Only with this dyosa
In solidarity with the Task Force Mapalad farmers on hunger strike early this year, my boss and some of my officemates went to DAR and brought a couple of jugs of water.
I was looking at the pictures of a slain farmer-leader posted within the makeshift tent when I felt someone's eyes on me.
I turned around and there she was, my new catastrophe.
I had no chance of running...
No hope of escape...
It was meant to be...
A Catastrophe

Shimmering Splendid
The following are quotes from the movie Stardust ...
(Based on Neil Gaiman's book ,which I read while having my monthly dose of foot spa at a friend's beauty salon back when the world was a lot more glittery) TOO MUCH INFORMATION!
Those in red are the products of the repressed scriptwriter in me
What do stars do best?
GLOW
But... No star can shine with a broken heart
And finally, No MAN can live forever without the heart of a star
Therefore, only a WOMAN can live forever.
Bwehehe....
Why do I not prefer younger women?

The Ultimate Answer
When people ask me questions like these:
1) Why are you working for an NGO?
2) Why fight for what is right, we believe in what you say anyway, isn't that enough?
3) Why stay in that hell of a place called law school?
4) Why, why, why?
I don't actually burst into this song, I try to deliver the lines as flatly as possible [there's really no difference, come to think of;)] This is my standard answer:
If I could tell the world just one thing
It would be that we're all ok
And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful and useless in times like these
I won't be made useless I won't be idled with despair
I'll gather myself around my faith for light does the darkness most fear
My hands are small, I know, but they're not yours, they are my own but they're not yours, they are my own and I am never broken
Poverty stole your golden shoes
but it didn't steal your laughter
And heartache came to visit me but i knew it wasn't ever after
We will fight, not out of spite for someone must stand up for what's right
'cause where there's a man who has no voice there ours shall go singing
In the end only kindness matters In the end only kindness matters
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray I will get down on my knees, and I will pray I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
We are God's eyes
God's hands
God's mind
We are God's eyes
God's hands
God's heart
We are God's eyes
We are God's hands
We are God's eyes
