DAILY DRAMA
While waiting for the Net Café to open, my attention was focused on the entrance of the Mini Galeria where I was sitting alone on a wooden bench. The entrance was about 8 meters wide. At the center was a circular concrete flower “pot” half full of weeds with some violet blossoms peeping out.
In front of it was parked a red van almost covering the Drug Store on the other side of the road. To the left of the Drug Store was a Rice Store where a young man was patiently waiting for costumers.
It was like a stage setting where activities kept on going. Bus, jeepneys, tricycles and people were passing–by. I saw a big truck delivered several sacks of rice. Nearby was a Barber Shop which was idle at the time. Next to it was a newly opened Lotto outlet.
When the delivery truck left I saw the boy in front of big boxes of rice with different price tags. He was just standing alone staring at nothing. I wondered what that boy was thinking but my curious wondering was quickly interrupted by a boy who came-by dribbling a basketball ball.
I realized I was watching a mini-drama in real life happening right in front of me. Stretching my imagination further I saw so many other small live stages showing their own presentations in different manners. These were all happening simultaneously on every spot on the surface of the earth. The earth was alive and the earth was tired. Other planets must be tired too after existing for so many millions of years. There must be an end to everything but it didn’t mean I was anticipating my end. In fact I was enjoying every bit of what remained.
Ohs! Here comes the Net Café operator. I shall be very busy surfing, chatting and e-mailing… my after breakfast routine to monitor my far away children. The drama must continue not only among planets in our Solar System but also in other galaxies far beyond the endless space we know as the Universe. The infinitesimal cosmic impact of the “big bang” still goes on… when it will stop, God Only Knows.

OIL PULLING THERAPY FOR EVERYONE
OIL PULLING THERAPY
It all started as a forwarded message to me by a friend. I was intrigued so I surfed the internet and ever since I have propagated it to every one I know. It is so simple; all you have to do is swish oil for about twenty minutes before meals. This is best done on waking up in the morning before brushing your teeth.
Sunflower Oil and purified Sesame oil are best although any vegetable oil, as claimed by some, also does wonders. Roasted Sesame oil is not recommended but the purified version is. You are not supposed to swallow the oil. Spit it out after twenty minutes swishing, not gargling. Then clean your mouth with ordinary tap water. It sounds so simple because it really is that simple. In fact it is the simplicity of this healing method that effectively treats various diseases.
According to Dr. Karach who introduced this method of healing in 1992, the healing process is accomplished by the human organism on its own through the aid of its natural healing power. By swishing or moving oil slowly inside the mouth, it mixes thoroughly with saliva which in return activates the enzymes that draws or pulls toxins out of the blood. You will notice that as you keep on swishing the oil gets thinner and white, almost like evaporated milk. If pulling is not enough the oil remains yellow.
Since you are not supposed to swallow the oil there is no danger of any side effect except probably allergy to the oil you are using which could be prevented by simply changing the oil. Swishing oil stimulates the excretory system of the body so that it heals individual or group of cells like in a lymph node or even the more complex organs. Oil swishing prevents intrusive elements like toxins, pathogenic micro organisms such as bacteria and fungi from entering the body.
I am not exaggerating when I say that testimonials from all over the world claim that so many ailments are completely eliminated from the human body such as migraine headache, lung problems like asthma and bronchitis; arterio-thrombosis, leukemia arthritic diseases, neuro-psychological paralysis, eczema and other forms of itchiness, gastro enteritis, heart and kidney diseases, meningitis and hormonal disorders.
The mucous which is a poison that must be removed as well as the toxins and the bacteria are pulled by the oil pulling process. It most of all purifies the taste buds and the entire body system. Dr. Karach warned that symptoms may worsen or maybe a few that you never had before maybe felt but should this happen do not stop Oil Pulling, it is the very sign that your body is healing.
Oil Pulling also prevents growth and increase of cancer cells. It also cures Kidney, Liver, Pancreas, Heart and other diseases of the internal organs. It is not a magic cure but it prevents activities of body intruders like pathogenic micro organism, bacteria, fungi, toxins, etc.
Oil pulling is very cheap; you only buy the oil. It is easy; you simply swish oil in your mouth. It is an effortless form of detoxification. It is completely harmless and most of all it is also effective against stress so you sleep more comfortably and even dream pleasant dream. There is no harm in trying and if you need more information just surf for Oil Pulling Therapy at google.com

