Visita Iglesia–A Reflection On The Road Part I…
See: more videos of YouTube member>>
After three weeks in Bali, Indonesia with Mahal, I’m back in the Philippines just in time for Lent. I felt how it was like, how strange it can be to see in a festivity how I find a suffocating togetherness can bring loneliness, how draining it can be inside….as I possess (I am aware), I believe and I would like to say, (sana lang nga) a certain level of healthy stubborness (darn!)….Makulit!…. I am searching for balance….I need it. Slowly, I am getting back the real grip of my reality….getting back that “fast” inspiration of finishing my project as well, hehe….getting in touch with myself while the world continues to move and evolve….tapping how am I really doing, what have I done with my fellow human being as a human being myself….I have flaws and am not perfect but I know compassion, care, love and sympathy….to be aware of myself, my relationship with others with an open mind without any judgement, regardless of gender, race, color, faith and/or situation….with patience, care, love….even if I meet several bumps along the way….It can be difficult along the way, with all the many trials and hardships I encounter along the way….I will try and give my best to love myself and others in full honesty and kindness…After all, it really boils down to one thing–”Do unto others what you want others to do unto you”, to love others as you love yourself….to treat others with kindness, honesty and care the best I can….I will do my reflection on the road this Good Friday. A Visita Iglesia would be nice.

Biyaheng Langit
a song by: Lolita Carbon
Biyaheng langit pare ko ang pasada ko
Trip to heaven, brother, is my way
Pamasahe ay libre, magkasama lang tayo
Fare is free, as long as we’re together
Pakisama lang pare sa kapwa tao mo
Get along, brother, with your fellow
Mahalin mo ang iba tulad nang sarili mo
Love others like your own self
Biyaheng langit pare ko ang pasada ko
Trip to heaven, brother, is my way
Umangkas na lahat kayo
Stand by/along, all of you
Makasalanan din akong sakay sa biyaheng it
I am also a sinner, as a passenger, in this trip
Pero, sa awa niya’y aabot din tayo
But, with His mercy, we will get there
Itaga mo sa bato ang sasabihin ko
Cast in stone (remember) what I’m going to say
Nasa isip mo’t puso and iyong pagbabago
Change is in your mind and heart
Kay tagal kong naghanap nang isang diyu-diyosin ko
For a long time, I’ve searched for the one I will call my Almighty
Siya pala’y naghihintay lamang sa puso ko
When He is only waiting here in my heart
Biyaheng langit pare ko ang pasada ko
Trip to heaven, brother, is my way
Umangkas na lahat kayo
Stand by/along, all of you
Makasalanan din akong sakay sa biyaheng it
I am also a sinner, as a passenger, in this trip
Pero, sa awa niya’y aabot din tayo
But, with His mercy, we will get there
Ipaubaya mo na lang sa Diyos ang buhay mo
Submit/offer to the Almighty your life
Magbigay ka nang lubos at babalik sa’yo
Give fully and it will return
Siya ang bahala sabi niya at maniwala ka
He will take care of it and believe in it
‘Pag ang bahala ay ang Diyos
When the Almighty takes charge
Lahat pare ay ayos!
Everything will be all right.
Biyaheng langit pare ko ang pasada ko
Trip to heaven, brother, is my way
Umangkas na lahat kayo
Stand by/along, all of you
Makasalanan din akong sakay sa biyaheng it
I am also a sinner, as a passenger, in this trip
Pero, sa awa niya’y aabot din tayo
But, with His mercy, we will get there
Aabot din….aabot din tayo…
We will get there…
Honestly, I really find it hard to do fasting….so, I will bring along a large bottle of water and some tuna sandwiches for my snacks. Summertime…. it will be really hot along the way…
Tuna Sandwich Filling:
1 regular can of tuna flakes in brine (drain and discard the liquid)
ample amount of mayo (just enough not to make the spread soggy)
pinch of salt and pepper to taste
chopped onion stalks ( just eyeball)
