Thank you for always being there when I need you. When all else is not available to give me a listening shoulder, you come in handy.
Thanks for always clearing my head ... making me relax ... healing my heart ... soothing my soul ... and lifting my spirit.
As always,

No one can deny what music can do to anybody. It gives joy and happiness and it colors the dreary and dull state we are in. The once boring and drab life becomes more exciting when music is incorporated.
Music relieves stress and how often have you heard somebody saying it is one way of releasing pent-up feelings and expressing emotions, especially those left unspoken and unexpressed. It serves as a Cool Aid ... a refreshment to the mind and soul that washes away painful leftovers and residues of torn relationships.
Music lightens up our lives. They massage tired souls and lift up our moods and become cheerful.
That easy? True ... music lifts our emotions, but before accomplishing its intended goal, it must undergo these processes. First music stirs your psychological insides, it will revisit your past that you don't want to remember, reignite the conflicts and the wounds that are almost healing, and challenge the demons that you need to wrestle with and the fears that were once buried ... and now resurrected.
Music can penetrate the deep abyss of the human mind and has the power to release the tortured soul out of prison. I saw once a disturbed client ... she was listening to a Whitney Houston classic. I was lip-reading her mouth and I thought she was singing ... as if she could relate to the song. She was savoring the lyrics of the song ... and later her eyes welled up pregnant with tears ... and before the song ended she was on top of her voice telling everybody she is FREE from bondage.
Many of us didn't realize the value of music but have you ever asked yourself how music therapy aided people in medical hospitals, treatment centers, psychiatric hospitals, schools, community mental health centers, drug & alcohol programs, senior centers, nursing homes, hospice programs, and correctional facilities?
Most people in these facilities felt like they had been "jailed for life" and music became their emotional and psychological crutch to survive pain, boredom, solitude, madness, and hopelessness.
Another group of people who can benefit from music therapy are depressed patients. Depression is a common problem that causes changes in mood and loss of interest and pleasure. Other subgroups are older adults to lessen the debilitating effects of dementia, surgical patients to reduce the gnawing effects of pain, autistic children to improve their communication skills, and orthopedic patients to improve their motor functions.
Listening to music positively impacts our health and helps us recover fast when we are in the depths of nagging thoughts. Motivational music can help to improve mood by releasing dopamine neurotransmitters associated with pleasure and reward ... and reducing cortisol hormones associated with stress.
And before I forget this point ... let me emphasize this. Music provides good company. I can be alone ... and I don't complain about loved ones not showing up. As long as I have good music ... I'M GOOD!
Iba na ang kalakaran ngayong pamilyado ka na. Nagising ka sa katotohanang kailangan kang magbangon kahit ina-antok ka pa. Papungas pungas ka pa ... pero kailangan hilahin mo ang katawan mo ... dahil may mga taong umaasa sa iyo - ang mga anak mo at asawa mo.
Noon wala kang bills na iniisip ... dahil inako lahat ng parents mo ang responsibilidad. Iba na ngayon ... dahil you are practically on your own. Iisipin mo ang babayarin sa kuryente, sa tubig, sa pagkain, sa renta ng bahay, sa diaper at gatas ng mga anak mo. Kailangan mo magbanat ng buto ... para patunayan mo na isa kang good provider.
These realizations are prerequisites para ihanda mo ang sarili mo sa mga dambuhalang mga responsibilidad in the future. Ito ang totoo at tunay na laro ng buhay ... kung hindi pa maliwanag sa iyo ... aba eh dapat mahimasmasan ka na.
Dahil ano man ang iwas mo ... hindi mo magawang bale walain lang. Hindi na pwede na ituloy mo pa yong dating walang pakialam mong mga pananaw at saloobin ... hindi puedeng ipikit mo ang mga mata mo at dedma ka na lang sa mga responsibilidad mo.
Hindi puedeng magkibit balikat ka at tulakbahala ka na lang ... dahil mumultohin ka ng mga sikmurang gutom ... mg mga kuryenteng pinuputol ... ng mga labahing gabundok ... ng pakipagpatintero mo sa mga naniningil ... ng refrigirator na puro tubig ang laman.
Welcome sa masalimuot na laro ng buhay. At huwag kang hihirit pa at magtanong ... bakit ako?
Hindi lang naman ikaw iho ... lahat tayo.
1. Are you not aware that your FAMILY is the envy of any FRACTURED and FRAGMENTED household?
2. Are you unaware that your HOUSE is a fantasy of any VAGRANTS and the HOMELESS?
3. Are you unaware that your being in pink of HEALTH is on the wishlist of every SICK and INFIRMED?
4. And most of all have you realized that your WORK is the jealousy of the JOBLESS and the UNEMPLOYED ... and those who were LAID OFF?
Be GRATEFUL with what you have ... and thank God you were BLESSED!
Little did they know that talent and ambition were not enough. Over time because of unhealthy habits, they start LEAKING ... wait till they squandered the opportunities that were given and prepared for them in a silver platter.
They are into vices - smoking, drugs, wine, and women. They think ... they are here only for a good time ... and that the good time is forever. They want to savor the good time till it is gone.
Somebody has to teach them responsibility, sensitivity, perseverance, and tenacity. They also need direction, honesty, and discipline.
Whatever little successes they made at the start of their career ... it was a forewarning ... a mini preview of bad and worst things cascading right before our very eyes.
1. Be careful about having relationships with people with no EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE. They will never understand you, they will personalize everything and you will never be seen or heard.
2. Be careful about having relations with people who can't REGULATE THEIR EMOTIONS. You will be at the mercy of their rages and bad moods.
3. Be careful about having relationships with people with NO SELF-AWARENESS. They have no idea how their behavior affects the people around them. So it is a matter of time before you get hurt.
4. Be careful about having relationships with people without EMPATHY. They will never see or care about how you feel.
If no one has ever told you, I am telling you now. Look for people in your life with emotional intelligence, self-awareness, empathy, and the ability to regulate their emotions or you will be at the mercy of their dysfunction and pay the price for their immaturity and lack of growth.
Your advice was noted, Ma'am!
