HINDI IKAW by Jerome Lois Esguerra

Hindi baril mo ang makapagliligtas sa akin

Posas mong tangan sa'yo mo rapat gamitin

Naturingang bantay kapayapaan ngunit naging alagad ng dilim

Kapag kayo na ang kriminal, sino nga ba ang nararapat tawagin?

Hindi presensya mo ang aking kaligtasan

Madalas nga'y natatakot ako kapag ikaw ay nariyan

May kakikilala pa nga akong walang kasalanan ngunit binalitang nanlaban

Tanong ko'y paano manlalaban ang walang kalaban-laban?

Hindi uniporme mo ang dapat tingalain

Dahil unang-una ay alam mo rapat kung paano 'yan suotin

Hindi iyan prebilehiyo na ipagmamalaki matapos abusuhin

May responsibilad ka sa bayang nagbibigay sa iyo ng makakain

Uulitin ko, hindi baril mo ang makapagliligtas sa akin

Lalo na't hindi mo alam kung paano at para saan ba dapat gamitin

Hindi presensya mo ang aking kaligtasan

Lalo na't hindi mo nalalaman kung sino ba ang nararapat protektahan

Hindi uniporme mo ang nararapat tingalain

Lalo na't isang kunwaring inosenteng pagyuko lang din ang iyong gagawin matapos kang may patayin

Nagsalita ako kahit hindi ako ang nakaranas

Hindi ito pakikisawsaw, isa itong liham kung sakaling hindi na rin ako abutin pa ng bukas

May mas malalang sakit ang bansa kaysa kumakalat na sakit na walang lunas

Kung hindi ito magagamot, kawawa ka naman Pilipinas.

Glow of the 🧡

How many times we said fake goodbyes but those persons were just more present in our hearts and souls than ever? Didn't we pretend we let go of people and things, yet in our deepness we knew we actually never did? And on the other hand, for how many times we secretly knew our feelings changed towards someone yet we keep doing our best to pretend it didn't, maybe because they are so dear, maybe because of our glorious past but in our deepness we know it's no longer the same, for how many times we let go of things we loved but we keep acting that they are still our choices. And the questions remain does all this mean forever? Will we fall again for what departed us? Will we let go of what enslaved us for so long? Will we say a true goodbye and an honest hello?

Love Watching You 💝

Who can resist a sleeping baby? As our children get older, and we get older the joy we get from watching them sleep is something that doesn’t change. Whether your child is an infant or a teenager, there is great comfort to be found in watching them sleep. No matter what their age, they will always be our babies. There are few things as gratifying and heart-warming as watching your child sleeping peacefully, lost in their own little world of dreams, with no cares or worries. As they sleep safely in a cocoon of warmth and love. Watching our children sleep is one of the greatest rewards of motherhood, and a sign of a job well done. 💝

Who are the real Robbers? 🍂

During a robbery in America, the bank robber shouted to everyone in the bank: "Don't move. The money belongs to the State. Your life belongs to you." Everyone in the bank laid down quietly. This is called the "Mind Changing Concept." Changing the conventional way of thinking. When the bank robbers returned home, the younger robber (MBA-trained) told the older robber (who has only completed Year 6 in primary school): "Big brother, let's count how much we got." The older robber rebutted and said: "You are very stupid. There is so much money it will take a long time to count. Tonight, the TV news will tell us how much we robbed from the bank." This is called "Experience.” Nowadays, the experience is more important than paper qualifications! After the robbers had left, the bank manager told the bank supervisor to call the police quickly. But the supervisor said to him: "Wait! Let us take out $10 million from the bank for ourselves a...
