Out To Win The Lottery And A Case

The Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office's Grand Lotto 6/55 remains elusive and the jackpot prize could reach as much as PHP685,000,000.00 or US$15,438,359.730 in the next draw (Saturday night). I'm crossing my fingers. I'm praying hard.

If and when I win this lottery, I wonder what I will do with more than half a billion pesos... I dare not ask my kids. LOL!

If you're wondering why I have been a little scarce lately, let's just say I have to shift from creative mentality to a legalese mindset in order to finish a very important pleading. Work...Deadline...Work...

Unfortunately, that's poetry hiatus for me. I'm going through some sort of confusion right now as far as my writing skills (if any) and style are concerned. I am leading a "double writing life," you see. I hope you all understand.

To my friends in the US, I wish you all "Happy Thanksgiving!"

To everyone, have a happy weekend!

The Magic Within

n
o 

spell or
potion  or
chant can
bring romance

into your

life

b
u
t
dreams do come true
and true love happens
let go of painful past
and open your heart
love begins when you
allow yourself to live
free of restraint or 

rules dictated upon

you by other people

it is only when you

learn to love, honor

and cherish yourself

that the magical sparkle

of love truly glistens

it is only then that

your own inner light

shall shine brightly

opening up yourself 

to a beautiful and 

powerful connection 

with another human 

............being.............

"Loving yourself is the best way to learn how to love."

"There's a spark of magic in your eyes
Candyland appears each time you smile
Never thought that fairy tales came true
But they come true when I'm near you

You're a genie in disguise
Full of wonder and surprise and...

 Betcha by golly wow
You're the one that I've been waiting for... forever
And ever will my love for you keep growing strong
Keep growing strong...."

This week's theme: Accident(s)

whether good or bad

things happen for a reason

you'll figure out soon

 _____________

t'was no accident

that two peoples' paths have crossed

they were meant to meet

 _____________ 

no such thing as "chance"

seek what you truly desire

and work hard for it

_____________ 

t'was no accident

that one achieved excellence

choice, not chance, sealed fate

Musical Monday... What Moves You?

I just got back from my two-weeks-break and my heart is so full of love and gratitude right now. This song says it all...

Thanks To You by Tyler Collins

Thank you...
For teaching me how to live
Putting things in perspective
Teaching me how to give
And how to take...

Thanks to you!

Bye For Now

sweet kisses blown

tearful goodbyes thrown

deep tinge of pain

eased by covenant

evanescent time and space

bridged by two hearts as one

reunion is reckoned

forever beckons
