Just for Fun

An atheist was walking through the woods.
"What majestic trees"!
"What powerful rivers"!
"What beautiful animals"!
He said to himself.
As he was walking alongside the river,
he heard a rustling in the bushes behind him.
He turned to look. He saw a 7-foot grizzly bear charge towards him.
.He ran as fast as he could up the path. He looked over his shoulder & saw that the bear was closing in on him. He looked over his shoulder again, & the bear was even closer. He tripped & fell on the ground. He rolled over to pick himself up but saw that the bear was right on top of him, reaching for him with his left paw & raising his right paw to strike him.


At that instant the Atheist cried out, "Oh my God!" Time stopped. The bear froze.The forest was silent. As a bright light shone upon the man, a voice came out of the sky. "You deny my existence for all these years, teach others I don't exist and even credit creation to cosmic accident. "Do you expect me to help you out of this predicament? Am I to count you as a believer"?

The atheist looked directly into the light, "It would be hypocritical of me to suddenly ask you to treat me as a Christian now, but perhaps you could make the bear a Christian"?"Very w ell," said the voice. The light went out. The sounds of the forest resumed. And the bear dropped his right paw, brought both paws together, bowed his head & spoke:

"Lord bless this food, which I am about to receive from thy bounty through Christ our Lord, Amen."

How To Stay Young!

We all need to read this one over and over until it becomes part of who we are!
.


HOW TO STAY YOUNG
.
1. Try everything twice. On Madams tombstone (of Whelan's and Madam) she said she wanted this epitaph: Tried everything twice...loved it both times!
.
2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down. (Keep this in mind if you are one of those grouches.)
3. Keep learning: Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain get idle. "An idle mind is the devil's workshop." And the devil's name is Alzheimer's!
.
4. Enjoy the simple things.
5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath. And if you have a friend who makes you laugh, spend lots and lots of time with HIM/HER.
6. The tears happen: Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person who is with us our entire life, is ourselves. LIVE while you are alive.

How To Stay...

7. Surround yourself with what you love: Whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.


8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it. If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help , and if there is no help available, learn to live with what you have!!
.
9. Don't take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county, to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is.


10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.

11. Forgive now those who made you cry. You might not get a second time.
.
And if you don't send this to at least 4 people - who cares? But do share this with someone .
Lost time can never be found!

An iba na nagpledge diri nakahabol magpadara san ambag nira kay may iba na priority na pangangaipo sa pamilya nira, pero maambag sira sa masunod kay ipadagos ta ini na proyekto every year.

An total amount na nasolicit ko bale P10,600.00. Ang mga donors mao sira: Nerio Garalde, Mario Gallor, Joey Frades, Eden, Lope Galindes nan Adelmo Gonzales. Si Nerio kay financially blessed kay seaman, medyo dako na halaga an hinatag. Aram ko na kun naipaaram ko an proyekto sa kadaghanan, mas dako an naging pundo ta.

An Project

If you think education is expensive, try ignorance. - Derek Bok

I think Eden will not have time to write about the project she initiated due to her very hectic schedule. So, I took the freedom to write about it.
.
During the reunion habang nag-oorogma may padiyodiyo na kurumustahan san mga buhaybuhay... mga concerns sa pamilya... dini nahatagan sin lugar an iba ta na mga kabatch na nasa bulusan na magpaluwas san kanira mga agrangay. Sabi ko ngani diri intero saato naging mayad an kamutangan sa buhay. Sayo na nag luwas na concern mao an pagpaadal san kanira mga kabataan. Nagkapira an diri kaya magpaadal maski sa Laboy man lang kay diri talaga kaya san income. Kadaghanan sini nasa High School na. After that day naimod ni Eden an pangangaipuhan sin paghatag sin danon kaya an hinimo niya intext an iba ta na ka-batch na nano daw kun puwede kita magdanon sa abot san makakaya ta sa mga nangangaipuhan. Very positive man an response san mga nakaaram. Nagkapira na nga an naghatag both material and financial support. Others have expressed their intention and willingness to help. Sa niyan malin nasa 13 an beneficiaries, sayo an nasa elementary and the rest nasa highschool. Kan Eden inpapadara an mga financial contributions nan si Helen Furo-Mendizabal man an naglalalam sa Bulusan san nitty-gritty of this project. One time nga nag-text saako si Padi Joey na makadto siya kan Ester Frago kay may mga material na danon na ipadara sa Bulusan. Eden has the details of the contributions nan kun sira sino an mga beneficiaries.
.
An padiyodiyo na danon kun pagbiriyuon dakodako an mahihimuan (accdg. to Agnes). An edukasyon san kanira mga kabataan an sayo sa kun diri mao an pinakamayad na danon na maihahatag ta sa mga nangangaipuhan ta na mga ka-batch. Importantehon an edukasyon para sa future san mga kabataan. Although direct beneficiaries an mga kabataan pero indirectly danon man ini sa ato bungto in the long run.

Bayabay!!!

it is in giving that we receive...

