Tuesday Thoughts: Sink or Float

I will never really figure out what this blog is for. No theme. No particular style. Just ideas and thoughts floating about.

Everyday Ordinary Heroes

Yesterday was the 150th birthday anniversary of our country's national hero, Jose Rizal. My family and I were talking about him when my brother asked, "Do you think he was aware he was going to be a hero for what he did or was he just doing what he believed was right and fighting for the country?" To which my Dad answered it was probably the latter.

But despite being recognized (internationally, in fact), I still could not count him in my roster of heroes. Yes, I am well-aware of all his accomplishments and I have utmost respect for what he's done for the country, but I can't relate my life with him. He seemed too accomplished and too high-up to reach.

Which brings me to the thought that these days the term 'hero' is used a lot more often. Some people respectably attribute the title to a public figure, or loosely assign it to a comic book character, or honorably give it to a personal encounter, friend or relative. Makes me wonder what it is about heroes that most people feel the need to have one.

Wednesday Work: 8 Ways to Take up Residence in the Office

Warning/Tip: This is a 3-page post (according to MS Word 2007). For the lazy, read only the text in bold and italics plus the one following the *. =P

I noticed a funny thing unfold in the course of my employment. I kept leaving more things in the office as I started growing more accustomed to my environment. I realized that this is my way of taking up residence in the office.

These are the 8 ways that maybe even you have done to lay claim on your space at work.

Monday Magic: Airports

I was sitting in our team's weekly meeting when a discussion on a promo we have as a tie-up with an airline sent me in a daze. All I needed to hear was the word airline to give my mind permission to wander off.

I miss the airport-the spacious lounges, the yellow lights at night, the glossy granite floors, the extremely tall ceilings, the beautiful tie-in of silver and metal columns with the interiors.

Sunday Sugar: Words of Wisdom

Today was a celebration of sorts for the kids at our Sunday School. Some of the kids were "moving-up" to a higher level and a special program was prepared for them. Part of the program was a message delivered by yours truly. I was invited to share a few of my stories since I grew up in Sunday School and am now a teacher.

A Picture or A Thousand Words?

Nowadays, we're bombarded with visuals that make it so tempting for me to try. Especially with the availability of digital technology, it's hard to resist the invite. 
 
Let me explain what I mean... You see, I've always wanted to make this a photo blog, but it didn't turn out that way.
