C

PWERSA members are forceful in dealing wit h life’s cha l lenges knowing that DOLE is willingly capable to support them in their various lined-up activities.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SECURE & INSECURE PEOPLE http://www.chinkeetan.com/
TAN by CHINKEE
One thing that I cannot stand are insecure people. I must admit, I considered myself was one of the most insecure person in the world. That was the reason why I cannot even stand myself before. Have you met people who are insecure? How would know that if a person is insecure? So allow me to share with you my personal struggles with insecurity and how a person feel when he/ she is insecure. Insecure people feel bad when others succeed while secure people feel inspired when others succeed. Insecure people are focus on what others have while secure people are focus on what they have. Insecure people are ungrateful people while secure people grateful & thankful people. Insecure people are often cranky and lonely while secure people are often jolly and happy. Insecure people often talk about their achievements and build themselves up
while secure people rarely talk about their achievements build others up. Insecure people take credit from other peoples effort while secure people give credit to others where it is due. Insecure people have the tendency to say negative things about others while secure people often have good things to say about others. Insecure people live discontented and miserable lives while secure people live happy and contented life. I really thank God that He removed my insecurities away. Am I totally out of it? Not at all! This is a daily battle that all of us need to face. We just need to be conscious or aware if you have it, struggling with it or denying it. At the end of the day, we do not want to live discontented and miserable lives. Ask for help. Talk to people on how you can improve. Ask God to give you the grace to overcome it. As He also has given me the grace to be victorious over it. THINK. REFLECT. APPLY. Do you think you have or still have insecurities in your life? What is your plan in order for you to improve? Have you ever confessed and ask God to forgive and give you the grace to overcome it?
‘Ya Hindi No’ Hot New Yano Album ( Part 1 of 3)
O
n September 6, the 12 songs in the newest album from YANO entitled ‘YA HINDI NO’ is finally out after recording began in mid – April this year. The album was launched in the recently successful P FEST UK in London on September 27 and 28. The recording came from scratch in lyrics and melody. And from scratch, the pace was quite fast of 1 song composed and recorded and initially mastered in 1 week, and another song after another week per week thereafter. 4 songs were roughly ‘sketched’ in Dubai in March this year when the band had a series of bar concerts there. The first song recorded was ‘Sanggol’ and the album was supposed to end at 10 songs with ‘Rurok’. But there was quite a feeling of lack in the whole sense of the album. Hence, ‘Yan O’ and ‘Tingin’ were added to make it 12. The album gained great feedback. They said, ‘This is a great album’, and ‘Nice lyrics and melody, and originality of music’. Among their immediate favorites are ‘Bago’, ‘Ya Hindi No’, ‘Paulit – ulit’,’Ikaw’, ‘Isip’ and ‘Ulap’. They also remarked the resemblance and consistency of music from the 1st Yano self-titled album. Here then are the songs from the album: 1. Bago – / kelangang magbago ng isipan / nais ko na ang lahat ay gumaan / ginhawa, kabutihan at mayaman / wala na’ng iyakan at talunan // ref: wala na’ng malawakang kawalan / lubos ang kasiyahan / wala na’ng sama ng loob / di magmamaliw ang pagmamahalan // cho: bago na’ng takbo ng buhay / nag – Iba na ng kulay / bago na’ng pananaw sa buhay / ang saya ay walang kasing – kulay / It speaks of a deliberate turnaround of mindset towards the more prospective consciousness from the usual, if not rampant, defeatist frame of mind. It is also the deliberate embrace to happiness as ‘a constant state of mind, no matter how circumstances
opposite – being more adept to being outwardly (unselfish) in order to gain inwardly. While it appears to be more ‘real’ and ‘benefiting to all’ – by being more adept inwardly (selfish) in order to gain outwardly. Hence, the song inspects the experience in one’s relationship to the self. And most important of all assures that in the end, all is a brighter and better realization from the appreciation of the good. Then the reflection of the outside in terms of events, people and circumstances will definitely mirror what was defined or redefined in the inside in the first place.
arise.’ Then only after such can doing prosperity follow and everything that comes into oneself with it. It is also the declaration and appreciation of what is good in one’s mind that only in such way all greater possibilities are seen that were just within all minds and yet unexploited to the fullest.
total, is the immediate result. There is confidence in all subjects: Math, English, Science, Physics, Filipino, Sports, in all subjects and personal relations, character, creations and leadership traits. IF THERE ARE MUCH MORE GREATER MINDS, THERE WILL BE A MUCH MORE GREATER NATION.
2. Ya Hindi No – / cho: ya hindi no / sa lahat ng bagay gabay ito / ya hindi no / ang buhay ay gabay nito // mas iingay ang kabutihan / mas magagaling ang isipan / mas mayaman ang bayan / taglay ang ya kesa sa no / ‘Ya’, being ‘yes’, if dominant in one’s mind, can dominate the body, and can eventually dominate a nation in due time. Then ‘no’, being the negative, becomes less and less in the mind and in everything in the individual and eventually the nation. This song carries that idea significantly, beginning with the child. That if there is no more scolding, but only guiding and teaching, the mind expands rather than contracts. Undeniably, greater self – esteem and confidence, if not
3. Isip – / minsa’y isipa’y nawawala / ngayong ako’y nag – iisa / nawala ang dating sigla / ng ating pagsasama / nais ko ma’y kasama ka / pinipigilan ng iba / ipaglalaban ka / hanggang sa dulo ng hininga // cho: ang tanging gawin pa rin / ay ang ating pinakamabuti / tiwala sa pagpupunyagi / ang huli ay magiging mabuti / sa bawat sandal kaligayahan nati’y di mapapawi / magsasama tayo / ang lahat ay laging mabuti / This song is a love song at first glance, especially if the title is ignored first. In the end it becomes a love song to the self, the most difficult to do at most times. We are not quite keen about our relations to others. How much more are we keen with our relation to self? Yet we practice what is the
4. Yan O – / sino man ang me kaligayan / ako na yan / tayo na yan o / sino man ang me tawanan / ako na yan / tayo na yan o / sino man ang me kagalingan / ako na rin yan / tayo rin yan o / sino man ang me kadalubhasaan / ako na rin yan / tayo rin yan // ref: nanjan na yan noon pa man / noon pa man nanjan na yan / maliit ka pa lang alam mo na yan / na isinilang kang ganyan / sa sinapupunan pa lang // cho: yan na yan / ang takbo ng iyong isipan / yan ganyan ang manguna sa lahat sa kabutihan / ganyan na ganyan ang pagpalawak sa lahat ng isipan / yan na yan uuwi ang lahat saan man sa kayanu – yanuhan mo / The achievement of the Filipino is unquestionable in any aspect and avenue worldwide. And when we listen to how they speak even in humility, these are words that come out naturally. It’s their and our belief system as Filipinos. We know that, everybody in the world knows that. This song bloats this belief system in the open. However humble, it is a humility that rests in this reality about the Filipino. And in the end, everyone everywhere will return to the epitome and happiness of the Filipino as put in the concluding line in the song ‘uuwi ang lahat saan man sa kayanuyanuhan mo.’

