Every Second of Every Thing





Experience is our best mentor. It is a guiding light that enlightens our whole being to be a better one. It gives a strong bond and builds rapport to the persons involve and most importantly, our experiences give color to our visions in life.  Who would have thought that everything would end to be such a success? Let’s take a flashback. Weeks before, I was so busy, we were so busy. The first thing we did was making our props. We spent many hours in doing such. We then took our shootings every places that suits the theme of the scene. We have to prepare our costumes so that we would look better in the camera and that we could portray exactly the character as exact as possible as it should be. We didn’t expect challenges and hindrances in making our video. We thought that it just a simple thing to that could be done easily but what we expected is the exact reverse for every scene and setting that we are into has it’s hidden meaning. Meanings that are beyond compare. Meanings that turned us into a person that we didn’t expect. 


We didn’t notice that day by day we are getting mature. We are able think better for we’ve done brainstorming. I ask ideas from my group mates on what things should we do and so glad that each one of us offered their cooperation. Our main journey starts at Barangay 5, Talakag, Bukidnon in the Yellow House, White House and in the forest. We had also that setting in the Municipal Hall. And our last stop is at Roan Beach Resort. Here, unexpected moments takes place. We to stable our minds that we are far from home.
 We have to take care of ourselves and we have to be responsible of our actions. Cooperation with one another took over. We thought that we won’t make it because the first thing that make us weak is the boat. We have a hard time just to rent a boat used in our movie because our time using the boat is limited. We have to maximize our time to the best of our ability. As what we’ve expected we failed our expectations that we would finish the shootings for one day. In fact, it extended to one day because every scene took several hours to finish. The next morning, we woke up early to take those scenes that we weren’t able to perform the day before gladly, we finished our shooting at the beach on that morning. We decided to go home. We then had a stop over at Macahambus cave for our last shooting. We were so enjoyed. We were so happy that time. 

Every second of every thing with my group mates seems so irreplaceable. It is an irreplaceable treasure that isn’t exchangeable by a ton of gold or any other treasures. We’re done with our shooting but the pressure had just started. The video making had just started. We still have to give our time and efforts in making such. The video making is so critical, we have to have patience especially in trimming and cutting the videos. The insertion of the sound effects is the hardest part for me because we have to repeat playing the video to know that the sound effects suits the movie setting. We must have the timing because if the timing of the sound effects goes wrong it will affect the whole production of the movie.
There are times that we’re about to give up. We already have lost that we will finish the movie but I’m so thankful that I have my group mates that are very optimistic. We strive the hardest effort in making such movie productions. With all those hindrances we’ve shared to each other, at last we’ve done editing the video, but sad to say there were sound effects and narration that weren’t inserted because some of our file corrupted. I want to cry because it’s very hard for our part that in just one glance some of our files had corrupted that made our  efforts useless. Gladly, we thought of a remedy until we finished our movie with all our hearts and our souls!

