The Pear by John Steinbeck

The Pearl is a book written by John Steinbeck. This book is a parable, which is a short story that involves moral lesson in it. After reading this book, the ending of the story I am kinda happy and sad at the same time. I'm happy because Kino has learned his lesson. He let go The Pearl because it had caused him to lose his son. Also there was a closure for Kino as he had to throw The Pearl back into the sea himself. I'm sad too, because Coyotito (Kino Son) died. Poor baby he was so innocent but he was killed in the end. And for Kino, I felt sorry for him because he did not succeed in improving his life and he had lost everything. His house which was burned down, his canoe the source of his income was destroyed. Finally, he lost his only son (Coyotito).

The moral lesson that I think we should learn is that things are not what is impotant in person lives. What is important is life itself and family too. To be a selfish person is not a good paradigm to have. When Kino found The Pearl he become a materialistic and selfish. It took the life of his son to realized what he had and what he lost.

To all my friends, co-bloggers and visitors, I strongly recommend this book to all of you to read it. I'm pretty sure you will learn a lot in it.

Surfing , Surfing , Surfing

Do you believe that one of the world's most excellent surfing spot is part of Philippines? Yes and that is called SIARGAO ISLAND. Siargao Island is the biggest island in the miniarchipelago to the east of Surigao, though still relatively unknown amongst travellers. It is blessed with a tropical backdrop that in places could have straight out of a picture book, with more palms than you could count, white beaches, an azure ocean and deserted offshore islands. The infrastructure for tourist is still modest, so it's too early to expect much in the way of transport and accommodation. Most international visitors chiefly value the island because of its excellent surf, especially from August to October on the east coast which faces the Pacific. At least a dozen breaks have become popular, including Tuason Point, Cloud Nine, Rock Island, Pilar Point and all north of General Luna and reachable on foot or by boat. And in south of Union there's Pansukian Reef, and further south out on the island of La Janosa and Antokon huge breakers are just waiting for surfers to experience them. The annual Siargao International Surfing Cup takes place in October. So, if you are planning to go for vacation in the Philippines, I encourage you to visit Siargao Island I'm sure you like it.

Do You Believe In God ?

......that's a very basic question that most people don't want to answer for being afraid to be rejected, persecuted, humiliated or contradicted by other people. But why afraid to say whatever you truly believe in as long as you have true basis of such beliefs?

YES! I truly believe in God who is the Almighty One, the Creator of all who gives us life. My only basis for such belief is the HOLY BIBLE. But I am just wondering that inspite and despite of such proof, there are still people who don't believe in God and never believe He truly exists. There is only one thing I can say. If you don't believe in God and never believe He truly exists then you never ever believe your own existence. Everything we can feel or see in this world shows that there is God. I know this is a very strong statement that many will contradict me for saying that but I don't care coz it's better to say the truth than compromise to what are lies. Just like what I've read before that Truth is never an opinion coz Truth is always truth whether you will agree or accept it or not.

To those who believe in God, keep on believing and knowing Him more and more each day. Stand firm in the coming days. And to those who don't believe in God, think and try to seek the truth for the Truth will set you free. Godbless and more power to all !!!!

What The Difference ?

Recently I read an articles called The Male and Female Brain. The author offers some explanations to us of differences between girls and boys. The explanations has its roots in brain-based research. The author also discusses the evolution of these differences in terms of female and male brain development. Some of the differences he describes are already familiar to us. For instance, girls are more able to engage in multi task behavior, use both sides of the brain when processing information and hear better. In the articles also includes information we are less familiar with, such as boys may take more time in processing emotive information, thus making it more difficult for boys to quickly adjust after engaging in emotionally charged situations.

Well, after reading the entire articles, there is some part that I'm totally agree with especially the emotion part. Girls and Boys are different emotionally because they tend to express emotions differently. Boys hold back they're emotions till they explode. Girls however tend to express themselves so the percentage of exploding is however NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO ACTIVATE.
