thanks for sharing this, I never knew the photos in the media library were provided by literacy base, now I understand that those were saved from photos uploaded by writers..

@ acela

Like what you mentioned, we should watermarked before uploading our personal photos, so that if ever they use it, it’s there in the photo already and they cannot deny anymore that it’s yours.

I never knew also about this phone media, and all that, nice posts thanks and i like it but the thing is that using some words that are technical which make no clue to some

I thought they were free to use…. I usually look for the pinterest type or the kind with the little attribution… like if you use getty

I can relate, especially when our daughter was just a kid and is already going to school in her primary grades.

I have to think of what our helper will cook for breakfast while I am at the office about to go home. It has to be rice with a viand like sausage , eggs and the like and that she should have milk. That being so, it will also be our breakfast of course.

Lunch too would be thought as to what already, in the evening before the day. And so with dinner.

I always take into consideration our child. Good thing for us, we can eat whatever she eats. And since she’s a kid and picky, I have to make them palatable and yet healthy.

It’s hard indeed to be a working mother. You work and you meantime should think of what to cook, since our kid goes to school.

I agree it take into your mind all the effort and all the fridge too, you will think what i have , what this like and what that like, how to cook it in oven or use the stove, shall i do it that way or that way, ok maybe they will east little so to make that amount of half the amount, ok then when to do it now , or later. its hard and needs effort just to thing and decide what to eat and what to cook for us, make the plate that all of the family like also is hard, think and think to find something, the things for us is that we are not many so we like to eat light breakfast like eggs and cheese and tea of course, but lunch is what make me think and change lots and lots and lots, maybe doing list for every day weekly good thing, i did not try that but maybe, i have to do that alone any way and no helper nor assistant from the family as i like to do what i like in the kitchen and take my time then go put on the table

You and your wife are doing great things for the birds. They can have a good nest out of the coconut husk and cushion you provided for them. I also put some bird seed in our yard for the wild birds to feed on. They look so hungry.

I share your frustration in learning how to drive.

I actually was already learning how to drive through my husband. However, once with my hubby on the other side of the front seat and me on the driver’s seat, I tried to drive. It was at first slow and smooth until I saw a big truck coming. I got so nervous imagining that i might hit my side when we are already near with each other.

I drive the car on the side and stopped and told my husband, I can’t drive.

From then on, I never tried again. Now, whenever I see my batchmate driving her car from our practice, I would feel a little envious that she could drive.

Though, I don’t let her big 4 by 4 car go inside the small rough road going to our neighborhood because I fear that it might not fit and scratch on the small road with both sides of concrete fence. ha ha ha

She too is nervous of trying to let her car go in. So, I would be dropped by the main road and would walk a small distance to our house. ha ha ha

I love coconut food delicacies like the ones you posted here. It is indeed a tree of life with so many uses from its roots to leaves.

I never knew that part “ubod” could be eaten ..i thought you posted a photo of a bamboo shoots but when I googled it it was really ubod..

buko indeed is very useful and deserves to be called “the tree of life” .. we have lots of coconut trees around and just last night I made a buko ice cream.

I think a coconut tree was probably in the Garden of Eden. Eden was a paradise. A coconut is a fruit of paradise. Seems a logical thought. 🙂 I do love coconut!

Yes, I even posted that it’s already summer already, since the past 5 days before today, it was so sunny always. But last night too it rained a bit. Then this morning it was a bit gloomy and it drizzled. But as of now, I can see the sun shining again.

Well, I like it if summer is like this- a rain once in a while. At least, it won’t dry the fields and the plants and will not be so hot.

But as to exercising, I just exercise at home, in our bedroom actually, in the space like a small sala , while my hubby sleeps. No need to go out. I just dance like crazy so all my body will be shaken. I do dancing, some dumb bells exercise and the tummy trimmer. At least, it helps me to lose some unwanted fats, even for a bit. ha ha ha

This day it rains so hard here and thankful for my decision to time out under time because I see dark clouds . I was so afraid . I remember the last months flood in our university when 5,000 were stranded, water height was so high. When i arrived home the rain dropped so hard. I am afraid I will wake up too early tomorrow to avoid walking again in muddy road where the bridge is still on renovation, We feel so sad whenever it rains here,yes it is summer but ket us be thankful that there is rain sometimes to let plants grow and survive.

I hope you can have your usual activity tomorrow.

Very useful article for garden lovers. Especially for those who would want to grow organic vegetable in their own garden. I used to put seeds of leafy vegetables and they used to grow in the garden without much effort similarly chilli, lady’s finger, brinjal and tomato too used to grow easily. Now we are having the season of mango’s and they are growing well and so do we have coconut trees and guava. If one likes to spend time and do gardening it is very good. Gardening also acts as a therapy.

It is very nice and useful to garden.

We do not need to spray pesticides because eventually it will be absorbed by the plant and it will endanger our health. It will also poison the soil. Yes, gardening is a nice activity.

How I like to have veggie garden at home, but we have smaller space in the city unlike in the province.When I was a teenager, I liked to live in the province for I liked to plant fruits and vegetables, but when I graduated in college and acquired a property in the city the house and lot and work here too, I no longer had planted a single veggie and fruit.At home this time grown in the yard two grown ups moringa hehehehe. Every morning, as usual as a Filipino with east breakfast usually fish tinola and we add some moringa leave and tomatoes, onion, that always make our day fulfilled.

Gardens so nice, my teens love it and set lot of hours, plated garden still should be given lots of work and sttnetion and this and that, like spending money for the soil and the plants it selves, but its good thing to enjoy at the end of the day or morning when you wake up hold you cup of hot chocolate and enjoy the view

Gardening is really good, it can relieve you of stress, and produce your own food. But as much as possible, do not use pesticides because it is harmful to the body and to the environment.

It is very important to provide outdoor activities or even indoor games for children. These games will help children confidence in themselves, make them more sociable and not become an introvert. While learning a bicycle is better than a motorcycle as it is safe. Especially if the child is too young. Communication skills will improve a lot and chances are they will learn new languages other than their mother tongue. Which will help them in the future. The article covers most of the important points which need to be covered on the topic appreciate the same.

Why parents are afraid of children going out is the crimes, violence, children who will be troubled by adults, deviant characters in the society. Injuries which the child would get in the course of play which will be a nuisance value for both parents as well as the child. Too much of studies as education system has become such. Medical bills becoming too costly and in many cases unaffordable. All these create and many other issues and parents being overprotective as they have a single child become causes why children are being denied their proper play hours. Thanks for the share.

Thank you Krishna Kumar for your reply.

There are so many factors why parents today tend to be overprotective, and one of them is criminality. There are cases when children are kidnapped, or bullied by other children, or if they are hurt while playing the cost of medication is high, and parents who are working will have to absent from work to look after their child.

In the past, children have more freedom to play outside their homes because it was safer during those days.
