    Sometimes I wonder what my cats think of me. I wonder if they judge me or if they actually do love me and not just because I feed them.

    Treathyl FOX wrote a new post, Are You From Royal Blood? 8 years, 2 months ago

    Did I descend from royalty? Eh! Probably not!
     
     
    My dad never made a big deal about his last name. In fact, when he came to America, he even changed the spelling of his last name. When I got older, found out t […]

    • I love this article. My dads side of the family is from royal blood. I never actually took the time to look and go back far enough to see who we were related to. But I know its royalty.

    • I agree with the saying. The Royal Blood is Royal. One may be poor by now but he never goes begging on the street. I have seen many such personalities. The way they move, the way they select friends, and the way they respond to others will definitely make them distinct.

      That is why people ask about the Genealogy. It is the foundation. If the blood is not Royal he will be more selfish and businessman-like person. He never thinks about others.

      The person with Royal blood always desires to share the good, bad, and the worse with others. He will be a leader. He lives for others and not for himself. They will have dynamic quality. He takes the lead in every aspect of the society. The society needs and identifies them wherever they are. They need not approach anybody for anything.

      There is nothing wrong feeling proud of having the Royal Blood

      • Sorry. I respectfully disagree with you, sir. I don’t think there is any such thing as “royal blood”. All blood is the same. We call people “royals” who are kings and queens. But who decided they should a king or a queen? They either made themselves a king or a queen OR somebody or some group of people decided they should be king or queen. But they have the same blood as everybody else. How on earth can you possibly say “The person with Royal blood always desires to share the good, bad, and the worse with others.”? If they want to share the “good”, that’s fine. But they can keep the “bad and the worse”. Why share that with me? I don’t want it!! If I had it, I wouldn’t even try to share it. People would probably throw it back in my face! That’s if they run me out of town first!! 🙁

        “The Royal Blood is Royal”. Who said that anyway??

    • Maybe yes I have a royal blood which is maharlika ( during old times, maharlika is what they call to the group of people in higher category like the king which we call datu), but maybe no also, I’m just a timmawa (a category of people which belong to worker or helper). My father side was just an ordinary people in Ilocos while my mother side is said to have bloodline to Spaniards who colonized Philippines for 333 years.

      • I’m not sure that the site where I found the article can really help people trace their roots if they are not of European descent. But I guess if your have records in your country and a way to test your DNA you could know for sure.

    • I don’t like to trace my forebears or my lineage. I am afraid if I have a royal blood. It is impossible for me to get back to those ancestries. Personally, I know I was born to my royal parents as I consider them. They are indeed a royal individual for me. They did their best to rear me up, to educate and to give the bright future which I am enjoying right. I know that is the royal blood I am proud of. The royal blood of my loving and caring parents.

      • Now we’re talking! This is exactly how I feel. I grew up in low income housing and we lived on welfare. But my mom and dad were there for me. They gave wise advice and encouraged me to respect others, obey the law, and strive to live a peaceful life. I have read stories and seen documentaries about so-called royals that did things to their children, their own flesh and blood, that not even animals would do! Quite often the child of royal descent is not even raised by his or her parents. They are just given a lot of things, left to a caretaker not even related to them, and told that one day he or she will reign. When I read or hear the story of a king that gave up his throne, it makes me wonder: ‘Did they figure out what real living is all about and decide to go live their life before it was too late for them to enjoy it?’

    • Interesting blog. Thanks for sharing…never know when my curiosity will pop up and lead me over the horizon.

    • Well, someone from our ancestors were, way back in early 1800s members of a king’s court- so in that way I have some referential connection here.

    • I believe bit in any royal blood because there has been no royal blood on earth because royal blood belong to the prophets family and besides prophets’ families there is no royal blood on earth. It is my point of view.

      ccording to a new study of unique last names from around the world, moving in or out of the upper class doesn’t take just a few generations — it takes centuries.

      Measuring not just income and wealth but also occupation, education, and longevity, researchers found that upper-class families took 300 to 450 years before their scions fell back into the middle class. Throughout society, poor families, taken as a whole, took an equal amount of time — 10 to 15 generations — to work their way up into the middle class.

      In England these name are royal as In England, those aristocratic names included Atthill, Bunduck, Balfour, Bramston, Cheslyn, and Conyngham.

    • Royal blood is my royal family, that is the royal to me, royal is just word means nothing but respect to the older people like parents and grandparents, that is what royal means and I am so proud of them and my family that I am raising now, we all proud of who we are and we are royal in our humble way.

    Oh wow, so this explains why some members got very high views and some few honest users got only 1 to 5 views with their post. Its good the tinycent now are aware of this situation. Lots of people are writing but some are really dismayed because of low views. I just hope all will be fair so the distribution of blessings is equal.

    Who wants some chocolate? What, chocolates are out of stock? Why, why there is no chocolate? No cocoa because there are no cacao trees bearing fruits.

    • Is it so important for the Philippines? They can increase their Agricultural Products which are useful for the people and to the country.

      They can get many crops that can be taken up. But, insisting only on the production and development of Cocoa Crop may perhaps be not correct.

