I need to talk with you again,
Why did you go away?
All our time together still feels like yesterday
I never thought I’d see
A single day without you,
The things we take for granted,
We can sometimes lose

And if I promise not to feel this pain,
Will I see you again?
Will I see you again?

‘Cause time will pass me by,
Maybe I’ll never learn to smile,
But I know I’ll make it through,
If you wait for me…
And all the tears I cry,
No matter how I try,
They’ll never bring you home to me
Won’t you wait for me in heaven?

Do you remember how it was?
When we never seemed to care,
The days went by so quickly,
‘Cause I thought you’d always be there…
And it’s hard to let you go,
Though I know that I must try,
I feel like I’ve been cheated,
‘Cause we never said goodbye…

And if I promise not to feel this pain,
Will I see you again?
Will I see you again?

‘Cause time will pass me by,
Maybe I’ll never learn to smile,
But I know I’ll make it through,
If you wait for me…
And all the tears I cry,
No matter how I try,
They’ll never bring you home to me
Won’t you wait for me in heaven?

‘Cause I miss you so, and I need to know…
Will you wait for me?

‘Cause time will pass me by,
Maybe I’ll never learn to smile,
But I know I’ll make it through,
If you wait for me…
And all the tears I cry,
No matter how I try,
They’ll never bring you home to me
Won’t you wait for me in heaven?

And time will pass me by,
Maybe I’ll never learn to smile,
But I know I’ll make it through
If you wait for me…

My mom passed away ten years ago. But no matter how much time has already gone by, loneliness still takes the better of me. I still miss her so much.

All the memories are still clearly etched here in my heart. I still remember her every move, her smiles, her tiger looks when she was angry. Those things are still vividly remembered. Maybe when you really love and treasure the person, nothing can separate you from all the memories.

I miss her, I miss her, I miss her.

She taught me a lot. Her passing away trained me to be mature in handling matters about life. It also made me realize the importance of insurance marketing. We did not pay much attention about it when she was sick. We were so in denial.

I wish she were here to teach me how to be the best mother for my kids… the way that she was to me. But suffice it to say that the inspiration she has given me motivates me to be the best that I can be. I wish she were here to give me a simple pat on my shoulder and tell me that I am doing just well. I wish she were here to take care of, play with and kiss her grandkids.

Do the homemakers have the right to be tired?

Certainly!

But because of the never-ending responsibilities and the lengthy to-do list, more often than not, I do not give in to this feeling of lethargy and sluggishness. At some point, resting has become a waste of time. But even so, I still recognize that my body needs to revitalize after a hard day’s work.

It makes me feel so accomplished when my kids and hubby appreciate what I do for them. Of course, my kids are still very young that they still are not aware of the things I do for them. But I feel delighted and charmed for the simple acts of appreciation like eating what I cooked for them and showing interest to the activities I prepared. I like it when they enjoy what we do together.

Then again, things are not always in rhyme with your desires. Some things will just go out of your control, and before you know it, everything’s messed up. Stuff like these brings me down. It dumps my spirit to strive harder.

But a homemaker shall never allow these negativities take the better of her. Or else, she can never make her HOUSE a HOME.

Oftentimes, we allow ourselves to be submerged in feelings of depression, loneliness and dejection. how many times have we felt that all things tend to fall apart and that happiness seems to be a remote possibility? We worry most of the time. Unknowingly, we surrender ourselves to all the negativities we could possibly engage ourselves in.

We haven’t learned to APPRECIATE.

And what makes appreciation next to impossible???? Many things. Past hurts, personal tight spots, global crises, even other people’s predicaments. We absorb all these things that is probably why we look right through some things worthy of our sheer indebtedness.

When things have become so mundane and nothing exciting and out of the ordinary happens, boredom inhibits us to thank the Creator for the predictability that gives us some kind of assurance that life is not worthless after all.

There are so many things to thank for. I believe the list is as boundless as the love our Father has for each and everyone of us.

Sun may set and darkness may loom around us, but it’s guaranteed that the sun will shine again the
next day and its radiance will greet us once again. Rain may heavily pour, but after a while, Mr. Sun will beam once more. Problems may come, tears may fall, but after some time, we’ll hit upon the resolution and get a hold of our happiness and peace of mind.

Everyone is gifted with a lot of people who, beyond doubt, love, cherish and sincerely wish for our happiness. But unluckily, many times we have taken them for granted and have failed to notice all the things they do for us.

Our body is said to have the ability to heal itself. Despite all the trauma it has gone through, be it physical or in any other aspect, it has the knack to bounce back to its usual state. But this is only possible if we will help our bodies to make this happen.

These, among many others, are the reasons why we should extend our gratitude to The One Supreme Being who provided us more than we could ever ask for. He is the fountain of life and strength. Without Him, we’re nothing.

Take the conscious effort to relish all the simple things around us. Let’s take pleasure in each and every grace showered upon us. Our life is a blessing, we have to use it well. And for us to never go wrong, we have to offer all our actions and dealings to our Great Provider.

