Dear Ate Charing,


Sumulat po ako upang ibahagi sa mga mambabasa ang kwento ng aking kaibigan. Itago na lang po natin silang, Jack and Jill.

Si Jack at Jill ay magkakaklase sa kolehiyo simula first year. Si Jack ay taga-probinsya. Naka-flat tops ang buhok at may bigote pa ito. Si Jill naman ay isang "Manila Girl". Ubod siya ng ganda. PERIOD.

Jill: Nyay. Probinsyano!
Jack: Gwapo naman!
Jill: Che!

Lagi silang magkaaway noong sila ay 1st year. Magkatabi silang umupo dahil alphabetically arranged ang seat plan sa halos lahat ng class. Naalala pa nga ni Jill ang pagpapasa ng mga porn cds ni Jack at ng isa pa nitong classmate kaya inis na inis ito sa kanya lagi. Si Jack at Jill pala ng mga panahong ito ay relasyon sa ibang tao.

Noong 2nd year na sila, medyo nagbago ang lahat. Medyo naging close sila. Nandun pa din ang asaran, pero minimal na lang. Isang araw..

Jill: (sa phone) Nandyan ba si Jack?
Jack: O, bakit?
Jill: Diba malapit lang bahay niyo sa ABS-CBN?
Jack: OO, bakit?
Jill: Pwede mo ba akong samahan sa Bantay Bata? May project kasi ako sa Student Council.
Jack: Ok sige.

Sa mga panahong ito, nagkakasama din ang dalawa sa library kasama ang iba pa nilang classmate upang mag-aral para sa kanilang exams (prelims and finals). Ilang araw din silang pabalik-pabalik sa Bantay Bata dahil sa dami ng requirements dito. Lagi na rin silang magka-usap sa fone.

Hanggang sa kalaunan..

Jill: (on phone) Ano?
Jack: Anong ano?
Jill: Ano na nga tayo?
Jack: Sabi ko sa ex ko na hindi muna ako magkaka-gf.
Jill: Ah, eh di wala na. (iyak)
Jack: Hindi ko alam.
Jill: Eh may usapan pala kayo eh. (iyak)
Jack: Ewan ko.
Jill: Bahala ka na nga. Kasalanan ko bang may nararamdaman ako sayo.
Jack: Ako din naman eh.
Jill: (iyak)
Jack: (iyak)

Naging sila na. Itinago nila ang relasyong ito. Hindi ito maaring malaman ng iba. Dahil si Jack ay tunay na lalake at si Jill ay lalake na babae ang puso.

Masaya naman ay kanilang naging pagsasama. Nagpapalitan pa sila ng mga love letters nila. Nagsusulatan ng notes habang nasa class.

sa isang sulat ni Jack kay Jill:

"Kung sinasabi mong hindi kita mahal, fuck you! Wala akong pakialam kung bading ka. Hindi ko nga rin alam kung bakit ako na-inlove sa bading. Basta ang alam ko, mahal kita."

May mga ka-naughtyhan things din. Masaya sila. Masayang-masaya. Minsan, sila ay nasa school ng linggo upang magkita at mag-aral.

Jack: Nandyan na parents ko. Sinusundo na ako.
Jill: Ok sige. Alis na din ako.

Lumalakad palabas ng gate si Jill ng biglang dumaan ang kotse nila Jack sa harap nito. Nagkatinginan sila.

Jack: (text) Hinding-hindi kita iiwan.
Jill: (text) Ako din.

Ngunit minsan, dumarating ang kanilang pag-aawayan.

Jack: Sabi ko na sayo eh. (sabay suntok sa tiyan)

Naglabasan ang mga classmates nila sa room

Jill: (iyak)
Jack: Kaw naman kasi eh.
Jill: (iyak)
Jack: (naiiyak) Sorry na. (sabay kiss, punas luha ni Jill).

Ilang beses din naganap ang mga ganitong pangyayari. Minsan mas malala pa. Minsan sa public place pa. Hanggang sa isang araw nag-away sila ng sobra sa loob ng classroom. Inawat na sila ng mga kaibigan. Lumabas si Jill sa classroom.

Jill: Tawagin niyo siya. Gusto ko siya makausap.
Classmate: Wag na muna, baka mag-away lang kayo.
Jill: (texting Jack) Labas ka. Usap nga tayo. Sorry.
Jack: (on text) Hindi na. Tapos na tayo.
Jill: (text) Ano ba? Mag-usap tayo.
Jill: (text) Hoy, ano ba?
Jill: (text) Please naman.

