bitter surprises

Here in my virtual world, I met different people, unique personalities..some passed by, some stayed for months, while a few remained closer to me even outside the blog community. We built a virtual world where truest friendship lives. They became a part of my daily routine, a sweet part of my so-called personal life.

"Look Bro, we got more fans!"


At this time, I wanna share with you one of the most precious chapters of my virtual-personal world..
It's all about---
I met one very good friend in bloggers community.

Fewest facts about him:

* I used to call him my "devil-cupid", if ever you wonder how I met my new love, it's his doing. he and his cousin made me realize how I love her.
* He's a blogger who doesn't own a single blogsite but a very faithful commentor on my posts and my hon's pieces.

* He's responsible of my inbox-overload.

* He's my older version, we had the same story.

* He's my big brother.

" Bro, i'm not really small, am i??"

= From the time I met him, I knew I found a clown. Yes, a clown. He wore a big smile on his face, he teased, laughed..my ideal playmate! He played along with me in bloggers. He teased me most often, he even told my should-be secrets!
"Bro! brain freeeezze!!"

"Ok Bro, so this is our hide out.. You sure the girls won't find us here??"


= But behind this crazy comedian is a faithful husband, a loving father. Such character every man should possess. My brother found his true love. She was his life. I can attest to how much he loved her. His queen, his bestfriend. He told me his love story several times and he gave me advices of dealing with true love. I admire him everytime he proved his love for her.

Until one day, God took her away. He didn't know she had a heart ailment. She kept it 'til her last breath. She passed away just last month. I felt sorry for my bro. He tried to overcome his sadness and lived for the sake of their kids. He was a strong man. He managed to show he's moving on, that he must move on like any matured responsible man and father.


====================================

I was on a trip to celebrate my birthday with my friends, planning to come back with my pics to share here. I wanted to make a happy post like I used to in this site..but an unknown tragedy happened the day before my bday.

As narrated by a friend (his brother-in-law), my brother was rushed to the hospital. Two bottles of pills comforted him in his longing for his wife. I can't believe it happened. We were just exchanging mails few days before my birthday. He poured to me his grief and regrets. I knew he missed her so much and he can't win her back from God.

Yesterday, a wrong info was relayed to us. I cried upon knowing that my Bro is gone. A certain bad person made us believe Lance was dead. What a stupid attempt to fool us!

His bro-in-law clarified everything now. Lance has a brain damaged and a part of his body is paralyzed. I'm sad of my Bro's condition, yet, I'm happy he's alive and will soon kick that bad a**!!!

"I'm strong Bro, don't worry my baby muscles are the firmest!"

This post is dedicated
to my blogger friend and Big Bro -
Lance.


Big Brother,

I don't know how to explain my sadness of your condition. I used to mislook your messages in my inbox due to my busy routine. I used just to smile on your advices 'coz you put a lot of effort to convince me everyday. I'm sorry for getting mad at those times when you're trying to push plans on me. I was angry but you didn't leave me.
Now, I checked my inbox. Wishing yesterday was only a bad dream. I was waiting for your message but you didn't come, I'm disappointed.

I know I hate what you did..and I wish you won't do it again..don't make me super-mad!



**Let this song be a reminder..each of us deserves a New Beautiful Life..we just have to be open
~~this song is specially dedicated to my Hon, Gracey and Big Bro.




Let me just say..
"Will you please wear this Big Bro?"



Beanizer: "For your recovery bro, I'll do a sacrifice,
I WILL BE CHOCO-LESS until you get well"
(pls recover as fast as possible)

~~tragedy on cruel Monday~~

I was hesitant to include this post in my blog. Yet, I am fully aware that I have a responsibility to save the name of my country from the hatred of other people's minds and hearts.

Some of my Filipino friends in the blogosphere had done their part:

and so allow me to share mine..


August 23, 2010 marks a bloodshed. A hostage drama that lasted at least 10 hours and ended the lives of nine people (8 Chinese tourists & the hostage taker).
The hostage taker is a former Senior Inspector who is asking to reinstate him in the police force after being dismissed due to robbery and extortion cases against him and other policemen.

The 55 year old Senior Inspector (hostage-taker) has been awarded as one of the Top Most Outstanding Policemen of the Country and received lots of awards when he was still in service. Two years before his retirement, he was terminated due to cases filed against him. Desperate enough to get his job back, he hi-jacked the tourist bus.

At the beginning of the drama(10am), he released 10 hostages and allowed the supply of food for the remaining 15 hostages inside the bus.


I never expect that my longing to watch a new action movie will be answered by a real and live telecast of such tragedy. Me and my sis were stuck in the sofa, watching every scene. If only the police men can hear us yell at them. It was a mixed emotion. I feel sorry for the hostages, pity the hostage-taker and hate the police for their blunders.

To all the people of Hong Kong, I am very sorry.
We, Filipinos, understand how you feel.
We mourn like you do.
We never wanted this bloodshed.
But please don't hate us and our country.

It was an isolated case.
Please do open your minds and hearts for forgiveness.
Philippines has been a home for most Chinese people.
Filpinos are known to be one of the most-caring, loving and
hospitable people all over the world.
We treated you as our brothers/sisters all throughout the years
and we will forever treat you as part of who we are.


Again, we NEVER wanted this.
Please don't hate us.

* To all Chinese people who is dwelling in our country,
hope you can have the courage to attest how your second home took care of you..
and help patch the friendship between our countries.
