The Lange Foundation – Jillian Lange

 

The Lange Foundation featured on Oprah is a foundation dedicated to adopting animals/pets that no longer have their homes. Therefore, stopping or minimizing pet killings, those are on deathrow on most shelters that don’t have space.

 

It would be nice if we have something like this in the Philippines. Anyways, here is the video on Oprah.

When Love Waits

May 15, 2008

For Rosemien Gongob

Everyday and every night, I long for your presence near. Waking up everyday, hoping in seeing your smile. Day by day, in my every wake, and when I look and you are not there, I just close my eyes and fold my neck, and imagine that you’re right there beside me. Making me feel I am attached to you. I may look as though I am a strong man, but the thing that’s true is I am getting weaker everyday as I waited for your return.

The Power Of Letting Go

May 7, 2008

Letting go of someone for everyone seems to be the hardest thing to do, especially if that person already made a mark in your life. Somebody special to you and was there all thru the years, months, or days in your life. We always remember the things that had happened, the experiences you’ve been thru, it could be that saddest or the happiest moments. You can always recall that there was this moment in your life that nothing else matters in this world and that within this world the only significant thing that exists is between you and the person you love. To lose someone special gives pain that you wont know when its end. And every time you hear a hymn of a love song, makes you remember and even cry.

Miniscule Detail: It still helps

May 2, 2008

After the very much awaited wedding of Diana Princess of Whales and His Royal Highness Prince Charles, they went over to cruise for their honeymoon.

The honeymoon aboard the Britannia was horrible as Prince Charles told a friend, “That first night was special. It was special enough, of course. But she really was painfully naive.” This shows that P. Charles was not really that attached to his mother because he wants a woman to be caring, nurturing, not to mention experienced. That is all filled by Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cornwall (Camilla Parker Bowles).

Back to the cruise. Both were very different, Diana would be sociable, chattering with the cooks and the other personnel. While, Charles would would just sit like a hermit and read Laurens Van der Post’s books. This also shows that their age gap was not 12, but was 40.

At these times, the Prince cannot function well without a phone call to Camilla.

When they reached Egypt, The couple joined Anwar Sadat, president of Egypt and his wife, Jihan, for dinner. Diana noticed Charles’ gold cuff links that are entwined C’s for Charles and Camilla on his crispy ironed cuffs. This event was called Affair of the Cuff Links.

The Prince was not insensitive, he was just absent-minded. It was known that the Prince was always pampered by servants to the point even his toothbrush already had toothpaste before he could even be inside the bedroom. It’s possible that Stephen Barry - Camilla’s ‘friend’ - had inserted the cuff links when the Prince was off to dinner and the Prince just absent-mindedly put it on. Perhaps Diana suspected of this, because by mid-October, the frost was on their relations was such that Barry had handed in his resignation.

So does that mean Chanel reminds her of that?

The worst of it was, she never had his love in the first place.

RockStardom

April 24, 2008

I was seven.

Zombie by The Cranberries was the first song I ever learned to play with my kuyas’ guitar. The song’s chords were Em-C-G-F# cycles but I also learned its lead and bass parts. My sister taught me the mellow side of music and I grew up watching her play ballads from our piano. I miss the days when we play piano duets like Blue Moon or Chopsticks. I am so forever grateful for my sibs’ efforts. They have taught and inspired me well.

I was a fan of my brothers’ garage band. I can’t remember their band’s name but I sure enjoyed watching them practice at our apartment in Paranaque during weekends. Early 90’s was the glory days of the Metal and Grunge genres. Our very high tech (back then) sounds sytem almost always blare out tunes from bands like Metallica, Nirvana and Pearl Jam. We even got reported to the Baranggay by our neighbor for the noise.

Last part of a series: A doubtful heart

April 17, 2008

So, I did not snap my head out of my neck because it isn’t really the wisest thing to do given the circumstances, but there was huge relief and, of course, guilt.

I felt relieved because it felt good to finally see that I wasn’t actually facing a blank wall after all. You know, there really is a huge difference between being blind when you aren’t really blind and being truly blind and finally being able to see. In my case, I was the former.

Second of a series: A doubtful heart

April 14, 2008

It took me a while to realize that what is “small and petty” in my eye is “big and bold” in the eye of the Lord. When I thought I was simply being a brat, stomping my feet and insisting on “logic and reason”, I was actually committing the one sin that God hated the most – idolatry.

Last night, while Warren and I realized upon assessment that we are just like any other couple who fight, he mentioned the importance of keeping Christ in the center of our marriage as our only hope, he explained to me that this is precisely the reason why we need to continue growing spiritually as Christians. Instead of me submitting to my husband at that moment and agreeing with what he said, I turned away and made my own “little scene”…

Filthy Rags to God’s Grace

April 12, 2008

The other night, Warren was deeply immersed with reading the book of Luke (which he always does) when he suddenly bobbed his head from behind his Bible to share with me what he understood from the verse.
“To me, this means we as Christians are representatives of Christ, so wherever we go, whoever it is we are talking to, we should always remember that we are there to represent Christ, then there is really no need to tell them, “hey, I’d like to invite you to our church…”, instead, we can go right ahead and evangelize from there…”
I have forgotten what part in the book of Luke that is, but I remember coming by his side and reading it to see how I would understand what is written. I agree with my husband.
The following morning, we were walking around the community for morning exercise when he expressed his fear of not being able to share more openly with other people, of not being able to evangelize and of not being a zealous soldier of God.
I have always known my husband to be an introvert, in fact when we first met; I repeatedly had to ask him what was bothering him because there were moments during that day when he would just cave in, like something would wrap around him that not even I could get through. He would be staring from afar and be silent for minutes on end.

Hindi Maka-Tiis

April 11, 2008

The events that took place last week was a slap in the face, a blinking neon sign, a bold protest by God and the people close to my heart that it’s time to change.

A break up
A family fight
Life endangerment
Sudden outbursts of unnecessary rage

I don’t deserve this. Nobody does, except if he is the devil himself. Heck, the bastard deserves more than that. Thank God, it’s all over now, and I hope it would stay this way. I was skeptic about equilibrium, the yin and yang, whatever you call the “force” that maintains this universe to have a sense of balance or simply just make sense. Everything used to be crazy, and today it isn’t anymore. Well now, I’m a believer. It is possible.

Best profession yet!

April 7, 2008

I must admit, I am immensely enjoying life as a wife and as a homemaker.

There was a time in my life when I thought I wasn’t cut out for this kind of life, homemaking sounded a little too boring, too insignificant, too unimportant, too small, too ordinary, too outdated… I once felt, and decided that it wasn’t me.

I thought managing a career is a lot more fun, a lot more challenging, a lot more significant and I decided that being a career woman is what today’s empowered woman should be… In power suits, in high heeled patent leather shoes, carrying monogrammed handbags, driving their own expensive car, heading conferences, living fast-paced lives, like a full twenty four hours isn’t enough to get things done…Glamorous! Yeah, the glamour is all too enticing…

Wiwannastarhavinahbeybeeh!

March 26, 2008

After the wedding, the honeymoon, the weekend dates and being constantly a twosome, Warren and I finally reached that point where we are already thinking about getting pregnant. Uh-huh, you read it right. PREGNANT. Wiwannastarhavinahbeybeeh! (spoken in a childlike manner for emphasis) Warren is not oblivious to the fact that I might not be able to give him a child. You see, I was with a man for eight years and not once did I get pregnant, so before our wedding I told Warren about the possibility of my being infertile. He would always display a very positive attitude towards this and there were times I would wish for myself to feel the same way.
