What is the basis of authentic love?
Love is defined as a “strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal warm attachment, enthusiasm or devotion”. I believe the basis of authentic love is unselfishness. One cannot be able to attach feelings to another person if she is only thinking only about herself. This is the principle component of love. God has shown unconditional love to mankind when he gave up his only son. God did not become selfish. Another example to this is when Gandhi has shown authentic love for his people when he marched up in front of the British and drove them away in a silent peaceful process. He had thought of the citizens’ future when he did his protests. Our mothers can also be so unselfish that she is so willing to risk her body curves in order to bring in to the world another life. These are examples of real authentic love. One gives up something in the hope that her partner can be able to live a better life.
Authentic love may be based on two factors: on the lover and on the recipient. Love is universal and is a culmination of many different sentiments and gestures. To determine if these actions are indicative of true love it would depend on the two factors. Does the person mean to express love and does the person it is meant for receive and understand it to be love? if both parties have a mutual understanding that the exchange going on between them is equal to love and they feel the desire to give and receive more of this to another, the experience may be called authentic love. This is based on the personal benchmarks of the people involved as to what love necessitates for it to be genuine.
On the other hand, the basis of authentic Love, when referred to the biblical passages, is the love of God. It is a special kind of love that differs from all others in a way that makes that love worthy of note. This could mean that, not one single person or any living creature in this world could triumph over the love that God gave for us. He manifested the real, unselfish, genuine, bona fide and unconditional love to His people by giving His only begotten son to save the people from their sins. As for me, the passion that Christ experienced (dying on the cross) is the basis of authentic love… the AGAPE love. One should understand the saving grace that God has given to all of us for the reason that we would not be here now if not because of God’s sacrifice and love for His people without asking anything in return. It is of great shame and disrespect to God if we are not grateful and appreciative about it.
As for me, what God did for us is something that we cannot do yet He is telling us that we could try to be like Him in our own ways. He made us feel what authentic love is and that He wants us to proliferate love to others as well. Love is the word of God.
Authentic love is depicted in the bible passage found in 1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 which says that: “Love is patient, love is kind, and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things; Love never fails.”
As for me, the bible passage explicates the basis of authentic love. The passage also made me realize that love is not all about emotions because sentiments easily gets the person carried away intended to get prone with failures and LOVE is not all about lacking success, it’s about victory.
DO I MAKE ANY SENSE?!

SEEING YOU is HOPELESS
no beat and no music. YET!
so help me if u want to help me. :))
SEEING YOU IS HOPELESS
Top of the class, outstanding in everything
She carries herself well,
Wins people
Over her
Powerful charisma and confidence,
While I, a player just a baller
Don’t even bother
I linger in the shadows
Stutter whenever I see you
You’re so pretty, guys and girls are
Going after you
You’re so beautiful and I am like a fool
So damn good
I saw the elongated disparity between us
And I could never stand the constant taunts
On how you deserve someone
Much better
Suddenly I whispered I am hopeless
Seeing you is hopeless.
I know you, you know me.
But d’you ever think of me? Malamang hindi.
What if I try to tell you?
All the words
That I could’ve said?
Would you even care to answer?
Are you going to reject me?
Then I guess I won’t
Be singing this
So damn good
I saw the elongated disparity between us
And I could never stand the constant taunts
On how you deserve someone
Much better
Suddenly I whispered I am hopeless
Seeing you is hopeless.
Seeing you is hopeless.
Anyhow
When I first saw you, I felt bleak.
When I first saw you singing, I couldn’t breathe.
Forgive me if I’m trying hard to sing
It’s just that you’re
So damn good
I saw the elongated disparity between us
And I could never stand the constant taunts
On how you deserve someone
Much better
Oh how hopeless...
so help me if u want to help me. :))