      • I have learned that planting cacao is not as easy as 1+1=2. Cacao need the right technology and strategy so it would bear more fruits. This also include to the fact that cacao don’t just bear fruit anywhere but it prefer the hilly part of the region. The tree should also have more than 50 fruits and not just 3 fruits. All of this need attention from the farmer and with the help of agricultural technologist. If not, goodbye chocolates.

    SuperD wrote a new post, Though Shall Not Kill – 5th laws in the Ten Commandments – Bible 8 years, 2 months ago

    “Though Shall Not Kill”, this is the 5th laws in the Ten Commandments in the bible which the Christian religiously follow. Everybody are afraid to take one’s life because they believe the soul will be punis […]

    • In following the 5th law of the 10 commandments is subjective. You may have the reason to kill that is to defend yourself from being killed. But we talk about the Bible which is the source of this law, “Thou shalt not kill” is not followed in toto. I am not reasoning out that God is unfair and unbelievable for I know Him that He is the Almighty, the great Providence, and everything comes from Him. There were instances in the Bible that God had caused the killings of the sinful people. He destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. He caused the great flood in the time of Noah. He killed the son of the Pharaoh. Killings were common among the Biblical times and God knows it. So what’s your position now?

      • Yes it is subjective, but as you see, the proliferation of killing is not just because killer defend themselves. You see, there’s even no suspect for the killing in our country. So, the subject itself cannot reason the incident. There must be a reason why you kill and there must be a suspect. And not just killing like a chicken eating your vegetable in your garden.

      • Yes it’s true God doesn’t allow killings to take place just like that just like you have said in th3 bible God ordained for killings to happen for a particular reason for his glory to show. But I’m this case there are people being killed innocently in the name of curbing drugs but I guess that’s not the right way to go.

    • It speaks of total indiscipline prevailing in the Philippines.

      This is an attack against the pushers and other drug peddlers. The uneducated people are not getting jobs and they are becoming pushers as stated in your article is not acceptable. It is only during Mr. Dutete’s period an action has been initiated against these illegal activities. Earlier, the previous presidents have not taken any stringent action against these peddlers.They simply closed their eyes to these activities. The earlier President has left this problem to the incoming President
      When Mr. Duterte took up charge he immediately initiated action against them which should be appreciated internationally.

      you are also accepting that stringent action should be taken against these pushers but feeling sorry for the innocents being killed in the operations. If this is the real issue this can be reduced to the minimum by finding suitable solutions and taking up a discussion with all the parties. Sometimes, the opposition parties make a hue and cry when such incidents take place. This is the worst situation prevailing not only in your country but also with every country in the world. This must be given a stop. It is only a mud sledging activity which hampers the development of any country.

      The U.S also has experienced such incidents. They took up drone strikes in Ukraine and other places and when the people revolt the opposition parties support such revolts and bring down the Government in power.

      Killing three thousand people can not take place in a night. If such incident has occurred the other parties should bring it to the notice fo the Government and suggest remedial measures. They kept quiet for all these days. When the figure has reached a substantial level they are making an issue out of it. They should also suggest remedial measures to Mr Duterte instead of making protests and demonstrations in the streets.

      • Killing 1,000 drug pushers should already scared the 2,000 other. Sometimes, what saddens me is the fact the police officers is like being forced to do so because they need to report it in their accomplishment. And accomplishment is not just by turning them into good person but there should be a drug pusher killed that should intimidate other drug personalities.

        Why not change some strategies and programs now. Instead of killing them now, give them livelihood to support their families, bring them to rehabilitation center for their transformation. Lift up their spirit instead of demoralizing and killing, especially the young people.

    • Okay fine we may agree with you at some point that the uneducated ar3 being pushed because of poverty to do this kinds of jobs, but where is th3 government in all of this? Are they really for the idea of getting hold of the manufacturer’s of this drugs or are they in it themselves that’s the problem. I have watched this lady’s story in he need and found out that she had been removed from the government. Now it’s really up to the people of Philippines to decide whether they want to change their lives and country or not by refusing to work for this kinds of people

    • Yes tenth commandment is that you will not kill any man but in all countries this law has been crushed mercilessly and in this act all the country politicians are on the front line I think they do not believe in God and his decrees and they lost faith in God fear of God.

      “You shall not covet” means that we should banish our desires for whatever does not belong to us. Never having enough money is regarded as a symptom of the love of money. Obedience to the tenth commandment requires that envy be banished from the human heart.

      Thou shalt not kill (LXX; οὐ φονεύσεις), You shall not murder (Hebrew לֹא תִּרְצָח lo tirṣaḥ) or You shall not kill (KJV), is a moral imperative included as one of the Ten Commandments in the Torah, specifically Exodus 20:13 and Deuteronomy 5:17.

      Simply stated, the sixth of the Ten Commandments forbids the unjustified taking of a human life. However, the commandment itself has a couple of interesting elements that bear mentioning.

      First and foremost, different Bible translations give the appearance of different meanings, and there is potential for misunderstanding the actual meaning of the verse. Second, man was never created for the act of murdering another, and there needs to be an explanation for such a violent and final act towards another human being.

      Third, because of the translational challenge, we need to understand the difference between “murder” and “killing.” And last but not least, how does God view murder? To God, murder is not just physical in nature but also the condition of one’s heart towards another.
