Happy Birthday...

... to me!

A birthday is just another day,
young of mind, yet youthful looks go away.
Another year older,
the world seems a bit colder.
Yet my heart still burns,
and for love it forever yearns.
Another year older,
I grow even bolder.
Life is for us to learn from,
as calculated as a mathematical sum.
Another year older,
hurting blazes now just smolder.
Letting go of past rage and pain,
living life and feeling sane.
Another year older,
a tear on your shoulder.
Life has not been so bad,
my tear is of joy not because I'm sad.
Another day older,
more pages added to my folder.
I'm glad of who I am today,
I would not have myself any other way.
So don't mind that I write my own birthday rhyme,
I've lived through my life up till this time.
I think it is safe to say,
that things will go as planned His way.
He's got more for me yet,
It'll be even better I bet.
Another year older,
and I am in His debt.

Thank you God for another year.

Bb. Ang Itawag Mo Sa Akin

In fairness, ang ganda ni Rustom ha... magkasing-ganda na sila halos ni Carmina Villaroel!

Panawagan

Okay, hindi nawawala ang lalakeng nasa peechur at lalong hindi ko sya kilala. Wala rin akong paki sa hawak nyang fungi, err truffles, whatevah! But I'm dying to know where he got his shirt from.

Baka may nakakaalam sa inyo kung saan nabibili ang shirt na yan, please lemme know... puhleaasssee!
