Quotes For Valentines Day

2009-02-14T06:07:00.004Z

Hello everyone Happy Valentines Day. I hope you are happy today and I know there so much love in the air today. I will share you a love quotes from the Bible:

->And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment, because in this world we are like him. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. We love because he first loved us. 1 John 4:16-19

->For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38-39

->If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
1 Corinthians 13:1-13

Quotes for a Loving Heart

2009-01-18T16:43:00.002Z

Through the ages, many have tried to define that ethereal, magical notion of love. Mere words can seem inadequate, but often they're all we have to put voice to our deepest feelings and yearnings.

To turn your heart to thoughts of love, we've turned to some of the wisest spiritual teachers and gathered 10 quotes that celebrate love--in all of its beautiful complexity.

1. "You yourself, as much as anybody in the universe, deserve your love and affection."
The Buddha

2. "When two love each other, the very angels leave heaven to visit their home and sing for joy." Brahman proverb

3. "This world is nothing but a school of love; our relationships with our husband or wife, with our children and parents, with our friends and relatives are the university in which we are meant to learn what love and devotion truly are."
Swami Muktananda

4. "From every human being there rises a light that reaches straight to heaven, and when two souls that are destined to be together find each other, the streams of light flow together and a single brighter light goes forth from that united being."
Ba'al Shem Tov

5. "Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it." Rumi

6. "You may try a hundred things, but love alone will release you from yourself. So never flee from love--not even from love in an earthly guise--for it is a preparation for the supreme Truth." Yiddish Saying

7. "Do not waste time bothering whether you 'love' your neighbor; act as if you did. As soon as we do this we find one of the great secrets. When you are behaving as if you loved someone you will presently come to love him." C.S. Lewis

8. "Love never claims, it ever gives; love never suffers, never resents; never revenges itself. Where there is love there is life; hatred leads to destruction."
Mahatma Ghandi

9. "If our love is only a will to possess, it is not love. If we only think of ourselves, if we know only our own needs and ignore the needs of the other person, we cannot love." Thich Nhat Hanh

10. "Bearing and nurturing, Creating but not owning, Giving without demanding,
Controlling without authority, This is love." Tao Te Ching, Chapter 10

12 Ways to Let Go of Past Loves

2009-01-10T21:08:00.002Z

There are times that we ourselves cannot let go the past but we need to move on our lives and it is better for you. Here the ways to let go of the past loves.

1. Get Real About What Was
We can get relief from our nostalgia for a passionate love by remembering the intensity of the memory does not hold some great truth about the relationship’s sacredness. Remember, what fueled the attraction may not have been love, but your soul’s desire to heal the past.

2. Purge the Merge-Urge

3. Are You Romanticizing?
Brain scientists now recognize that nearly 20 percent of us suffer from “complicated grief.” According Rob Stein of the Washington Post, “One of the hallmarks of complicated grief is a persistent sense of longing for the lost one and a tendency to conjure up reveries of that person.”

4. There’s No Such Thing As One and Only

5. This Is Me, Free!
Visualize yourself as free without requiring that you know how that will be accomplished. Just imagine you have already arrived at a place in the future where you are. Imagine yourself saying to a friend, “Oh my gosh, I haven’t thought about x in years!” Absorb how fantastic you’ll feel, how happy and energized, and say thank you for that.

6. Your Brain Speaks Body Language
Your brain believes your body, sort of a reverse of the placebo affect. You begin to feel free of the past when you act free of the past!

7. Turn to Creativity
One of the best balms for emotional wounds is creativity, which is different from staying busy. Doing something creative, whether it is writing, drawing, composing lyrics, changing your hairstyle, planting a garden, thinking of a great gift, or redecorating a room, connects you to yourself and a power greater than yourself. Doing something kind for someone else is also a good idea but let’s face it, you can brood the entire time you are doing a good deed. Creativity is deeply engaging. It fills you from the inside out.

8. Read it Right

9. Exercise to Exorcise
Go to the gym regularly, or go for a run. Regular exercise keeps your endorphin levels high and keeps you from falling into melancholy memories. (This is a place where you can use music, upbeat and invigorating.)

10. Shut the Door on the Uninvited Guest
Practice separating your “self” from your “thoughts.” It does not matter whether or not your thought is “true.” It only matters whether the thought interferes with your happiness.

