Rants The Sun, The Moon, And The Truth 10:40 PM Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth." -Buddha Everyone lies, including me. As the song goes, "Honesty is such a lonely word. Everyone is so untrue." Still, it hurts like a mother when you're the one being lied to. Especially when the person would rather die than tell you the truth, and you know you did nothing to deserve it. I think it's the thought that you don't even matter to know the truth that hurts the most. It's discrediting. It's condescending. It makes you regret all the lies you told before as karma's acting like an unforgiving bitch to you. Also makes you angry at yourself for trusting too much. Oh, well. Life's like that. I guess we all need to remember to think about what our words can do to our lives, and other people's lives before we say anything. Words are potent indeed. It can make or break us. The Sun, The Moon, And The Truth Lies, no matter how sugar coated they may be will always always always break the liar and the person being lied to. I don't know why we have to build a web of lies but I think, desperation or ego sometimes get in the way that you choose lying over telling the truth. Maybe you want to protect the other person's feelings, or you just want to get away with something without being a d*ckhole. No matter what your intentions are, the end still does not justify the means. Whichever angle you try to look at it, it's still ugly. It's still unfair to the persons involved. It still destroys what has been built. One lie can change everything else, especially the way other people see you. Funny thing about the truth is that you can run from it, you can hide from it but, you can never escape it. It will always come out. It's like the universe put a default button to it that no law or adjustment can ever hide it. No lie can ever erase it. No one can ever change it. No matter how hard you try to convince other people, including yourself, the truth will find a way to reveal itself...always. Amazing! It's like the Law of Gravity. It's like the sun and the moon. No matter how cloudy it gets, it's just there and it will come out. It cannot be hidden forever. The funny thing about lying is watching the liar's reactions. It can be really entertaining. He seems convincing at first, fighting for what he seems to believe in but eventually crumbles before your eyes. He avoids you like a plague and eventually shuts his mouth. See, it's tiring to defend what's not true. You have to constantly think about new ideas, new reasons, new ways to convince people. You become inconsistent until you can't keep up with yourself. You forget where you've started, where you left off and you don't know when and where to end. It's actually fun to observe how the liar loses his power when the truth finally unveils itself. Ultimately, no lie can ever overshadow the truth. But the best thing about telling and knowing the truth is that it sets you free.

Rants Never Underestimate A Woman's Ability To Find Things Out 11:12 PM A woman's intuition. It's uncanny.No one escapes it. When she spies on someone, she shames Sherlock Holmes. She can put two and two together by listening to random conversations, reading comments and tweets, and browsing tagged photos. She can figure things out from the smallest details you give her.The lilt in your voice. The faintest flicker in your eyes. The one piece of information that doesn't seem to fit the puzzle.They all add up to a woman's brilliant mind.So, never ever underestimate a woman's ability to find things out. She's always one step ahead of you.You're only making a fool of yourself if you think you'll outsmart her. Photo: Pinterest
Rants Reaction On Cyber Crime Law 11:14 PM If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear. -George Orwell I don't want to write about something I don't fully understand. I honestly haven't read the article yet as whenever I click the link there's an error. Sabotage? Maybe. Do I go to jail with that presumption? Well, I'm out of the "territory" so I assume I'm safe. Disclaimer: What you will read here is just according to my limited knowledge of the law and my response to it. Reaction on Cyber Crime Law So what are the grounds? With the number of Filipinos who are actively using Facebook and other social networking sites, how can the government keep track? What is prohibited? What is the penalty for such crime? Not sure. But there's one thing I know; the government is trying to distract the Philippines again from the real issue. Every time something serious comes up, expect another attention-grabbing issue that will follow. Something of less importance as compared to the main problem. It's like a pattern. We're all aware of it but instead of focusing on the main issue, we let the media and the government distract us. Nagpapauto na lang. I'm not a fan of news or T.V. so I'm not that aware. My only source is Facebook and you can't believe everything you read. All I know is that a few weeks ago, pro and anti RH Bill are posting photos and statuses one after the other on their walls and now, this. Did I miss anything? I'm a little passive so when I've read about the news, I didn't react immediately. My first thought was just, "Sigh. Who's idea is this this time?". Do we really need to waste time tracking statuses, photos, blogs, likes and comments (if the last two are really included)? So how about poverty? What say you? Will this cyber crime really solve our problem? Is everyone even aware what the main problem of the country is to begin with? Will this make us more progressive? They say, you'll know what solution to take if you know what your problem is. So my dear countrymen, have you yet figured out what is the root cause of all these chaos? Or are we turning a blind eye again and sweeping the real issue under the rug like we always do? Diyan tayo magaling. Instead of keeping ourselves busy impeding freedom of speech, why don't we just think of ways that can help eliminate the real problem? This sounds familiar. People busy scrutinizing another, searching for flaws but keeps on ignoring their own? Do we not see them everyday? These are the big time power trippers. Since hindi ma solve ang issue sa buhay, maghanap ng issue ng iba. Mas madali nga naman yun. Well, they say if you face a challenge don't react, rather respond. Let's fight for our freedom of speech. But let's not forget to attend to what really matters. If there's one thing you think we should change in our country that will get us out of our situation, what would it be? Will this cyber crime hullabaloo save the starving children in the streets? Will it shelter the countless homeless family? Will it stop the flood when another storm visit our territory? C'mon. Akala ko ba magaling ang Pinoy? That's all I have to say for now. Is that police siren I'm hearing outside? Damn. Photo credit: Digitalmoz Hey, did you find this post helpful or entertaining?