After 1 year and 9 months, nagbreak na sila.

Lumipas ang araw at birthday na ni Jill. Nagpunta ito sa bahay ni Jack kahit na hindi na sila. Mahal pa rin ni Jill si Jack. Habang nagluluto ng pagkain si Jack, napansin ni Jill ang isang cellphone na hindi naman kay Jack. Binuksan ang inbox.

Jill: (hinagis ang cellphone) Ano ito?! Kala ko ba.
Jack: Bakit kasi nangialam ka?
Jill: (hysterical) Tarantado ka. Shit ka. Sakit!
Jack: Tama na.

Umakyat si Jill sa kwarto at nag-lock ngh pinto. Pinilit itong binuksan ni Jack. Nadatnan niyang iyak nang iyak si Jill.

Jack: (iyak) Ano ba? Tama na.
Jill: (struggle) Sabi mo walang iba.
Jack: Hindi mo kasi naiintindihan.
Jill: (pinapound niya si Jack) Niloko mo ako! Niloko mo ako!
Jack: (yakap-yakap si Jill) Tama na. Di ko naman gusto ito. Matagal na kita dapat hiniwalayan. Nalaman ni Mama at Papa. Nabasa ni Mama mga sulat mo saakin. I-didisown ako ni Papa pag hindi raw kita hiniwalayan. Mahirap to para saakin.
Jill: (iyak) Wala na rin naman akong magagawa. Alis na ako. (kiniss si Jack)

Simula noon, hindi na sila magkasamang mag-aral sa library, hindi na sila sabay aalis ng school, hindi na sila sabay kumain ng lunch. Sa classroom na lamang sila nagkakatabi muli. Hindi naman kinaila ni Jill na may nangyayari pa rin sa kanila ni Jack kahit wala na sila. Kasi nga daw, mahal pa rin niyo ito.

Jack: Wag mo na kasi akong mahalin. Iba na.
Jill: Hindi ko kaya eh. Ikaw sabi ng puso ko eh.
Jack: Puso puso. Hindi naman kasi puso ginagamit sa pagmamahal eh. Utak!
Jill: Anong hindi, eh bakit masakit dito? (pointing sa dibdib/puso area)

Hanggang ngayon, ganun pa rin ang estado nila. Si Jack pa rin at ang kanyang gf. Si Jill naman, kahit madami ng dumaang ibang lalaki (ngunit hindi naging sila) si Jack pa rin ang gustong makasama.

Sana po ay naibigan ninyo ang kwento ng aking kaibigan. Marami pong salamat.

Lubos na gumagalang,
goddess.

******

Imposible nga ba ang ganitong uri ng relasyon?
Ang relasyon ba dapat Lalake-Babae lamang?

Kasalanan ba ang relasyong Babae-Babae o Lalake-Lalake?
Sabi ng mga Kristiyano, OO, bawal ang ganitong relasyon.
Buti na lang Buddhist ako.

Ang pag-ibig ba ay ginawa lang para sa Babae-Lalakeng relasyon?
Kung hindi pag-iibigan ang nararamdaman nina Jack at Jill, eh ano?
Libog? Madaming babaeng pakantot dyan! Madaming lalakeng pachupa dyan!

Sino tayo para sabihing hindi totoo ang pag-ibig nilang dalawa?
Pag umiiyak ang lalake dahil nasasaktan niya ang bading, hindi ito dahil sa pag-ibig?
Pag nagsusulat ng love letter ang lalake at sinasaad ang buong puso niyang pagmamahal dito, masasabi ba nating, peke ito?

Sabi nga ni Jack kung di ka naniniwala, "Fuck You!"

Hindi ko sinasabing perfect ang relasyon nilang dalawa. Tignan mo, naghiwalay din sila. May gf na itong si Jack. Kung iisipin mo, hindi ba ito nangyari dahil din sa pagmamahalan ng dalawa? Si Jack, hiniwalayan niya si Jill dahil sa alam nitong pareho lang silang masasaktan at may mas deserving sa pagmamahal nito. Si Jill, pinalaya si Jack kahit masakit kasi alam niyang doon siya magiging masaya. Tanggap niya na may mga bagay na tanging babae lang ang makakapagbigay sa lalake. Ngunit kahit na sa ganun, patuloy pa rin niya itong minamahal.