11. Disarm with Charm

12. Swap Melodrama for Goofy — Literally

13. Find Freedom Today

Happy New Year!

2009-01-01T18:59:00.004Z

Hello to all my readers and visitors I am sorry if I did not update this blog all the time because I am busy with gother things especially I have also many blogs.

God's Love and Ours

2008-12-30T21:15:00.001Z

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son[a] into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for[b] our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

4 Dating Rules That Stand The Test of Time

2008-12-29T12:59:00.002Z

The logistics of dating may have changed and evolved over the years, but regardless of your generation, we believe that some dating rules still stand the test of time. So let us be your date doctor when it comes to entering and surviving the dating scene.

Here are the 4 dating rules:

1. Keep your Standards High but Stay Realistic
Does this sound like a contradiction? It doesn’t have to. The dating scene can be difficult and can become disillusioning after you’re in it for awhile, but you should never settle for anything just because you’re tired of being single. Everyone should have basic standards they stick to, and those standards should never be compromised. Not every date has to end up with a love match.

2. Give Them a Chase
This rule applies to both sexes, even though men most often tend to take the role of the chaser. When you first start dating someone, you don’t have to spend every waking hour with them. Take some time apart. Not always being available builds mystery and anticipation, and keeps them wanting more. When they call for a date, tell them you already have plans. If they really want to pursue you, they’ll keep trying. And don’t wait around for their phone call. Being active and busy is attractive, so keep your social calendar filled, and “secretly” keep a day open for them.

3. Give Them a Chance
You never know when you’ll meet the woman or man of your dreams, and most of the time the circumstances won’t be what you’ve always pictured. It also might not be love at first sight, so keep an open mind! When it comes to being set up on a blind date, go for it! The only reason you should ever politely refuse being set up is if the same person keeps setting you up with people who are just not your type.

4. While on a Date
There’s no doubt about it – first dates can be very nerve-wracking, even for the most experienced dater or most confident of people. Often times, nerves get in the way of being yourself, which then gets in the way of the other person really getting to know you for you. Nerves can also compromise your ability to think clearly when it comes to etiquette in general.

Date at Your Own Risk - 7 Guy Types to Avoid

2008-12-14T14:16:00.004Z

Now in our new generations many woman suffered from bad relationship and suffered pain. I believe we should be watchful ladies for this so that you can obtain a great relationship just like mine and those who have a successful relations. Here are the types of guys you should avoid to date this is come from Norine Dworkin-McDaniel at Lifescript.com.
1. Mr. Perennial Bachelor
***How he’ll lure you in: Ask about his perpetual bachelorhood, and he’ll tell you that he just hasn’t found the right woman yet. The unspoken suggestion is that you could be her. But dating Mr. Perennial Bachelor is a fool’s journey because there is no right woman… and there never will be. “Women always think I’ll be the one,” says Los Angeles-based psychotherapist Stacy Kaiser. “But if no one has been right, you probably won’t be either.”
***Spot him before you’re hooked: He’s not inclined to introduce you to his friends or family, an indication that he’s in no hurry to fully integrate you into his life. But the biggest giveaway is that his last significant relationship was back in college, and every relationship since has lasted just a few months – at most. Around the time you’re expecting your relationship to shift into serious, he’s putting it in reverse. As relationship coach Joyce Morley-Ball (aka Dr. Joyce) says, “If a man hasn’t gotten married by the time he’s 50, he’s probably not going to.”

2. Mr. Marry-Go-Round
***How he’ll lure you in: He’s a virtuoso romancer, so dating him is like being on a permanent honeymoon. Plus, the fact that he’s been married before suggests that he’s not afraid to make that kind of commitment. If you’ve been dating men who can’t even whisper the “M” word, someone who’s practically sprinting down the aisle and introducing you as the future Mrs. So-And-So is certainly seductive.
***Spot him before you’re hooked: Find out exactly how many times he’s been married. If he’ll soon outpace Liz Taylor – and his brides are getting younger – that should give you pause. “If he’s been married two or three or four times, there’s a good chance that he could be married two or three or four more times,” Kaiser says.

