missing each other
head and heart in a turmoil
where are we headed?
everyday anguished
everyday so excited
oh, so bittersweet!
with hearts listening,
rollercoasters words can be.
magical journey.

coffee and cigarettes
coffee and cigarettes upon waking....
contemplating the thin line between love and hate...
always i am me
what you got is what you saw
no hiding from you
contemplating the thin line between love and hate...
always i am me
what you got is what you saw
no hiding from you

440th Pampanga Day
Happy Pampanga Day!
Nanu ing masaia quing aldong ini? A wa, 440th founding anniversary pin pala.
Cutang cu mu. Itamung Capampangan queti Pampanga, dapat tamu pin uari maging masaya? Masaia ia uari ing mamamate na ing quecatamung Amanu? Masaia uari ing deng alus angang cultural activities, commercialized na?
Masaia uari ing catutuan a reng pipagaralan ta queti mismung Indung Tibuan babaual da la reng anac tamu quing pamangamit king Amanung Sisuan? Papamaraian do pa!
E uari atin nang DepEd Memorandum? Ituru ing Capampangan careng pipagaralan queti Indung Tibuan. Ing cutang, deng materiales uari quing pamanuru, macasadia no ngan? Deng macasadia, istu no man caia? Nung mali la mu rin deng ituru, e uari mas maragul a casalanan ita? Anti da naman sinaup macamate quing Amanung Sisuan.
Metung a talaturu, tiru ne ing sitentang anac ngening abac, sitenta na naman ning gatpanapun. Gamitan de ing amanung meturu anga quing dagul la. Ali da man abalu a e istu ing gagamitan da. Tuneng macalungcut. Tuneng macagaga.
Ngara, enrichment kanu ini. E wari “enrichment means addition of new vocabulary for new concepts, not replacement of old vocabulary by new vocabulary” anang Steve Quakenbush, SIL. Macananu iang pamagpaiaman ning quecatamung Amanu ing pamalitan ta la deng amanung sadiang atin ta naman pala?
“Our language is a very wide language and the words we currently have can be used to form more synonyms to whatever words we want to enrich without us borrowing, by just putting affixes around and in one word you can make so many synonyms...” ana pin Leh Sarjareh.
Ot ali taya ituru deng sadiang quecatamung Amanu? Ot e ta la gamitan deta careng materiales a gamitan quing pamanuru ning Amanung Sisuan careng pipagaralan?
Patse mete ing quecatamung Amanu, mete mu naman ing panga-Capampangan tamu.
Language, Script, and Culture are the things that define a people. If the language dies, the identity dies too.

Disiplina 3 on GNP
Disiplina......
isang salitang napakasimple ngunit bakit sadyang napakahirap isapuso....(part four)
Motorcycle drivers. Bakit hindi mag-helmet? Bakit pilit nagsasakay ng lagpas sa dalawa? Bakit ang hilig sumingit at mag-overtake?
Simple lang. Mag-helmet. Siguraduhing may lisensya at rehistro. Sumunod sa traffic rules. Mahirap bang gawin yun? Buhay ang kadalasang kapalit ng paglabag sa mga simpleng patakaran na ito.
Disiplina sa sarili...........maliit na bagay pero napakahalaga........

My first try with Butilya. Edited by Ka Elysian Tulang Liham and Ka Oliver Carlos.
A month ago, I read Ka Oliver Carlos' post about this uniquely Kapampangan poetry form started by Ka Ernie Turla. As explained on the post, it has three stanzas consisting of four lines with the number of syllables patterned as 2-6-8-8. Somehow identical to or a variation of the Tanaga, a Japanese traditional poetry form. In Ka Oliver's words,
....pitungi-tungi lang miyuyugne estropa a magsilbing butil (like beads/grains) ning kaisipan a lalong magtumingkad uli’ng sasalamin la king Kulturang Kapampangan at bibye lang mayap a payul at guyabnan king mayap a panugali a balamu wari kwintas lang misasabit king batal da ring makabasa...
The stanzas are related and serves as beads or grains of thought which mirrors the Kapampangan Culture. Also, it gives advice and guide for good manners.
My deepest thanks to you both. I'll try to make another one. :) Ali cayu pu sana sasaua quing pamangutang ampo pamagpasaup cu pu quecayu. Am truly blessed for having your friendship.

Debate and Discussion on GNP
"A debate is a contest, or, perhaps, like a game, where two or more speakers present their arguments intent on persuading one another. Men have been debating with one another since the beginning of time when the serpent first debated with Eve the benefits of eating certain fruits in the Garden," says Triviumpursuit.com.
Bakit kailangan natin mag-debate dito? Hindi ba nagkakaisa naman tayo sa adhikaing nakalagay sa group description?
Sabi naman ni Freedictionary.com, "Discussion is consideration of a subject by a group; an earnest conversation. A formal discourse on a topic; an exposition."
Hindi ba natin kayang gawin ito sa ngalan ng pagkakaisa? Hangad nating itaas ang antas ng kaalaman at pag-iiisip ng ating mga kababayan upang tayo bilang mamamayan at bilang isang bansa ay umunlad. Maraming matatalino sa grupo na sadyang malaki ang magagawa para ito ay ating makamit.
Bakit kailangan may manalo o matalo sa bawat paksang pinag-uusapan? Ipakita natin ang kagandahan ng ating kapaniwalan. Nasa taong nagbabasa ang desisyon. Why do we have to ram our beliefs to others?
Napakasayang makipag-palitan ng kuru-kuro. Kaniya-kaniyang paniniwala at pagpapaliwanag sa kagandahan nang ating pinaniniwalaan. Bakit natin sinisira sa pamamagitan ng paggamit nang hindi magagandang mga salita at tono? Sa katalinuhan ng mga nandito, nakakalimutan nga ba ang pagiging magalang sa pakikipagkapwa-tao?
Is superior intelligence an excuse to be disrespectful? Especially to those who does not share our point of view? Isn't it that the more we learn, the more we become humble? Because with more knowledge, we are made more aware of our smallness compared to the greatness and vastness of the world we are temporarily inhabiting.