Ang relasyong babae-babae o lalake-lalake ay pareho lamang sa mga heterosexual na pagmamahalan. Ang kinaiba lang, sa babae-babae, ni isa sa kanila ay walang titi. Sa lalake-lalake naman, ni isa sa kanila, walang puke. Sagutin niyo nga ito, sino ba nagsabi na ang puke ay para sa titi lamang?

Hanga ako sa mga lalakeng may mahal na bading. Hindi dahil pinatulan ang katulad kong bading, ngunit sa kanya mo makikita ang tunay na pagmamahal. Nakuha nilang pumasok sa isang komplikadong relasyon. Kahit ano man ang masabi at sinasabi ng iba, wala siyang pakialam dito. Sila ay ang mga taong pinakamarunong magmahal, dahil sa ang pagmamahal nila ay hindi naka-base sa kasarian ng isang tao. Nagmamahal sila dahil sa mahal nila ang tao at hindi dahil sa mahal nila ito dahil ito ay babae.

Hanga din ako sa mga bading na nagmamahal, kahit alam nilang isang araw, mawawala ang lalakeng mahal nila, minamahal at minamahal pa rin ito. Hindi lang yun, magaling pa silang chumupa! Hahaha.

Hair-do's!

I've just finished ung bago kong kinababaliwang reality show.. Wala pa siya dito sa pinas.. Sa DVD ko lang napanuod.. 1st was Top Design.. and last was Shear Genius..

panalo! parang siyang Hair Asia ang level.. Naku pag ito ay na-franchise ng Pinas, sino kaya ang magiging host nito? Well, depende sa network na bibili..

Pag channel 2, Fanny Serrano ang host nito. Pag channel 7, sino nga ba? One thing's for sure, si Louie Ignacio ang direktor nito. So, good luck! At pag channel 9 ang bumili, asahan nyo ng si Gandang Ricky Reyes yan ang magiging host nito. Sinong bet nyo?

About hair-do's, bob ngayon ang inaachieve kong look. Dati kong hair ay mala katie holmes. Tapos naging mas bet ko na ang Gretchen Barretto bob. Tapos after a week, Victoria Beckham bob na ang bet ko! Nasa buhok ko kaya ang susi ng aking success patungo sa pagkakaroon ng lalakeng gwapo? Tignan mo si Katie, may Tom. Si Victoria, may ultra tangina hot na si David. Si Gretchen, un, si Gretchen may mabait na asawa! Hahaha.. Pag humaba na ulit ang buhok ko, try ko ulit i-achieve ang Gretchen Barretto bob. At pag super humaba na ang hair ko, the ultimate bob na talaga ng i-aachieve ko. The Nancy Kwan bob, the signature bob of Vidal Sassoon! Taray ng lola mo. Asian! Napansin pa siya ni Vidal Sassoon! (Hindi shampoo si Vidal Sassoon ah!!)

RED na tayo ngayon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They're Back!

Nandito na sila muli! Spice Girls! Waaaahhh!
With their new music video - Headlines (Friendship Never Ends)

Ang video parang behind the scene sa isang magazine shoot.
Parang may shoot lang for Vanity Fair!

Ang nagbago lang, ang kanilang istura at fashion.
Sophisticated na ang mga lola mo ngayon!
Gone are the Jolina Magdangal days of fashion!

May nagsasabi na boring daw ang opening salvo ng mga lola ninyo with this video.
Anong gusto nyo, parang "Wannabe" ang ganap nila ngayon?
Hello? Maturity?
Pero yung song, nandun pa rin yung "Tatak Spice Girls!"
Alam mo agad na sila ang kumanta nun.

Ganun pa rin sila and I love it!
Ganun pa rin ang kilos ni Mel B.
Panalo pa rin ang singing parts ni Mel C.
Pa-sweet pa din ang Emma.
Naka-red pa rin si Geri.
At least ngayon, medyo mahaba na ang singing part na si Victoria.
Panalo ang diamond dress ni Victoria!

Sino pala kayo sa Spice Girls?
Wag na kayong magkaila!
Lahat ng bading feeling nila isa sila sa mga spice girls!
Ako, bet ko si Mel C.
Siya kasi ang magaganda ang singing parts, so pagkakanta kami, akin ang magandang part! I love the second voice especially sa may dulong part "Viva Forever".

