Happy Father's Day

"On this cherished occasion of Father's Day, we gather to celebrate the extraordinary men who have played a guiding role in our lives. They have been there through our victories and setbacks, offering unwavering support and unconditional love. Fathers have the ability to instill confidence in us, urging us to dream big and pursue our passions. Their words of wisdom resonate in our minds, pushing us to be the best version of ourselves.

A father's love is like a gentle breeze that tugs at the sails of our aspirations, guiding us toward success. Their comforting presence envelopes us in warmth and security, serving as a source of inspiration and strength. They are the silent heroes who quietly sacrifice their own desires to ensure our needs are met, the ones who put our happiness above all else.

But a father's impact goes beyond providing for our physical needs; they shape us into compassionate, empathetic individuals. Through their actions and teachings, fathers impart invaluable life lessons on integrity, resilience, and perseverance. They teach us the importance of compassion, instilling in us an understanding of the world and a desire to make it a better place.

Fathers are our first superheroes, demonstrating acts of bravery and selflessness in every small gesture. From late-night stories to reassuring hugs, they possess a magical ability to heal our wounds, both seen and unseen. Their unwavering patience and unwavering belief in our abilities nourish our spirits, enabling us to overcome obstacles and reach for the stars.

Today, let us not only honor our fathers but also express our gratitude for the countless sacrifices they have made. Let's take this opportunity to thank them for their unwavering support, their guidance, and their never-ending love. May we cherish the memories shared and create new ones, forging an unbreakable bond that will last a lifetime.

On this special day, let us celebrate all fathers, whether they are biological, adoptive, stepfathers, or father figures. Let us acknowledge the diverse forms of fatherhood and recognize the impact these incredible men have had on our lives. Their love, devotion, and dedication deserve our admiration and appreciation.

So, here's to the fathers who have shaped us, inspired us, and stood by us through thick and thin. Your love is a precious gift that we treasure, and on this day, we honor your spirit, your strength, and your unwavering commitment. Happy Father's Day!"

Handwritten Letters ✉

🖋️ **The Art of Handwritten Letters: A Personal Touch Beyond Words** 💌

In this digital age where emails zip through cyberspace in an instant, there's something truly special about receiving a hand-written letter. Each stroke of the pen carries a piece of the sender's soul, making the message more than just words on paper.

Hand-written letters are like a warm embrace, enveloping the recipient with the sender's thoughts and emotions. The act of putting pen to paper requires time, care, and intention, turning a simple note into a treasure trove of sentiments.

Unlike emails that can be typed and sent off swiftly, hand-written letters demand a deeper connection. From selecting the perfect stationery to the choice of ink, each element is a reflection of the sender's personality and emotions, adding layers of meaning to the message.

When you receive a hand-written letter, you hold not just words but energy in your hands. You can feel the love, joy, or sadness that the sender poured into the letter, creating a tangible link between hearts separated by distance.

Next time you feel the urge to reach out, consider picking up a pen instead of typing on a screen. Let your thoughts flow onto paper, capturing the essence of your emotions in a way that no email can replicate.

In a world filled with instant communication, let's not forget the timeless beauty and personal touch of hand-written letters.
🌿✉️🌿✉️🌿✉️🌿✉️

#HandwrittenLetters, #PersonalTouch, #FromTheHeart,

For me, handwritten letters ✉ are classic, very artistic no matter how the penmanship goes.

It touches your heart and speaks directly to your soul❤️♥️❤️♥️ indeed very personal...

Cleaned and do some sorting today.

Un-earth some memories that have been kept and bound for a long time...

Those lovely memories have been on my treasured stuff of yesterday.

Kept for more than a decade now and it holds so many memories that I will never forget.

Gone are the days, where we collected different stationaries to engrave our thoughts, fears, hopes, and dreams, and feelings of resentment, joy, and success.

Those times that it took us hours and sometimes days to relay our stories in written thoughts...

We hold it dear to combine all happy, good, and even the not-so-good experiences in that single mail sent via postman or even personally delivered right in our mailboxes.

Those are the times were the Internet is just starting, and I have been confused about how email addresses work its wonders. Where Internet cafe is not that rampant, and Internet usage is so expensive and crawling.

Those are days, I do not know the difference between a blog to a website and www is just an abbreviation that you are online.

From Mea Cristina Go, indeed such a lovely penmanship

Grabeh, pinaiyak ako ng movie na ito, actually ang daming emosyon na naibuhos ko habang pina-nunuod ko ito. 
Ang galing galing nina Empoy at Alex sa movie na ito, napaka ganda ng portrayal nilang dalawa dito.
Yung storyline is maganda and yung humor ni Empoy nakapag dagdag ng buhay talaga na natural na natural nyang binibitiwan kay Alessandra.

 

I'll share some hugot lines na talagang tumatak sa akin while and after watching this movie.

You may read the movie synopsis at this link Wikipedia  

“Noong nakakakita ka, ‘di mo ako nakita.

Nang mabulag ka, doon mo lang ako nakita.”-Tonyo

“Bulag na bulag na ako sa pag-ibig.”-Tonyo

“Bulag ka ba? Nakikita mong bulag ako?” – Lea 

“Eh, ano kung bulag ka,

ako naman ang magsisilbing mata mo eh.” - Tonyo

“Nagugutom ako kapag nakarinig ako ng bell.

Naaalala ko ang recess.” -Tonyo

“Nagluto pala ako ng turon. 

Matamis.

Baka kailangan mo ng asukal. 

Ang asim kasi ng mukha mo.”-Tonyo

Isang beses lang ako nagmahal.

Masama ba magmahal ng isa lang?”-Tonyo

“May mga bagay na kailangan mong paghirapan

bago mo makuha.” -Tonyo

“Kailangan kumain ng repolyo para sumaya ka!” -Lea

“Huwag kang masyadong dumikit sa akin.” -Lea

“Paano tayo magiging close if ganyan ka.” –Tonyo

"Nakaranas ka na ba ng winter?”- Lea

“Oo, sa puso mo. Ang lamig kasi.” – Tonyo

“Paano mo malalaman kapag mahal mo na ang isang tao?” – Tonyo

“Kapag nagbago na ang mundo mo….

Nag-iiba ang expression ng mukha mo, 

lumiliwanag ang mukha mo.” – Lea

“Alam mo feeling ko ang pogi-pogi mo. 

Kapag makita kita, pang-leading man ang mukha mo.” – Lea

“Bulag ka nga.” – Tonyo

“Nang gabing ito, pinagkatiwala ko ang buhay ko sa isang saging.” – Lea

“Ako lang. Ako lang ang pusong may saging.” – Lea

“Salamat, puso. Nagmamahal, saging.” – Tonyo

Everytime...

A Love Counselor once said,

"Every time you forgive him,
he will love you a little more
And you will love him a little less.

So when the day came he loves you more,
that's the day you stopped loving him...
