Miyako Ecology Center!


Miyako Ecology Center!
If you happen to visit Kyoto, Japan in one of your trips, one of the most interesting building designs there is the Miyako Ecology Center. It is a 5 minute walk west from Keihan Fujinomori station. The building was constructed to promote environmental protection. I visited the place in June 2005, and a trip there would certainly be very interesting and educational.

A construction in progress in the Municipality of Consolacion, in the Philippines. It is interesting. While many Filipinos and other nationals feel that there is a world economic slowdown, there is no let up in the construction of big residential buildings like this in the municipality of Consolacion.



In order to cope up with the difficult economic times, Filipinos have become more creative. The motorcycle had become now a means for livelihood. Passengers take the motorcycle back ride, along with their items for a fare of P10 per person.




This motorcycle service system is able to sustain the driver, his daily budget for food and has provided employment for those, who are not hired by companies for lack of positions for drivers. Many Filipinos in the barrios and small communities make use of their ability to drive motorcycles as a means of livelihood. This is a typical day in the municipality of Consolacion.





The more enterprising Filipinos opened a small store, better known as the Philippine neighborhood assorted “sari-sari” store. This store has a capitalization of P3,000.00 and it is able to sustain the owner its daily budget for food.


History repeats!

History repeats itself!
The books and the information data base is full of life’s lessons, and human experiences. Things that are happening now, may have happened some years back (some time ago), or will happen again. The same story may even happen everyday, over and over again or even simultaneously. Many times, only the actors and actresses (the acting casts) that change. The plot could remain the same or perhaps a slight variation at best; seldom entirely new. Some plots have a gist of ignorance as a primary lesson, others teach arrogance, deceit, recklessness, carelessness, obsession, greed, frugality, miserliness, hard work, wisdom, alacrity, ambition, respect, values, heroism, patriotism, statesmanship, vested interests, shrewdness, complacency, neglect, naivety , callousness, loyalty, adaptability and many more. One should take care ,therefore, not to err on the side of ignorance, hence must learn, whatever it is that needs to be learned from men in history; from their autobiographies; from those who have great insights; from our own evaluative capabilities and experiences. Remember, history can repeat itself, and may just repeat itself always, unless one influences the final outcome. Life so many say, “ is just how we make it!” So, be part of a great history in the making, and not otherwise.

Corrections that matters!

God Corrects!
Remember that the Lord your God corrects and punishes you just as a father disciplines his children. So, then do as the Lord has commanded you: live according to his laws, and obey him.
