"How do you know if you're in love"

For me the person in love is when you've been crushing on someone for a while, sometimes it's hard to know if the butterflies you get every time they're nearby means you really like or ~love~ them, or if it's just because you've built them up so much in your head. Take this quiz to help you tell if what you're feeling is just infatuation, or if it's the real deal.

"Can Love be Measured"

Love is not just an emotion. It’s not simply some uncontrollable feeling you fall in and out of. It doesn’t have to be here today and gone tomorrow. Nor does it ever have to leave you, in any relational context, if you don’t want it to.

And that’s because love is measured and maintained primarily by what you give, not what you receive. According to scripture, that’s the love metric: what you give to him, what you sacrifice for her, not necessarily what you feel.

"Why should we walk according to P.S Castrence"

For me, we should walk according to P.S Castrence because this the way that we forgot problem and to do some exercise that can make you happy in your life and the purpose of walking is to loss weight and lifting your mood to controlling any sick and lowering your blood pressure.

 To A Lost One

Angela Manalang-Gloria

I shall haunt you, O my lost one, as the twilight

Haunts a grieving bamboo trail,

And your dreams will linger strangely with the music

Of a phantom lover’s tale

You shall not forget, for I am past forgetting

I shall come to you again

With the starlight, and the scent of wild champakas,

And the melody of rain.

You shall not forget. Dusk will peer into your

Window, tragic-eyed and still,

And unbidden startle you into remembrance

With its hand upon the sill.

To a lost one

        The poem To a lost one for me, is a poem all about death. A dark atmosphere is created when reading the lines of the poem. Trails, or hints of emotion can be found within the text.And for me, I think that these emotions are what's dominant on the whole poem. By Psychological Approach is perhaps the most effective approach that we can use when it comes to these situations. The Psychological Approach does not only focus on the behavior and characteristics that can be found on the characters or from the writer of a piece of literature but it can also discuss the emotions that are present there.

      Moving on to the analysis of the first paragraph, from what I have interpreted of the poem, it seems like the point of view is from the dead person instead of the one grieving for him. Such is said due to the use of words made by the writer. Grief is the emotion that can be seen on the first paragraph. The one who died expresses his sadness for being separated from his loved one. This grief tends to affect the person who was loved and is haunting her. As what is said from lines 2-4, the ghost haunts the dream of the girl and there lingers a strange music with it.

   The second paragraph focuses on the emotion of not wanting to be forgotten. The so called ghost still wants to be remembered by the girl. And his way of making her remember him is through the help of nature. The signs of nature that are produced serves as the representation of himself for the girl to see. From the light of the stars at night, to the scent of

Champakas, and even from the melody of the rain. 

  On the last paragraph, the person who died or the guy stated firmly that the girl will definitely not forget him. He is sure that his efforts will reach the girl and make her remember of him. Overall the poem expresses emotions such as grief and regret for  the person who died still cannot move on to the next life. Maybe by making the girl remember him can ease some of his pain and help him passover to the next life.

"My Reaction Paper on like the Molave"

LIKE THE MOLAVE I 1940)

By: Rafael Zulueta da Costa

Not yet, Rizal, not yet. Sleep not in peace;

There are a thousand waters to be spanned;

There are a thousand mountains to be crossed;

There are a thousand cross to be borne.

Our shoulders are not strong; our sinews are

Grown flaccid with dependence, smug with ease

Under another‘s wing. Rest not in peace;

Not yet, Rizal, not yet. The land has need

Of young blood and, what younger than your own,

Forever spilled in the great name of freedom.

Forever oblate on the altar of

The free? Not you alone, Rizal. O souls

And spirits of the martyred brave - arise!

Arise and scour the land! Shed once again

Your willing blood! Infuse the vibrant red

Into our thin anemic veins; until

We pick up your Promethean tools and strong,

Out of the depthless matrix of your faith

In us, and on the silent cliffs of freedom,

We carve, for all time your marmoreal dream!

Until our people, seeing, are become

Like the Molave, firm, resilient, staunch

Rising on the hillside, unafraid,

Strong in its own fiber; yes, like the Molave!

Not yet,Rizal,not yet. The glory hour will come 

Out of the silent dreaming 

from the seven thousand fold silence 

We shall emerge, saying WE ARE FILIPINOS! 

and no longer be ashamed

 sleep not in peace 

the dream is not yet fully carved

 hard the wood but harder the woods 

yet the molave will stand 

yet the molave monument will rise

 and god's walk on brown legs 

1^st stanza it sees that Rizal cannot rest yet because we are still very dependent on others and we need to become independent.

2^nd stanza it sees that the Philippines needs young people’s blood like Rizal so we can have the courage to fight for the country and we can have true freedom.

3^rd stanza it sees that Rizal cannot be alone. Heroes also need to help. They have to cleanse the land of our problems and they are inspiring us to be like them so that we can be like the molave.

4^th stanza it sees that So out of the dream, all of us Filipinos will be courageous enough already saying that WE ARE FILIPINOS and no longer be worried.

5^th stanza it sees that The dream is not yet finished, we might be like the heroes but there are harder problems yet we will stand up and change that always and once and for all, we have become like gods.

My reaction about this poem is a beautiful poem that i have encountered in my life because this is very interesting poem that Rizal made and  it that likens the youth and vigor of the Philippines youth to the beautiful Filipino Molave tree. In the poem, strong images of hard work, suffering, and bloodshed evoke the difficult life of the poorer classes in the Philippines, and the poet wishes that these generations to generation of young people will show the eventual strength, beauty, and longevity as a fully- grown Molave tree.

Speech "Goal in our life"

Speech  "Goal in our life"

To make one’s life successful we need to have a goal. A life without a goal is like a ship without a compass.

We are lucky to have a good school with all necessary infrastructures. No matter how you had been in the last term, but what matters most today is how well you will utilize your capabilities and the facilities provided in the school in this term. You must have heard of Abraham Lincoln. He was the son of a poor woodcutter. Every day he was found reading under a street light. One day a police man on patrolling asked him, “Why are you found here so late at night?” Boy Lincoln replied instantly, “If I don’t read now how can I become the president of America”? The surprised policeman asked him, “You, you want to become the President of America?” We know that later he became the best president that America had ever seen.

How many of us do have such specified goals in our life? People who had high goals in life proved themselves to be great assets for their nations. Are we not destined to be great? Don’t we have the capabilities?

Dear friends, Specific goals in life enable us to move forward with determination. And this determination persuades us to strive hard. Are you all ready to be great? May the Almighty bless us in finding our goals and realizing them.

My Reaction of this speech is we need to pursue are goal in life in order to help my family and the people in the society especially to the poor people and we must to everything to sacrifice of what the really important in the job. This the way that me help me to have a better future someday. We all know that goal in life is always in the presence but me in the past because this is me and this my choice of what my dream are not in presence and we are not the same in the personal decision.
