Relationship 101- Honesty

In the children’s story “The Emperor’s New Clothes,” the characters, including the Emperor, have been fooled by their own liking when they failed to acknowledge that the Emperor is naked and not wearing his new wardrobe, which according to the tailors (who are actually thieves) can be only seen by the wise ones, and so as not to look stupid, they have been pretending that they are seeing the new clothes until one innocent child shouts that the Emperor is not wearing anything. It is only then when they realize that they have been cheated and have acted so stupid for not admitting that the Emperor is undressed.

The Hypocrisy of Mankind

I don’t understand why some people these days like to play the role of a critic. I wonder what have they done to think so high of themselves and believe that their opinion is always right, when in fact they don’t have any essential contribution to make this world a better place to live in other than ranting about anything they don’t like.

Just Show ‘Em What You’re Made Of

when the world is against you; when no one believes in you; when you are not appreciated; don’t think that they are rude, they are just being polite to you by not telling you directly to back off.

A love letter in the tune of Backstreet Boys’ songs

I don’t wanna waste another day, keeping it inside is killing me coz all I ever wanted comes right down to you; I wish that I could find the words to say that I feel so inconsolable right now. I just want you to know that I still care about you. Maybe I have a poor eyesight because all I see is heaven in your eyes and that I feel in heaven when I look in your eyes, I know that you’re the one for me, you’re my ecstasy, you’re the one I need. You know you got the power to make weak inside. Honestly, I tried to go on like I never knew you, but it was futile because without you all I’m going to be is incomplete.
