JUST READ AND CARRY ON

The light turned off, darkness abound He open his eyes, dilated and tearful Nothing, Hopeless, Lonesome Spirit of St. John his only resort So the blind may see and appreciate Every wonderful creature God made Why suffer when you can enjoy? Even in total eclipse of blackness Reclaim your strength dear Brother You aren't alone in this battle You were always guided and loved Allow the angels to lighten you up

I wore a mask each day  To conform with societal standards I screamed but no one heard My deepest desire buried under ground When no one understands but yourself Hopes and aspirations faded Love for you never know  With time they'll accept your flaws So long as the bamboo lives on Earth The air never tires to provide Keep on moving for time will come When you love yourself, the universe loves you back

Our cries unheard from a distance Our woes uncertain of times  Helpless, hopeful, fearful, motionless Thy heart be strong, thy soul be still When thundering noise is all I hear Bullets of death threats our existence Oh angel of Divine Peace touch me That I may live with the madness of Earth!

Next, look for the office security guard and secure an application form. Completely fill out the information required on the paper. Most importantly do not misspell your name and please indicate your gender (haha, just fill it out completely). Afterwards, attach all needed documents as supporting evidence to verify your identity.

T oday is a wonderful opportunity to attend a mass ceremony presided by the reverend University Priest. The  timing is perfect. As preliminary examinations are already fast approaching, students start to meet so many deadlines for projects,assignments, home works and other requirements. Sleepless nights to review for quizzes and chapter tests is expected. After all, it's a part of student life. Often times students grapple with managing time efficiently while maintaining their sanity from the copious demands of work load. Not to mention financial requirements as payment of tuition and expenses for daily living including allowances for food, transportation and the like. Once a student, the university priest knows the hardship and challenges of attending college. "It is not an easy life; too many times your stamina is tested from various dilemmas" , was one of his point. He further went on to elaborate that we are sheep being sent on among wolves. The wolves being the ...
