Beer o biro

Natural sa tao na maghanap ng kaaliwan.
Simpleng biruan, upang magtawanan, simpleng kasinungalingan. Jokes are half meant, Ika nga nila. Katotohanang di buo. 

At dahil sa kahihiyan, na tila naaalis daw sa tagayan, tayo'y nagkakakwentuhan, mitsa ng panibagong katatawanan. Kahit ang napeperwisyo ay ang sariling katawan.

Sa panahon ng pagkasawi, naghahanap ng kinabibilangan, kaya nauso naman ang usukan. Cool o kung anoman, peer pressure ika, paminsan minsan lang, subalit lingid sa kaalaman, nakamamatay ng mahinang baga, ng sanggol, 2nd hand smoke ay may dalang mas matinding karamdaman, kaya't join na lang tayo, and let's have a good time. We defend ourselves from causing earlier deaths by saying YOLO, you only live once. Paano na? pati 3rd hand smoke mas mabagsik pa. Kung tatatayahin, parang covid19 lang yan, tumatagal ng tatlong araw sa plastic. Dosage makes poison ika nga. Lalasunin kita pero pauntiunti lang. 

Sige di rin naman mapipigil yan, atin na lang pagkakitaan, extra tax para sa mamamayan, kaya nga lang, mas lugi pa rin ang bansa sa ginagastos sa mga sakit na dulot nito. Siguro kung 100 isang stick mapalapit sa break even. Break even ourselves. 

Bagama't masakit, iya'y katotohanan, nguni't karamihan, di nagamit ang free will ng walang daya. Pumili noong di pa natin nalalaman hanggang sa maadik, di na maiwasan.

Pero ano nga bang ugat bakit namumunga iyan. Natural sa tao na humanap ng kaaliwan. Kaya naman gumagawa ng paraan. Subalit madalas diablo na pala ang pinaparaan. Ang mas nakararami, di nakakaalam. 

Kung di nalalaman ay pagaralan, hinanap ko, hinanap ng iba, pagibig lang pala ang sagot sa problema. Pero paano ba iibig? Isang bagay na di nalaman, aralin man, hanggang sa tayo mismo ang pinagukulan. 

Galit ang naisasagot sa galit, pangalan ay iniingatan, na nasisira naman ng kapalaluan. "Ang intensyon ko'y ito, bakit di maparating?" sapagka't ang puso di natin nalalaman, kaya't imbes mabuti'y pasaring nang dinggin, namamali ng encoding, malamang mali rin ng decoding.

Kaya't muli't muli, tinatanong na naman, paano nga bang umibig? walang nakakaalam, sa mga tao sa mundo, walang nakakaalam, subalit puso'y sumasagot sa puso, kaya't nararamdaman. At aming natuklasan, mayroong pinagbigyan, binigyan ng karunungan. Hahanapin na lang.

Nang matagpuan, unti unti, bagama't nalalaman, kasanayan sa mabuti'y di agad sagaran. Upang ang iba'y ating mapagmasdan, ang lakad nilang liko't tinutuwid na paghakbang. Kung wala tayong paltos, tayo'y mangbabatikos, huwag akalaing lang wala, pagkat meron meron meron. 

Anak tayong lahat ng iisang ina, na dahil mahina'y nadadaya't nabibigla. Maaaring maging anak din ng iisang Ama na Tagapagligtas ng lahat. Nang madaya ma't hindi, ikabubuting walang palya. 

Encoding our love to deliver the message, may secret key, sa puso ng sender. Alam ng Dios yun. At di natin malalaman marahil magpakailanman. Kaya't gaya ng technique sa number theory, let it pass and decode these messages with love. Galit man o hindi, tiisin lang, at ihiling sa Ama na makuha natin ang unawa.

Lahat tayo nangangalingan ng kaaliwan, ang Dios na nakakaalam, tinatawag tayo, upang sumamba sa Espiritu at buong katotohanan.

Binigyan ng Mangaaliw sa bautismo, na tumutulong sa ating kahinaan, at binibigyan tayo ng libangan.

May Anak na namamagitan, nagtatapyas ng ating kasalanan sa decoding ng ating mga ibig iparating sa Ama.

At may Dios na gumagawa sa puso nating lahat, upang maituwid ang ating mga paghakbang, at ang ating mga lakad ay mapagbigyan.

Immersion

Fall in Love, I'll never gonna fall in love. (Currie & Donegan, 1962)
(To relieve that pleasant ache)
(You're not sick, you're just in love)

I hear singing and there's no one there
(You don't need analyzing)
(It is not so surprising)
I smell blossoms and the trees are bare
(That you feel very strange but nice)
All day long I seem to walk on air
(Your heart goes pitter patter)
(I know just what's the matter)
I wonder why
(Because I've been there once or twice)
I wonder why

(Berlin, 1950)
Love is all we need. (Lennon & McCartney, 1967)
Send me the warmth of a secret smile
To show me you haven't forgot
That always and ever, now and forever
Little things mean a lot

(Lindeman & Stutz, 1954)
I think I'm fallin' fallin' in love with you. (Gibbs, 2004)
If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy

I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy
To be calm when you've found something going on
But take your time, think a lot
...
All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it
If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them they know not me

(Stevens, 1970)
When I fall in love it will be forever Or I'll never fall in love (Heyman, 1952)
Tale as old as time
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Then somebody bends
Unexpectedly

(Ashman, 1991)
I just watched an IG story saying,
Learn to be ok with not being
INVITED
INCLUDED OR
CONSIDERED 🤗 #2020
https://www.bible.com/bible/1/MAT.5.45-48.KJV
It reminded me of a kid, when our eyes met as we approach each other, who went passed me to invite another. I bowed my head and smiled as I remembered, Matthew 5:40+, like a parent proud of her child but still worried, I rode a kayak to get as near as possible to witness that kid's growth. Like a parent letting his child go into a field trip.


A moment so beautiful, though my mind thought I should be hurting, but my heart felt a wonderful feeling. The kid thought so, too: a long while after that, considerations were explained, but I just smiled. In addition, it seems I was considered at least. I would have preferred if I were not.

Be immersed in Love which Christ has taught us.

P.S. I prefer Omega DigiBible in Android, but as I wait for their underdevelopment webapp, I'm using Bible.com

Moments


Meetings can bring about moments that could last forever in our hearts, which can eventually be seen clearer than it has been, even in other perspectives on that day.
This moments can change us abruptly (turning points of life) or help us keep going on (not to be utterly cast down), with God's help, in the direction of His will. 
These are God given moments, that can be surely felt when we, ourselves as casts in these moments, have learned God's will which are written in the Bible.
Moments we experienced long ago can be brought back to our hearts by hearing God's words.

Further edifying our faith that everything that happens is for the good of the people of God, we act.
With enough wisdom we can deal with our tribulations, as we remember God's grace and mercy,

through the moments we were in: either we recall audibly or visually, restitution can happen.
The participants in these moments aside from ourselves are pulled closer towards our affection, too.
 
Though with the advancement of technologies, we can hear hints about their whereabouts and well beings: not knowing how good or bad the situation they are in could be worrisome; but, through prayers and supplications, with thanksgiving, even though they are far, they become closer to our hearts.

We greatly desire to see these people, being mindful of their tears, that we may be filled with joy.
However, hearing that they are sick, but knowing not how severe, could break our hearts apart but our savior Jesus Christ gives us peace:  someday, though here or not, we can meet again;


since surely one Day, we can all be together again in all eternity.

And let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good deeds, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day approaching. (Hebreo 10:24-25 NRSV)
  
Thanks be to God!
