Love…

love

Love is a very difficult word to define, perhaps because its reality approaches spiritual dimensions, which are beyond time and space, and thus, our comprehension. Love remains an unknown phenomenon and it should be one of the most known, because love is the food of the soul.

Love is perhaps more easily described by what it is not. Hate, embarrassment, confusion, jealousy, fear, pain, bitterness, separateness, lust, attachment, aggressiveness, ego-centeredness, indifference, possessiveness, suppression, etc.

Love, like God, peace and other spiritual realities, can be perceived more easily through the effects that it creates. We cannot see the wind, but we can see its affects. Such as the leaves moving, branches swaying, or the sound of air rushing. We know wind exist by its various sole effects. We know there is a creator because we perceive its effect creation itself.

The emotion of love is the same regardless of who you feel it for. You want them to be happy, you accept them as they are, and you appreciate some aspects about them. So if love is the same, why does it feel so different depending on who you love?

The distinctions in the loving experience are apparent. When we look at how we express our love. The emotions are the same, but how we express and the degree in which we express it. Is different depending who we love? You may want to spend more time with friends than your family members. You might enjoy different activities with your co-workers than you do with your spouse.


Love is the one treasure that multiplies by dividing it. It is the one gift that grows bigger the more you take from it. It is the one business in which it pays to be an absolute spend thrift. Be a spend thrift in love. Give it away! Throw it away! Splash it over! Empty your pockets, shake the basket, turn the glass upside down and tomorrow you will have more than ever. If you will step out by faith and talk to someone today and try to make them happy. You’ll fid that if you give love, you’ll get love. There are wonders of love that you yourself can enjoy with some other lonely soul if you try. The more you give, the more you get. If you give and give, you’ll get and get.

Kabuhayan noong panahon ng Kastila

Pinakilala ng mga kastila ang sistemang pamilihan. Ang sistemang pamilihan ay ang pagtatakda ng presyo sa isang bagay o pagkain. Ang sistema ay nagmula sa simpleng sistema ng pagpapalitan ng kalakalan hangang sa napalitan ito ng bagong sistemang ipinakilala ng mga Kastila sa ating mga ninuno noong 1521. At ito ay tinawag na sistemang barter. Dahil sa hindi husto ang kaalaman at hindi nakapag-aral ang mga Filipino noong panahon ng Kastila, nakaranas ng pag-aaubuso at diskriminasyon. Binigyang pabor ng mga Kastila ang mga tao na nagbibigay sa kanila ng benepisyo tulad na lamang ng mga Tsino sapagka't mas malaki ang buwis na kanilang binayaran. Nagkaroon din ng klasipikasyon sa estado ng tao noong panahon ng Kastila. Ang mga Pilipino ay tinawag na indio samantalang mestizo ang mga Pilipinong ang ama ay Tsino at ang ina ay Pilipino. Kung may kabutihan na naidulot ang mga Kastila sa ekonomiya ng Pilipinas, mayroon ding mga suliraning dulot ang sistemang ipinakilala ng mga Kastila.
