What are you willing to sacrifice for the TRUTH?

“Sa mundo nang tahasang pagpapalaganap ng mga kasinungalingan, ang pagtatahimik mo ay hindi simbulo na wala kang pinapanigan kundi ito ay halataang pagsuporta mo sa kahakaan.”

I can't believe it's been eight years today (14 September 2022)....

Although it’s difficult today to see beyond the sorrow, looking back in our memory helps comfort me today and tomorrow.

“When my mum [attempted suicide], she was so embarrassed,”  Josh Thomas recalls. “You never heard it spoken about that much. In Please Like Me, it offers some reasons someone might attempt suicide, but they're not malicious. A lot of people think it's kind of a mean thing to do, or it's a selfish thing to do. As we did more and more research, [we found] a lot of people do it because they think they’re doing a favour, because they’re in such a dark place that they think removing themselves will really help people out.”

An Animal of No Significance

About 13.5 billion years ago, matter, energy, time and space came into being in what is known as the Big Bang. The story of these fundamental features of our universe is called PHYSICS.

About 300,000 years after their appearance, matter and energy started to coalesce into complex structures, called atoms, which then combined into molecules. The story of atoms, molecules and their interactions is called CHEMISTRY.

About 3.8 billion years ago, on a planet called Earth, certain molecules combined to form particularly large and intricate structures called organisms. The story of organisms is called BIOLOGY.

The Art of Living, Appreciation & Dying for
the 'acceptance' of TRUTH & FREEDOM 

Life is multi-layered
and there's no way I could do my life justice
 in one pat answer.

Every individual is complicated.

There are many different aspects of our self, depending on our genes, our environment, our relationships, our health, our education, our jobs, our beliefs, our emotions, and our past experiences.

All of these factors come together and influence each other to create “you” as you perceive yourself.

But even that isn’t the complete story, because these factors are constantly changing and evolving, just as “you” are constantly changing and evolving.

Call Me By Your Name...

“A handsome young knight is madly in love with a princess, and she too is in love with him, though she seems not to be entirely aware of it. Despite the friendship that blossoms between them, or perhaps because of that very friendship, the young knight finds himself so humbled and speechless that he is totally unable to bring up the subject of his love. Until one day he asks the princess point-blank: 

Is it better to speak or die?”

... And I'll Call You By Mine.