Isang Editoryal tungkol sa Kurapsiyon



Problemang Kurapsiyon
Times New Roman /12
Ika- 21 ng Setyembre, 2015

Kurapsiyon, problemang seryoso’t nakaaalerto
Isa sa matinding problemang kinakaharap ng bansang Pilipinas ay ang kurapsiyon. Ang kurapsiyon ay isang sistema na kung saan ang pondo o perang nararapat na ibahagi sa mga tao ay napupunta lamang sa mga bulsa ng mga tiwaling opisyal ng gobyerno. Ang mga paraan ng kurapsiyon na nangyayari sa bansa ay ang pagnanakaw ng pondo, paglustay ng salapi, panunuhol at maging ang mga kasunduan sa likod ng mga mamamayan. Ang pulitika ang ugat ng kurapsiyon. Sa katotohang nauukol sa mundo ng pulitika ay sa halip na pagbabago ang pagtuunan ng pansin ay ito ang naging hudyat sa pag-usbong ng mga kurakot na opisyales ng pamahalaan.
Hindi maipagkakaila na ang ganitong problema ay nakakaalerto’t nakakaalarma. Bilang isang mamamayang Pilipino dapat lang na malaman natin kung saan naapupunta ang pondong karapat-dapat na maibahagi sa atin dahil isa ito sa mga dahilan kung bakit mayroong kakulangan sa pampublikong pasilidad kagaya nalang ng mga kagamitan sa mga ospital at maging sa mga pampublikong paaralan. Dahil kung iisipin nating mabuti isa  ito sa mga dahilan kung bakit nabibilang tayo sa mga bansang mahihirap.
Sa katunayan, ayon sa World Bank ang 40% ng pondo ng gobyerno ay napupunta lamang sa mga bulsa ng mga tiwaling mga opisyal ng bansa. Sa aking pananaliksik, ayon sa Ombudsman’s Finance and Management Information Office, ang kabuuang 3,852 kaso ng kurapsiyon ay inihain laban sa mga opisyal ng lokal na pamahalaan sa taong 2011. Sa mga ito, ang 633 ay inihain sa Luzon, 600 sa Visayas at 544 sa Mindano.
Ang Philippine National Police (PNP) ang pumapangalawa sa dami ng mga kasong inihain laban dito at kabilang din ang mga sumusunod na kagawaran: Kagawaran ng Edukasyon (562 kaso), Philippine Information Agency (490 kaso), Kawanihan ng Rentas Internas (416 kaso), Sandatahang Lakas ng Pilipinas (304 kaso), Kawanihan ng Adwana (177 kaso), Kagawaran ng Kapaligiran at Likas na Yaman (155 kaso), Kagawaran ng Kagalingang Panlipunan at Pagpapaunlad (148 kaso), Kagawaran ng Katarungan (98 kaso). Noong 2012, ang Pilipinas ay may ranggong 105 na may 3.4 Consumer Price Index sa talaan ng Transparency International na rumaranggo ng 176 mga bansa at teritoryo batay sa kung gaano silang katiwali ang mga opisyal ayon sa publikong sektor. Ang Pilipinas ay kahanay na ng mga bansang Algeria, Armenia, Bolivia, Gambia, Kosovo, Mali, at Mexico.
Ang kurapsiyon ay maituturing na sakit ng lipunan. Sa halip na ang mga pondo ay ibinabahagi sa mga mamamayan ay hindi ito naibibigay dahil ibinubulsa lang ng mga tiwaling opisyal. Kamakailan lang ay nahuli ng mga awtoridad si Janet Lim-Napoles na tinaguriang utak ng Pork Barrel Scam. Alinsunod dito ang pagdakip at pagkakulong ng tatlong senador na sina Bong Revilla, Jinggoy Estrada at Juan Ponce Enrile sa kasong pandarambong. Bakit parang nagkaiba nag ikot ng mundo ng pulitika? Sa halip na layunin ng mga itinakdang opisyales ng pamahalaan ang iahon ang Pilipinas tungo sa kaunlaran ay bakit parang ang iilan sa kanila’y iniuudyok tayo sa kahirapan?
Bilang isang mamamayang Pilipino ay napagtanto ko sa aking sarili na hindi lang sila ang dahilan n gating kahirapan. Tayo mismo ay mayroong ginagampanang isang malaking responsibilidad upang masugpo ang problemang ito. Kailangan nating isaisip na nasa atin ang kapangyarihan. Tayo ang pamahalaan kaya nararapat lang na siyasatin nating mabuti ang karapat-dapat na iluklok sa puwesto. Dahil ito ay isang problemang nakakaalerto nararapat lang na mgakaroon tayo ng solusyong epektibo. Ito ay nangangailangan ng sanib-puwersa ng mga mamamayan at ng mga opisyal. Simulan na natin ngayon at makakamit din natin ang pag-unlad at pagbabagong ating inaasam-asam. Tayo ang simula ng pagbabago!

Does God care on what we eat?


