Talking to Self (Re. Philippine Economic Situation)

The Philippine government outstanding debt to date is about 13 trillion pesos. Such amount is almost impossible to account by any matured Filipino citizen. Overwhleming Amount! Given that many essential needs are out of reach for citizens who have been in need, where has the amount gone? It seems the amount is never enough for the citizens ion need to get a bit of alleviation. If this is the case, isn't it best if government should stop borrowing funds and let life be what it used to be. Obviously, many are able afterall. If we look at how everyone is spending for the costly christmas gimmicks this season, is it not telling of an abundance of fund for the many. Parks are transformed into christmas villages where obviously expensive setup are on and many are spending just to experience the temporary mood. Who need funds if the setups were premised on logical thinking and wise spending. Maybe, it is best if the government should stop borrowing funds. ENoguh fund may be in and it may be a matter of making proper spending and investment. Please free every citizen from an automatic debt that they would never spend for their own.

On ".Till Death Do Us Part"

During a casual chat with a friend whose status returned to single because her partner got into another domestic partnership, the friend uttered the essence of the phrase "'Till Death Do Us Part". She explained that moving on is definitely going to happen with time if the death of the husband is the reason for the breakdown of the union. Moving on may not happen if by chance, time and again, you get to bump into your x-partner as you go your way through any day. It is not impossible that if your partner did not leave you because he/she has moved to life after death, you will be meeting each other somewhere, sometime and the mood will go awkward, uneasy and difficult :)

Prize for attending wake/burials

The priest who officiated a mass during a wake of the late mother of a friend implied in his homily that if you want a team to welcome you to heaven when it will be your time to die, you must attend wakes and burials. The departed who die before you will form a team that will say WELCOME to the new world should your life on earth end. Of course, you will prefer that the time is not soon.
