in reading Sorrow. Sadness had burdened
your soul. It is about time that you delete this file and remember
that once, there was this little girl who used to play around, and
she was filled with JOY in her heart.
Delete your Anger. The reason why you become so Insensitive is that
you have repressed your ANGER for such a very long time. I see it in
your eyes. I see could fire, hell's fire burning in them. If you are
angry at a person then tell him outright do not keep it to yourself.
Moreover, do not use your Mind inorder to express this anger and harm
other people. I am not saying this to protect them, im saying this
because I am concern with you. You see, whatever negative thoughts
you have inflicted upon others, you will later reap it double fold.
It will be like a tsunami that will destroy not only you but the
people you endear the most. I care for you. It is alright to be angry
but only for fifteen minutes. Longer than that you have already
created your wn demon that will sooon haunt you.
Delete your Hatred. There are some individuals who already died but
their souls remain resltless, this is because they have grip on the
grudges they have felt over someone. You tend to forget that you also
felt LOVE because of this. Your hatred has already poisoned your
heart that you thought that it is already a sin to fall in LOVE. The
highest form of Love is Liking. Your hatred has blinded you of the
fact there there are a lot of things in these world that you should
Like, that you should appreciate. Look at the rivers in Marikina.
Look at the big cinderalla shoe floating on it. Can you not
appreciate the creativity of man. Can you not Like yourself for
having the same capacity to create such wonderful things. The girl of
your dreams might have ignored you for someone else. Why hate her
when you can continue to Like her. Hating her will just give you
teary eyes, while continue Liking her will inspire you to make things
happen. Who knows, time will come that she will also appreciate you.
But I tell you this, she will never Like you if you have already
Hated her. You have to show her that you continue to Love her despite
being hurt. Be appreciative of what Life offers to you. You are
fortunate that Life allowed you to see so much BEAUTY in one person…
After deleting the files that have corrupted your system for too
long, you should now be able to REMEMBER your Vision. The key now is
to save the GOODNESS in you so that you may not forget it again.
Save Enlightenment. You have been re acquainted to the Light. What
you see now are all beauty and you now marvel at all God's creation.
You watch the seed grows into a tree and you feel so HAPPY that you
now realize that everything that happens is grounded on stable
principles, that is God. By following these principles, you will be
in harmony with yourself and the world will be in harmony with you…
Save Love. Need I say more. Always keep her in your heart. Remember
her smiles. Remember how she laugh. Remember how she talks about her
professors, how she talked about life. Remember her ideas no matter
how weird it may seem to other people. Remember her eyes that is full
of mystery, which has already been solved. Remember that she has been
a good friend even for a month… Remember that one month in your
heart… Remember LOVE.
Perform Scandisk once in a while. Defragment your files. One should
learn to evaluate oneself from time to time. Know if there are any
negative thoughts that has inhibited your mind. Defragment your files
so as to make you understand more. Remember, you understand people
better when you know more about yourself. Remember that God LOVES
you SO MUCH… He will always be there for you. You just need to listen
to Him… within your heart. Listen, He wants to tell you something now.

Service to Mankind
|
Service is the manifestation of right thinking.
Whatever you do to the poorest person you did also to Me. Happiness
is reverberated when we start caring for our immediate environment.
Lately I have been organizing forums and attending youth events, it
is now that I realized that I have done nothing for my environment.
If you want to serve mankind try planting a tree.
A Director of IPB in UPLB used to tell us that a person is fulfilled
if he has "bore a child, planted a tree or have written a book." I
believe that I must not only inspire other people to make a
difference in their life, but I should be that DIFFERENCE I want to
see in the WORLD. It should start from within me. Realizing this, I
will make it a life long commitment too plant trees. Think of all the
creatures that will benefit from a single tree planted. I will start
doing something that will benefit my immediate environment, hoping
that I could inspire them to do the same in their respective circles.
We only have to focus on One Vision. If we listen closely in our
heart, we will be aware of that One Vision.
Different animals have different HEARTS but what matters more is
when we started caring for them as a true FAMILY. I realize that one
should be in unison as one big family. We see people having the same
Vision, having the same heart but they quarel over personality, over
their own individual beliefs. Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "If you want
to be a friend, be a friend" If we really want to serve others we
have to show that we are a family to them, no more publicity, no more
pay just plain service. Our parents, when they feed us they are not
expecting to be paid. This is why it is important to treat others as
a Family and look at the world as one big Household.
There are four kinds of people who serves, this includes those who
are:
Serving with pay. These are our politicians. These are businessmen.
These are those people who are telling the public to elect them so
that they maybe able to serve. They are frauds. This is because if
they really want to serve they will just serve. They don't need any
mandate from the people. They are ususally there just for the money.
Some of them refuse to take home their slary and instead donate these
to their scholars but this is just a mere amount of what
they "normally" will receive from their "other" transactions. I
remember of a popular Senator who was just there to exoand his
business connections by heading committees in the government. Its
saddening that there are still some Senators who are just there to
play with politics instead of serving the people. Some businessmen
promote service to others, but in reality is just using the cause as
a marketing tool in order to expand their market to advocacy
orriented individuals. I am happy whenever a company does some
projects that is not, in any way, related to their marketing
strategy. The more will I admire a company if it focuses more on the
Project to be accomplished rather than the name of his own company.
Serving with publicity. These includes stars. Some agencies spends
more on publicity rather than the actual help that will go to a
particular cause. Some just have their pictures taken while
apparently "serving" their community in order to increase their
credentials so that more people will recognize them. There are some
stars who instead of serving the people, have disempowered them when
they have infused the dream of their Director to the minds of these
individuals. Instead of allowing the people to remember their purpose
in life, some acted as if they are the only PURPOSE that others must
continue to admire and follow. This, to the point that others will
forget to even serve themselves because they are so enamored with
the idea of meeting a star.
Serving without pay nor publicity. These includes our parents. This
includes our FAMILY. If only we will serve other people and care for
them as if they are our children or our siblings, then we will have
harmony inthis world we live in.