3. Mr. No-Money Bags
***How he’ll lure you in: He’ll play on your natural affinity for nurturing and caretaking. It’s like stumbling onto a beautiful, crumbling Victorian house: You see past the sagging floors and peeling paint and envision how magnificent it could be. You figure a little “investment” will pay off big for both of you. Besides, what’s a little money when it’s the man of your dreams?
***Spot him before you’re hooked: Whenever it’s time to pay, his wallet is conveniently AWOL – it’s in his other pants, he left it at home, he’s short on cash until he gets paid. Initially, it might seem reasonable to float him a little extra. But eventually his handout requests will get larger and larger until one day you may find yourself buying him a car, co-signing on a loan or making a down payment on a house. He’ll try to convince you that “it’s for us,” but as Simmons points out, you’ll be the one on the financial hook. When things go south, not only will he break your heart, but he’ll put you deep in debt and tank your credit.

4. Mr. Mama’s Boy
***How he’ll lure you in: You figure that any man who loves his mother will know how to treat a woman right. “If you’ve been involved with guys who have been great in romancing you but have not had an emotional connection and then you run into a guy who knows and cares about how women feel, that can be really attractive,” Rogers says.
***Spot him before you’re hooked: He compares you to his mother – and you come up short every time. The real test may come around Valentine’s Day: If you’re alone with a box of chocolates because he’s taken Mom out for a candlelit dinner, cut him loose. “At the most intimate level of his heart, he still loves Mom as much or more than you,” Rogers says.

5. Mr. Peter Pan
***How he’ll lure you in: His spontaneity and sense of adventure bring out the kid in you. He’s the one who convinces you to go parasailing in Cancun or ditch work for an afternoon at the ball park.
***Spot him before you’re hooked: He’s managed to dodge major responsibilities. Although by now his buddies are entrenched with mortgages, marriages, even babies, he’s still footloose. When it comes to dating, “let’s keep things light” is this guy’s mantra. Peter Pans eventually do grow up – into perennial bachelors.

6. Mr. Egomaniac
***How he’ll lure you in: His confidence is irresistible. “He’s got that Clint Eastwood, John Wayne, macho inner strength that’s really appealing,” Rogers says.
***Spot him before you’re hooked: He never tires of talking about himself or the things he’s interested in. Except there’s no give and take, just him lecturing. “He doesn’t care what you have to say,” Rogers says. “He may listen, but only long enough to prepare for his next persuasive statement.”

7. Mr. Control Freak
***How he’ll lure you in: All this attention is certainly flattering. After all, he must really love you if he’s so concerned about you, takes such care of you and wants to be with you all the time, right?
Spot him before you’re hooked: He insists on orchestrating all your dates and tells you how to dress or act around his friends. Even if you’ve only been on a few dates, he phones frequently and has memorized your schedule. He’s suspicious of any relationship you have with any other guy. He expects you to agree with him, and if you don’t, he tries to persuade you you’re wrong. Run – don’t walk – away.

The Most Beautiful Heart

2008-12-12T18:52:00.004Z

One day a young man was standing in the middle of the town proclaiming that he had the most beautiful heart in the whole valley. A large crowd gathered and they all admired his heart for it was perfect. There was not a mark or a flaw in it. Yes, they all agreed it truly was the most beautiful heart they had ever seen. The young man was very proud and boasted more loudly about his beautiful heart.
Suddenly, an old man man appeared at the front of the crowd and said, "Why, your heart is not nearly as beautiful as mine."
The crowd and the young man looked at the old man's heart. It was beating strongly but full of scars; it had places where pieces had been removed and other pieces put in, but they didn't fit in quite right and there were several jagged edges. In fact, in some places there were deep gouges where whole pieces were missing.
The young man looked at the old man's heart and saw its state and laughed.
"You must be joking," he said. "Compare your heart with mine. Mine is perfect and yours is a mess of scars and tears."
"Yes," said the old man, "yours is perfect looking but I would never trade with you. You see, every scar represents a person to whom I have given my love. I tear out a piece of my heart and give it to them, and often they give me a piece of their heart which fits into the empty place in my heart, but because the pieces aren't exact, I have some rough edges, which I cherish because they remind me of the love we shared. Sometimes I have given pieces of my heart away, and the other person hasn't returned a piece of his heart to me. these are the empty gouges. Giving love is taking a chance.Although these gouges are painful, they stay open, reminding me of the love I have for these people too, and I hope some day they my return and fill the space I have waiting. So now do you see what true beauty is?"
The young man stood silently with tears running down his cheeks. He walked up to the old man, reached into his perfect young and beautiful heart, and ripped a piece out. He offered it to the old man with trembling hands.
The old man took his offering placed it in his heart and then took a piece from his old scarred heart and placed it in the wound in the young man's heart. It fit, but not perfectly, as there were some jagged edges. The young man looked at his heart, not perfect any more but more beautiful than ever, since love from the old man's heart flowed into his. They embraced and walked away side by side.