This is a basic question that probably a Christian do not mind to answer. Unlike question such as, does God care on what you hear, see, speak, and do? Even on how someone dress He cares and on your relationship towards your neighbor, how much more on what we take to our body? Indeed, God the Father is caring and one of His concern is on what we eat.
God has provided us everything we need. He made the world perfect since his creation is perfect. Would you believe if we are bound to eat everything He made for it is made to be eaten? Would you agree if someone will tell you this is clean for it was made clean or it was cleanse? A simple example would be a rat, it is a mammal, it has four legs and it is made by God but it is not a food. If someone is to measure your trust, then tell you; eat our main dish, don’t worry, all we serve is clean, it was made clean, it was Jesus who made it clean when He sacrifice himself in the cross. Trust Him, his God. Then question, would you eat something known to be unclean? We would probably say, it is very obvious that rats are dirty. That is true rats are naturally made dirty. Then how about pig? Are pigs and other sea foods clean? They are delicious, how come God made something delicious, which is not to be eaten?
1.       Did God instructed His people on things that can be eaten?
I believe that we only have one bible. The contents are instructions, law, story of obedience, loyalty, true worship, prophecy, disobedience, etc. Do you think Adam and Eve knew the laws pertaining about it? Yes, but I think they don’t eat meat during their time, they are purely vegetarian. On the time of Noah, I believe they already knew the instruction of God regarding animals that can be eaten or not. When God instructed Noah, “Take with you seven pairs of each kind of ritually clean animal, but only one pair of unclean animal.” (–Genesis 7:2) This is a clear instruction, especially when God told Moses to instruct his people the different requirement of an animal to be classified as clean in Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14:3-21. It is very clear that we should not eat camel, pig, sea foods, hawks, reptile, etc. but then why keep on eating? We’re not talking salvation here, we are talking obedience and trust.
2.      Did Yeshua(Jesus) abolished the law?
Actually, clean and unclean animal during their time is not a big issue. Why would he teach the people of Israel on things already knew? It is already inculcated in their mind that they should not eat it because it is not a food. In short, they have a biblical lifestyle. By the way, when the bible says “Do not eat pig” on the book Leviticus and Deuteronomy, why do we have to scan in the New Testament to find something that can defend ourselves from eating swine flesh? And then we only find a verse that state, “It is not what goes into your mouth that makes you ritually unclean; rather, what comes out of it makes you unclean” (-Matthew 15:11). Why make things complicated? Well, in fact this is figure of speech and Yeshua mean something different on how we interpret it. Supposedly, we should not interpret figure of speech literally because it mean something deeper. Even his apostles ask Him on what He meant about the saying.
We just have to remember that Jesus himself said, “I have not spoken on my own authority, but the Father who sent me has commanded me what I must say and speak.”(-John 12:49). Furthermore, Yeshua warned us in interpreting on what he says when He said, “Do not think that I have come to do away with the Law of Moses and teachings of the prophets. I have not come to do away with them but to make their teachings come true. Remember that as long as heaven and earth last, NOT the least point nor the smallest detail of the Law will be done away with – not until the end of all things. ” (-Matthew 5:17-18). So, this is clear, and if we resist that it was made clean then you are actually telling Him liar or else someone out there made it clean for you. Why would you defend yourself from eating such things? What is sin by the way? Transgression of God’s Law. Then, what sinners do? According to Sirach in chapter 32 verse 17, “Sinners have no use for correction, and will only interpret the Law to suit themselves.” Actually, we cannot argue with the word because it is perfect and consistent for it is God.  Do we have to find verse that contradicts verses?
3.      Did Yeshua or His apostles ate something unclean?
No. They never ate unclean animal. When? It was Peter who resist to God when the Father ordered him to kill and eat different animals in a vision. Peter said, “Certainly not, Lord! I have never eaten anything ritually unclean or defiled.”(-Acts 10) During this time Yeshua already died and a few years after His death. Then, for such duration of time, why did the apostles did not eat something unclean or defiled? Remember not to interpret his vision literally because even God repeated it three times because he cannot understand it because he thought it is literal. For clearer understanding the interpretation is written on the same chapter.
We cannot claim we have Him and believe in Him if we do not obey Him. Remember Yeshua said “If you love me you will obey my commandments.” And Sirach said, “Believing in the Law means keeping God’s command”. By the way, how will you show that you believed in him? In Hebrew, believe means to trust and obey. How will you obey a leader if you don’t put your trust in him? Nowadays, we cannot actually communicate God like on time of Elijah where he can talk to God and answer his questions literally in a conversation. Yet, he gave His word which is the fountain of life through the bible which became His instrument for His people to find truth and discern the prophecy. Bottom line question, how much trust did you put in your priest, your pastor, or your leader compared to your trust in the bible and in the word. Put in mind that the Word is God himself. The word is perfect and it does not contradict each other? These actually makes a lot of sense. Simple question: Does God care on what we eat? YES!
