“The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolved than it will be”
“Welcome every morning with a smile. Look on the new day as another special gift from your Creator, another golden opportunity to complete what you were unable to finish yesterday. Be a self-starter. Let your first hour set the theme of success and positive action that is certain to echo through your entire day. Today will never happen again. Don't waste it with a false start or no start at all. You were not born to fail.”
“Whenever you make a mistake or get knocked down by life, don't look back at it too long. Mistakes are life's way of teaching you. Your capacity for occasional blunders is inseparable from your capacity to reach your goals. No one wins them all, and your failures, when they happen, are just part of your growth. Shake off your blunders. How will you know your limits without an occasional failure? Never quit. Your turn will come.”
“Well, it seems to me that the best relationships - the ones that last - are frequently the ones that are rooted in friendship. You know, one day you look at the person and you see something more than you did the night before. Like a switch has been flicked somewhere. And the person who was just a friend is... suddenly the only person you can ever imagine yourself with”

Say It With Flowers...

Most people will say that buying and giving flowers is just a waste of money because no matter how expensive and beautiful the arrangements are, they'll just wither and die in a matter of days. But personally speaking, and being so feminine, myself, receiving flowers is such a delight and means so much to me. It is an expression of love, appreciation, fondness, and a way of telling just how special you are. There was a time in my life when I used to turn upside down all the flower bouquets I've received as my way of preserving them. I quit when it looked like I had turned one of my rooms into a dried flowers shop  But yeah, I simply love it when someone sends me flowers on any occasion (on my birthday, my friends and co-workers don't fail to send me one, at least).
Although most women prefer jewelries or things that last longer, I still advise MEN to buy their special someone flowers, not only during Valentine's Day, but even during the days when there's no occasion at all. After all, LOVE is not occasional...It is all the time.
And before I forget, here's another important advice to those guys who initially "chicken out" each time they intend to say I LOVE YOU verbally...Let the love of your life know how you FEEL by giving her flowers...I'm 100% sure, she'll get the message  ...So, what the hell are you waiting for? |

Why are you so obsessed with me?

Ahhhh! I thought I could keep this to myself, but this has been going on for sometime now and no matter how I try to "understand" your abnormalities and attempts to get some attention (believe me, I've been quite generous to you, even if you don't deserve it  ), like a soaked sponge, there's always a saturation point, that I couldn't absorb any further. I'm sorry, but I just have to let other people here know about your "obsession" with me.Since the time we met, I've seen the two sides of you. A bit of that sane, kind, simple person, but too much of the other lunatic, attention-seeking guy who'd do unconventional things to draw attention. What's with the series of tell-tales about the "women" who are dying to have you just because you're financially established and are ready to retire comfortably any time? that you originally were after women of high caliber and that it's their/our loss for not accepting your offer for coffee or so.. (Big Deal!) ...What's with the change of handle stating you're "absolutely" in love with a woman almost half your age, claiming you've implanted your semen inside her which resulted into multiple gestation so quickly?...Okay, fine! Whatever! Whether it's true, illusion, or delusion of grandeur, that's none of our business really. It's up to the readers to either believe or trash everything you say...
How many times have you banned me from viewing or posting in your blogs after each time I burst your bubbles and lambasted you point blank? But I tell you what, you cannot deny the fact that no matter what, deep inside you, you still admire me for who and what I am.. You know, it's okay for us to be acquaintances,(not really close friends) because I've already accepted your bipolar(ity) (hahahaha! my new terminology). But, let me tell you this, if you truly love your honeybunny and your newborn, you will QUIT sending me nonsense TEXT MESSAGES from early morning (Gosh! you probably have not even brushed your teeth), noon, evening, midnight, and whatever time..It's beem going on for a while now, and in as much as I really wanted to BLOCK your number from my cellfone, unfortunately, I have to switch back to another service to do that or subscribe to a website and download a service to GET rid of your number...But, I have a better idea...Why don't I publish your number here, so that everyone who is nearby can endlessly annoy you with text messages and phone calls? How about that?
So, my advice to you, just stick with your HoneyBunny...Stop moonlighting and fantasizing...You've already enjoyed watching me and my little shape in person twice, and with your goldball you can view all my pictures including the sexy ones anytime...Stop being obssessed...Get real!

