Grandparents


A poem by Scott Kelley at age 14

Who is like a grandma? I would like to know. A face filled with a smile. A head crowned with snow.

Her words are always kind, no matter what you do. And she always wants to help, as long as your heart is true.

Now, grandpa is a different breed. His bark is worse than his bite. If you ever catch him without his teeth, he’s really a funny sight!

But teeth don’t have anything to do with being very bright. Between the two you have quite a blend of humor, patience, and wisdom no end.

The Famous Apo Island Rock

Road Trip in Dumaguete

Road Trip in Dumaguete
Then Apo Island is one of the tourist attraction of Dauin, Dumagute.. where you can get a glimpse of the famous Pawikans... you can also get to experience wonderful beaches with white sands and wonderful shaped big rocks.. may be because it was once an active volcano...Apo Island is a small volcanic island, 7km off the southeastern tip of Negros Island in the Philippines. It is under the jurisdiction of the municipality of Dauin, Negros Oriental. The marine habitat around the island is a marine reserve; protected by the National Integrated Protected Area Act (N.I.P.A.) and comes under the jurisdiction of the Protected Area Management Board (P.A.M.B.). The island is home to nearly 800 people, mainly fisher folks. Since 2002 Apo has become a popular dive site and snorkeling destination with tourists. There are two resorts on Apo Island, both of which have their own dive centers. Apo Island Beach Resort is the smaller and more exclusive, Liberty's Lodge is larger. Apo Island is one of the world's best known community-organized marine sanctuaries, and as such it has been well documented, by the global science community. The project was started in 1982. It is home to over 650 documented species of fish and estimated to have over 400 species of corals. Visitors and tourists pay a fee to enter Apo Island and to snorkel or dive in the marine sanctuary there, these fees are used to keep the sanctuary clean and in good condition. In 2003 Chicago's Shedd Aquarium opened a Wild Reef exhibit based on Apo Island's surrounding reef and marine sanctuary. The island is 20 kilometres from Dumaguete City, Negros Oriental and can be reached by a 30-minute boat ride from the fishing/market village of Malatapay, Zamboanguita, Negros Oriental.

one must laugh a lot to live life to the fullest....do you agree???

i just thought of this....dont really know much about life.....just a little, ... so unlike the elders who have been in this world longer than you and i,... they know what is right or what is wrong because they've experienced and lived to see it, ..... seen and decided on it! ....so when life is troubling you, ....or life has become unberarble.... all you need is to SMILE...smile at everything you see out of the ordinary.....even when others will think of you as ..out of the ordinary....because a smile is a welcoming gesture....that will make you laugh....out of the ordinary....then it will make you laugh a lot..thinking of it....just so you will know..on your own...that life is just what you make of it....knowing that....surely it will ease all the pain...inside...or...outside....or..whatever....!!!!!