You can witness in the pictures the happiness and joy that was shared during the reunion. Almost fifty persons joined the parade and afterwards the simple lunch at Baluarte. Then came the drinking... singing... and dancing spree. A very memorable experience indeed! Recalling the past... renewing friendship... capturing the youth that we almost disregard in our new found lives and concerns. However, amidst this exhilarating event was life's reality that when we go back to our own homes and families we will find out that what happened was just a breather.. a respite from our daily lives. In our younger days this kind of event was a reason enough to look forward to such another event in the future... and it ends there.... But, hey, that was in our younger days. Now we are all in our forties (some may claim to be younger)... he he he. We view life now a little bit differently. Maybe it was during the prayer before meals that was a few seconds longer than the meal itself that God decided to put some spice on the reunion. By the way, it was Eden who led the prayer which is a story in itself. Many wondered if Eden is really married or a nun. ( I was wondering too!)


Anyway, since it was Eden who led that prayer. It was to her that God sprinkled that "spice of inspiration". Amidst the laughter, the dancing and the singing were life stories. Well, Eden ( I think she was a nun in her past life if you believe in reincarnation) listened a little bit seriously to these. Although as you can see in the pictures she really danced and went to the "baraylehan" again during the night. Eden saw the reality then that not all of us have become successful in life. Thus, it gave birth to a realization that the reunion should be a new beginning and should not simply end that day. Eden started a small project that will give a lasting gift to our batchmates who have less in life. Many have become enthusiastic about it and, in fact, some have started to send in their support. Well, this is some sort of an advertisement for the PROJECT. I will not tell those stories nor the details of the project. I will just let Eden tell you everything.

TOP 10 BIGGEST BRAIN DAMAGING HABITS

1. No Breakfast - People who do not take breakfast are going to have a lower blood sugar level. This leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.

2. Overeating - It causes hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power.

3. Smoking - It causes multiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer disease.

4. High Sugar consumption - Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients causing malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.

5. Air Pollution - The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain efficiency.

6. Sleep Deprivation - Sleep allows our brain to rest. Long term deprivation from sleep will accelerate the death of brain cells.

7. Head covered while sleeping - Sleeping with the head covered, increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and decrease concentration of oxygen that may lead to brain damaging effects.

8. Working your brain during illness - Working hard or studying with sickness may lead to a decrease in effectiveness of the brain as well as damage the brain.

9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts - Thinking is the best way to train our brain, lacking in brain stimulation thoughts may cause brain shrinkage.

10. Talking Rarely - Intellectual conversations will promote the efficiency of the brain. The main causes of liver damage are:

1. Sleeping too late and waking up too late are main cause.
2. Not urinating in the morning.
3. Too much eating.
4. Skipping breakfast.
5. Consuming too much medication.
6. Consuming too much preservatives, additives, food coloring, and artificial sweetener.
7. Consuming unhealthy cooking oil. As much as possible reduce cooking oil use when frying, which includes even the best cooking oils like olive oil. Do not consume fried foods when you are tired, except if the body is very fit.
8. Consuming raw (overly done) foods also add to the burden of liver. Veggies should be eaten raw or cooked 3-5 parts. Fried veggies should be finished in one sitting, do not store. We should prevent this without necessarily spending more. We just have to adopt a good daily lifestyle and eating habits. Maintaining good eating habits and time condition are very important for our bodies to absorb and get rid of unnecessary chemicals according to "schedule." Because: Evening at 9 - 11pm: is the time for eliminating unnecessary/toxic chemicals (detoxification) from the antibody system (lymph nodes) . This time duration should be spent by relaxing or listening to music. If during this time a housewife is still in an unrelaxed state such as washing the dishes or monitoring children doing their homework, this will have a negative impact on health. Evening at 11pm - 1am: is the detoxification process in the liver, and ideally should be done in a deep sleep state. Early morning 1 - 3am: detoxification process in the gall, also ideally done in a deep sleep state. Early morning 3 - 5am: detoxification in the lungs. Therefore there will sometimes be a severe cough for cough sufferers during this time. Since the detoxification process had reached the respiratory tract, there is no need to take cough medicine so as not to interfere with toxin removal process. Morning 5 - 7am: detoxification in the colon, you should empty your bowel. Morning 7 - 9am: absorption of nutrients in the small intestine, you should be having breakfast at this time. Breakfast should be earlier, before 6:30am, for those who are sick. Breakfast before 7:30am is very beneficial to those wanting to stay fit. Those who always skip breakfast, they should change their habits, and it is still better to eat breakfast late until 9 - 10am rather
than no meal at all. Sleeping so late and waking up too late will disrupt the process of removing
unnecessary chemicals. Aside from that, midnight to 4:00 am is the time when the bone marrow produces blood. Therefore, have a good sleep and don't sleep late. Subject: Fw: the CAUSE of
BANGUNGOT....must read The reported cause of actor Rico Yan's death is nightmare or bangungot. Medical investigators in China, Japan and several Asian countries who performed autopsies on persons who died from "acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis" found out that the majority of them had eaten NOODLES as their supper. This was a startling finding. However, it wasn't the noodles that caused nightmares but dehydration. Imbibing even with a few drinks of alcohol or just eating noodles immediately before bedtime compound this on an empty stomach will trigger an electrolyte imbalance and other factors that causes a person to dehydrate or lose water. It is therefore advisable for a person to take several glasses of water before bedtime if he had a few or several alcoholic drinks. Avoid eating noodles before bedtime, but if you can not avoid it, allow at least two hours for the body to digest the noodles before hitting the sack and drink plenty of water. The most important thing is, never go thirsty when going to bed and be sure you have plenty of water during your 8-hour rest...