The notebook SOMEWHERE in Tawi-tawi, a seven-year-old kid clutches a very worn-out notebook in hand. The kid’s mother who’s in her mid-20s says that she was the original user of the notebook when she graduated in high school almost ten years ago. All the lessons written in pencil were erased so the notebook would be used by her son who’s now entering first grade. This situation highlights the grim vast gap between the poorest of the poor and the average Filipino. Here in the city, we already tend to discard our notebooks and even papers that have already been used to record documents. We already use cellphones, tablets and desktops in our day-to-day lives that we ignore notepads
and papers lying around. But in highly remote communities, kids badly need them so they can be literate. Whereas here in the city we doodle and write often nonsensical things on paper, they in the provinces need

them for the very foundation of academic learning. It is in this premise that ROTA (Rebirth Outdoor Trekkers and Adventurers Philippines, Inc.) in their capacity as mountaineers reach out to the most remote barangays in Bukidnon just to distribute school kits for children there. ROTA members have to endure walking for hours on steep trails traversing almost a dozen streams just to reach their destination. Intavas Elementary School in Impasug-ong, Bukidnon is one such example. Whatever they have gathered in the city, ROTA members hand out their school goodies to the kids there just to encourage them to stay in school. And they were successful. After ROTA’s intervention, the dropout rate

AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 18) - You may be dragged into an unpleasant conversation about your goals at work today. Do not attempt to avoid the conversation. You cannot shirk your responsibilities because others are depending on you now to tell them what you think. PISCES (February 19 – March 20) - You could be sending mixed messages today as the peace-loving Libra Moon encourages you to avoid conflict at all costs. However, the restrictive Sun-Saturn conjunction simultaneously demands that you stay true to your principles. ARIES (March 21 – April 19) - Dealing with restrictions placed on you by a close friend or lover may be more difficult than you think today. Although your concerns are based on reality, your fears complicate the situation more than necessary. TAURUS (April 20 – May 20) - A coworker may be overly critical of your fixed nature today, but your first inclination is to entirely resist the label. In fact, you might claim that your integrity depends on your ability to stick to your values.

