My respect to her. Even during the times she was so criticized by her detractors (mostly politicians and big names in industry)my respect was always on her. Her child did not take the too much issues on her but look at her, still strong and face the people with dignity. My famous line from her was not her Pick Up Lines but being a mother “joyful noise”– she describes the baby when they adopted a baby and bring in their home and said she miss the joyful noise.

May Senator Senator Santiago rest in peace. Many felt sorry about her death.She is very useful and important to Philippines.I salute this brave lady, strong in determination and never was she afraid to fight all ills in the Philippine politics, and her brilliance shone like a star whose light never dims.

I do my best to eat healthy. I have been blessed to make it to 60 years of age and have not experienced any severe health problems that were the result of a bad diet. I eat meat, fruits, veggies, sweets, etc. My weakness is cheesecake. 🙂

I am a vegetarian so I don’t eat at most places. In fact, there is on one restaurant I do eat at, in all cases I would rather wait until I get home and cook something or just have a drink or a fruit.

Choose is only for wealthy people, poor people will never choose what food they eat. But because the question is going out for individual like me, my answer would be ‘it depends on the situation’.

When I attend party and lots of foods in the table, I choose what to pick, I don’t pick fried fish and other kinds of fish. I choose meat and vegetable salads. Fruits, any kinds of fruits will do for me.

But when crisis come and only one meal in the table during lunch or dinner at house, no way we can choose. Its okay, any foods served in the house is always the most delicious food we’ve ever taste.

nice article. Conveyed everything beautifully in a good way.

I do agree that we are wanting eating habits.
My way of eating is exactly the one you have described above. This is my habit from my childhood. I was eating in a selective manner. I was covering all most everything that gives Vitamins, proteins, oil, sugar, carbohydrates, minerals, in the adequate proportions. Even the elderly people were changing their way of eating when once they see me in any marriage functions and family get together functions.

There are people as observed by me who collect every item in their plate select a chair laying in a corner and give good exercise to their mouth. This is what I hate.

Generally, people hesitate to take their food in front of me for fear of my discipline. This is the saddest part of life.

Very nice educating write-up. It’s also a good idea to drink warm water every morning before taking any meal as it flushes all fats in the body. The similitude of this is that of the kitchen sink. If the kitchen sink is not flush with warm water regularly it is bound to block as oil will solidify in the its pipe.

That’s is some good writing right there. You be a laid out all the facts right. Okay for me i am a choosy eater of course I don’t eat everything but in my meals everyday i try to incooperate evrything. There is the protein, cabohydrates and vitamins. I think those are three most essential things you need to be a in your meals. Even doctors and experts have said it before eating meat is not bad, but say it in bits. It’s better to have white meat than red meat alright but you should not skip it altogether. Anyway all the other things that you have mentioned are very important in our daily eating. It’s true that we are what we eat. Our eating habits are definitely getting out of control and that has to be checked.

I am fully conscious of what I eat taking care to see that what i eat is good for me. Having said that I do get tempted to go for stuff which may not be quite what my health demands 😀

Courting even after 44 years of marriage is indeed the secret of a happy marriage. I hope many will read your blog. I am sharing it on FaceBook

I do not believe if you say that both are born in the same year, same month and the same date. How can it be?

I do agree wit you. It is the communication that keeps the entire thing in an activity. It makes the process to continue . The more you communicate with each other the more opened the doors of love. This is the greatness of expression that makes the communication great and lively. Mere communication will be dull. It should be spicy and sweet. Everything goes perfectly with a spicy communication and gives an opportunity to open ourselves freely and frankly. It removes all the hurdles in life and makes it a heaven to live in.

What else can be more meaningful in this life but to find the fulfillment of feelings. We loved the love that also loving us. Living with him/her for the rest of our life. Doing the things that make her happy and she is doing the doing that makes you happy. Love is the happiness that can only be felt by our heart when that someone is also loving us.

I am happy to read this kind of happiness.

Wow you’re is an inspiring story. 44years is not little time for anyone. You amaze me that you still court your wife even in marriage tell that to th3 generation of today no one will even want to think of taking your word for it. We are living in times where love has become a game of catch and Chase then release. No one seems to be taking marriage with the seriousness that it so demands. But am just smiling as I read your story it’s challenging to some of us who have not yet jumped into that river of marriage. I have always believed that marriage can be a beautiful thing if understood. We are told that man don’t oftenly tell their wives that they love them orally all the time but it’s shown through actions. So you are just confirming it to me that a man doesn’t have to keep telling a woman that he loves her all the time. You have also talked about communication which is key to keeping aartiage or a relationship going. Nowadays that has become like a nightmare to many couple because oneay feel like that are being bothered with questions, the other may feel like talking too much is not a good thing. But the truth is talking clears out any doubts that one may have about the spouse and it also brings out the real feelings of an individual thanks for sharing your lovely story.

The problems of a writer are how to begin and how to end.The best thing to do is write what pops up from the mind, and then develop the topic . Let us not forget the 3 parts of a composition intro, body and conclusion. As long as the beginning is ready, the next thing to do is just support the main topics.In our case as bloggers, we can immediately strike a beginning sentence according to the blog we want to write.

This is the area where every writer makes a sluggish movement. This is an important area to attract the readers to read your article. As you said rightly, the concluding part is a difficult exit. It should be decorated nicely to make others feel free smelling the flowers in the Garden. The Garden should be nicely arranged with good pictures, some thrilling quotes et., Everything should be arranged properly. Others, there is no purpose of keeping a beautiful garden without good entry and exit.

