GOD's Intervention



Failures may come any time
and hit us out of nowhere.
They may defeat us
and put our lives in shame.

They may blow our mind
and eat up our sanity.
They may bring us frustrations
and leave us in total despair.

Love in Action


Simplymarrimye - Love in action


It's not enough to say you love a person
Words will not prove it until actions are done.

It's not enough to thank a person
Gratitude comes from an unpretentious soul.

It's not enough to give praises
Doing right is different from doing good.

It's not enough to have pure love
without a pair of hearts that beat as one.


If Nobody Discriminates...




Our world is an open avenue
open for opportunities
communications and possibilities.

There is freedom...
freedom of self expression
Let your voice be heard... speak out your emotions.

The Hurting




Tears continue flowing
my eyes never dried
the past keeps on hurting
relieving the pain, I've tried.


Seeking for true happiness
wounds of heart, I get
filling up this emptiness
is much to my regret.

Reminiscing With These Old Photographs


My 4th birthday celebration photo with family
My bandaged hands


Looking at this photograph
is a reverie of the past long gone
More than four decades ago
an accident burnt my hands.


I may not remember anything
except for the stories repeatedly told
The scars that are still visible
remind me of the pain so unbearable.

Being A Good Samaritan


New International Version (NIV)
The Parable of the Good Samaritan

25 On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
26 “What is written in the Law?” he replied. “How do you read it?”
27 He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’ ; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.”
28 “You have answered correctly,” Jesus replied. “Do this and you will live.”
29 But he wanted to justify himself, so he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
30 In reply Jesus said: “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. 
31 A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side.
32 So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. 
33 But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. 
34 He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. 
35 The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.’
36 “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?”
37 The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.”
Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.”


Simplymarrimye's On Being A Good Samaritan - Luke 10:36-37
Luke 10:36-37

Psalm 46:1


Simplymarrimye - "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." Psalm 46:1


I believe that being religious is different 
from being spiritual
 but we can be both at the same time. 
Everyone of us has own journey... 
a voyage that must be navigated
once we hold the gear of life. 

It's far from over. 
It may not be always smooth sailing
There may be waves taller than us... 
strong winds that may drag us back to the shore 
or bring us to the depths of the ocean.

Tere's handwriting 

Her handwriting is a calligraphy that defines her innate skill... 

Experts say that penmanship harbors more than the power of self-expression and bears the unique imprint of ones personality. Handwriting reveals hundreds of elements of the person's "personality and character" which includes glimpses into the subconscious mind, intellect, energy, fears, motivations, imagination, integrity, aptitudes, etc. There are over 100 individual traits revealed and an unlimited number of combinations.

A Matter of Choice

The battle has never ended
It's a continuous journey through 
LIFE's most agonizing traits
A world where no one can defeat
what is bound.
Nothing is so perfect...
just full of uncertainties.
Yet beyond any human fate
lies the unbroken promises
of the future.

Living LIFE's Difficulties

ALFONSO YLAG
- Witty and funny according to himself, but actually he is a real jerk sometimes especially when he's with close friends. Alfie or also known as PINGGOT, is currently residing in Rego Park, New York and working in Best Western. He came from a failed marriage but is blessed with two sons and a daughter. Being the father who should provide, he's constrained to stay in the US for a job opportunity.

He is single but not available... saving his love for that someone whom  he considered LOVE of his life. Quite complicated relationship... nevertheless, hopeful that GOD will hear his heart's desire for a lifetime partner. Being alone, away from his loved ones is the saddest part of his journey through life and trying to earn decent income to support and provide his children the best education is the main reason why he had to work overseas. He wants to have financial stability.
