Human Deformities Caused by Bizarre Diseases or Physical Anomalies

Massive Hand



The man with the largest hand in the world underwent a seven-hour surgery in Shanghai to reduce it and make it functional. Before the surgery, his left thumb was 10.2 inches long and his index finger measured close to 12 inches.

Fibroma


Fibroma is a skin disease involving connective-tissue new growth. It appears on the body ­as one or many pea to egg-sized or larger, soft or firm, round or flattened, painless tumors located beneath the skin. In the worst cases, these growths can cover the entire body.

Humans with Horns



Human Horns Once thought to be a myth, the incidence of human being growing “horns” is now documented. These cutaneous horns, also called cornu cutaneum are actually skin lesions, which cone-shaped protuberances grow from, creating the appearance of a horn

This 8-year-old girl from China suffers from a large tumor in her lower lip. She was born with the tumor and her family has been unable to afford the surgery to remove it.



Hypertrichosis is a medical condition characterized by the excessive growth of hair on places on the body where hair usually does not grow. Congenital Hypertrichosis is extremely rare and those who suffer from it are often called human werewolves. Reminds us of Teen Wolf a little bit…

No results were found for plastic surgery

This Indonesian man’s condition is the worst case scenario for those with from HPV. Of course, Dede also suffered from a genetic condition, which cause his immune system to not be able to combat the spread of this diseases’ symptoms – which in most cases are warts. Interestingly, specialists claim that his condition could have been abetted by high dosages of Vitamin B. Long-referred to as “tree man” because his resemblence to a tree, he has recently undergone a series of surgeries to remove the tree-like growths from his body, and is already on a road to recovery.

Haemangioma, a condition that causes abnormalities in the capillaries and veins in his face. Blood pools in his face, which has caused him to develop a huge weeping facial tumor. He is commonly called “The Man with No Face.” He has refused medical treatment because he is a Jehovah’s Witness.


Spina bifida: A birth defect (a congenital malformation) in which there is a bony defect in the vertebral column so that part of the spinal cord, which is normally protected within the vertebral column, is exposed. People with spina bifida can suffer from bladder and bowel incontinence, cognitive (learning) problems and limited mobility.

Spina bifida is caused by the failure of the neural tube to close during embryonic development. The neural tube is the embryonal structure that gives rise to the brain and spinal cord.

The risk of spina bifida varies according to country, ethnic group and socioeconomic status. In the US as a whole, spina bifida occurs in about one in every 1-2,000 births. The risk of spina bifida and other neural tube defects such as anencephaly can be decreased by women taking folic acid supplements before they conceive and during the first months of their pregnancy.

Anencephaly is the absence of brain and spinal chord, a congenital defect. There is no cure or standard treatment for anencephaly and the prognosis for affected individuals is poor. Most anencephalic babies do not survive birth.



Albinism is a rare disorder found in fewer than five people per 100,000 in the United States and Europe. Other parts of the world have a much higher rate; for example, albinism is found in about 20 out of every 100,000 people in southern Nigeria.
There are 10 types of the most common form of the condition, known as "oculocutaneous albinism," which affects the eyes, hair, and skin. In its most severe form, hair and skin remain pure white throughout life. People with a less severe form are born with white hair and skin, which turn slightly darker as they age. Everyone with oculocutaneous albinism experiences abnormal flickering eye movements (nystagmus) and sensitivity to bright light. There may be other eye problems as well, including poor vision and crossed or "lazy" eyes (strabismus).
The second most common type of the condition is known as "ocular" albinism, in which only the eyes lack color; skin and hair are normal. There are five forms of ocular albinism; some types cause more problems-especially eye problems-than others.



Elephantiasis is the final chronic stage of a filariasis caused by the presence in the blood and lymph of a parasitic nematode worm. It is characterized by the thickening and hardening of the skin, together with an enormous enlargement of the part affected, usually the lower extremities. Its proper medical name is “neurofibrome.”

With God’s mercy and blessings plus advance technology in science and medicine, something can still be done to either cure an unusual disease or correct a physical defect.



The term cyclopia is commonly used to describe either the abnormality of true cyclopia in which a single median eye is the only ocular structure present or synophthalmia in which two globes (right and left eyes) are partially fused in the median position. Cyclopia (also cyclocephaly or synophthalmia) is a rare and severe form of holoprosencephaly and is a congenital disorder (birth defect) characterized by the failure of the embryonic prosencephalon to properly divide the orbits of the eye into two cavities. Its incidence is 1 in 16,000 in born animals, and 1 in 250 in embryos.

Cyclopes are rare congenital abnormalities; a severe form of holoprosencephaly resulting in children being born with just one eye. It results from failure of the cerebral hemisphere to separate during fetal development. The incidence is 1 in 13,000 live births but present in 1 in 2500 pregnancies that end up as miscarriage. It is incompatible with life. In this report we present a Cyclops delivered via cesarean section on account of ante partum hemorrhage secondary to placental previa type 11a.

