Dreams

Its important for me to dream.  Without it, I’m good as dead.

This blog has been frequently infused with lots of posts from my dreams, or things inspired by my dreams.  I pay good attention to them, for I believe everyone is equipped with a subconscious mind that is prepared to be your guide and your defense to daily life.

I watched the movie Inception last night.  I was quite surprised it didn’t get me dizzy, nor confused.  I’ve heard a lot of comments about it, including those that say, “You’d understand the movie better after the second time”.  Nope, not for me, and I’m not alone.  For people who pay attention to their dreams, and practice lucid dreaming, this is far from confusing.  Its the closest to bringing their experience to a wide audience.  A perfect demonstration of its possibilities.  Every night, each of us would dream about 5-6 dreams.  The technique is to remember them all in full detail and full color.

They say a dream connects us all in different ways.  Dreams are messengers and a portal to another dimension.  Since we only use a tenth of our minds, dreaming opens us to a whole new world that could benefit us or harm us in many ways. more…

My Top Six

I have been quite busy lately, but since I was tagged by Kat and promised to respond, here are my top visited six then:

1.  EmailsGmail, Yahoo! Mail, MSN, and UP Mail

I can’t be caught dead without checking my mails everyday.  For the record, I have six (6) Gmail accounts that I monitor, plus three (3) more belonging to mama and my two sisters.  I have two (2) Yahoo! Mail accounts where one is public, the other is private.  One MSN account and one UP account.  I usually forward all my emails to my one personal Gmail account.  From here, I get to segregate which ones to attend to first, and those that are trivial are left in the trash.

Emails waste too much time, ergo I do not send out too many forwards.  Only the ones I feel are very important goes out of my inbox. more…

I’m supposed to blog a lot of things tonight.  And, I’m supposed to do a lot tonight.

..But I’m kinda headachy all of a sudden.  I’ll pass up for tonight.  I’ll see you guys tomorrow..

My Series of Unfortunate Events

Warning:  This article is full of rants.  Be warned.

I know I’ve been running a lot of task juggling, priority fixing, financial arrangements, work immersion, and attempts for mind relaxing for the past few weeks but it seems to me, I have lost grip of my goal.

Patience is my virtue, and determination is a strong binding force in order to become patient.  At all cost, one must remember to be calm, to open the mind and relax, to be positive.  Positive — such a heavily loaded word.

Since last week, I have had attempts to stabilize my home PC since its hard disk was failing on me.  At first, I was shot, emotionless to realize that my Windows XP PC has suddenly ceased to boot itself.  Emotionless is such a shallow word.  In reality, I tried to react violently but failed to do so because I was aware that it would mean nothing after all.  The only good thing that seemed to save my ass was a very systematic habit that I have been practising all along–backup every month and after every important milestone.  Yeah, I thought.. “what could be bad?”.. But wait!  There’s more! more…

Find a good herald

The greatest fear in business is how to get your stuff into the open and how you can get people to be interested in your services/products.  By far, good businesses fail because they don't get much attention from their prospective clients/audience.  Though product/service may be good, essential word of mouth and advertisement may be necessary.  This too is one of the many fears of startups and other businesses. 

Even big companies do have to make callouts from time to time.  Some do find good advertisers for their post, while some rely on good word of mouth and referrals to make themselves noticed and patronized.  Just like the way bloggers want to advertise themselves on the net, they have Google's PageRank as their gauge. 

There are a lot of engines willing to store your link and thereby give you more exposure on the web.  Sure, bloggers earn link-ups through these engines and blog submission sites, but what exactly is the most essential key to linking you up?  Just like advertisers, it is necessary for them to be really into their niche, their target audience.  For me, what brings me happiness is when one of my links link me up too.  I believe that they get good stuffs from my site, and that's what keeps them coming back.

For jobsites, we've got a good go and trust on JobsDB.com and even Jobstreet.  Real estate companies need a good real estate marketing company.  Bloggers need blog engines like PinoyBlogger and BlogFlux.  There are a lot of services out there that help us out get heard.. We can't get all of these services and not all of them will suit our needs.  Its just a matter of choosing your herald wisely.  In the end, if we attain our desire to be heard and aided, then that would be the rank of your success!

Love for the Elders

Filipinos are always known for their family tradition.  We have a culture that is always joyous, friendly and have strong family ties.  We even stay close to our relatives and keep extended families together.  Each year, families celebrate reunions to meet new family members and even dedicate commemoration to the departed ones.  We never miss out events such as these because every family member is important.

More often than not, here in the Philippines, we do not leave out our elders to senior care homes like the known Home for the Aged.  We'd rather see them taken well cared of at the comfort of our own homes, either by ourselves, or via a private nurse.  Sure, it may be the best thing we could offer them.  We don't want to miss a day in their lives apart from our own, so this is by far the best gift we could give them.  Is this all?  Should we all leave it up to those caregivers/private nurses?  We must also learn how to learn what's best for them.  Senior care is not that simple.  There are a lot of things to consider like food, exercise, enough brain stimulation, mood, and rest.  There are good senior home reviews on the net that can help a lot for these. 

Somehow, the family keeps us very young in ways of the heart while our body ages.  And in the future, how much you've loved your own elders and your youngsters will be just as much love you'll receive when you're aged.

Body envy and vanity

Which species of mankind is more vain or envious?  Men or women?

You’ve often heard about curses, libel, murder and even voodoo crimes.  Most of them are funny because they are caused only by vanity or even envy.  Why does man want to keep on changing the way he is?

The media is guilty of provoking more women to be more vain.  Movies show men as loving and wanting only beautiful and sexy women who look like they are pretty dolls or goddesses of physical beauty.  Its the media too that advocates discrimination of physical appearance.  The prints too have made men and women depressed and too concerned about physical improvements. more…

George Lindemann Jr, a generous philanthropist

Everybody has had dreams of becoming rich.  Well, in one way or another, of course.

Some do dream about getting rich through working hard and saving up.  Others, want to start their own business.  Some are even wiser and spend more time making networks and understanding how the network can help all the members and thereby earn money and respect.   A lot of ways, really; but the easiest way, is well, being born into a rich family. more…
