Be the best, aim for the best.
Do not settle for anything less.

Mag-aral maigi. Kung titigil ka sa pag-aaral, manghihinayang ka pagtanda mo dahil hindi mo naranasan ang kakaibang ligayang dulot ng mga araw na walang pasok o suspendido ang klase o absent ang teacher. (Haaay, sarap!).

According to Ted Chiang, “Hell is the absence of God”.

According to me, Hell is the conscious denial of God’s presence. For God is everywhere, and without Him there will be no Hell.

Man’s own personal Hell on earth, however, is one’s existence denied by a loved one.

Jesus was put on the cross. Yet, He never denied anybody.

The point is, Hell is man-made.

“Pinag aawayan nyo lang ang kickback ninyo!” blurted Senator Miriam Defensor Santiago in one of the sessions of the ZTE Broadband Scandal.

Nothing more can be farther from the truth, as we Filipinos witness the ousting of House of Representatives speaker Jose de Venecia, following a move by Palawan Representative Abraham Kahlil Mitra. As of writing, the votes are at 143 to 32, in favor of declaring the Speakership vacant. Prior to this, JDV was given the chance to air his sentiments, and he did so for 58 minutes (although he was only given 10 minutes). As he emotionally described (with accompanying slams to the table) his contributions to the society and how he supported the past presidents, including GMA, I could not help but be amused.

Drink
But only with the right company.

Smoke
But only the good stuff.

Gamble
But only what you can afford to loose.

Dive. Plunge. Risk.

But always, always, always
Remember to quit while you still can.

There is something good about being confident in one’s knowledge.
But I pity the know-it-all who, blinded by his own conviction, has lost respect for a fellow’s differences.

The moment the self is placed on a pedestal,
the moment one ceases to listen,
the moment arrogance is valued over respect,
Knowledge becomes worthless.

For the value of knowledge is always relative.
It is never absolute.

I never strive to be better than anybody but myself.
There will always be someone out there better than me,
But against myself I will always be the best.

Anything worth living for is worth dying for.
But what is worth living for?
That which only death can make eternal.

If I could be reborn with all the power of the Internet by my side, I wonder what that would have made me out to be? Humans are such awesome creatures. We just keep getting better and better.