Paring Pugot (beheaded Priest)



Itong susunod na kwentong ito ay ang pinaka-nakakatakot na naranasan ko sa buhay ko. Nangyari ito sa mga taon ng aking Kolehiyo. Kasama ko ang Pamilya at Kaibigan ko sa bakasyon. Ang Nanay ko at ang Ate ko ay kasama ang ma matatanda ng pumuta sila sa probinsya para magbakasyon. We would meet them half way to our grand parent’s house the next morning where we planned to visit the old folks.

Within the confines of my room, surrounded by religious icons, I felt safe. Nasa kwarto ako kasi ang mga Kaibigan ko ay nag-eenjoy sa Preskong hangin sa labas. Nakatayo sa taas ng bundok tumitingin sa gabing puno ng bituin ay tunay nakakalulo sayang lang kasi pagod ako at mas pinili kong magpahinga sa loob.

Nakaupo sa kama, ine-enjoy magbasa ng libro para kahit papano makalimutan ko ang mga problema sa school. Simula na ng makaramdam ako ng presensya papunta sa kwarto.

Hindi ko masabi kung ang nararamdaman kong enerhiya ay buhay o hindi. Sa umpisa pinabayaan ko lang ito at itinuloy ang pagbabasa ko ng libo. pagkatapos ng ilang minuto, nakarinig ako ng tumatawag sakin. It sounded like a soft caring voice. Pamilyar ang boses na ito sakin, kaso hindi ko malaman kung sino talaga ito. Alam ko na hindi talaga ito normal, tumatagos ang tunog ng boses niya sa bawat sulok ng kwarto. Naka-amoy din ako ng Sulfur sa hangin.

Kahit na mala-anghel ang boses, Naka-amoy ako ng sobrang malisyosong bagay. Nanginig ako at bumilis ang tibog ng puso ko. Naramdaman ko ang temperature ng kwarto bumababa ng bumababa. At may nagsabi “Kilala kita”. pagkatapos, sa garagal na boses sinabi nito ang apilyedo ko.

Ng marinig ko to, Nahulog ang librong binabasa ko. Pinikit ko ang mata ko, pinipilit kong kalimutan kung ano talaga ang nangyayari sakin. Inuulit-ulit kong sabihin sa aking isip ang katagang “As I walk to the valley in the shadow of death I shall fear no evil for thy rod thy staff they comfort me”.

Inuulit ko ito ng ilang minuto ng nakikinig lang sa aking boses at kinalimutan ko ang ibang bagay maliban doon. Sa hindi malaman na dahilan, umiinit ng umiinit ang katawan ko. Nararamdaman ko na ang kamay ko ay nasusunog at may tumutunog sa tenga ko. Gumaan ang ulo ko at unti-unting lumalabo ang paningin ko. Nawala ako sa sarili ko at nanghina ako. Hindi ko na alam kahit ano ang taas at baba.

Naririnig ko itong tumatawa kaso nung tumagal parang unti-unting tumutunog sadista ito. Tunog halong babae at lalaki ito. Hindi ko ito mai-kumpara pero alam ko hindi ito multo. Sinubukan kong itanong anong kailangan nito pero ang malisyoso at makamatay na pakiramdam ay yun ang nangingibabaw. Nanigas ako sa takot.

Desperado akong subukan na alisin ang takot. Alam kong kapag hindi ko makontrol ang aking emosyon MAMAMATAY AKO SA KWARTONG TO. Ang palaisipang bumabanaig sa aking isip na bumabagabag sa aking konsentrasyon ay siyang natitira. Yun na lang ang pinanghahawakan ko. Naalala ko kung gaano ako ka-desperado nung gabing yun.

At dun nagsimula ang makulit na imahinasyon ko tungkol sa katatakutan. Tortures, murder, pagan worship, lahat ng ito ay nasa isip ko. Sinubukan kong alisin ito sa pag-iisip ng bagay. Naririnig ko ang paghalakhak at pagtawa nito.

Nakahiga ako sa kama ng parang walang pakiramdam. Alam ko na hindi ko ito mabubuwag kung pinanghahawakan ko ang takot ko na gawin ang alam kong dapat gawin. Alam ko na kailangan ko ng tulong ng Diyos.

Sa aking huling enerhiya at tapang, nagawa kong kunin ang Rosaryo sa bulsa ko at nagdasal. Hinawakan ko ito ng mahigpit. Ang kamay ko ay sobrang namamanhid na hindi ko maramdaman na hawak ko ang rosaryo. Nararamdaman ko na palipat-lipat ito ng likasyon. Ang bilis nito at hindi ko makuha ang tunay na lokasyon nito.

