On the last day of my friend’s father’s funeral in 1990, she felt a sudden surge of sadness knowing that she would never see him again. She stayed for as long as she could near his casket and gazed at his lifeless body. She didn’t want him to go. It was just too difficult for her.
Later, after the burial, a few of her father’s friends approached and consoled her, saying that her father loved her so much and he was so proud of her. It was indeed a consolation and she held on to it to help her move on.

Animated Bodies
The power of technology that makes possible the creation of images of human faces with animated bodies, but also the creativity and versatility of the persons who created it. Believe it or not, this image was created by a group of Filipino frays (Theology students) of the Order of St. Augustine in Valladolid, Spain. It simply goes to show that like any other human being, the “religious” are also capable of coming up with brilliant ideas, not to mention their sense of humor.
What’s new about KC Concepcion?
The United Nations World Food Programme announced KC Concepcion as the Philippine Ambassador against hunger. Would you believe that she went to Pikit, North Cotabato ? Wow! She went there to provide aid or support by giving food. She will be traveling more within and outside the Philippines to be the advocate of the World Food Programme. Aside from that, she will be having a one-month long TV drama special in ABS-CBN.
Touch and Heal
Are you stress or overwork? There is another way of relaxation aside from having a day-off or vacation. My sister told me that she spends almost 2 hours in a massage parlor (twice a month). She said that is very relaxing. Massage improves proper circulation thus promote healing in our body, releases tension in the most strenuous areas of our body like shoulders, back and neck. There are many techniques of massage but with one goal which is to promote healing and rejuvenation. And by the massage is the oldest form of medicine.
