and my blog's back...
and my blog's back...i wrote ripway (my image web hosting site) yesterday about my little dilemma concerning my account with them and voila... what do you know? they wrote to me today to tell me that they reactivated my account! yipee... i'm happy. now, my blog looks a lot more decent than it did yesterday!
my blog looks like...
my blog looks like...yes, yes, yes... my site's a total wreck... i know, i know, i know... you don't have to tell me. i already know.sheesh.i just go to iloilo for (barely) a week and when i come back, i come back to the sight of my blog looking like it was designed by mikel or something. i know it's nothing that big to be griping about, but somehow, seeing something you've invested a few hundred hours on, just to make it look the least bit interesting and cool, looking like trash can get to someone like me. sigh. but don't worry. it's okay. i'm fine now.i did some investigating on why my site looks like kiddo and kayo's room, that is, all messed up with no semblance of order, and i found out that the site where i hosted my pics for my blog deactivated my account. why? simply because i failed to log in to my account at least once in the past thirty days. sheesh. talk about a lame reason. oh well. i'll just prolly have to host my blog pics on my multiply instead. at least there, i know i won't just be cut off for some lame reason. until then, i'll just have to bear with my site looking like what it looks like now. ugly. sigh.as for my trip to iloilo, i'll be putting some of the pics up here soon and prolly write something short about it. oh and for sure, i'll be adding a new album about it in my multiply as soon as my computer comes back from the shop. you can just check all the pics there when i do.
what's your take on unconditional love...
what's your take on unconditional love...over the christmas break, extending towards the early part of 2006 and still up until now, i've been thinking a lot about love. stop right there... now, before you all start presuming or speculating about what's going on with my love life (now don't get too excited dani), let me just cut you guys off and say that its not about that or at least not just about the romantic kind of love that i've been mulling over and pondering about. it's about love as a whole... about unconditional love.over the holidays, i've just been gathering my thoughts about the real nature of unconditional love. i've been ruminating about its effect on people, on relationships, on how we live our lives. its boundaries and limitations (if ever it does have... but then again, if it did have, the term would then be an oxymoron of sorts), its complications and/or its simplicity, its tendency to bring out the best in people... or the worst. you know all that stuff...honestly, i'd be lying if i said that i haven't been enlightened about the subject since the beginning of my period of pondering over it, because i have. however, i'd be lying as well if i said that i've gotten a better grasp of the concept of it since then, cuz i haven't. but then again, is unconditional love something that's supposed to be grasped? or... can it even be defined and construed at all in the first place?probably the most classic and truthful definition of love that i can think of can be found in the thirteenth chapter of first corinthians, commonly dubbed as the "love chapter." and as its famous line goes "love is patient, love is kind..." and so it goes on. i've also simply disected and defined the term unconditional love into two distinct parts:1) unconditional adj. without conditions or limitations; absolute.2) love a) n. a deep, tender, ineffable feeling of affection and solicitude toward a person, such as that arising from kinship, recognition of attractive qualities, or a sense of underlying oneness.b) v. to have a deep, tender, ineffable feeling of affection and solicitude toward (a person).i've been masticating upon this topic so much these past few days, rolling it around my mouth (so to speak) and have been trying to squeeze out as much flavor as i can from it... but i'm still not satisfied with what i've come up with. in fact, my brain's kinda cramped right now and the flavor of the subject, as a result of the incessant masticating, has gotten stale. yes, stale. you could say that i've perhaps gotten myself in a stale mate of sorts and i'm longing for some outside input. so now that we have that on the table, i need your notion on this. so you guys tell me...
