Short Circuit

It is okay to have a simple life.  It is okay if your phone is still a Nokia or an ALCATEL. It is okay if you don't have a Louis Vuitton or an Armani. 

It doesn't make you a lowly person if you are wearing hand-me-down clothes. It is not a mortal sin if you were never issued a passport to see the rest of the world. And it is okay if you are working in the streets doing menial jobs and everybody is seeing you. Who cares?

Whoever gave you the idea that you need all these luxuries in life to raise your standard and make you feel you are above the rest is totally delusional. And need a good spanking!

This is what election can do to family. They argue ... they fight. They even stop talking to each other. But in the end family is family.  Not even BBM or Leni can change that.

Before and After

 

Short Circuit

If Senatorial candidate Atty Luke Espiritu thought the outcome of the Senate vote showed the voter's lack of consciousness meant (loss of consciousness), then it is safe to say the voters badly needed voters' education as they lack the normal awareness of how important this election was ... and the gravity and the repercussions of their decisions were not even clear to them.

He said instead of voting for their interest and the issues that are important to them the voters instead vote like the usual rabid showbiz fans. Actor Robin Padilla top the Senate pick besting political veterans on his first try.

MInor Things That Makes You Smile

Humor can be dissected, as a frog can. True to form, philosophers, scientists, and certain left-brained comedians have been scrutinizing humor’s innards or viscera for a while seeking a serious understanding of what makes things funny.

According to one scholarly definition, people who have been working on a quantum theory of humor, something is humorous if people cognitively appraise it as funny, if it creates a positive emotion of amusement or if it makes somebody smile or makes him burst into laughter.

There are a lot of situations in life that we found it strange. As bizarre or offbeat they may be, or how trivial, irrelevant and minor it sounds to others if it tickles someone pink, there are still others in this whole wide world who appreciate it to the same degree as his. Who cares about others whose left-leaning attitude and their threshold of tolerance to small things and humor are askew and lopsided?

Here are examples of things that may sound superficial and paltry to some ... but makes you wonder ... they have managed to make you smile.

Did you ever stop to wonder why cars are lining up in a traffic jam? I hope they are not lining for a JAM, a jelly, or sweet preserves?

And did you ever wonder why they form a Q (queue) in the roundabout? 

And why are the cars tailing another car - creating a bumper-to-bumper scenario that always makes everybody ends up in a bummer-to-bummer mood?
