Hanggang May Pag-Ibig

By: APO Hiking Society

STANZA 1

Kung puso ang siyang umibig
Mahirap mong mapigilan
Parang isang nobela
Na di mo na mabitiwan
Mga tauhan dito
May kanya-kanyang tungkulin
Kapag hindi na makaya
Langing may paraang mahahanap

STANZA 2

Kwento ng ating buhay
Ay parang isang nobela
Kwento ng kasiyahan
kung minsan ay kalungkutan
Kapag may hadlang sa istorya
At tagilid ang bida
At parang di na makaya
Laging may paraang mahahanap

CHORUS:

Hanggang mayrong kang pag-ibig
Langing mayrong ginhawa
Kapag mayrong kang kasama
Walang hindi makakaya
kahit anong problemang ating madama
Pag-ibig na ang siyang bahala

BRIDGE:

Kapag may hadlang sa istorya
At tagilid ang bida
At parang di na makaya
Laging may paraang mahahanap

*Repeat 4 times

Turning Weakness into your Advantage

A conventional thinking tells you need to be tall enough to dunk. It means if you're not 6 footer or taller, most probably, you can't dunk.

Screenshot from The Flight Brothers video

But take a look at this Youtube video of this young dunker named Porter Mabery, he's just 5 ft 4 in but dunks as a normal tall player.

At initial thought, his weakness is his height but as you see his gravity-defying dunks, his shortness in height, makes an ordinary dunk looks amazing compared to any common tall dunker.

The plight of Porter Mabery, may have a resemblance in our lives for we also have weaknesses.

But through GOD's gifts and talents, these seemingly weaknesses, could be our asset or advantage. 

And to all the goodness and greatness we achieve, it is but just to say, "To GOD be the Glory!"

ELEVATION: A Filipino Baller Nearing To Live His NBA Dream

Kobe Paras, a 16 year-old Filipino basketball player with 6 ft 5 in and growing, is in Los Angeles, California, USA playing for a high school team (L.A.Cathedral) and bound for UCLA Bruins (University of California, Los Angeles) — the college basketball team that has produced the likes of Regie Miller, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Bill Walton and Matt Barnes.

He's the youngest son of PBA Legend Benjie Paras.

The young Paras last played for DLSU in the Philippines.

Very much aware of his dreams and abilities, with the help of his family, Kobe is pursuing his dream of playing for NBA.

By watching the video of Ball Is Life, I will not be surprised that he could really be the first Filipino to ever play in the National Basketball Association.

Very evident, he's very much a total package (both offense and defense) — see for yourself in the video below.

3rd Serving of Charity Basketball

AFP Cavaliers, PNP Responders, Judiciary Magis, MMDA Black Wolves, Malacanang Patriots, DOJ Justice Boosters, Senate Defenders, HOR Solons, BFP Fire Fighters, GSIS Furies and NHA Builders — these are the teams composing the 3rd serving of the first public service basketball tournament in the Philippines, the UNTV Cup. 

It started last November 17, 2014 at the SM Mall of Asia Arena. 

I haven't made it to the venue but at least I was able to monitor it via its webstreaming at www.untvweb.com.

It was attended and participated by luminaries in the government like Senators Sonny Angara and Senator Ralph Recto, Supreme Court Justice Midas Marquez, TESDA Sec. Joel Villanueva and Representative Niel Tupas.

The tournament, running on its 3rd season, is anchored to public service as it was the brainchild of BMPI-UNTV CEO Daniel Razon, known to be Kuya and Mr. Public Service.

It aims to promote camaraderie among the participating branches of the government and the prize of the winning teams will be donated to the team's chosen beneficiary. 

UNTV Cup's Season 1 champion Judiciary Magis were able to give P1-M pesos to the victims of Zamboanga Siege and Bohol Earthquake. Season 2's champion AFP Cavaliers have donated P1.5-M to AFP-EBSO or the AFP Educational Benefit System Office. The PNP Responders as 1st runner up for seasons 1 and 2, have donated a total of at least P1-M total to its chosen beneficiaries.

Indeed, it's an intelligent alternative for basketball fanatics and a way to break your usual Sunday family afternoon entertainment starting at 2PM.

By the way, you can watch their past games on UNTV Cup's video archive at this link. >>> http://www.untvweb.com/video/untvcup/

A Rekindled Love

You fall in love of a something,

Like a candle lighted in the dark.

But time like a wind passed by,

That feeling seemed to have left your heart.

Time was a reason to stop,

But Time also made reasons for a restart

That love that's almost lost,

Now on the door patiently knocks.

Reunion is such a sweet moment.

It promises a better chapter.

Grab my hand now my darlin'

Let's make today a yesterday to remember.

And from now on may we never forget, My Passion,

If God won't be Our Great Counselor,

All the days of our lives will just be as good as shadows.

And our memories will never matter.

A Rekindled Love
