My counsins Pinky, Vina and relatives posed during their visits at Montana, USA. They were the former resident of Barangay Mandulog, Iligan City, Philippines. During our childhood life, we played together at Sittio Tubaran then we went on swimming at Mandulog River. I know my cousins will missed our experiences in Mandulog.

Last Saturday

Surprise Visit

I recieved text messages from my uncle, Datu Dimasangkay informing me to proceed at IJBT-North Bound terminal to accompany our friend coming from Manila looking for business opportunity in our beloved city of waterfalls. I told my uncle that I have to seek prior clearance from my boss before going there. I was late for a couple of minutes due to unavoidable circumstances. I apologized to our visitor for being late. My uncle introduced me to his friend from Manila and we've discussed several business plans and we ended our meeting with a positive response hoping to help our less fortunate hinterland brethren.

Think Good, Talk Good and Feel Good

I thank God for giving me this wonderful opportunity to write the simplest style of writing. My co-employee and friend told me to write anything that I wish to express from the most silliest things to wonderful things. Then, a topic "Think Good, Talk Good and Feel Good" comes out of my mind. I know that every individual person has different instinct and perceptions in life but for me the first thing that I should write would be for the Good. As I meditate inside our little room I discovered that there were many awful experiences which sometimes reminds me to confess to God for His divine forgiveness. I realized that I am a sinner and needs repentance. Just this morning, I started to evaluate myself and tried to discover something that is useful in my daily life and that is THINK GOOD, TALK GOOD AND FEEL GOOD!
