Losing my edge....

I dunno. It seems I've forgotten how to write. I used to be a prolific writer. I used to be able to write long-winded essays about anything and everything from the top of my head in a snap...nowadays, it would seem I can't be bothered anymore. As a result, my blogging seems to have taken a downturn. These days everyone's so into Facebook , and Twitter , into status updates and micro-blogging...no one really blogs anymore, except for the precious few who still consider blogging as an art. In these times of ADHD, it seems no one has the patience to read full paragraphs of text anymore, instead preferring to read simple, quick and easy one-liners. It's a shame really. I love writing. And now it feels I'm losing my edge. I have tons of topics in my head I want to write about, but I can't seem to get myself to start. It's a waste though to just let these ideas rot away in some corner of my brain without giving them a chance to see the light of day...some of them ...

In hindsight....

Looking back...there are lot of things I wish I did...or did differently. Not that I totally regret my life mind you. It's just life is so short...in retrospect it's such a shame not to have lived it to its fullest. You only realize this when you reach a certain age. All of a sudden...you realize...that it's already too late. I'm not talking about really heavy stuff...though a few pop into my mind. This post is about the small things that wish we wish we did in the past, when there was still a lot of time, before we got sucked into the routine that would, for good or for bad, define our adult lives. Me, for example: I wish I learned how to dance; I wish I learned to play the guitar really, really good; I wish I learned how to play the piano; I wish I learned to eat right from the very start; I wish I learned how too cook; I wish I learned another language; I wish I saved more at the bank; I wish I was friendlier with people; Well...you get the idea. Looking on the brigh...

Kings and Queens

Kings and Queens 30 Seconds To Mars Oh... Into the night Desperate and broken The sound of a fight Father has spoken Oh... We were the kings and queens of promise We were the victims of ourselves Maybe the children of a lesser God Between Heaven and Hell Heaven and Hell Into your eyes Hopeless and taken We stole our new lives Through blindness In defense of our dreams In defense of our dreams We were the Kings and Queens of promise We were the victims of ourselves Maybe the Children of a lesser God Between Heaven and Hell Heaven and Hell The age of man is over A darkness comes at dawn These lessons that we've learned here Have only just begun We were the Kings and Queens of promise We were the victims of ourselves Maybe the Children of a Lesser God Between Heaven and Hell We are the Kings We are the Queens We are the Kings We are the Queens

Commonwealth Ave. lot for sale or lease....

Image
Just a repost. You never know who might notice. Anyone here interested in purchasing or leasing a plot of commercial land located along Commonwealth Ave. in Quezon City? It's my father's property, and it has a lot area of 2,844 sqm., with a number of residential improvements. The frontage is a bit on the small side, at 14 m., but it directly faces Commonwealth Ave. The lot has been on the market for quite a while, but since the real estate market has been down for some time now...well you know how it is. Just in case you're interested, or know someone who is, please feel free to leave a comment or to email me at ronallandottk@yahoo.com . To cut the hassle, would prefer to deal with direct buyers only. Sometimes it can be quite hard dealing with a multitude of brokers and middlemen...you know how that is too. :-) You can also call 9315575 if you have any inquiries. Siteplan of the property. Aerial view. The road at the top of the photo is Commonwealth Avenue. Here's a ti...

Prayer....

Lord, let this feast of my birth be a reminder to me of all the gifts and blessings I have received from You this day and all the days of my life. On my day of celebration, I thank you for my life and all of my blessings and ask for another year filled with Your presence in my life that I may continue to grow in your love. Gracious God, I thank You for enabling me to celebrate my birthday. Lord You have been good to me all these years and I thank You for all the blessings I have recieved but especially for life itself. Creator God, I do not know what lies ahead for me this year. Yet I know that You are holding my future in Your hand. Let my ways be pleasing to you. As You have promised, be with me, Lord. Grid me with Your strength and grace so that I can live for Your light. Enable me to draw closer to You that I may walk in your peace and be the creative and loving person that you intend for me to be. I ask this and all things in the sure and certain knowledge of your love for me and ...

Prayer

Father, I ask You to bless my friends, relatives and those that I care deeply for, who are reading this right now. Show them a new revelation of Your love and power. Holy Spirit, I ask You to minister to their spirit at this very moment. Where there is pain, give them Your peace and mercy.. Where there is self-doubt, release a renewed confidence through Your grace.. Where there is need, I ask You to fulfill their needs. Bless their homes, families, finances, their goings and their comings. Amen.

LG GX500

Bought my first new phone in three years a week ago, something to replace my aging N95 8GB . To be honest, it's a step down in features from the N95 (no 3G or HSDPA, no video calling, 3.2 megapixel camera vs the N95's 5 megapixels, no digital zoom, no GPS, no headphone jack) but it has Wi-Fi connectivity (just like the N95), a touchscreen interface (takes some getting used to), and more importantly, it's a dual-sim phone, a feature I've been interested in for quite a while now. It's also my first LG phone, having had nothing but Nokias for my main phones for more than a decade. LG isn't a pushover though, as far as mobile phone manufacturers are concerned...it's currently number 3 in the world . Not really in the mood to write a full review right now, so here's something from Daily Digitals : LG GX500 Dual SIM Mobile Phone LG Electronics has announced a new mobile phone called LG GX500 . The thickness of LG GX500 is 13 mm packs a 3-inch touch screen w...