Love and Like
|
The highest form of Love is Liking.
I have talked about Love one way or the other in all the previous
Chapter. Let me now categorize the Love I have been talking about. It
is my hope that people will Love more once they have understood, once
they have remembeed themselves.
Love towards an animal. There are some individuals who love their pet
cat more than their husbands or their children. But this kind of love
I am referring to happens when someone assumes that he is higher than
the other person. When he treats the other person as of lower in
nature. This is that kind of love that you will give to these people
the food which you yourself will no longer eat.
Love towards material things. This is the form of love where people
start possessing other people and viewing them as objecs instead of
appreciating them the way they are. Some even use their partners as a
sexual object underminning that these people have also feelings.
Appreciating something without possessing it so that others may also
see its beauty. When we look at the sun setting in the sky. When we
look at the eyes of the girl whom we like or when we look at her in
general.
Love of a man to a woman. When a man acts as a companion to his
woman, willing to just be there and listen to all the things that
seems to bother her or that she is afraid of.
Love of a parent to their offspring. When a mother will ensure that
her children will eat first before she even feed herself. This is
that kind of love.
Love of man to his country. It is when someone is willing to give up
his own life so that others may live thus this love takes into being.
Love of man to his God. When he learns to Love himself and this Love
reverberated to his immediate environment, is he able to manifest
that kind of Love.

I the Center of My Universe
|
"Uni" means one, "verse" is word. I am the center of this Universe.
Whenever I made poem, I allow my soul to write for me. I search from
within myself, why then are other people able to relate to my poems.
This is because from within me, there, are those people. Thus, it is
only through knowing yourself fully that one will be able to
understand others.
Man searching for extraterrestrials. They thought these beings
created meaning for their own existence which is not the fact.
Man searching for the truth. But such truth has been transfremed to
what the rulers of society I a given time wants inorder to have more
CONTROL to his people.
Man searching for true love. When a man search for his woman, hoping
that he will know himself more when he understands his woman.
Man searching for wisdom from the outside. Some people read books in
order to gain wisdom forgetting the fact that true wisdom comes from
within.
Man searching for himself. The great thing about searching for
oneself is that we need not look far, we just need to look deep.
Notice that in UNITY, the center most word is "I".

Business Logistics: Youth Leading the way
|
I believe that the way to empower the nation is through its economy. I realize that it is through an efficient distribution system that will allow our local players to be able to compete in a fair platform agains Multi National Enterprises or MNEs. She told me regarding the Pareto Optimal, that there can be more Nash Equilibrium in different economies. The Philippines per se is made up of different sub sectors and growing industry. The agricultural sector, which is one of the primary sectors that has a great impact to our economy could be further be subdivided in more livelihood themes which are an economy in itself. The key is how we could systematize the operation of each of these economies so that we can achieve Pareto Optimal.

