A LEAF

 ("Leaf departure is because of Wind pursuit. Or because Tree didn't ask her to stay.")

I like to collect leaves. Why? Because I felt that for a leaf to leave the tree she has been relying on for so long it takes a lot of courage. During 3 years, I was on very close terms with a guy. Not BGR kind but as buddy kind. But when he had his 1st girlfriend,I learned a feeling I never should have learn-jealousy. The sourness in the heart can’t be described by using a lemon. It’s like 100 rotten sour lemons. Sourness to the extreme limit. They were only together for 2 months. When they broke up, I hide my strong sense of happiness. But after a month, he got together with another gal.

I like him and I know he likes me. But why won’t he pursue me? Since he loves me why he doesn’t want to make the first move? Whenever he had a new girlfriend, my heart would hurt. Time after time, my heart was hurt. I begin to suspect that this is a one sided love. If he doesn’t like me, why does he treat me so well? It’s beyond what you will normally do for a friend. Liking a person is very heart wrenching. I can know his likes, his habits. But his feelings towards me I can never figure out. You can’t expect me a gal to ask him right?

Despite that, I still want to be by his side. Care for him, love him. Hoping that one day, he will come and love me. It’s like waiting for his phone call every night, wanting him to send me sms. I know that no matter how busy he is, he will make time for me. Because of this, I waited for him. The 3 years were the hardest to go through and I really want to give up. Sometimes, I wonder should I continue waiting. The pain and hurt, the dilemma accompany me for 3 years.



Till the end of time, a gust wind begins to go after me. Everyday he pursuit me relentlessly. From outright rejection to a point in time when I felt that I'm willing to let him have a small footing in my heart. He's like a warm and gentle wind, trying to blow a leaf away from the tree. I want to leave the tree because I feel he didn't recognize my presence and didn't ask me to stay. Leaf departure is because of wind pursuit. Or because tree didn't ask her to stay.

“WIKANG FILIPINO: MULA BALER HANGGANG BUONG PLIPINAS.”

 (ito ang sanaysay ko noong nakaraang Buwan ng Wika.)

Ang Baler ay isang maliit na lugar sa Tayabas na siyang sinilangan ng Ama ng Wikang Pambansa sa katauhan ni Manuel Luis Quezon. Pinili nila ang Baler dahil nagpapasalamat tayo na kung hindi dahil sa Baler walang Manuel Quezon na magtataguyod ng sariling wika na ngayon ya ginamit at sumisimbolo sa pagkakauklod ng ating bansa. Mula sa lugar na ito ay nagsisimula ang pagsisikap ng mga Pilipino na makamtan ang tunay na kapayapaan ng bawat isa.

Ngayong taon na ito ay ipagdiriwang ng Bayan ng Baler ang ika-400 taon ng pagkakatatag nito. Ang isinasaad dito na ang ating wika ay laganap hindi lamang sa pinagmulan nito, maging sa sulok ng ating bansa. Marapat lamang na ating pahalagahan ito at pagyamanin. Mas nararapat na ating iwaksi ang mga wikang banyaga sapagkat inilalayo tayo nito sa ating tunay na kayamanan. Pagyamanin natin ang ating sariling wika hind lamang sa iisang lalawigan o bayan kundi mas lalong payabungin sa buong bansa. Nararapat na mas gamitin at pahalagahan ng tanan o madla sa bayan ng Baler ang Wikang Filipio sapagkat sa kanila magmula ang naturang paggamit nito tungo sa patuloy na pagyabong nito sa kabansaan.

Ang Baler ay maituturing nating isang tuldok sa mata ng bawat isa subalit ito ang nagbigay sa atin ng kalayaan, kapayapaan at pagkakaisa upang makamit natin ang tagumpay. At ang tagumpay na ito ang siyang naghatid sa atin upang maunawaan ang tunay na kahulugan ng isang buhay BUHAY PILIPINO. Bagkus nakakatuwa pa rin isipin na buhay na buhay pa rin an gating wika sa buong sulok ng pilipinas. Siyanga, kaya narapat lamang na atin pa itong gamitin at ipagmalaki. Lalo pa nating pagsisikapang mga Pilipino na maging mayabong pa tulad ng mga bulaklak na walang kasing-bango.

"Wastong Nutrisyon Kailangan. Lifestyle Diseases Iwasan"

 (this was my essay on the theme last nutrition month but unfortunately, this didn't won.huhuhu)
Our heath is directly related to our attitudes, our thoughts, emotions, and beliefs from the way we view everything in life. This is because the mind and the body are closely linked and constantly communicated with each other. So, we should be aware and focused on our health and not on our weight. Poor body image is caused in eating disorders and it leads to a health crisis. Most of teenagers are on dieting, fasting, and skipping their meals because they are trying to fit their body mold but they cannot. It is because they go for long of periods of time without eating. After of periods of fasting, in a frenzy of hunger, they eat too much to compensate for their hunger and end up eating more because they do not slow down enough to acknowledge that they are full. These unhealthy routine leads to a wide range of problems, the most prominent of which is the high rate of obesity. Most of us are overweight despite the fact that we claim we are on a diet. This trend is dangerous since obesity is linked to heart attacks, strokes, cancer and diabetes.

Proper nutrition plays a major role in the prevention, control and management of lifestyle non-communicable diseases. Hippocrates once said “Let thy medicine be food and let food be thy medicine.” We need food for nourishment, of course. Food is more than just fuel. In celebration of the National Nutrition Month this July with the theme,”Wastong Nutrisyon Kailangan, Lifestyle Diseases Iwasan!”We should develop nutritional guidelines aimed to promote healthy diets and health practices to achieve the goal of improving our nutritional condition and preventing lifestyle diseases.

With the changing lifestyle of Filipinos, non-communicable diseases like UTI, ulcer, diabetes, colon cancer, cholesterol and high blood are becoming significant public health problems. Unhealthy body can cause people to live shorter lives. Healthy diets, regular exercise, abstinence from smoking and moderate alcohol intake are key components of a healthy lifestyle. It is about wellness, and wholeness, eating in normal, healthy ways and living actively. Realistic visions of beauty show to us that character, confidence, self-esteem and healthy lifestyles are important aspects of beauty than looks.

A LOVE STORY



Once a lady when having a conversation with her lover, asked:

Lady :
Why do you like me..? Why do you love me?

Man :
I can’t tell the reason.. but I really like you..

Lady :
You can’t even tell me the reason... how can you say you like me? How can you say you love me?

Man :
I really don’t know the reason, but I can prove that I love U.


Lady :
Proof? No! I want you to tell me the reason.

My friend’s boyfriend can tell her why he loves her but why can't you!?


Man :
Ok..ok!!! my lady... because you are beautiful,

because your voice is sweet,

because you are caring,

because you are loving,

because you are thoughtful,

because of your smile

because of your every movements.

The lady felt very satisfied with the man’s answer.


Unfortunately, a few days later,

the Lady met with an accident and went in comma.


The Guy then placed a letter by her side,

Here is the content:

Darling, Because of your sweet voice that I love you...

Now can you talk? No! Therefore I cannot love you.

Because of your care and concern that I like you.

Now that you cannot show them,

Therefore I cannot love you.

Because of your smile,

because of your every movements that I love you..

Now can you smile? Now can you move?

No, therefore I cannot love you...
If love needs a reason, like now,

There is no reason for me to love you anymore.

Does love need a reason?

NO! Therefore,

I still LOVE YOU...

"True love never dies for it is lust that fades away.
Love bonds for a lifetime but lust just pushes away"

Immature love says: 'I love you because I need you.'