6 Reasons Why Men Cheat Is He Being Unfaithful to You?

2008-12-10T04:11:00.003Z

Why you cheat or shall I say why some men cheat? Maybe there are many reasons why. So read what it is maybe you can help somebody solve their problem.
1. She ain’t what she used to be.
*Like Adam, the typical man can’t resist the temptation of riper fruit, especially if the woman in his life has let herself go.

2. No one loves a ball buster.

3. The thrill of it all.

4. Blame it on wanderlust.
*Often, married men who cheat can’t quite explain their motivation. They just find themselves compelled to bust out of their day-to-day routine in search of something new. It’s a primitive instinct that dates back to their role as hunter and gatherer – only this time, they’re hunting and gathering new women.

5. It’s biology, baby.
Okay, women are going to find this theory a tad hard to swallow, but it seems the male urge to get into someone else’s jeans is in their genes.

6. It's just fleshy...

*"If a guy is in a committed, monogamous relationship, he should ask himself one question before he cheats: Is it worth it? For more info click here

Thanksgiving Poem For You

2008-11-19T17:01:00.003Z

Love is Never Silent

A loving heart, a gentle smile,
a warm and tender touch,
We give so many things in life
but nothing means as much.

A little inspiration
when someone loses hope,
A kind word of encouragement
when they no longer seem to cope.

A simple phrase, "I love you"
when no one else is there,
Taking hold onto a hand
in a little heartfelt prayer.Love Is Never Silent,
It has so much to say,
And it is our greatest blessing
when we give it all away.

I am so Thankful for You
and I love you every day!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING.....

What Qualities Why A Man Will Like You?

2008-10-23T15:58:00.004Z

Last night i chatted a friend from Texas and we talked about qualities why a man will like you. In that question i ask hubby about why he likes me. Before he answered that question he told me the story when we first met in Manila. When he first saw me in the airport walking and smiling to him he instantly in his mind said she is the girl I want to marry. I laughed when i heard that and the more he fall in love to me when we are in the taxi. That was my first time riding in a plane so I am a bit tired so i fall asleep in his chest. He said i am sweet why i laid my head to his chest. hehhehe he is funny really. Then he look at me answering my question i like you and i love you because you have the qualities that other women don't have. According to hubby I am a nice person, sweet, loving, caring, understanding, generous and especially I love God. I felt shy when he told me that because in my heart i don't deserve that maybe because he love's he told that to me. I am wondering if how about other men what is the qualities they want for a woman? Is it sexy bodies i don't have that, tall oh no i am short, blue eyes yay! i have only brown eyes, fair skin oh i have brown skin, long nose hhehe i have a short nose just for breathing ahha. Any you can share if what's your boyfriend, hubby, or sweetheart said about you here....

Oh How I love thee

2008-10-16T10:17:00.001Z

If there's one thing that I truly love,
One thing that I desire -
It's my lovely computer,
That sets my heart on fire!

Forget a Mother-in-Law,
It's got the perfect motherboard!
It caters to my every whim,
And makes me feel adored!

It never seems to gets jealous,
Even when I look at handsome men;
In fact, my wonderful computer
Helps me look for pics of them!

I can go shopping with it,
Whenever I so choose;
Even when most stores are closed,
The internet we'll cruise!

It's got the greatest memory,
It never forgets a thing!
Oh yes, the desk chair is my throne,
And my computer is my king!

It truly is so good to me,
I hold it in such high regard;
For I control when it's turned on!
And its drive is always hard!

10 Reasons I Marry My Hubby

2008-08-20T20:21:00.002Z

Thank you Pinaylovestories for this and i want to share my answers of different questions...

1.) Because they want an easy way out.
They feel hopeless living in the
Philippines that's why they just want
to get the heck outta there.

