THE NEXT ACT

Sometimes it is not important who’s right or wrong. Small debate is waste of time and does not have to be brought in the fighting arena. Why bother contradicting when you know the battle will be messy and you end up ….. where? Ruined territories: that’s what you get in order to prove your …point? Not worth it. Principles are worth fighting for. If it is just proving who comes first – the chicken or the egg – forget it!

I got to tell about the Davao experience. It was my first time in Davao. From the window of the plane while landing in the runway of Davao Airport, I could see the colorful design of the window of the airport edifice. In the baggage waiting area, we were amused by some native dancers with Muslim costumes and all. Outside, while waiting for our service vehicle on our way to Malagos Garden Resort, a giant Duryan Monument was noticeable. I was hoping for a photo session at the monument but I did not have the control of the itinerary. Malagos Garden Resort is one and half drive from the airport. I should have taken a lick before the long ride. The service vehicle dropped us near the gate of the resort for us to transfer to a shuttle going to our cottage. The resort is really professionally designed although I got a creepy feeling when I look at the woods beyond the garden. This feeling was exaggerated when I walked at night from the cottage to the gate. The restaurant in the midd

I felt nostalgic when I watched a film in HBO about the evolution of Mork and Mindy. I did not catch the title but I was so goo-ga-ga when I watched it because I am a fan of Robin Williams. The actor, of whom I did not catch the name, did a great portrayal. He is like a reincarnation of the persona of Mr. Williams. The actor has a partner who is a Pam Dawber look-alike. Although her voice does not match Pam Dawber’s, she would pass as the 70’s America’s No 1 Sweetheart. I got a good experience watching it. I wish to watch it again. I hope there will be a sequel continuing the life of Robin Williams after Mork and Mindy.

I have redesigned the animated GIF website. The previous one seemed to be too much of a giveaway. All you need was one click and this website would showcase all. The redesigned website would remove the buffet and would offer a menu that would leave costumers to choose their necessary delight. You may visit www.jonsaint.net.

Humility and inner peace goes hand in hand. It seems that nowadays inner peace is hard to find. And it made me realize that maybe there is something wrong with the way I live my life. There is wrong with my system that needs overhauling. I believe that we unintentionally take ourselves out of the inner peace because of extra baggage that we thought are valuable. One of those high maintenance is proving to others what you’ve got. Making sure that your accomplishments would come across to others is energy consuming. Why bother? Why do you have to prove anything? Sometimes the more you show off, the more people will not believe in you or the more people will avoid you or the more people will stab you in the back. Humility comes in handy in the long run. Just be humble no matter what achievements you’ve got under your sleeves. Bragging is taking you away to the pedestal however exact that you are truthfully belong there. I wish I could learn to how obtain a quiet and inner c

I reread a portion of a book by Covey. The last blog reminded me about the wisdom of Covey about how you would gain faith in yourself. He was talking about Personal Integrity Account. It’s like a bank where you may have options to deposit or withdraw. Too much withdrawal would definitely lose your account. Breaking promises are withdrawal from the personal integrity account. Losing the account is losing your faith in yourself. Confidence is down in a dwindling faith. Got to recover. Got to make the promises fulfilled. Got to get up.
