silentwill I guess if I have more knowledge about snakes and encounter them more often like you do I can overcome my fear. My cousin has killed a lot of snakes too. He also ended up killing this one. I agree with you, snakes and men are enemies, it was a snake that lured...

silentwill Hi vidhyaprakash_2. I agree that the present is the most important and we should live in it, not in the past or in the future. But the past is important too and you mentioned the reason yourself, which is to learn from our mistakes. So we should not forget it...

silentwill That's true. There's a lot of backstory behind my username. Maybe if I get in an eccentric mood I'll make a discussion about it.

silentwill How's your vacation so far? Mine is quiet as I expected and hoped. Today is a do nothing day and tomorrow we'll be holding a praying vigil for my father's 40th day after his death. After that my long vacation which stared on Halloween will be over.

silentwill Hi hatley. Thank you. I did not go through theraphy at all. The doctors just gave me a couple of exercises, one of which I didn't do because I really doubt it would help. I just slowly started using my left hand doing easy tasks and pretty soon I could do most...

silentwill Yes. But what about his son? I guess he wants his son to learn the value of money by letting him earn his own instead of inheriting a huge amount without the need to work.

When I was a boy we had a pond in our village. Not a big pond, in fact just the right size for small boys in need of a summer paddle. However, a huge snake was reputed to live in the pond. He would eat small fish, ducklings and...

Before our son was born aside from his name, I was already thinking what I'd want him to call me. It's becoming more and more common here in our country that we use the English words to refer to our parents: mom, mommy, mama, dad,...

silentwill Maybe it's still common in more rural areas but in our Barrio it is not. Parents are mommy and daddy or mama and papa now. The fact that you said it's cool to be called tatay already gives an impression it is not common anymore doesn't it?

silentwill It's living in my aunt's hut and even if no one's currently living there they plan to rent it out. Also it's a dangerous snake and I saw it the next day guarding the door ready to attack anyone who will go inside. It was hiding in a bamboo walling and the head...

silentwill That is true. I still have my mother and I want to be able to be a better son to her than I was with my father. I know it will not completely compensate for the guilty feelings but it may lessen it somehow.

silentwill I've been to both. Pagudpod was quieter, at least it was quiet around January when I went there. It is quite far even from Laoag. So if that's what you're after you'd definitely enjoy it more. Personally though I like the beach in Subic better.