Enjoy the video.
Sing a long na din during your second viewing.
Sa playlist ko rin pala sa may sidebar, spice girl songs.



Headlines - Spice Girls

The time is now or never to fit the missing piece
To take this on together you make me feel complete
We fall into the future and through the looking glass
The light shines over our heads and so it comes to pass

To go beyond the surface to reach into your soul
This love is not for mending my heart has told me so
I’ll hold on to my hero with faith and love to fly
The power to imagine will keep this love alive

Let’s make the headlines loud and true
I wanna tell the world I’m giving it all to you
Let’s the headlines loud and clear
The best thing suddenly happened when you are here
If I lost my way you’d carry me home
Take me all the way to heaven never leave it alone
And it’s just like everything matters when you are near

And it feels so good every step of the way
Your love is alive and it’s making me sing
I could fly wanna cry want the whole world to know
We are together come on baby lets go

And if it’s to be spoken we’ll fall upon the pain
Spat it out true devotion is all we need to say

Let’s make the headlines loud and true
I wanna tell the world I’m giving it all to you
Let’s make the headlines loud and clear
The best thing suddenly happened when you are here
If I lost my way you’d carry me home
Take me all the way to heaven never leave it alone
And it’s just like everything matters when you are near

Let’s make the headlines true this time
There’s no hiding from this magical state of mind
If I lost my way you’d carry me home
Take me all the way to heaven never leave it alone
And it’s just like everything matters when you are near

Let’s make the headlines loud and true
Let’s make the headlines
Cause I’m giving it all
I’m giving it all to you

Mistaken Identity

Noong October 26, nadukot ang fone ko. Habang ako'y nag-aabang ng FX na masasakyan. Kung sino man siya, sana natulungan ko siya. Pero good luck sayo, ipapablock ko yang fone ko sa NTC! Malas nya! (kung siya ang gumagamit..) Malas ng binentahan nya (pag nabenta nya sa iba!) Pakasaya ka/kayo.. May 15 days pa kayo para gamitin yan!

Saan dyan ang mistaken identity? Wala pa kasi. Nagmamadali? May taxi bang nakaabang?

Noong gabi, I met up with friend. Medyo late na rin nakauwi. Alam mo naman sa Quezon Ave pag mga 12 na. Nagkalat ang mga ate mong maghilig mamulot. mga pick-up stick gurls.. Gurls = Badiday! Dun ako nag-aabang ng jeep pa Lawton. Near Welcome Rotonda kami. Ng biglang may dumaan na SUV. Tangina! Napagkalaman ba naman akong pokpok! To think magkaiba kami ng outfit ng mga ate mo ah. Hindi ako naka-puke shorts or naka-skirt! Sobrang parang slow motion ang pangyayari. Grabe. Sobrang narerecall ko siya in details. Sobrang ang sakit ng loob ko nun. Ung parang sinaksak ka! Shit. I have nothing against sa mga ate ko naman. Kung dun ba sila masaya, go! Hindi naman ako nagpapakain sa kanila diba? Nakakainis lang ung mga tao!

Mahirap palang maging bading na nag-aabang ng sasakyan paauwi.

Theater Talk with Floy Quintos

<--- That's her (her talaga diba?), the yoga instructor Floy Quintos. Ching! Naka-lotus position talaga. Very Buddhist. Hindi naman ata siya Buddhist, ndi ko yun nabasa sa binigay na handouts about his life. Sabi nga nya, "Yan alam nyo na 46 na ako!" Hindi halata ah.

The talk obviously was about theater (naman, the title!). Floy (first name basis diba?) discussed the need for theater, why do we need to appreciate it, how to critique a play/production (elements of the play, etc.) and how bloggers can help the industry.

Nakakatuwa yung mga anecdotes and kwento nya about sa mga production na he did and yung mga napanuod nya. Honestly, ZsaZsa was the last production I've seen (except for AA's plays, of course). Kaya wit talaga me maka-relate sa Romvlvs. Mega asks si Direk Floy sa mga bloggers kung ano bang plays ang napanuod chu chu chu chu. Dead ma ang majority. Pero ng sinabi ang magic words, "ZsaZsa Zaturnah!" Yan mega talk tv ang mga tao. Galak na galak talaga ang lahat. Nabuhayan ng pag-asa.

