I don't really know how to say that love is true...but I do have some ideas from a movie i have watched before.
These are some signs to know if it's already true love, based from the movie Got To Believe starring Claudine Barreto and Rico Yan:
1. there is a spark whenever the two of you see each other.
2. you feel uncomfortable having him/her around.
3. you always think something's wrong with you whenever he or she is near
It can never be clearly explained...how someone get to feel true love. But as for me, there is no such thing as true love, it is a matter of knowing and dedicating ones self to someone important.

How can you say that love is true?

Why sometimes our blessings seem a disaster for us?
There are times that what other people consider as blessing is not true for us who does receive it. It comes to a point like that when you feel that a good thing that happened to you has also caused a lot of bad things in return. Love can be a good example.
Love is indeed a blessing to everyone but then, once it enters your heart, confusion, commitment and extreme emotion follow. It can be such a wonderful thing for a moment but not forever. At a certain point, you will be experiencing sacrifice and pain. Surpassing all of those will still lead you anyway to happiness.
So, this question is not a big deal after all. A blessing is still a blessing and no matter what we have, we need to wholeheartedly accept it.

Why do some people derive pleasure from misfortune of others?
People have that selfish nature at some points...
It is a bit weird to see people talking about the misfortunes of others and them crossing the borderline. I do experience hearing and seeing people being so interested of the bad thing that has happened to a neighbor or a friend, in Filipino "pagchichismisan".
That attitude seems to be a part of our culture. It serves as the recreation of those people who have nothing to do at all. I find it really irritating to see such things. Why can't those people realize that the mere fact that they were talking about someone else bad experience is like adding more problem to that person?
I guess, we just have to respect personal lives and we should not make fun of others' misfortune.
We have to remember that we all have our own misfortunes to accept,and before intervening to others, let us first resolve our own and who knows? Maybe you will be able to help someone else
after...

SIMPLY the One..
He is at some point the person I really hated for he keeps his eyes on me in everything I do. But, now, I've realized that I can never find a man who could be such an inspiration. He is hardworking, no doubt about it. He always have over time in their office and whenever I see him in his and my mom's bedroom, he has a notebook on a hand and the other on his laptop. He goes home I guess once a week and worse once a month. I cannot blame him though, he is assigned in different places and regions in the country. Moreover, he is a father who looks so serious in front of many people but in our house, his better than Michael V. in making us laugh. My mom always tell us "Oh your dad, you can only joke around him when you're in the house..."I agree with her and that is one trait I really adore about him. Lastly, I can never deny the fact that he is a real family-man. He never let us down, if there's that person who will not stop working, day or night, rain or shine,it's him. He is more than a father, he is an inspiration, someone I should be thankful of having..He is the one who helped me become who I am now and If I'll be able to see God personally right at this moment...I'll not tell him all my desires, instead I'll thank him, thank him for giving me such a father...

LIFE AND FAMILY
It was all because of DESTINY…
It was already difficult for my grandmother to remember how her mom and dad met each other.It was a meeting even they cannot explain. The love between domingga alday and selvino Manalo was more than happiness and hardships, it was ultimately about taking care of their & children. The eldest of hem was my grandmother, Victoria Manalo, her other siblings were Anacito, Francisco, Mercedes, Melincia and Merlita Manalo.
Victoria was still in her sweet 17 when she found that an arranged marriage was set for her.It was a shocking news that any girl would not like. Everybody wants to have the chance to carefully choose the person they want to live with forever. It was Felix Ruiz, my grandfather, who captured the heart of my grandmother. Though, it was a difficult decision, they slowly learned to love each other. First there were hidden feelings, but as time passes, they admitted finally that they’ve realized that a learned love is stronger than love at first sight.
They had children, including Dolorfina and Virgilio Ruiz, my dad. He was an army officer who fell in love with a young girl in Manila. Elvira Tamises is the daughter of Elieuterio Tamises, a soldier and Virginia Dominggo, a public school teacher. My mom, Elvie always tell me that her parents had a very dramatic love story… Virginia was really not interested to Elieuterio before but he was a desperate suitor that he even followed Virgy in Quirino. After following her, my grandfather talked to my grandma’s parents and they were impressed with his determination.
They had two children, Christian and Elvira Ruiz. My mom was only 18 when she met my dad. It was a telenovela-liked meeting. My dad approached this college girl and asked her name. Who would ever think that they will be meant for each other?? My dad was 8 years older than my mom, a really big age gap. They developed feelings for each other…Now, my mom is already a teacher and her and dad’s love to each other was the reason why we’re here, me, Sharina and Shin.
It was a long story, though, it was something I don’t like to ever miss…
All that happened were not coincidences, they were like something planned, something destined….

This weekend, i stayed in Batangas because we visited my great grandmother and to welcome my uncle from abroad... After breakfast this Sunday, we decided to go because i still have to do a lot of assignments.
