There is an interesting thought that I would like to connect on every animal photo you’ll see here. Now, let me talk a little bit about each photo. "Dog in the Bushes" I bet you can see it – the dog. We love dogs, many of us. This photo was taken on a grassy area along the street where we parked our vehicle during one of our trips in Cavite, Philippines . At first look, everything seems to be normal. The dog is just there, sitting and watching. But after a while, there’s another dog nearby eating something. This dog in the photo looks hungry but the other dog doesn’t want to share him even a small bite. We then realized those dogs were actually friends and they’re both patiently waiting

Just search for “Jose Rizal” over the internet and you’ll surely get instant answers to the question “Who is Jose Rizal?” You’ll see photos that will somehow reveal Rizal’s looks, styles and hobbies.

Cool Things You Need to Know About the Philippines – Part 1

If you’re a pure Filipino, almost all of the cool things I am about to discuss here, you’re already familiar with for sure. Well, not to offend Pinoy’s with foreign blood, but it is quite unusual that you deeply know that Philippines by heart if you have not been in the country for 20 years or so. And even if you’re traveling around the country for quite some time, from North to South, East to West, the cool things are sometimes challenging to be seen or observe. Why did I say that? It is simply because the real happenings are experienced mostly in the provinces and it is the conversation with the natives that plays a big part in getting to know things in the country by heart. Their stories, verbal proofs, physical samples, and folktales will further tell you it’s the real thing.

My Bad Experiences is the Reason Why I Always Want to Help Others

Several months have passed since I posted my last blog here. As you know, I got so busy with a couple of things since then. I was actually in the road to recovery of GERD (Gastroesophageal reflux disease) in the past couple of months. Good for me, I am now healed and capable of doing stuffs I used to put on hold for a while – just like the blogging activities. Another thing that keeps me away is this amazing website I created out of my ambition to help and serve others on their learning process. The site is called Knowriel.com . Before I get deeper on this website thing, let me first tell some stories of what had happened to me, to my life as a blogger, as an ordinary guy looking to change the world for good. Late last year, around September, I was rushed to the hospital for feeling dizzy, weak, and catching up my breath. The air entering my lungs was so thin that I couldn’t almost breathe. Lucky I was for after an hour in the emergency room, I was able to regain my normal breathing.

A Message to All from a Filipino - Failures Come But Our Pursuit of Success Should Continue - This 2017!

Failure, more likely, comes into your way this 2016. As tragic as unexpected or as tiny as we hoped, failure - and you would definitely agree with me - is a part of our life. Do not judge by my successes, judge me by how many times I fell down and got back up again. - Nelson Mandela Failure comes in a variety of ways and depends on how you treat it – big, small, just fine. For most of us, we consider it a failure when: we are unable to get a promotion, there is delay in receiving our bonuses, we suddenly lose our job, we didn’t make it to the leader-board, an unexpected health issue comes, we are unable to pay our debts or a financial issue strikes, one of our family members passed away or got troubled and we are guilty of the negligence (sorry to mention this tragic one), you or your wife filed for a divorce, etc. They’re too many and how I wish none of these (or none at all) became one of your failures. But still, let me ask you: What was your biggest failure in life last year? Di