Is Love Really Blind?
|

Well, no one can tell exactly why some people choose partners who are totally the opposite of what others "usually" expect. Maybe, it's not even their original preference, but more of anticipating stability, durability, and commitment in their relationships. Have you noticed that the ones who choose partners of higher qualities (looks, social status, profession, intelligence etc.) end up in divorce courts much sooner than those who picked the opposite? People are quick to judge if one marries someone who is unattractive, uneducated, and poor. But in reality, marriage/relationships with those people last longer, if not till the end, just because, in the beginning, they were loved for who and what they are and NOT what they were expected to be.
I believe, loving someone entails being "partially blind" to his/her faults, shortcomings and imperfections, either from the very beginning or during the course of the union. Too much expectations of "changes" and reforms warrant no assurance that one will have lifetime partnership. Good looks will always fade, and love, alone, cannot hold its own ground. On the contrary, if love is just the main reason to enter any relationship, then brace yourself for an immediate exit. Through the years, and worldwide, people from all walks of life have decategorized the meaning and essence of love. It has become a "faulty switch". When you turn it ON, it'll give you a very bright and luminous light, but once you turn it OFF, almost always, you're guaranteed of a short circuit, of not being able to turn it back ON...
What I am trying to say here is this: " DON'T BE AFRAID OF INCOMPATIBILITIES...FOR MOST OF THE TIME, OPPOSITE COUPLES ATTRACT, AND KEEP THEMSELVES ON THEIR TOES. "
And with that in mind, I guess, I am going to be "partially blind"...

My Funny Valentine...

Most of the people think I am serious  , and snob  But in reality, I am a bit of every personality I have. I am full of life  and full of love  , even though my heart has been wounded  a couple of times  . I may have been too careful and very picky too,  for I don't want to have another broken heart  or two. I met quite a few guys   in the past years, but nothing sort of romance   was ever clear. We've danced   dined  and laughed  our moments away, and then just said hello's and hi's and goodbyes  and looked away. And come to think I am always told that I am   , how come I'm still loveless though I'm a good catch? 
Okay, okay, let me make this announcement.. and then show the men  the   and maybe they'll hit it    on the spot. It only takes one special person  , but please, I don't mean "special" as in "retarded" to sweep me off my feet  For as long as he looks decent  and he has the  and the  at least, for VALENTINE's DAY, then, I guess WE  will be A- 
I am anticipating for my  next month, what can you say?  And to ALL of YOU out there, HAPPY VALENTINE's DAY! |

Breaking the rules: Is it a cry for attention and help?
|
Jan 25, 2011 7:22 am

Long time ago, I have read an article (forgive me for not remembering the source) about reasons why some people love to be different by breaking rules/laws. There had been controversies involving social deviants and criminals. Some say that criminals became such because most of the time, they were victims of poverty, bad parenting and personal abuses, themselves. Most of them are not really mentally derailed, but what they do gives them the feeling of being in control of other people's lives as opposed to controlling their own. Others just want to be different, but unfortunately, on the negative side. It's their way of getting the attention they've always needed, but lacked since time immemorial.
Relevant to this, we see people here and there, who are doing things considered minor, but obviously, still an outcry for attention. Oftentimes, they describe themselves with pride, masking their inner desire to hear/read others` approval regarding their looks, social status, and over-all personality.
One thing for sure, lawbreakers, in whatever form, are lonely, unhappy, and vain. But I tell you what...I do believe that it is their choice to be such....

Will You Marry Me?

I know, once in a woman's lifetime, there's always the thought of a fancy wedding...Something that she'll cherish and remember for the rest of her life...Slowly walking down the aisle, looking her best, and ready to face a new world, that of marriage..A dream come true, until otherwise, it becomes a nightmare in the end. But no one will ever know if things will work out until one tries. So, even if it's a huge risk to take that plunge, it's still worth it, while it lasts.
I have once dreamt of a fancy wedding, (not the civil rite) where only those who are very close to me will witness the event. It didn't matter if there are only 25 people in attendance, for as long as it is solemn and very special, with all the trimmings that I've always wanted. After all, it is the great union of a MAN and a WOMAN for the rest of their lives that matters the most.
I know, this dream of mine will remain only as a dream, unless one day, "someone comes along" and make it all come true. Someone who will take and keep me for who I am..Someone who will finally complete me...Someone who will pop the question : .." Will You Marry Me?".. |

Another Eye Ball This Coming Feb. 18-21st
|
Jan 16, 2011 3:02 am
2196 Views
|
We all need some time to socialize, and what could be a perfect time to do it and with whom?  ....Your guess is as good as mine. For the past 5 years of membership here in FFF, I've known wonderful people who became my "adoptive/ted" families. Some, I've Eye Balled ( E.B. ) quite a few times, and some I even had a chance to be with for more than a week.
Indeed, it can be very lonely being single and by yourself at home, but being kind and sincerely friendly with others do make a difference. " No Man Is An Island" they say. It is one's choice to remain isolated and anti-social, while I choose to be with my wonderful friends....
Hence, I am making this announcement and invite those who are interested to Eye Ball with other FFF members. This coming February 18, 2011, I will be in Sacramento, CA to meet with Bhabes, and then, we will proceed to Bay Area (San Francisco) to join our friends there for the President's Day weekend. So we are calling the attention of those who live nearby and join us. It will be a weekend of fun...