Flash back: Hindi talaga dapat ako kasama sa kasiyahang iyon. May prior engagement kasi ako (celebrity?!). Eh na-cancel the day before this, so mega register ako. Nakita ko ang confirmation sa email ko, ngunit na-delete ko dahil sa Junk Mail pumasok. So wit ko alam kung ano na. Email akech kay Migs. Sabi niya he'll wait for my confirmation. Naka-email akech ng confirmation ko pero late na. Tapos ndi nadukutan pa ako ng fone nung morning (26th), so good luck diba? Hindi ko talaga marereceive ang tawag ng confirmation. So sa day mismo ng event, I texted Jhey. He gave me Gibbs's number. Yun tapos everything else is history. Chos!

Going back. Sa talk na ito, narealize ko na kulang pa ang kaalaman ko sa teatro. Dapat na talaga akong manuod muli ng mga produksyon. Dami kong namimiss na bagay bagay. Natapos ang talk, raffle na! Diba taray?! At ang unang tinawag sa raffle ay si RICHARD RAYMOND. Nakakaloka!!!! Nanalo akech ng CCP bag. Pero ang bongga ang ang effort na CD from Gibbs. Major burning talaga. Gosh. "Ang minsan ang minahal ay ako..."

Lafangan moment na sa rooftop. Chika chika with people. Siyanga pala, si Ederic nga pala ang partner ko sa sharing moment! Chika chika. Picture picture. Nag-coffee after sa Baang. Kasama namin si James, our new found friend!

Thanks sa organizers ng event. Pinoycentric. MGG. Gibbs. Congrats! Next time ulit!

UMPOG SA PADER



(click the picture para makita yung ginagawa ng pix)

ganyan ang gusto kong gawin sa sarili ko at this very moment.
i-umpog ang ulo sa pader!
in short, gusto kong matauhan.

kelan ba tayo dapat matauhan?
pag hindi na kayang magtiis?
pag labis nang nasasaktan?
pag hindi mo na kaya?
actually, LAHAT.

some years ago pa nga dapat ako natauhan.

choice ko naman na matauhan diba?

pero i chose not to.

well, kinaya ko
(ulol! sino niloko mo?)
well, tiniis ko
(tiniis mo talaga!)
well, pinilit ko
(tanga ka kasi!)

putang ina!

TANGA na kung TANGA!

pucha! ang sakit sakit na! mas kakayanin ko pa ang sakit ng pagkakaumpog sa pader kaysa sa sakit na nararamdam ng puso ko ngayon!

hindi na kasi dapat humantong pa sa ganito eh.
hindi ko na dapat pinagpatuloy pa.
matagal ko na dapat itong pinatay.

mali, dapat siguro sariling puso ko na lang ang pinatay ko!

akala ko naubos na ang mga luha ko dati pa.

akala ko naiiyak ko na ang lahat.

meron pa pala.

hindi ko alam why i chose this.
hindi ko alam bakit pinili kong masaktan.
hindi ko alam bakit pinili ko pang magmahal.


naalala ko tuloy..
SIYA: hindi kasi puso ang ginagamit sa pagmamahal.
AKO: kung hindi puso, bakit masakit to! (pointing to my heart)


pagkatapos kong i-post to,
matatauhan na kaya ako?

sana.

Piolo and Sam

(The Saga Continues)

Alam naman nating lahat na thanks to Adobe Photoshop ang larawang ito. Ngunit hindi tungkol dyan ang postsina ko.

Wit talaga nag-isistopchina ang tsimaks tungkol ditey kela Piolo at Sam.

Ngayon namanchi, ang "date" nilang dalawa sa Sofitel na na-sightchung ni Manay Lolit Solis. If I may quotable quote her, "Magkadikit yong pisngi 'tapos bumubulong 'yong isa dun sa tenga nung isa." Congratulations to Manay.

Nang lumabas ang balitang itey sa column ni Manay, todo labas ng statements of the year ang dalawang involve. Si Piolo, according to Timex, eh may pictorial ala America's Next Top Model with noted fashion photographer, Raymund Isaac. Xempre, may I say din si Angel Locsin na mission impossible na nandun si Piolo sa Sofitel kasi magka-joma ang dalawa sa nasabing pictorial. Itech naman si Sam, through his manager (akala ko nga maglalabas ng statement ang Swift Hotdog eh), eh nsa Essentuals Toni & Guy ang Sam at nagpaparlor!