blog of the super bored.
This summer, for me, as unemployed, I spend more time blogging and at the same time watching TV. Upon watching I fail to notice some of the cartoons in Cartoon Network, Disney Channel, and nickelodeon, Ex. Chowder, Ben 10, Foster’s home for imaginary friends, Mighty B, etc.
BUT As A kid I adored the ff cartoons: :P
I hope this list as fun a trip down memory lane for you all as it was for me.
10 The Huckleberry Hound Show
One of the very first Hanna-Barbera cartoons, beginning in 1958, and lasting 69 episodes. I find it funny when I was grade 2, I love watching this whenever I feel tired at school. woeh :)) stressed. lala :P
9 Yogi Bear
Yogi was one of several Hanna-Barbera characters to have a collar, which allowed the body to be kept static and to redraw just the head in each frame when he was speaking, thus reducing the number of drawings needed for a seven-minute cartoon from 14,000 to around 2,000. He is a friendly bear, who loves to go out on a picnic.
hmm.. haha...
8 The Jetsons
It was Hanna-Barbera’s space age counterpart to The Flintstones. A half-hour family sitcom projecting contemporary American culture and lifestyle into another time period. eeemmmp armpp orrrmpp.. ahrf arhf.. haha GETS?
7 Tom and Jerry
Tom and Jerry centered on a never-ending rivalry between a housecat (Tom) and a mouse (Jerry) whose chases and battles often involved comic violence. Malamang.. aso at pusa e...
6 The Flintstones
The Flintstones is about a working class Stone Age man’s life with his family and his next door neighbor and best friend. yabaa dabba dooo! jetsons counterpart :)
5 Rugrats
The life of a group of toddlers, Tommy, Chuckie, Phil, Lil and Angelica and later Dill is the longest running series on nickelodeon with Nickelodeon with 14 years and entered a star on the Hollywood walk of fame.
4 Hey ARNOLD!
HEY YOU FOOT BALL HEAD! :)) I had a huge crush on Arnold way back, hahah. Arnold is a very smart boy, and has a very cool room! He lives with his grandparents and he is admired by almost everyone especially helga pataki.:))
3 Rocko’s Modern life
Following the wallaby Rocko, and his surreal life in the city of O-Town, the cartoon was laced with double entendres. Sexual innuendo, and written by a guy who had little to no experience with cartoons or kids! In my opinion Rocko is a bit... unlucky! hahah or i should say the typical "swerteng malas character" :))
2 XMEN
I love this cartoon.. I love wolverine, he's my idol :)) I fancied cyclops. hot boy with goggles, snorkling googles? hahaha
nada
1 Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!
MY FAVORITE!
Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! is the first incarnation of the long-running Hanna-Barbera Saturday morning cartoon Scooby-Doo. It premiered on September 13, 1969 at 10:30 a.m. EST and ran for two seasons on CBS as a half-hour long show. Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! was a breakaway hit for Hanna-Barbera and CBS, who quickly introduced similar cartoons to accompany Scooby-Doo: Josie and the Pussycats, The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show, The Funky Phantom, Speed Buggy, Jabberjaw, and Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels.

whatta bout?
This blog is about complaints. I’m not really a good writer so forgive me for any grammatical blunders or just try to bear with meh. Now what is a complaint? According to Wikipedia it is an expression of displeasure, such as poor service at a store, or from a local government, etc.
Why do we complain when we are guilty? Why? WHY?
We complain when we think that we do not deserve what happened. We usually act as if justice was supposed to be in our edge. The worst part of complaining is wherein we make allies to feel protected. It’s like hiding in your mommy’s skirt, when you’re afraid of thunders. It’s like crying over spilled milk. And mommy on the other hand in spite of everything WILL continue to fight for her son/daughter. I like the feeling of being protected even if I really did something wrong.
Going back to complaints, after what happened we tell the whole world how bad the “service” went. Then we tend to be so arrogant/proud/conceited that we do not really deserve to be mistakenly “rejected”.
But come to think of it, we SOMETIMES complain when things are completely right.
I mean things are really good in God’s hands; acceptance is the only key to rub it in.
So GUILTY people, you really have nothing to groan about. It’s almost as though complaining is a God given gift to humans.
I never meant to be offensive; I am just tired of explaining and complaining.
PLUS, if you react too much on this blog you’re so defensive, it wouldn’t be.. you’re just sensitive..
haha
COMPLAINTS? HIT ME!