Partying Over?

Jan 13, 2011 4:41 am

...Well, I guess, after the holidays, most of us promised to lose weight. What with those endless parties and invites we had the past year? It's so easy to put on those extra pounds and so hard to get rid of them  How's your "New Year's Resolutions" coming along? It's already the second week of January, and I have not gone back to Zumba dancing at least. And so far, the past couple of weeks were pretty hectic. I had a visitor from Sri Lanka who kept me very busy, and even that included showing her around the McAllen area, treated her to restaurants, and I managed to cook at home on several occasions. I also had my best friend's hubby invitation to dine out a couple of days back. In short, we've been stuffing our faces still. Today, I am about to change that...It's about time, right? My hips are rounder, and so does my face... If anything, only my heart did not change...It's still HUGE and full of love to give 
...Inspite of several issues here and there, and my stress level quite high, I managed to keep my sanity intact. So far, I have not been binging on food much more than I should...or at least, that's what I think... But who could resist food when they're served in front of you? After the holidays, there were other invites such as baby showers, bridal showers, birthday parties, and soon, we are going to have a Farewell party for a co-worker as well..So, there you go! ..But, I will behave, and I hope to keep my promise...How about you? |

Alex36 a.k.a Donald_Hoppy : Be Nice or Leave us Alone!
|
Jan 11, 2011 4:20 am
2054 Views

I have enough of these threats and disruption of PEACE here in Blogsville. The one person at this point who is so mean, attention-seeker, very sore (like hemorrhoids) who keeps threatening members/bloggers who only want to have clean fun and exchange friendly posts here at FilipinoFriendFinder, is the "boy" with a handle named Alex36, formerly known as Donald_Hoppy, (and God knows how many ghost handles he had created in the past). Why I call him "BOY" ? Because he acts like one. What was his age when he was the DUCK? 63? and now 36..with the same photos that he used in his former profile..       and many more...I am sure, FFF still has his former handles' activities in their archives..
We, fun and peace loving bloggers and members here, WILL NOT ALLOW THIS TO CONTINUE...Last night, after posting in my group, the HAPPY VALLEY PEOPLE, my profile and handle was DENIED! Guess, who is behind it? I have blocked him from posting comments on my blogs because he, Donald_Hoppy, a.k.a Alex36, does not deserve it. He doesn't like me and I don't like him either...But we do not have to like each other anyway. We just have to keep the peace and harmony here in Blogsville. WHY IS HE SO ANGRY and SORE at US? and why is he converting the FilipinoFRIENDfinder into FilipinoFOEfinder instead? Reasons:
1. When FFF changed the Top Blogger's merit system, he was booted out.
2. Because of his cruel, mean, unfriendly, harrassing, attacking and threatening character, no one wants to post or comment on his blogs, and just IGNORE HIM...And he is FUMING! 
3. He doesn't like it that everyone is having fun exchanges while he is "talking to himself".
4. He hates other members who copies his "fake" personality/ties, so he threatens to have them DELETED...and anyone who posts anything that he doesn't like, he interferes, with nasty remarks and then DELETES them.
5. He DISRESPECTS EVERYONE all the more for ignoring him, and yet, expects ALL to accord him RESPECT...Can you imagine that coming from a former American "NAVY OFFICER" as he claims he is?
6. There had been many "casualties" here in bloglandia, and we've been hardly hit because of this "boy" or is he really? Who knows the true gender of this handle, Alex36, formerly, Donald_Hoppy? NO ONE KNOWS!
KEVIN has been victimized by him and he, Alex36, had been very OPEN in his threats with KEVIN...He also had JO, Justine4u deleted, and called her and TESS as SPAMMERS/SCAMMERS...He is responsible for the deletion or invisibilities of other handles such as namelessfaceless, DonatoNY, Smiley1957, and many more, as he claimed he knows someone from FFF who can do the deletion for him.
It's a BIG SHAME for someone who claims to be an AMERICAN to be this MEAN. America supports DEMOCRACY and FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION, and BLOGGING is one activity and venue where people can freely express what they feel, for as long as they do not violate FFF rules.
I am calling on everyone to COPY/PASTE all Alex36 threatening posts as soon as you read them (before he deletes them thereafter, so as not to leave any proof) and send it IMMEDIATELY to Abuseatfilipinofriendfinderdotcom or abuseatfriendfinderincdotcom (please substitute at with @ and dot with . )
RESPECT BEGETS RESPECT, and one has to EARN IT!