Daily HOROSCOPE CANCER (June 22 – July 22) - Pressing responsibilities require your full attention today, but your willingness to go the extra mile at work could win you the support you need to accomplish them. You might even persuade someone to postpone your deadline if you can muster up enough courage to ask. LEO (July 23 – August 22) - You’re emotionally invested in reaching a specific goal, but your coworkers might not even notice your ambitious behavior today. Perhaps your profound desire to get ahead now isn’t obvious to others because your real destination is not a place based on observable landmarks.
traditional Manobo songs; and how to make indigenous necklaces and bracelets. A cultural reawakening has developed. While Talents and Quiguer choose to immerse in the community, indie filmmaker Nef Luczon of Davao and Cagayan de Oro choose to expose the day-to-day lives of a Tigwahanon-Manobo tribe in Bukidnon. Through his indie film Migkahi e si Amey te, uli Ki Pad which was screened at GMA’s Cine Totoo last September, Luczon was able to document the joys, the struggles of a dying cultural heritage. Luczon’s buddy Rhyan Casiño went a step further by having himself tattooed the Tigwahanon way – the panggutob. A panggutob is a series of skin markings rich with meanings about the Tigwahanon culture.

at Intavas declined to only 4 percent, way below the national level. The Manobo children in barangay Kisayab, San Fernando also in Bukidnon have a different challenge. Although the area there is remote, kids there tend to embrace the modern way of life and have almost forgotten their Manobo culture. In 2013, a Paris-based artist from Cagayan de Oro intervened. He talked to the Manobo elders and they concocted a way for the children there to be excited about their culture again. By bridging the elders and the children, Louie Talents and his French counterpart Morgane Quiguer encouraged the kids to learn how to play the kuglong and bangkakawan; how to sing

Ephesians 2:14-16-For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition [between us]; Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, [even] the law of commandments [contained] in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, [so] making peace; And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity there-

VIRGO (August 23 – September 22) - You work best when you have a detailed plan that you can execute without deviation; however, your flexibility is warranted today if circumstances shift without warning.Infact,yourwillingnesstorespondtounexpectedschedule changes may alleviate the tension before it grows into a crisis. LIBRA (September 23 – October 22) - A disagreement about work ethics or core values might have you throwing your hands up in the air today because you don’t know which side to support. Unfortunately, you’re still learning about the current dynamics and there’s no easy way to untangle the facts. SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21) - Fantasies may assume a significant role in your life now, yet your illusions could come crashing down to earth before the day is done. It’s wise to be proactive and channel your desires into productivity instead of focusing on your dreams. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 21) - You are standing at a turning point and the circumstances that were holding you back just last week now begin to fade into the past. Your enthusiasm is on the rise but it’s not realistic to think that everything will automatically shift overnight. CAPRICORN (December 22 – January 19) - You are truly a force to be reckoned with today as your ruling planet Saturn is illuminated by the radiant Sun. You must singularly apply yourself to the tasks at hand or you could be pulled off course by an enticing invitation from your friends.

or being No. 9 nationwide in the roster of licensure examination for teachers (LET) taken last August, 21-yearold Barbilou Labial received P30,000 from her alma mater COC-Phinma. According to CO CPhinma marketing officer Royce Arellano, this has been a practice of the educational institution for any alumni who excel in their respective licensure examinations. Labial took the half-day exam here in Cagayan de Oro City last August 17 along with 148,588 other hopefuls spread in hundreds of testing centers all over the country. Of that number, only 52,068 passed. Labial was among the nine passers who shared the same percentage score – 87.60 percent – to rank ninth nationwide. So how did she do it? “Nothing. I did not expect to be one of the topnotchers. I just had the proper training from school. I was very diligent during the review. I had whole support from teachers, friends and family alike,” Labial quipped during this interview. After graduating as a dean’s lister in March this year, Labial immediately went to review mode. But the road to being a topnotcher started as early as during her elementary years
when Labial was the school valedictorian at Cogon Elementary School in Balingasag, Misamis Orintal. When she graduated from Misamis Oriental General Comprehensive High School (Mogchs) in 2010, Labial was a first honorable mention. It was there and then that she decided to enroll at COC-Phinma. Anchored on giving quality but affordable education, COC-Phinma gave Labial and the whole Education population in the campus the best only the Phinma Education Network can give. It has also been the principle of COC-Phinma for its graduates to gain employability. With preparing for their students’ bright future in mind, COC-Phinma strives its alumni to be competitive not just here in the Philippines but in the global market while at the same time, empowering their families to live a life that matters. That’s what happened to Labial. Employability? Labial is now a part-time faculty at her alma mater, COC-Phinma. Empowering the families of the students? Labial’s sister is now following her footsteps as an Education student of the institution. On a footnote, Labial’s dad Felipe and mom Maria Regina happily posed with their proud daughter while receiving the P30,000 check.