VoIP define
|
VoIP stands for Voice over Internet Protocol. By using VoIP phones and technology you can effectively use the internet to make phone calls. This is done by placing the voice calls on network which encrypts the voice in data packets at one end and encrypts it in voice calls at the other end. This encryption and decryption is from a analog signal (i.e. your voice call) into digital signal (data packets) and again into the analog signal.
You can make VOIP calls by a regular phone with VOIP adapter or even from your computer using a simple microphone. VoIP applications can generally be used with a simple microphone and computer speakers, but IP telephones or VoIP boxes can also be used, providing an experience identical to normal telephoning. Many manufacturers are designing phones which are specially meant to work with this technology, called SIP phone.
In the past year, the quality and reliability of VoIP technology has improved to the point that vast numbers of users have abandoned their standard telephone contracts entirely, in favor of VoIP. Local as well as long distance calling is available for VoIP. Rates and plans can vary from one service provider to another.
Advantages of using VOIP
Using VOIP you can effectively cut down your phone bills, since you just pay to your regular internet connection and small fees to your VOIP service provider. Setting up conference calls with VOIP is very easy.
You can even set up your own network and don't need any special equipments like PBX etc. You can call to any local telephone, mobile, long distance number or any international number. More importantly, the person you are calling does not need any special equipment; just a regular telephone.
Many additional features like call forwarding, call tracing, reminders, caller ID are readily available. You can even assign a local telephone number to your VOIP phone set, and just need a fast internet connection to use your VOIP service anywhere in the world.
VoIP Dilemna
VoIP applications and services require data transfer in real time. During a call an interactive data voice exchange takes place. Unfortunately, TCP/IP is not best suited for this purpose. Sometimes you have to wait for few seconds, to hear other side answering. But with recent development we are streaming the flow of voice signals in a improved manner but still the quality is not that sharp with respect to PSTN lines.

Frequently Asked Questions
|
What is VoIP/Internet Voice?
VoIP allows you to make telephone calls using a computer network, over a data network like the Internet. VoIP converts the voice signal from your telephone into a digital signal that travels over the internet then converts it back at the other end so you can speak to anyone with a regular phone number. When placing a VoIP call using a phone with an adapter, you'll hear a dial tone and dial just as you always have. VoIP may also allow you to make a call directly from a computer using a conventional telephone or a microphone.
How Can I Place a VoIP Call?
Depending on the service, one way to place a VoIP call is to pick up your phone and dial the number, using an adaptor that connects to your existing high-speed Internet connection. The call goes through your local telephone company to a VoIP provider. The phone call goes over the Internet to the called party's local telephone company for the completion of the call. Another way is to utilize a microphone headset plugged into your computer. The number is placed using the keyboard and is routed through your cable modem.
What Kind of Equipment Do I Need?
A broadband (high speed Internet) connection is required. This can be through a cable modem, or high speed services such as DSL or a local area network. You can hook up an inexpensive microphone to your computer and send your voice through a cable modem or connect a phone directly to a telephone adaptor.
Is there a difference between making a Local Call and a Long Distance Call?
Some VoIP providers offer their services for free, normally only for calls to other subscribers to the service. Your VoIP provider may permit you to select an area code different from the area in which you live. This means you may not incur long distance charges if you call a number in your area code regardless of geography. It also means that people who call you may incur long distance charges depending on their area code and service.
Some VoIP providers charge for a long distance call to a number outside your calling area, similar to existing, traditional wireline telephone service. Other VoIP providers permit you to call anywhere at a flat rate for a fixed number of minutes.
If I have VoIP service, who can I call?
Depending upon your service, you might be limited only to other subscribers to the service, or you may be able to call any phone number, anywhere in the world. The call can be made to a local number, a mobile phone, to a long distance number, or an international number. You may even utilize the service to speak with more than one person at a time. The person you are calling does not need any special equipment, just a phone.
What Are Some Advantages of Internet Voice?
Because VoIP is digital, it may offer features and services that are not available with a traditional phone. If you have a broadband internet connection, you need not maintain and pay the additional cost for a line just to make telephone calls.
With many VoIP plans you can talk for as long as you want with any person in the world (the requirement is that the other person has an Internet connection). You can also talk with many people at the same time without any additional cost.
What Are Some disadvantages of Internet Voice?
If you're considering replacing your traditional telephone service with VoIP, there are some possible differences:
Some VoIP services don't work during power outages and the service provider may not offer backup power.
Not all VoIP services connect directly to emergency services through 9-1-1.
VoIP providers may or may not offer directory assistance/white page listings.
Can I use my Computer While I talk on the Phone?
Yes
Can I Take My Phone Adapter with me When I Travel?
You may be able to use your VoIP service wherever you travel as long as you have a high speed Internet connection available. In that case it would work the same as from your home or business.
Does my Computer Have to be Turned on?
Not if you are making calls with a phone and adaptor or special VoIP phone, but your broadband Internet connection needs to be active. You can also use your computer while talking on the phone.
How Do I Know If I have a VoIP phone Call?
It will ring like any other call.
Does the FCC Regulate VoIP?
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has worked to create an environment promoting competition and innovation to benefit consumers. Historically, the FCC has not regulated the Internet or the services provided over it. On February 12, 2004, the FCC found that an entirely Internet-based VoIP service was an unregulated information service. On the same day, the FCC began a broader proceeding to examine what its' role should be in this new environment of increased consumer choice and what it can best do to meet its role of safeguarding the public interest.
Aspects of these considerations may change with new developments in internet technology. You should always check with the VoIP service provider you choose to confirm any advantages and limitations to their service.
