Feeling Frustrated with Life

I am just generally hugely frustrated these days the reason my blog is pretty silence since from my last post. Haven't been blogging lately when the feeling of frustrations started to come around me and at times it feels like the world is against me.
First was, I have unintentionally lost the camera I borrowed from a friend. Of course, I have to pay or pinch hit for the same model of cam that I lost. The paying wasn't really worries me big time but the idea of not retrieving  it at all and snapping the culprit.
Second, I might be so hypocrite if hadn't this atrocious motor response after of spending $230 cost of the camera that I bought for replacement. I could have sent my parents allowance by now so as enjoying my Christmas list-to-buy, of sort.
Third, my laptop has completely dead and un-useful. Didn't apprehend that it could happen earlier of the time that I am not prepared to lost something that I treasured. The biggest challenge has been started developing when I am not used to stay at home without my lappy with me regularly, with or without internet. So, I started to adapt the feeling of having not. This is the primary reason why I can't blog the regularity as I used to be. I won't be visibly seen online as frequent.
Fourth, is as always..I am broke. I wouldn't go into details of running my explanations why I am. In this life filled with frustrations, I have no other person to run to but the Most High.
I admittedly that I have refused to be in the church for some cheap and unreasonable argumentation.

Reposting and Reblogging: Viral Photo, Little Girl Gives Israeli Commander the Filipino version of Respect to Elders

My country has been the center of any natural catastrophic ever since and we haven't given up, instead, we fought and face it with so much bravery and courage.
Haiyan typhoon was recorded to be the strongest typhoon so far, it is even considered as the monster storms from the Pacific.
Herewith, is a nice article that I just recently read, it became viral and quickly spread like a wildfire. It moved and touched me that I couldn't help but to spread the message of reblogging it.


Captain Assaf Diller of IDF, experiences the gesture of a Filipino tradition, “MANO PO”.A beautiful and meaningful Filipino gesture to express respect and thanks … usually given to Filipino elders … holding their hand, bowing slightly to allow their hand to touch the forehead.This photo speaks volumes in expressing the deepest respect and profound thanks to the many, many hearts that were moved to help the Philippines.

While the displaced people tried to collect the pieces of their life after the devastating Typhoon that struck and left hundreds of thousands homeless, an officer from the Israeli Home Front Command sent help to those working with the local community.
Captain Assaf Diller, a company commander of the Israeli Home Front Command, reported from the field, describing the Israeli Delegations to the Philippines’ (IDP) work with survivors of Typhoon Haiyan. They stressed that the situation is bad, that the people are hungry and mostly don’t know how to help themselves.
Thanks to the work of the Israeli mission to the Philippines, 7 out of 20 classrooms ruined by Yolanda’s wrath in Bogo City Center have been restored and 350 students were able to return to school.The Israeli mission’s premise that having the students return to school will motivate the parents to return to work and be part of the overall thrust to restart their lives and town’s economy again.

The team was working within the hospital walls, too, but they returned to the school in Bogo City Center to visit, and were glad to see the students have returned to their studies, and to see that their toil of love has paid off. The Filipino teachers explained their presence to the students. The Israeli delegation went as far as teaching the students words and songs in Hebrew which excited them more.The conference hall was the Israeli team’s last project at the school; they removed the ceiling which had collapsed so the hall could be used again. The head of the educational institution could not thank them enough and it looks like the gesture of the little girl in the photo made more impact to the IDP.He narrates: “An amazing mission with tremendous personal satisfaction. It was a difficult day and a lot of work, but the smiles of the students make it worth it.”

29 Photos That Put All Of Our Struggles In Perspective

When I read this article, it really proves to me more that this planet we called earth and our home is no longer safe to be called a home. I barely know the chaos going on around the world. Men are becoming harsh, and wicked.
The world is becoming dirtier and unsafe. Truly, sin has completely destroys humankind and the perfections of this planet. Herewith, is the post that I thought is worth to share.

Re-blogging:
           From Huffingtonpost.com
   

Life can flutter between being terrible and terrific, but sometimes everything can all be proven worth it in just a sliver of time captured on camera.The Internet has a history of rounding up powerful photographs, but some images just go one step further and change your perspective on life and the challenges presented by the world we live in. All of these photographs may be once in a lifetime shots, but the tragedies and triumphs they document are those millions around the world face every day. We have an ugly and beautiful home, and it's entirely worth fighting for.
Warning: Some of the photos below are graphic:
1. There's this place called Earth. It can be often pretty surprising.

6. And just surviving childhood can be a struggle.