Thinking of a great opening sentence is such an important aspect of being a writer.

With so much information being written and shared online and offline, we cannot afford to be boring or vague.

This is the usual and the common problem of every writer. In your case, you write the problem of the opening sentence which seems unattractive. Where? How do you qualify your title to attract readers? Then as you have said, reader’s attention would be pegged to read more if the introductory sentence in your post is interesting or catchy.

Yours is a declarative statement of what your topic is about. Why not make it interesting? And how do you do it? You see. It is not easy but if you are used to writing you could easily make it and have everything flowing smoothly.

Is this for short story, ‘how to open sentence in writing short story’. Nice tip here. Actually, the first paragraph is one of the hardest work for many writers. They don’t know how to begin the story. I have read a book on how to start a short story. But this does not matter when you want to write. You don’t think how to start.

My tip is here: think of a scene, any scene in your house, school, in the garden, eating, quarrel, and try to narrate that scene, this is how I start my story.

Rather than talking about the opening sentence I would rather worry about giving an appropriate title which normally attracts readers and viewers.

My warmest congratulations for having that solid tie with your wife and family.You have a very strong relationship.The good thing is you are both educators and if parents are teachers , they are also good fathers and mothers to their children.Cheers!

First and foremort I have bend my head so low in respect to a great marriage.Your announcement in church of the three important words after 44 years is another milestone. Not yet man,raising children from age zero to above 30 is not a mean achievement. No,making most of your children have their own famililies make you a super dad. Hail to the dad of the year!

Wow am so moved with your story of persistence and challenges. In this year’s that we live in I
It’s so unusual to hear that a couple have loved together for 15years and overits usually a maximum of 10 years and that’s it. Am moved and encouraged that marriage a do work for those who want them to work. It takes a lot of courage and determination to go as far as you have. Let me just congratulate you on your 44 years of marriage that’s a milestone. How do you keep up with the vortship part? Do you take her out on weekend nights or still but flowers how do you do it. I would like to have a heart and time to do that for my spouse and grow old together. Maybe you shed some light on the courtship part could be a big lesson for most of us am sure. Thanks for sharing your story and I wish you more loving years together.

What else can be more happier than being in love always to the person we always be with. 44 years are already golden to me, that will never doubt the pure love in the hearts.

I know, sometimes, the rocky road is within you but what is important is how you walk through to that path of your marriage life and you have proven how love can conquer all the trials and problems in your marriage. Many families should envy your marriage, but more than that, we should follow your footsteps.

Yes, you say right that marriage is the second name of mutual understanding between husband and wife. Marriage is also called the of soul compromise. There are many benefits of marriage first you find a life partner for talking day and night. I say woman is a talking bird on earth who sings for husband and children for whole day.

As you’ve probably heard, nearly half of all marriages now end in divorce, leaving bitter spouses and confused children in their wake. Don’t let this happen to you! Whether your marriage is going through tough times or is experiencing marital bliss, or even if you’re not yet married but considering it, here’s some free but proven advice to help your marriage last.

It’s straight from God, the one who created and ordained marriage! If you’ve tried everything else, why not give God a chance? Follow the keys in this guide, and you can secure your home.

Continue (or perhaps revive) the courtesies of courtship in your married life. Successful marriages do not just happen they must be developed. Don’t take each other for granted, or the monotony that results will destroy your marriage.

Keep love growing by expressing love for one another or it will die, and you will drift apart. Love and happiness are not found by seeking them for yourself, but rather by giving them to others. So spend as much time as possible doing things together if you would get along well. Learn to greet each other with enthusiasm. Relax, visit, shop, sightsee, eat together. Don’t overlook the little courtesies, encouragements, and affectionate acts.

Surprise each other with little gifts or favors. Try to “outlove” each other. Don’t take more out of marriage than you put into it. Divorce itself is not the greatest destroyer of marriage, but rather, lack of love. Given a chance, love always wins.

Honestly saying I am writing since many years, but I never completed a single book. That is true that for becoming good writer one must need to keep reading lots of book. But instead of books, I love to read different online blogs. I am following many online technology related blogs and I used to keep reading them regularly whenever they have some new posts. So that’s why may be I am writing more related to technology stuff.
But surely I will try to read few books too but yes it should be my interest related. Good going.

You are a good writer though. I love reading interesting stuff. I love adventure.

It used to be when I get hold of a book, I used not to put it down till I reach its end. There were too many good story books like ‘Alice in wonderland’,’Guilliver’s travels’ and many more. They were good

I remember that when I was still a little kid I love reading stories in the books, books from school. Those times when there were no kindle and ebooks, no facebook and amazon including wattpad, so the best entertainment for reading is through the hard copy, books, comics and papers.

I have read Filipino stories like Bernardo Carpio– who is a strong person who bent the two mountains from colliding each other. I have also read the Florante and Laura and many more stories and epics that build my talent as a writer.

Very nice, all true, one can become an ardent researcher and become lover of words and art. We need art in writing. We also acquire some talents and skills as months go by.We can also gain many friends worldwide.

Your points are quite good. I am writing since many years, though I am still not professional one. But one thing is sure that I have learned so many things with my experience. With my keep trying my writing has been improved lot in compare to past. And yes here we need to keep patience for everything. So that skill will be improve for all of us. Good going.

I only write online because writing is a skill that I have and I figured it could be used to become gainfully self-employed, and I could work from home, and hopefully my efforts will generate consistent income. All the other stuff that comes with doing that, such as, meeting new people, etc. That’s just “gravy”. 🙂
