AUTUMN IN NEW YORK

EVEN WHEN I AS A CHILD I ALWAYS MINGLED WITH OLDER PEOPLE AND SOMEHOW LEARN FROM THEM. NOW IN MY FORTIES, I HAVE A PRIVILEGE TO BE WITH MEN TWENTY YEARS OLDER THAN ME AND I LOVE TO HEAR THEIR FABULOUS STORIES.

I ALWAYS HEAR THEM SAY, LIVE YOUR LIFE TO THE FULLEST BECAUSE YOU WILL ONLY SET YOUR FOOT ONCE ON THIS PLANET AND LIFE IS TOO SHORT. THERE IS NO NEED TO BE LONELY ENJOY YOUR LIFE.

OF COURSE YOUNGER WOMEN HAVE A LOT TO DO TO MAKE THESE MEN HAPPY, ESPECIALLY WIDOWERS AND THE SEPARATED ONES.

NOW, I HAVE ALSO A CHANCE TO WATCH A DIFFERENT LOVE STORY ENTITLED AUTUMN IN NEW YORK STARRING RICHARD GERE AND WINNONA RYDER. IT IS A DIFFERENT LOVE STORY NOT BECAUSE AN OLDER GUY IN THE PERSON OF RICHARD FALL IN LOVES WITH A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG LADY IN THE PERSON OF WINNONA.

THERE ARE A LOT OF MOVIES MADE LIKE THAT AND BESIDE IT HAPPENS IN REAL LIFE. TODAY, WOMEN PREPARED OLDER GUYS.

IT IS AN EXTRA-ORDINARY LOVE STORY NOT BECAUSE A HEALTHY GUY FALL IN LOVES WITH A SICK WOMAN AND VICE-VERSA AND EITHER OF THE ONE HAVE A FEW MOMENTS TO SPEND ON THIS PLANET.

THIS TOO IS A COMMON THEME AMONG LOVE STORY FILMS. A WALK TO REMEMBER AND STAIRWAYS TO HEAVEN ARE FEW EXAMPLES.

IT IS AN EXTRA-ORDINARY MOVIE SIMPLY BECAUSE AN OLD WOMANIZER GUY FALL IN LOVES WITH A YOUNG LADY WHOSE ABOUT TO LAST FOR ONLY A YEAR.

THE LYRICS OF THE SONG, “I WAS BORN FOR YOU AND THE WORLD BELONGS TO YOU AND ME SINKS DEEPER INSIDE ONES HEART.”

YES, IT IS NICE TO BE IN LOVE, BUT DON’T WAIT TOO LONG AND PLEASE ENJOY EACH OTHER BEFORE AUTUMN FALLS.

"SALUBONG" - SEMANA SANTA 2019

I WAS RAISED AS ROMAN CATHOLIC BY MY PARENTS. WHEN I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL, I WAS CONVERTED TO BAPTIST. THEN MY JOURNEY AS A BIBLE BELIEVER AND MY CURIOSITY TO KNOW RELIGION BECOMES STRONGER. I FOUND MYSELF STUDYING THE BIBLE IN BETHANY BAPTIST BIBLE COLLEGE IN DIAN ST. MAKATI CITY. THERE, I FINISHED MY BASIC BIBLE COURSE. THEN I PURSUE MY BACHELOR OF THEOLOGY DEGREE IN CENTRAL BIBLE COLLEGE. I ALSO TOOK SPECIAL COURSES IN PRESBYTERIAN THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY WHERE I FINISH MY SPECIAL COURSE IN THEOLOGY. I HEARD ABOUT "SALUBONG" DURING SEMANA SANTA, AND MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, SEEN THIS DURING MY CHILDHOOD BUT MY MEMORIES HAS BEEN ERASED BY SO MANY NEW INPUTS ENTERED TO MY BRAIN. FROM A REFORMED CATHOLIC VIEW AND FROM WHAT I WITNESSED THIS MORNING, LET ME TELL YOU THE STORY OF THE "SALUBONG". THE WHOLE CHRISTIANITY WAS SADDENED BY THE NEWS OVER THE DEATH OF JESUS CHRIST THROUGH CRUCIFIXION MUCH MORE MARY THE MOTHER OF JESUS BEAR THE PAIN.

WHAT HAS BEEN BROKEN IS BROKEN

"Nothing is ever truly broken". That is the philosophy behind the ancient Japanese Arts of Kintsugi, which repairs smashed pottery by using beautiful seams of gold. This practice started way, way back in the 15th Century when Japanese Military Commander Ashikaga Yoshimasa accidentally broke one of his favorite Chinese tea pot. (picture taken from BBC Arts Get Creative) Because he loves so much the tea pot, Commander Yoshimasa went to repair shop to get it fixed.But he was dismay over the result. From then on, Japanese Craftsmen come up with more pleasing method of repair. As you can see it from the illustration above and because of the treatment and application being applied no trace of evidence that it was formerly broken into pieces. I wish that this method of fixing broken teapots either made of glass or ceramic can also be applied in our relationship once it was broken into pieces.
