This blog simply relates the gist of a Kagay-anon's life. Life itself offers multi-colored, black and white facades of its reality.
Be it the basic and complex, little and big, joy and sorrow, the ups and downs, trials and triumphs, success and failure, pain and laughter, the understood and stereotyped, and for whatever spices it has to bring.
And whatever it maybe, one thing is for sure, there is a God that protects, unites, blesses and keeps peace in the beautiful city of Cagayan de Oro.
Meditating on the message that the Lord is impressing in this passage is for us to Trust Him.
Whatever we are holding now, may it be dear and precious to us, if God is asking us to let it go because He has a purpose of doing so, then, we must trust His heart, it is there that we will, in the end, be thankful and praise Him for that very purpose of His perfect will and beautiful time. -------------------------------------------------------------- Happy WFW!
I had always longed to have my own room back when I still didn’t have. I planned the ‘interior’ design, how it would like, where I would place and position my things (not to mention my study table and a whole lot of books!), and settle my very own bed. Before, I had to sleep in the sofa in our living room, I also had a choice to sleep with my mom’s room and I realized that I had the space but thought that it’s very much different when you get to have your own room. I couldn’t agree with that previous statement more! Especially when it comes to having your own bed! Where you could lie down, freely move side to side, all the space is yours! Nothing beats a cozy, fluffy, warm bed. I wished I had something like that of a log bunk bed. I myself am an action person when I sleep, in that sense, I really move a lot especially when I don’t have the best position of sleep and if I am not comfortable where I am lying on! Boy, having that kind of bed is indeed like heaven of sleep! :) Plus, the aesthetics comes along with it! It absolutely blends with nature, so woody and oh! It really fits my pro-eco personality!
One thing’s for sure; sleep is a vital need of people. What more could be a major factor to induce that? It’s choosing a bed that suits you!
I really love this movie. With fantasy and comedy combined all together, this movie rocked! Also with two best actors fit for the roles of the two brothers that gave this movie a blast of fun, laughter, comical thriller, and magic!

When I was searching for a music video as my entry on this week's TSMSS and expecting for the song that I was looking for, I managed to stumble on this video and when I heard the music, it was a familiar yet one of the heart-stirring songs that I love. The lyrics are just compelling to the inner mind, heart, soul and spirit. --------------------------------------------------------------
It's all about You, Jesus And all this is for You For Your glory and your fame It's not about me As if You should do things my way You alone are God And I surrender to your ways
Jesus, lover of my soul All consuming fire is in Your gaze Jesus, I want you to know I will follow you all my days For no one else in history is like you And history itself belongs to you Alpha and Omega, You have loved me And I will share eternity with You
--------------------------------------- It's not about me Jesus.. all of this very life is ALL about YOU.
A wacky and instant pose as soon as I spotted the camera! Here with me are my church mates, friends, and core leaders in the youth group. After swimming, we had a serious yet intimate time together. :)
Post your pictures of you and you with others here in this meme! Click on!
This was in our Youth core group bonding and team building. We had so much fun in and out of the water! Me and my friend here are on the sides of the pool because we couldn't anymore tiptoe ourselves in the depth of the water! Talk about height! :( Tsk!
One time, we had this educational tour in the school that I was working. We were in the middle of the highway, going home bound. When suddenly, our partner bus pulled over because their tires just gave off! Then I just asked myself, where could be the nearest repair shop?! Time is running and we have some schedule to follow and a time arrival to achieve! I just pondered, I wished here in our country, we could have some pit-stops wherein theire would be immediate auto-repair stop-overs just like that of Los Angeles auto repair. We sure could use their way of dealing with repairs! They know the best locations where they we could find the great fixings and reliable mechanics! Talk about good service!
Well since we’re talking about cars and all, who would then not dream of having a Ford? Particularly a Ford Explorer. Well, If I do own one, I would take care of it as if it we’re part of the family. And I will make sure it gets to be taken care of, managed, and checked on a regular basis. Well, that someday will really come for me. In addition, I’d be certain I would be given service by one of Los Angeles auto repair shops, I wouldn’t want my car's head gasket to break down in the long run! This part of the car is like one of the hearts! Without it in proper function, then say goodbye to your travels!
This is a good-to-know for all you car-lovers and car-owners out there! Mine will soon come! :)
It is amazing and indeed being blessed to just embrace God's word that is eternal. All in this earthly home is temporary, but the word of the Lord stands forever,
This is a must-see thriller movie! I am very well sure this movie will hit the top list of genetically-engineered themes!
From the renowned producers of big hits movies from that of Pan's labyrinth and Transformers comes another science-fiction phenomena with a taste of suspense!
Curiosity and for the love of experiment, two renowned scientists embark on another edge of genetic engineering as they introduce human DNA into one of their lab experiments. At first, they have a glimpse of a successful creation but in the end, it was a threat after all when it had gone into metamorphosis!
Just want to share this. Very encouraging, inspiring,
direct to the point, and worth the learning!

At last! finally! I have an entry for the Scenic Sunday meme!
Thanks to a good friend of mine (Aninz!) for this shot! Great shot isn't it? This is in Camiguin, and this place is known as the 'Sunken Cemetery.' I have never been in this place, but I sure do want to go there! They said that in this Island, you can tour it around in just one day! Imagine! Camiguin Island is known also for its scenic views, white-sand beaches, a dormant volcano, and all the nature!
When can the killer treasure a betting knight?
Hoping that one day will soon come! Sooner or later! =)
When one will just internalize the song, the message is as deep as it could touch the hardest of hearts. =)
Here's the lyrics:
As little children We would dream of Christmas morn Of all the gifts and toys We knew we'd find But we never realized A baby born one blessed night Gave us the greatest gift of our lives
We were the reason That He gave His life We were the reason That He suffered and died To a world that was lost He gave all He could give To show us the reason to live
As the years went by We learned more about gifts The giving of ourselves And what that means On a dark and cloudy day A man hung crying in the rain All because of love, all because of love
I've finally found the reason for living It's in giving every part of my heart to Him In all that I do every word that I say I'll be giving my all just for Him, for Him
He is my reason to live --------------------------------------------------------
It is not necessarily a song to be played and listened every Christmas for us to be reminded, but it is in everyday life.
Today the Filipino Nation is once again celebrating the freedom our heroes in the past fought for!That is why we must not belittle this momentous and historical event, for what freedom and liberty we are enjoying today is what we owe to the countless heroes who gave their lives for it!
Mabuhay ang Filipino! Mabuhay ang Pinoy! Mabuhay tayong lahat!
One of the many wacky, weird, and fun poses with my dear friends in the church! Hmmm, can't remember though when this was taken. Oh! I remember it was during our youth month celebration. My, years have indeed passed, look, my hair is so long that time! I miss my long hair :(

Christians as we are should be the light and salt of the world. The world is blind without the light of Jesus shone through us. So let us shine out. Shine for Jesus!
