Kapara



ika'y mistulang dagat
na kay lalim arukin.
sa 'yong kababawan,
lagaslas sa dalampasigan.



sa pag-ihip ng hangin,
alon mo'y naglalambing.
laman ng 'yong isip
ay kay hirap sisirin.




taglay mong katangian
ay likas na kayamanan.
dulot ay kagalakan
sa tanang nasisilayan.




subalit kung marungisan
ng salot at karimlan,
sadya ngang kalupitan
ang tinamong kasawian.




isang bangkang naglalayag
sa pusod mo'y napadpad.
kalinga mo'y di sumapat
lumayo at tuluyang umusad.




kay gandang pagmasdan
ang iyong kalawakan
salamin sa kalangitan
lihim na sinulyapan.




sa paglubog ng araw
and tana'y naghihintay.
buwan ang kaulayaw
hanggang sa bukang-liwayway.

    dapit hapon ang pinaka gusto kong tanawin sa dagat, ang ginintuang silahis ng araw na humahalik sa tubig at nag-aagaw na liwanag at dilim sa kalangitan ang nagbibigay pag asa sa akin na bawat problema ko ay mayroon katapusan at meron inaasahang liwanag sa pagsikat ng araw kinabukasan

    Ang kalikasan ay natural na maganda kaya's sana ito'y mapangalagaan ng mabuti.

    Ang ganda ng tula. Nature speaks so much. It is like you're dreaming. This is the best poem I've ever read. Seriously, I was captured with the photo used here. It is not an easy matter to express so well without images on it. Right?

    Saludo ako sa iyong tula. Nailarawan mo ng husto ang kagandahan ng atin kalikasan. Mula sa bukang-liwayway hanggang takip-silim. Isa lang ang pinag-iisipan ko. bakit ginamit mong pamagat ang 'kapara'. Nais mo bang mahiwagaan ang iyong mga tagabasa? Ako'y pinag-isip , ano ba ang kahulugan ng salitang ito.

    Nature, sunset, both brings inner joy to those who appreciates it. The sunset brings hope for a better tomorrow. Nature at its best, never fails to reminds us to appreciate whatever we have in our life.

    Nakaka-miss ang mga ganyang view. Sa sobrang busy ng lifestyle ngayon, lalo na ang tulad kong empleyado sa araw at blogger sa gabi, madalas digital na lang ang mga sunsets.

    Ang kalikasan ay maraming pwedeng maidulot sa atin, una, ito'y nagbibigay buhay, pangalawa, maaari itong magbigay ng inspirasyon, tulad ng nangyari sa iyo.

    Pangalagaan ang kalikasan.

Lizette Turns 18 - The Opening Prayer

Image
Every milestone in life is a remarkable event... an occasion to celebrate and be grateful for. Nothing is worthier than appreciating God's blessings and praising Him everyday. Either in joy or sorrow, we close our eyes... kneel down to ask for guidance and utter our intentions.

The most anticipated day has come. November 16, 2013 marked the 18th birthday of my daughter.

As we shared a momentous night in her life, we offered a prayer to ask for the Holy Spirit to come upon us and bowed our heads in God's divine presence.



The opening prayer was delivered by:

Claire Dave Ellis Magos, younger cousin of our debutante, currently in 7th Grade at La Immaculada Concepcion School. Their closeness goes beyond being cousins because Lizette treats her like a baby sister.

THE OPENING PRAYER

"GOD of all creation, worthy of our praise, we are grateful for Your presence in this evening’s celebration of life. We thank You for this opportunity in bringing us together and share a glorious even…

MyeDomain.info Is Now on Track

The last few days of February had been terrible due to my family's battle with contagious URTI (upper respiratory tract infection). We were all sick and the least that I can do ONLINE is to LIKE and SURF.

When I felt a bit OK... I got the chance to update some of my online tasks and was able to successfully transfered my GoDaddy domain to my blogspot site, 8 March 2013, after having tried a number of times... It was a TRIAL and ERROR, because I have no idea about how it's done like the technicalities... fortunately, all my hard works paid off by the kind help of google of course.

Why Blogging?

Image
After almost 15 years of idyllic yet a little obnoxious stint in an office environment, I found myself in front of our computer most of the time because of my newly discovered world: the blogosphere. Well defined as the "world of blogs" or a collective whole of all the blogs in the Internet.

I started blogging last May of this year and I am truly delighted with this experience. Firstly, writing is my passion though I considered myself not that professional like a novelist or lyricist, playwright or journalist. I just know how to write but I'm not any "master" of this academe. Secondly, through writing, I can convey what goes in my mind and put them in words. Thirdly, I can freely express my innermost feelings about what I see, what I hear, taste and even the most aromatic scent that can touch my sensitivity.

Mye Domain will be turning six months this coming November and I am in fact very grateful for my family for being so supportive of me. This is what m…

My Daily Routine

Image
Waking up with a list of tasks to undertake has become a daily regimen. These must be performed otherwise... everything will pile up and if chores accumulate... the BIG "S" (stress) will take over my system and my asthma attacks will follow. This is a chain reaction and I have no other better alternative but to get things done and over with. My work place starts in the bedroom, then in the kitchen, dining, living, bathroom practically.. all around the house
or even out like in school, bank, supermarket and drugstore.
I still have online activities
that need my attention as well.
