Ma. Lourdes Macaya I remember my mother, and I miss her each day. She was like an alarm clock in nagging us, from waking us up in the morning and every hour in checking our daily routine. There was no earphone before and so you could hear her voice banging your eardrum. When...

Ma. Lourdes Macaya @dgobucks226 True, one example I have in mind is during my school days, those students who did not go well in school are now successfully living abroad and are happy raising their own family. You can never judge a person from where he/she is standing right...

Ma. Lourdes Macaya @josie_ You are right, there are those who are making money out of false accusations affecting the personality of an individual. Mental stress and pressures leads to one's own destruction benefitting the gossipmonger.

Ma. Lourdes Macaya We are carefree when young but ponders when fully ripened in time, be kind instead of being mean. There are those whose happiness is hurting others because for themselves they lack confidence, with so much insecurities in things that they do. These people,...

Ma. Lourdes Macaya @innertalks So sad that victims of actually man made calamities are no different from poor drowning animals and bloating carcass in that scenario. We are all of the same fate as that of animals in the midst of chaos.

Ma. Lourdes Macaya Love is attachment and detachment, letting go or holding on. Just the same as setting yourself free of material and immaterial things. The heart finds peace when you know how to define earthly attachment and detachment. The mind weighs the right and wrong...

Ma. Lourdes Macaya @BarBaraPrz You need to iron the wrinkled part again, and maybe it depends on the kind of material used. I think if I am not mistaken polyester fabric was not commonly used for shirts before. I did notice too that wrinkled starched shirt stays wrinkled once...

Ma. Lourdes Macaya @Shiva49 So sad that only few are observant on what is going on with our Earth, only few participate to balance the situation. With what is going on around us we still ignore that those are due to negligence and abusive treatment.

Ma. Lourdes Macaya I like how the Indians respect the nature, how they consider it breathing. How living things participate and contribute in the cycle of Earth's own way of renewal, but imbalance is about to take effect due to abuse of its adopted humans.

Ma. Lourdes Macaya True enough, we are dividing the mother Earth forming culture and in the end claiming the soil on top of us or we are stepping on. The earth sustains us but we arrogantly managing it as if we are the one nourishing it, well in fact we are suffocating it.

Ma. Lourdes Macaya @Fleura My mother used to add a little amount of starch mixed in water to strengthen the fiber of the clothes most especially our uniforms. It makes the clothes a little stiffer when ironed and thus stays uncrampled the whole school day.
