World Thinking Day

February 22.



                World Thinking Day.

      And this chance of thoughts about this new pasttime of mine --
 CROSS-STITCHING.

     What my cross-stitch taught me...

A MESS IS BUT PART OF THE GOING...
A smudged aida with the markings so with the soiled done stitches can be washed. The wrong knots identified after the final touches can be lazy-ing. The whole picture can drown a mis-X or two anyway.

YOU CHOOSE YOUR OWN PATTERN...
Each of us has the freedom of choice. My parents tell me this and that. My friends frown about him. My neighbors say so. But I chose it. The varied hues of green interspersed that almost twisted my vision instead excited me more.

World Reading Day 2020

This was my preggo days. Unbeknownst, I visited my OB-Gyne just thrice. The first two for the sonography of the tiny life budding in my tummy. The third time was because of an impending urinary tract infection. I had more time reading this book than supposed visits to an OB-Gyne. G-d had been so good to me and had me a safe delivery of a daughter. The self-help book reached another hand of an expectant friend.  Whiling time during not-so-hectic clinic duty,  I laid a book to gorge on. One co-employee barged in for a photo op.  I met these young minds when I was in Caloocan. One day, we found ourselves dating threesome in a library. Suddenly, I felt like I belonged!  Ah! The student days. No, I don't want to mention my "extended" years of stay studying that degree Doctor of Veterinary Medicine.

World Day for Cultural Diversity

(Christ), in whom the whole building being fitted together,grows into a holy temple in the L-rd (Ephesians2:21) In the next coming years, I cannot imagine my daughter, a half-blooded Igorot whose father speaks Tagalog, mother who speaks Kankana-ey and Ilocano and schoolmates who speak Kapampangan or teachers speak English, how her liner would be. Further imagination brings me to hearing her say, "Adiak like idiay kung nasaan sina Lolo tan awan unay tao." 

Diversity in Biology

Dubbed as the "Hidden Paradise" in Consuelo, Macabebe, Pampanga, the mangrove or bakawan plantation caters to those who are serenity hungry. MANGROVE FORESTS Mangrove forest is also known as the “rainforest of the sea.” It grows well in tropical countries, including the Philippines.  Mangroves are an important part of the coastal and marine ecosystem that includes the seagrass and the coral reefs.  Of the world’s more than 70 mangrove species, around 46 species are known to occur in various parts of the country.   MANGROVES PROVIDE ECONOMIC AS WELL AS ECOLOGICAL BENEFITS, SUCH AS THE FOLLOWING: THEY ARE A GOOD SOURCE OF PRODUCTS LIKE ALCOHOL, MEDICINE, TANNIN, CHARCOAL, TIMBER AND HOUSING MATERIALS THEY SUPPORT FISHERIES PRODUCTION AND AQUACULTURE; THEY PROVIDE NURSERY GROUNDS, SHELTER AND FOOD FOR FISH AND OTHER SEA CREATURE; THEY PROTECT COASTAL COMMUNITIES FROM STORM SURGES, WAVES, TIDES AND CURRENTS; THEY ACT AS CARBON SINK BY REDUCING ORGANI...