Ans. I did not marry my hubby so i can live here in US but i marry him because of my love. If you love someone wherever they are you are there also.

2.) Because they are ugly. Filipino
men tend to have higher standards when
it comes to beauty than most American
men. Some Filipinas couldn't get a
filipino guy that's why they end up
marrying Americans.

Ans: If you truly love someone it doesn't matter if a person is ugly outside as long as inside is good. I have lots of BF in the Phils but not one is serious enough to love me.

3.) Because they think when they come
in the US, they will be the center of
attraction. It's so funny when some
filipinas really think of themselves
highly and that in the eyes of
Americans, they are the most beautiful
women in the whole world.

Ans: Honestly all of my bf before they called me "gwapa" means beautiful but love demands and the saying says"beauty is upon the eyes of the beholder is true." Wherever you are if a person loves you it doesn't matter if your ugly or not.

4.) They got pregnant by some filipino
punk and got ditched! Well, Americans
really don't care if the filipina has
a love child. At least that's what some
idiot filipinas think.

Ans: I guess this is a question of a filipina who has kids but hey there is no wrong about it...I am totally pure heheh when i have my hubby.

5.)Because they're not anymore
pure! Again, Americans are very
open minded about things and purity
is not a big issue whereas Filipino
men care about it a lot.

Ans; I am very pure and i preserve it for my hubby...

6.) Because they want to come in the
Land of the free and the home of the
brave.. They look at US as if it's
heaven.

Ans; Everybody has its own freedom and there is no law against it.

7 .) Because of the green money..
DOLLARS! So, they could work and send
money to their family back in the
Philippines.<>

Ans; That is an options to every Filipina. If they send or not its their choice.

8.) Because marrying an American makes
them feel important. I hate it when a
filipina who's married to an American
acts like her sh*t doesn't smell as
awful as some filipinas who are
married to filipinos.

Ans; Oh that is not nice its their choice to marry someone whoever they are. Judge not and you shall not be judge.

9.) Because they LOVE the guy.. But, I
really do believe that SOME filipinas
didn't feel that way at first..

Ans; I don't like to marry someone whom i did not love. Love should be given to your hubby.

10.) Because they want to have mestizo
babies that they can show off.. they
think that fil-am kids are superior
than pure bred Filipino kids.. not
true at all..

Ans; It doesn't matter what color is your baby as long as its God's gift we will accept it. Love and love and love them...

Across The Miles

2008-08-19T20:51:00.001Z

Every day I think about you,
and I yearn to see your smile.

Though I miss you terribly
I can feel your love,
across the miles.
Promise me that our love
will never fade or disappear,
but will always shine as bright as the sun.

From the bottom of my heart,
I swear that
You'll always be
the only one!

Blue Without You

2008-08-18T21:05:00.001Z

I like this Poem and hope you like it too.

My red heart is blue,
because I'm missing you.
Every day, I think about you,
and I imagine how great
every hour,
every minute,
and every second would be
if you were here with me.
Every night, when I lie in bed,
I dream that you're beside me,
holding me close to you.
If you were, I'd whisper in your ear,
how much I love you.
Since you came into my life
nothing has been the same.
I've experienced love to its fullest,
and I've tasted a beauty that never ends,
because you're where my happiness begins.
I'm incomplete without you, and
I'll never stop loving you.
You're the world to me,
in brilliant colors.
You're my best friend,
a favorite song that will never end.
And together is where we should be.
Someday soon, I pray,
that you'll walk through the door
and take this heartache away

A Love To gIve

2008-08-15T17:28:00.003Z

Do you love to give and share to others like food, clothing or whatever you can give? Well, that question is depending on a person's decision. Some people spend a lot of time to do missionary works just like if you are a doctor a free clinic is good once in a while, if you are a preacher tell the love of Jesus to others, if you are a teacher you will teach kids how to have good manners, honor parents or whatever you do to glorify God that's a missionary works. How about donate certain charities or sponsor some groups or anything you can do to help others. The BisdakPlanet Foundation is one of my example of this Love to give and share. This is a group of Filipino who speak the same dialect or language. The purpose of this foundation is to help kids in the Philippines. For example schools, someone who have surgeries and of course if members have problem they will help too. I am impress of the administrators of this foundation and of course myself is one of the members of it. I will share a video of the school that we are planning to give a school supplies.