Sa makashuwid, ang lumalabas, "two places at the same time" ang drama nitong dalawa. hmm. panalo ang super powers nila ah. or may magaling silang impersonator dalawa. at take note, wit lang magaling na impersonator, makyoman pa! sa sofitel nagdedate eh.

Sa kwentong ito, may nagsisinungaling obviously. 2 versus 1 ang drama. Sinong kampo krame ang nagsesay ng trulala? Sinech naman ang liar liar go to hell.

Sabi nga ni Manay, nagtataka daw siya bakit biglang bigamus na ang issue paper. Nagkwento lang naman daw siya ng na-sight nya. Bakit parang ang OA daw ng reaksyon ng kabilang panig? Bigla akong nagmonologue at sinabi ko, "Oo nga naman."

Kelan matatapos itech? Or ang mas dapat na tanong, "Kelan sila aamin?" Hahaha.

In all fairness, kung sila talaga, why not diba? Eto na ang loveteam na kakabog sa lahat ng loveteam!

So Much for "Racism"

Watch the video below.
Panalo!

Realization

Everyday, we are faced with choices/options.
Should we choose this or that?
Is this better than that?
Or is it the other way around?

Sometimes, we can decide right there and then.
But sometimes, it takes us days/months/years.

Recently, I've come to my senses.
I know now what I want.

Ngayong gabi ko lang ako nakapagdesisyon.
Matagal-tagal rin bago ito.


















Mas bet ko ang Chicken McDo kaysa sa Jollibee Chicken Joy!

Pag late na kasi ako nakakauwi,
at pag sinusundo me ni pudang or mudang,
lagi akong nagtatake-out.

Laging McDo ang natatake-out ko kasi yun ang on the way.
Pero dahil takam na takam na ako sa chicken joy, Jollibee kami nagtake-out.

Dun ko narealize nung kinakain ko na siya sa bahay na mali ako ng desisyon.
Hindi na ito ang chicken joy na kinalakihan ko.
Hindi na siya malinamnam.
Hindi na siya malasa.

Mas masarap na para saakin ang Chicken McDo.

Pwede pa lang magbago ang panlasa ng isang tao noh?
To think, Jollibee gurl ako simula pagkabata ah.

ANG TANONG..
Kayo, ano mas bet nyo?
Chicken McDo or Jollibee Chicken Joy pa rin?

Ang Taba Ko!

Wala naman ata saatin na choice ang maging mataba.
Kahit anong sabihin natin, hindi maganda ang mataba.

Kaya nga ako nag-didiet, kasi gusto kong pumayat.
Hindi naman ako mataba, gusto ko lang pumayat pa ng onti.
Pero gusto ko kumain.
Kaya ang diet ko, yung no carb diet.
You can eat all you want, basta walang carb.
Pag ganun kasi, hindi ko pinaparusahan ang sarili ko.

Meron naman, exag ang pagpapayat.
Kagaya nitong si Isabelle Caro.














Yan ang famous campaign ng Nolita, Italian clothing brand and designer.
Marami siyempre ang naloka dito.
Backed by the Ministry of Health naman pala tong ad na ito kaya pala mapangahas ang Nolita na ito.

Please also watch this..



Nasight nyo ang boobang ni ateng?


Gusto nyo pa bang pumayat?
Ako OO.
Pumayat naman eh, hindi maging KITE!

Buddhism in Daily Life

Human Revolution

Buddhism is characterized by an emphasis on the possibility of inner transformation--a process of bringing forth our full human potential. There is a common perception that the discipline and focus necessary for such a process requires a set of ideal circumstances not available to most. Nichiren Buddhism, however, teaches that it is only by squarely facing the challenges that confront us amidst the harsh contradictions of society that we can carry out the task of changing our own lives and the world for the better.

"Human revolution" is the term used by second Soka Gakkai President Josei Toda to describe a fundamental process of inner transformation whereby we break through the shackles of our "lesser self," bound by self-concern and the ego, growing in altruism toward a "greater self" capable of caring and taking action for the sake of others--ultimately all humanity.

