Hear Yeah! Hear Yeah!



I just asked for a link and now here I am so inspired to write because she inspires me a lot! Always. I am in a way have [also] been handicapped [excuse the word, pag in pain lang naman Tack....hehehe] by my scoliosis' excruciating pain attack but compared to Kat, well it shamed me to even complain a bit for this simple [huh?, oh my...!] agony. I believe God veered me into blogging to let our paths meet at a crossroads, to be able to form a [true] friendship out of two mere strangers. I still can vividly remember our first meeting at Tiendesitas. Whoah, a rare chance. I didn't plan it but it came and now, if one thing I'm really thankful about blogosphere...it's when I gain real friends. One is Katrina Yarza. The ever woohoo girl. She's really godsent, because she always make me feel lighter, when in fact it should be otherwise. She's really decided to hang in despite her illness. And with that perseverance I don't think I can equal her superb spirit that is now being spread not only via websites but on broadsheet and tv programs as well. I am so proud of how she took everything in stride, rather than be totally frustrated knocking her head [up] against the brick wall. Some might just feel empty and knock around and keep to themselves and become anti-social. But not Tack. She's really amazing I tell you. One must get to know her so as to imbibe her positivity and kakikayan. [of course ever bida rin si Madge sa mga serbisyo niya as a mom diba Kat? kaming mga alipin...sa gigilid, lol] She will always have a soft spot in my heart because in a way she has changed my life's view positively then on. I am more positive now, even more than more...like what she always say..."masarap mabuhay, tikman mo!"

Kcat finds life’s beauty beyond pain



PS/***I have promised to give her a white Hello Kitty [ ahe...] for her birthday [ahe again, anoong petsa na ito???] but it's like a long row to hoe. So tila nakakahiya naman masyado if I let this month end without sending her that stuff. So... ***

Courage is our shield...


For almost a couple of years since I got the chance to know more about Tack (personally have had met her at Tiendesita's before I left the country), and I dearly call her the woohoo girl...because everytime na may news yan, she'd go..."woohoo" to express great anticipation and joy...ay ang haba yata ng intro ko...just explaining...now ko lang binasa yung Tack's homepage & about her message niya in full. Though marami na akong alam about her from exchanging sms msgs sa kanya and isa pa fave ko yung blog niya. Kasi for me I get to be a lot stronger pag nababasa ko yung musing niya everyday. It's quite uplifting talaga and believe ako sa faith niya and for that I bow...a lot. This girl really must be having such strength to go on, no matter what. She is also, has began a common Ate Tack in my household ever since. The children also look up to her, and becomes a role model of courage and vibrant disposition. I soon realized somehow that it was God who brought us together, but the irony is...she's the one making me braver and stronger instead of the other way around. I am a brave person as everyone knows that it's my high point, but somehow I knew that there were times that I wanna give up. I couldn't contain myself from being drawn to loneliness or disappointment some people hurled at me. I am resilient and my faith is enormous and I don't want to tackle much about it...I just want to keep it to myself since I hate to sound so holy. I'm just a normal human being who has the tendency to become weak some times. And reading Tack's life...I think I have no reason to complain much about life's cruelty. And to rephrase it...life is a blessing indeed...it's just that some people make some mess around us. Just yesterday, I went to church since it was candelaria...and I went also to Adoration Chapel. There I'm always able to sort things out and contemplate on things. Again, I was relieved. Faith really helps us become a better person. One should have firm faith to serve as an armor against life's adversities and afflictions.

The man of wisdom is never of two minds;

the man of benevolence never worries;
the man of courage is never afraid.
