Effort
Nothing in this life is ever easy. Sometimes even after doing your best, still we end up pretty short. But always remember, "Effort only releases its full rewards after one constantly refuses to give up!".
Beautiful Life
A life here in this world is not about routine but doing something rare. To cherish and not to compare, to forgive and not to blame and to be loving without counting. Laugh at your mistakes but learn from them, joke over your troubles but gather strength from them, have fun with your difficulties but overcome them. God has reasons why He allows you to live. Have a meaningful life by His will, to see the beauty that this life gives.
Learning Many Things
We don’t need to have any critical experiences for us to learn many things. Having some shallow experiences will already do. It will just a matter on how we interpret and give importance to the things that had happened to us. Learning how to learn and learning how to change to be better are two of the best elements for us to become a better and much mature person.
Class A Is a Family!
The date was August 19 - 21, 2009 at St. Benedict Monastery and Retreat House located in Digos City. Accompanied by our two Campus Ministry facilitators, we, the IT - 4A, were able to arrive safe and sound in the retreat house and in going back to Davao City with Metro Shuttle. The very reason of this three day stay is to have our Retreat with all of our classmates. To rest, relax, release, reflect and renew our minds and hearts in order to find wisdom.
The place is really very peaceful indeed. We can only hear the birds singing all day long, the bells ringing be it for the sessions, for food, for the mass or so for the 6:00PM prayer of the Monks. The two Sisters were very kind too accommodating us in our stay. The priest, Father Patrick, is very good in his sessions. Every sessions becomes more meaningful. I do love hearing your words Father, for you really point it out for us to realize that we need to prioritize things in order to have a better future. We really do thank you for that.
Being with the ClassA students who are my classmates, is really a good and unforgettable experience. It was my first time being with you all away from the city. I don’t know how to express my feelings towards you all but I hope you’ll get the idea and feeling here in my post how thankful and happy I am with you around. There are always the teasing days. A day will cry without you teasing me and that’s a funny thing to be reminisce. During the retreat, I do wish to make it a one week stay, but on the other side, I’m thankful we got only three days for I can recover easily the feeling of missing you all on our bonding in the retreat house though we can see each other always again at school.
The sharing of the small groups was very meaningful. There were tears of sadness and of pain but there were happiness too. I love it when I shared about the teasing moments. I asked the group why are you all teasing me each and everyday? And then a nice answer heard. Thank you!
The most memorable one was the second night, exchanging candles saying thank you, sorry and I love you to our classmates. There were sweet and peaceful smiles, tears of joy, and laughter. I really never expected what happened, almost all of you ClassA exchange candles to mine. I heard lots of you saying sorry and thank you. In my mind, all of you don’t need to say sorry at all for nothing really went wrong with me being with you. My heart glows and I can only say, thank you! Thank you for that memorable night ClassA!
You didn’t make it hard for me to adjust and to like you all. I told this to Abz already and I’m gonna say this again to all of you: I am thankful I have this chance to be with you all, because you make it worth for me.
Listen to Your Heart
In love, it is good to listen to friends’ advice and judgement for they fill in the blindness we refuse to see. It is good to decide when all ideas come in hand for it leads us to right decisions. But you know what? It is still best to listen, follow and decide with your own heart and judgement.
Keep this in mind: The love of two individuals can only be felt by the heart that beats, not the eyes of the others. So when loving, learn to listen but decide on your own. After all you know what can really make you happy.
Life of Love
A lot of us have built dreams with people we hoped would be with us forever only to wake up in reality that nothing’s really permanent in this world. Love come and go. People stay and leave. Life is a constant cycle of finding and losing, of making and breaking, of dying and living again. That’s why we should love them right. For we can never tell, we might wake up one day realizing that we already lost the people we ought to protect, cared and love.
Let’s be brave enough to express our feelings towards the people we love.

Empty
EmptyBy: Celida Reyes
At first I didn’t know what I feel for you,
All I know I just can’t be true,
Your stupid eyes taught me to love you,
Though I know you love her too.
All I know I just can’t be true,
Your stupid eyes taught me to love you,
Though I know you love her too.
You seem a color to me,
But I just want to be free,
Free from this feeling for thee,
Coz I don’t want to be hurt because of her.
I wish you will look at me,
Oh please I wish for thee,
I beg you to fall for me,
Coz I know it cannot be.
So please stop and get rid of me,
Even if I hope you’re here with me,
I command you to go away and leave me,
Because for thee,
I feel so empty!

A nice poem from Celida Reyes. I got this from The Clarion which is the official publication of Davao Doctor’s College for the academic year 2008-2009. They have nice poems. I love it.