LIMPING MY WAY TO CHRISTMAS DAY
LIMPING MY WAY TO CHRISTMAS DAY
Yes, I am still limping as a result of an accident that I incurred recently (Pls. read "The Moral Lesson"). I will not be surprise if I shall still be limping by Christmastime. As I said my left leg was badly traumatized.
Perhaps this is God’s way of reminding me to be a bit humble. For quite sometime I have always been bragging among senior citizens that though I am not taking any medicine I am not experiencing any kind of pain such as that resulting from Rheumatism, Arthritis, etc.
I am not very strict with my diet and I exercise very little aside from walking. Maybe it is my positive mental attitude that really keeps me healthy. I strongly believe in the Principle of Mentalism. The power of the mind is so strong that what we think eventually turns to reality and that is how I always deal with my health.
I am suffering from mild Diabetes however, since I came from a family of Diabetics but it is easily controlled by a mild anti-diabetic. Talks about wounds of diabetics not healing scares me a bit but with the power of my positive thinking plus the application of Oil Pulling Therapy (I will write about this sometime), I am pretty sure my left leg wound will heal completely.
Now I know how it feels to have Arthritic and Rheumatic pains. People afflicted with them exhibit a very special kind of walking that reveals their ailment to one and sundry. In my case although with a mild pain I can still walk straight completely concealing the pain emanating from my traumatized leg.
The accident actually taught me many lessons. First, as my son said I must be careful in whatever I am doing as I am no longer very young. Second, I must practice what I have been telling people to keep my emotions under control. Third, I must not brag around about my health for I am not immune from all ailments, including traumatic accidents that can happen at the most unguarded moment.

THE MORAL LESSON
THE MORAL LESSON
Christmas was just around the corner. The urge to put up Christmas decor was getting stronger and stronger but the conscience was feeling guilty to bring out multi-colored lights and tinsels while the whole world was in crisis.
It was like this during the first Christmas if we remember…but the heavens opened and lights flooded the universe while the angels were singing to welcome the Messiah who was born that day.
I found it not illogical to retrieve old decorative Christmas materials to finally welcome Christmas with joy and hope. I thought it wouldn’t be difficult as It has been my habit to put all Christmas needs at one particular area in our storage room for ease in finding them when needed.
But the constant change of helpers lately in attempt to find a better one also changed the storage routine. Now I couldn’t find the multi-colored lights; the tinsels were not where they should be; Christmas trees, angels , reindeers, santas and even the Manger characters were nowhere to be found.
I was greatly upset that when I finally found the twinkling set of angels, stars and Christmas trees I hurriedly started hanging them while the helpers were still trying to find the other items. I was in that high-tempered mood when I climbed a round table in attempt to reach the hook to hang the angel. Because I was a bit irritated I didn’t realize that the foot of the round table was centrally located so that when I stepped on one end it immediately tilted and faster than the Rudolf’s sleigh the table tumbled down in loud crackling sound bringing with it the glass flower base, the big brass candle holder the thick glass on top of it and of course the whole of me.
I felt pains here and there all over my body and after a while I noticed a strong oozing of blood down my left leg. I didn’t know what actually hit me but I probably hit the concrete side of the terrace that badly wounded my left leg.
It was now a few days ago and I was still limping, hopingly not until Christmastime. I told my experience to my children abroad and my youngest son in Australia told me the moral lesson. “Be careful in what ever you are doing… you are not very young anymore”.

BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL
BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL
Black, I insist, is beautiful but someone commented that though it is beautiful it symbolizes darkness. We always associate darkness with evil or something negative since it is actually the absence of light but let us not forget that it is only during dark, dark night that we can really appreciate the stars.
Darkness is signified by black which scientifically is the absence of all colors. When all colors are gone we see nothing and when we see nothing we, literally is groping in the dark. However, it is when we see nothing that our creative minds see beautiful color-combinations in its full grandeur.
Love is the positive emotional counterpart of Light or of all the colors that combined to create white. White on the other hand is the presence of all colors. When all colors are active there is more glare that is why we speak of ‘blinding bright ness’ if not ‘whit e lies’.
Come to think of it… White represents Light and Light symbolizes Love but what happens when love is lost? What positive thing can we do in blackness or in the midst of the Dark? If Love is not enough, let us make use of Hate (or black or dark).
We are against Terrorism, let us hate the Terrorist. We oppose Drug Addiction; let us hate the Drug Addicts. We are afraid of ailments, let us hate diseases. These are only some of the negative realities that we have to face in life. By hating what we cannot love we create a double negative that turns thing to positive.
As I mentioned in the beginning, black is beautiful, darkness is challenging, hatred is sometimes necessary in order to convert nothing into something and from that something all good things may eventually come out.
We need the darkness of the night to appreciate and understand fully the twinkling of the stars. Who knows? In the huge black hole, billions of light years in diameter, existing in the vast universe among galaxies and quasars may yet lie hidden the most significant mystery that God reserves for us to discover…

BLACK AND WHITE
BLACK AND WHITE
Now the White House in America will be occupied by a Black man. There shall be many Black Propaganda and many shall be Blacklisted. Blackmail shall be a common practice and many shall even resort to Black Magic.
For the gamblers they shall continue enjoying Black Coffee while playing Black Jack with their ladies who shall be happy eating Blackberry ice cream. Who cares if there is Blackout all over, let us all rejoice for Black is forever Beautiful.
