Life can seem unbearable at times, but don't let it keep you down. Meditate on God's goodness, talk to Him, and know that He hears you. When life knocks you to your knees, you're in a good position to pray.

Catty? I Think Not
I have been thinking of having cats as pets this time. I've longed to have a pet to care for because I think it looks fun. Well, we do have a dog in the house but my father seems not to like it. Naaawa na nga ako, sa labas pinapatulog. I can do nothing naman, because she's dirty. She was not trained properly because nobody in the house have the time to. So, kahit umuulan, sa labas siya pinagi-stay ng tatay ko. Kakaawa talaga. I can do nothing naman dahil baka ako patulugin ng tatay ko sa labas (just kidding), but my dad will really just scold me. I can't take the responsibility naman of taking care of her dahil I don't have much time nga and since she's already fully grown, it's also hard to train her. The dog's really pitiful, she hasn't even got a name.
Our dog's askal, and because dogs proved to be of high maintenance, like you have to train them, and give them a regular bath but in spite of that they still stink, and loads of stuff, that I gave up of thinking of dogs as pets when cats came into my mind. I really like having a dog, but I don't have the time to train them. I tried to research some stuff about cats and also based on my own observation na rin, they look less demanding than taking care of a dog. Besides of being naturally affectionate, which is a trait you have yet to develop with dogs, most cats don't mind just staying inside the house, so you don't have to keep a constant look out for them. And because cats are less popular here in pinas, most of their stuff (I think) are less expensive than dogs'.
I was considering of having a black cat for a pet. Ewan ko ba, but I found them beautiful when I saw this picture. This is actually the exact cat I want to have:
The Bombay Cat
Ganda no? Well.. I find them beautiful, and based on their characteristics when I searched about this breed, they are the ones that's perfectly suited for me ^_^. Nga lang, I doubt it if such breed exist here in the Philippines, being the siamese and persians the popular and dominant breeds, or should I say the only breeds? I don't know much about the available breeds in the market, but I think I'll take even an alley cat, as long as it's pure black and is still a kitten. Ayoko lang sa alley cats, gala. I don't know yet if cats can be raised to be satisfied indoors lang, but I think they can naman.
Why black? Because I want to show people that there's no such thing as bad luck among God's creations and that the poor thing is just one of the victims of proofless superstions. I am not really a believer of them (superstions), but I do accept that there are unseen entities and other what's-out-theres that are stronger than us eventhough I haven't felt or seen any of them yet, but that would already be a totally different topic. Basta I believe such things exist, but there's still the most powerful of them and of us all, who is of course, none other than the Lord God our father.
But to put it simply, I really find that shiny black coat very beautiful. ^_^
I don't intend this to be my life's chronicles but I might write some of my experiences here.
Even so, everything that's written in here are either products of my excessive contemplation, or just plainly, pure boredom.
In any case, I still try to write as sensible as possible, for what I really intend to do and I hope is achieved in every writing,
is to impart or share some of the things I learn and sometimes, some struggles in life. Don't expect all seriousness in everything in here though.
In short, this blog is my outlet. My noted thoughts and reflections.