And one way of giving back all the glory, we should make it an everyday endeavor to be a blessing to everyone… not just to the people dear to us, but even to those people we meet barely through chance encounters.

Homemaking Pleasure

“Vanity is my favourite sin.”

This seems to be my niece’s motto in life. She will do all things and take all risks in the sake of beauty and vanity. I keep on reminding her that too much vanity can cause her deep trouble and that there are far more important things in life to keep her focus on than her physical attributes.

I don’t think she’s listening. 

I am sort of worried about her severe adult acne, actually. She keeps on trying different products promising positive results, but so far none of them really works. Her doctor told her acne may be caused by some hormonal imbalance, and she was advised to take some contraceptive pills. But still, nothing happened.

I bought her some organic soaps which might be of help. She has yet to see the results. She told me that there was a slight improvement since she noticed that her pimples are slowly drying up fast. Well, I just hope that it would work for her. I hate how she wasted too much money from buying those expensive beauty products which she thinks will help her resolve her long-time dilemma.

I am dead serious about learning how to make real money online.

Here in the Philippines, most people do not have an idea yet that it is possible to earn a living using the internet. In fact, when people ask me what I do, especially my old friends and classmates, I get a lot of blank stares and raised eyebrows when I tell them that I am a stay-at-home mom who thrives to make money in the worldwide web. It actually came to the point when I got tired of explaining what I do.

So how do I earn money here? Through my blogs. Lots of visits or traffic, as referred to here in the cyber world, more income. One of the things I do to boost my traffic is submitting my URL to http://www.freewebdirectories.org. It is one proven method for increasing your traffic and page rank as well.

I am currently trying my best to learn a lot. I am exploring other online income-generating methods which I can make use of aside from blogging. And now I feel overwhelmed. The hardest thing to do right now is to put them all together and make a system that will work. I hope things will get clearer in time.

The friend I was previously talking about is already starting to have those pregnancy worries. And since she finds it hard to share them with her husband, she runs to me for comfort.

Stretchmarks. There are a lot of products available in the market promising to prevent the occurrence of stretchies. Though I haven’t tried any of them, I have heard a lot of good reviews about certain products and I told her to just browse in some forums to get some valuable ideas.

Fats. Who does not get scared of post-pregnancy fats? I thought it will take me a lifetime to go back to my pre-pregnancy form, but thanks to the slimming pills recommended by my sister-in-law. Now, I am getting so close to my target.

These are just some of the points she raised so far. I am still expecting to get a lot from this very vain friend of mine.

But despite all these, I am glad to see her blooming.

I could not help but express my excitement about my friend’s pregnancy! After so many years of waiting, she is finally conceiving.

When we had the chance to talk last night, she asked for some pieces of advice since I have already gone through the whole process of pregnancy twice. Well, nothing much. I just told her to really take care of herself. Never stress out. Visit her OB regularly. Be healthy. Drink her milk and take her prenatal vitamins.

Look at the brighter side of things.

When you are pregnant, you become really sensitive even with the most trivial matters here on earth. You obsess about so many things that you should not really be bothered about. People blame it on the hormones. For me, I think it’s mother’s instinct that you want things to be perfect. So when your baby comes out, you can provide him/her the best world you can offer.

My friend will go through a lot of transformations, and though it may be hard to adjust to most of them, it’s still necessary to enjoy every step of the way.

For sure, people from the Philippines know what I am talking about..

Yes, I am referring to pirated DVD’s Pinoys are fond of buying.

I heard from the news that the pirated copies of Pacquiao-Clottey match were not really patronized as much as the other Pacquiao’s fights. Why? The vendors answered that it was mainly due to the ‘lame’ event that transpired in the said match.

The Optical Media Board expressed their positive view regarding this by saying that the Filipinos are gradually realizing the consequences of patronizing pirated DVD copies. They might even think that this is all signs of the effectiveness of their campaigns. But come to think of it… Should they really get the credits? Personally, I do not think so.

Of course, Pacquiao once again brought glory to our country, and he deserves all the praises. But sadly, most of us felt a little disappointed with the turnout of the match. Clottey claimed he did not feel Manny’s power. Yeah, I can agree with that. Clottey is the most defensive boxer I have ever seen, and Pacquiao did not have the opportunity to knock him down. This very thing turned the Pinoys off from watching the fight again in those pirated forms.

Does the OMB have the right to celebrate?

None at all.

Almost two weeks ago, I attended this seminar held in Crowne Plaza Galleria in Ortigas. I was really glad that I made that decision of investing my hard-earned money. I was really motivated to follow their footsteps though I know that it would take a lot of time, effort and learning on my part to achieve even just half of their success. But if they were able to do it, why can’t I?

One speaker talked about the benefits of direct mail marketing. He said that at some points, it is far better than having a website of your own because you directly ‘talk’ to your customers. Point taken. But the harder thing is building your list. Right now, that’s what I am focusing on.
