In our present generation a lot of new languages influenced Philippines and the way how they communicate in everyday living.

There are a lot of Filipino words that nowadays not so used anymore. We should treasure our own language and use it everyday. Filipino words are deep sometimes and fun to learn. Once Jose Rizal said “Ang hindi marunong magmahal sa sariling wika ay higit pa sa hayop at malansang isda”.

Here is my Youtube vlog about this topic also https://youtu.be/7frqeE83sAY

     We all accept the truth that their is no such perfect relationship in this world, everything will encounter problem and challenges. We all know that our relationship with our family is very strong but not meaning that it is perfect and don’t go any problems. It is hard to deal with family problems, why? because although they are your family we all have our own differences and point of view. Some in your family might think they are right but some will oppose it and we can’t deny it but the thing here is that it is family, family should understand and accept each others opinion and ideas.

    To be honest iv’e already encounter some problems with my family, we have arguments about something, a lot of misunderstandings, attitude problem and many more. But for me this made us stronger, problems will make any relationship stronger, if they can overcome it they are and they are going to be stronger.

Love, the most deceitful thing in this world. On of my teachers said that no more can be more deceitful than love, why? because love make us blind love make us believe what we want to believe even it is not true anymore.

Based on my experience i can say that it is somehow true, I was blind because of love all I can see is all the positive things in my loved ones before but i never saw her other side or it is better to say that I just simply didn’t mind in. Well maybe that’s because of love love make me blind although I know it is right that we should see the positive side of our loved ones but we shouldn’t forget that we have to know their other side so that we can be prepared or we can find a way if possible to solve it that is what true love means not only the positive side but making things possible and loving them for what they are and accepting their flaws and imperfections.

We should also be wise and let’s use also our minds when we love not only heart. Decide carefully, choose carefully, love unconditionally and don’t give all what you have. We have to be a real man and a real woman we should be mature enough to handle things and love.

“Love unconditionally so that you will be loved until eternity”- Old man Bert.

 

         Friends…. We treat them sometimes as part of our own family sometimes the greatest treasure we ever have or the one we always count on or rely. In this world it is so hard to live without friends, friends are like our basic needs to survive everyday of our life.

          Friends…. We should be careful in choosing our friends we should know them well. I know everyone of us is aware of so what we called fake friends or users, fake friends; friends when we are in front of them and if we turn they will back stab and hurt you and you sometimes you don’t know about it, users; those who are only there if they need you and only friend when they need something.

         Based on my personal experience iv’e met a lot of users and fake friends and i don’t regret to know them, I am thankful to them because they make me realize that not every friends of mine is real. I am friendly with other people I’m happy to know other people and have bonds with them having a lot of real friends is so much fun. If I have problems my friends will help me even I’m not telling them my problem I’m so lucky that I have that type of friends.

          Friends are one of the most important things we can have in this world specially those real friends and stays with us no matter what happens. Our friends that will be their to make us smile and happy in our darkest moments and even we are sad. Our friends that will treasure us to and treat us their important someone also. Our friends that will influence us and lead us to good and right path. So treasure your friends and love them too, we only live once so make sure to choose the right friend.

“The most I can do for my friend is simply be his friend.” – Henry David Thoreau
