ANG PAMASIN NI TIKBOY
Ang buhat pamasin mopaluag, mohulip sa damgo’ng nasaag. May mamasin nga makaangkon sa gidamgo’ng dawatonon ug tukbonon.
“Hala ka Tikboy, kasayo gud nimong naghapyod nianang manok nimo. Sa akong tan-aw, gum-os pa man kaayo nang imong gisul-ob ug kalkag pa kaayo ang imong buhok. Wala pa g’yuy ligo.” pulong pa ni Kolasa.
KADAUGAN UG KAPAROTAN
padulngan ug sangpotanan,
ang kadaugan ug kaparotan,
kadaugan
kadaugan sukwahi sa kaparotan,
paningkamot maoy iyang gigikanan,
buhaton, kuptan, kabyonan ang tanan
kahago, singot, kusog, hasta puhunan,
ibubo aron kab-oton lang ang kadaugan,
ikalipay, kini ang giilogan sa kadaghanan,
daghan ang mangamahan ug kadaugan,
Wala Iyan sa Super Nanay Ko!
My mother is the world’s best Mom! Iyan ang madalas kong marinig mula sa mga kakilala ko. Pero kung iisa-isahin ko marahil ang mga nagawa ng nanay ko, sasabihin ko sa kanilang “wala iyan sa nanay ko!”
Tarcela Delfin ang pangalan ng aking inay. Bunso siya sa limang magkakapatid. Grade 6 lamang ang natapos niya dahil hindi siya pinag-aral ng mga lolo at lola ko. Naniniwala silang ang babae ay dapat na nasa tahanan lamang kapag ito’y nag-asawa na.

Ito ang sinigurado kong ibinoto ang 27, 30, 32 dahil saksi ang patnubay sa mga naitulong nila para sa mga OFWs.
At ito naman ang aking mga fillers 1, 4, 10, 20, 29 - ibinoto ko sila dahil hindi sila trapo, hindi sila dynasty at walang relihiyong hinawakan.
Si 14 dahil sya ay taga amin at palaging talo, si 7 dahil gusto nyang mainvolved sa mga OFWs,
Magunaw na ang mundo hindi ko maaring kaligtaan si 18 dahil crush ko sya, noon pa.
Ibinoto ko ang 13 dahil sya si Chiz

As we draw close to the much-awaited day of elections, we hear cacophony of voices heralding the names of candidates, telling the people that the cure of social ills is discovered and that their candidates have it.
Another day of mudslinging for those who can’t live without besmirching the reputation of their opponents in the guise of presenting themselves as saviors, holders of the antidote of poverty and champions of people’s hopes.
This is the price of living in a democracy. Washing dirty linen in public becomes the rule of the day. A candidate has to put himself on guard every second of the day to fend off criticism and keep his best foot forward.
“BANGON PILIPINAS”
Malapit na naman ang botohan
Ang sa akin lang po…
kapagka ang tao’y sadyang may pag-ibig,
sa kanyang salita’y kaloob ang langit,
Sanglang kalayaan nasa ring masapit,
Katulad ng ibong nasa himpapawid,…
Pagka’t ang salita’y isang kahatulan
sa bayan, sa nayo’t mga kaharian,
at ang isang tao’y katulad, kabagay
ng alin mang likha noong kalayaan…
Bayan kong PILIPINAS na minamahal
dapat pinapahalagahan, isinasa-isip at
isinasa-puso, bilang isang mamayan…

Pagkaon’g nagkadaiya sa gikuninitan,
Mga dahonan hangtod sa minantikaan,
Walay ugam, walay liatan, magdinut-anay,
May magkinuotay, human sa kinan-anay,
Nga makapatabisay sa singot ug laway,
Ipagawas bulsita ug putos nga tinaguan,
Ang kan-anan ug lamesa pagahawanan,

Ito ay bilang pagsuporta sa isang magandang proyekto ni Dr. Alexander Lucman, isa sa mga hinahangaan nating servant leaders. Si Kaka Alex ay isang OFW advocate noon sa Saudi Arabia at saksi po tayo sa maraming mga OFWs ang kanyang natulongan. Sa katunayan, isa po tayo sa mga natulongan nya.
Noong 2007, ay umuwi na ng Pilipinas si Kaka Alex pagkatapos ng 25 na taon na nagtrabaho sa Saudi Arabia. “Once a servant leader always a servant leader” ika nga, kaya patuloy pa ring nakatutok si Kaka Alex sa mga kaganapan at mga issues tungkol sa karapatan at kagalingan ng mga OFWs.