As SGI President Daisaku Ikeda explains: "There are all sorts of revolutions: political revolutions, economic revolutions, industrial revolutions, scientific revolutions, artistic revolutions...but no matter what one changes, the world will never get any better as long as people themselves...remain selfish and lacking in compassion. In that respect, human revolution is the most fundamental of all revolutions, and at the same time, the most necessary revolution for humankind."

The question of how to change in a positive direction is one which has spawned countless theories, religions and publishing empires. Certainly, self-discipline and effort can enable us to make positive change, for example by starting to exercise regularly. But the willpower required is often hard to maintain; our self-control may slip at a crucial moment because we have not addressed the underlying, inner causes of our behavior.

Human revolution is the work of transforming our lives at the very core. It involves identifying and challenging those things which inhibit the full expression of our positive potential and humanity. Nichiren Buddhism is based on belief in a pure, positive and enlightened condition of life which exists equally within all people. This life state of "Buddhahood" is characterized by the qualities of compassion, wisdom and courage which enable us to create something of value from any situation. Nichiren realized that the deepest process of change and purification takes place when we bring forth this state, and he taught the practice of chanting "Nam-myoho-renge-kyo" as the direct and immediate means for accessing and experiencing it.

This Buddha nature expresses itself in concrete ways. First, we gain the conviction that our life contains limitless possibilities and a profound sense of our human dignity. Second, we develop the wisdom to understand that things that we previously thought impossible are in fact possible. And third, we develop a powerful vitality that allows us to tackle our problems with a sense of inner liberation. We are thus empowered to pursue our own human revolution, striving to improve our "self" from yesterday to today and making the "self" of tomorrow better still.

In some traditions of Buddhism, interpretations of the law of cause and effect can encourage a focus on negative past causes. The obstacles and challenges encountered in life may be seen as requiring lifetimes of effort to "clean up." The message of the Lotus Sutra and Nichiren Buddhism is that through faith and practice we can reveal Buddhahood: our highest, most enlightened state of life right now, just as we are. This enlightened wisdom enables us to grasp the reality that circumstances which may seem the most unfortunate, be it seemingly incurable illness or bereavement, can actually provide the best opportunities for tackling our human revolution and the impetus for the greatest personal growth.

When we look beyond our personal concerns and take action for the sake of others, this process is strengthened and accelerated. An experience which previously seemed like an unjust burden can become the key to finding the purpose of our lives, as we learn how to help others struggling in a similar situation.

This individual process of human revolution is the very key to sparking change on a global scale. For, as Daisaku Ikeda writes, "A great human revolution in just a single person will help achieve a change in the destiny of a nation and, further, will cause a change in the destiny of all humankind." Taking responsibility for transforming our own lives is the first step toward creating a human society based on compassion and respect for the dignity of all people's lives.

Mooncake Festival

The Mid-Autumn Festival (Simplified Chinese: 中秋节; Traditional Chinese: 中秋節; pinyin: zhōngqiūjié), also known as the Moon Festival, is a popular East Asian celebration of abundance and togetherness, dating back over 3,000 years to China's Zhou Dynasty. In Malaysia and Singapore, it is also sometimes referred to as the Lantern Festival or "Mooncake Festival", which is just the same as "Mid-Autumn Festival" but with different names.

The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month of the Chinese calendar (usually around mid- or late-September in the Gregorian calendar), a date that parallels the Autumn Equinox of the solar calendar. This is the ideal time, when the moon is at its fullest and brightest, to celebrate the abundance of the summer's harvest. The traditional food of this festival is the mooncake, of which there are many different varieties.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the two most important holidays in the Chinese calendar (the other being the Chinese Lunar New Year), and is a legal holiday in several countries. Farmers celebrate the end of the summer harvesting season on this date. Traditionally, on this day, Chinese family members and friends will gather to admire the bright mid-autumn harvest moon, and eat moon cakes and pomeloes together.

Accompanying the celebration, there are additional cultural or regional customs, such as:

Eating moon cakes outside under the moon
Putting pomelo rinds on one's head
Carrying brightly lit lanterns
Burning incense in reverence to deities including Chang'e
Planting Mid-Autumn trees
Lighting lanterns on towers
Fire Dragon Dances

Yipee!

Happy birthday to me.
Happy birthday to me.
Happy birthday, happy birthday.
Happy Birthday to me!

It's my 24th Birthday!!