Nagdasal ako ng AMA NAMIN habang hinihigpitan ko ang hawak ko sa rosaryo. sa ilang sandali hindi ko siya naramdaman. Lumalakas nga ang boses ko subalit parang sumasabay lang ito sakin. It sounded like this entity is right near my ear whispering. Nakidasal ito sakin. Dahan-dahan kong pinalitan ang dasal ko sa Latin ng sandali ay sinabi kong PATER NOSTER - Our Lord’s Prayer in Latin. Tinuro ito sakin ng Lolo ko nung bata pa ako

Nung oras na ito naalala ko ang payo ng Pari na kaibigan ng Nanay ko. Sinabi niya sakin kapag nagkaroon ako ng problema na nasusubukan ang aking pananalig, isipin na nag-sakripisyo si Hesus para sa ating lahat. Na tiniis niya ang torture at pagpapako sa krus para maligtas ang kaluluwa natin. Na hindi niya tayo pababayaan na sa panahong lubos natin siyang kailangan.

Sa ilang saglit pinalitan ko naman ang dasal ko na Apostles Creed. Ito ang dasal na sinusubukan ang pananalig mo sa diyos. Buong puso akong nanalangin. Gusto kong malaman nito na kung saan ako matapat. Nanahimik ito. Naramdaman ko ang presensya nito na patuloy ng humihina. Unti-unti nang nawawala ang takot sakin. Dahan-dahan akong tumayo. Ramdam kong nanginginig ang Kamay at Tuhod ko. Dahan-dahan at sigurado kong binalik ang aking lakas. During this time I could sense the entity moving wildly in the room.

Pinabayaan ko itong humalakhak, ang tunog na ito ay nawalang bigla. Ang boses na yun ay nawala na sa wakas. Hindi ko na naramdaman ang mala-demonyong, malisyoso at makamatay na hamog na pinalibutan ang buong gabi ko. Nang oras na yun naramdaman kong tumutulo ang dugo ko galing sa aking kaliwang kamay. Hinawakan ko ng mahigpit at hindi ko naramdaman na bumaon na para ito sa aking palad.

Pumunta ako sa banyo para lagyan ng lunas ang sugat ko. Nakatingin ako sa salamin at napansin ko na parang may katabi akong itim na hugis tao. Ang pakiramdam ito ay laging naiisip ko sa mga oras na may naiisip akong nakakatakot. Sa kalmadong boses sinabi ko sa sarili ko na ayos lang ako at pinagpatuloy ko ang paglagay ko ng lunas sa sugat ko.

Pagkatapos ng nakakatakot na pangyayari, may narinig akong sigaw galing sa labas. Sigaw ng aking mga kaibigan at pinsan. Kinakabahan sila ng sinabi sakin na may nangyari sa kanilang nakakatakot. Isa sa mga kaibigan ko na may sugat. Tinanong nila sakin kung anung nangyari sakin at nagpalusot ako na nahiwa ko ang sarili ko ng binubuksan ko ang bote ng beer.

Napaupo sila at kinwento nila yung nangyari sa kanila nung nagsasaya sila, ng napagdesisyunan ng isa sa kanila na maglaro ng Oujia Board na ibang bersyon ng Spirit of the Glass. Alam ng isang kaibigan ko ang pang-umpisang ritwal kaya madali lang sa kanila at mabilis lang ang pag-umpisa.

Nakilala ko ito as CAleb. Sa umpisa ayos lang si CALEB. Nawala sa sarili si Caleb at nagsalita ng kung ano-ano. Ang kaibigan ko na gagawa ng pang-tapos na ritwal, sadyang malakas si Caleb. Nabasag ang baso at ang mga bubog nito ang nakapag-sugat sa isa kong kaibigan.

Sumisigaw sila ng kumuha sila ng Upuan para ihampas sa pinyo. Sinubukan nilang lumabas pero hindi nila magawa. Lahat ay biglang natahimik at nakalma. Pagkatapos ng saktong 45 minuto nakalabas na sila sa takot. Hindi na kailangang sabihin, nakatulog lang sila sa mga Upuan.

Ito na ang kakaibang bagay. Nang may nangyayari sakin, meron din palang nangyayari dun sa mga pinsan at kaibigan ko. Ang kaibigan ko na pasimuno ng Spirit of the Glass sinabi niya sakin na pagkatapos ng panimulang ritwal nag-amoy Sulfur daw dun. Ang amoy na kumalat sa kanilang experience habang may tumatawa at Naghahampas ng mga upuan..

Sinabi namin ito sa ibang mga kamag-anak namin, ngunit wala daw silang narinig na mga upuan na hinahampas sa ding-ding. Pero, pumunta kami sa kwartong yun na kung saan bakas parin ang nangyari sa gabing iyon. Ang kwartong iyon ay sobrang magulo at ang isang upuan pa ay putol. Ang tiya ko ay daling tumawag ng Pari para dasalan ang kwarto.

Ngayong araw, meron paring mga tanong na bumabagabag sakin. Paano yun? Paano akong nasama dun sa ginawa nilang ritwal? Paano niya akong inatake ng mag-isa? Paano nito nalaman ang Apilyedo ko?

Human Parasites

Hookworm
From the big screen: The hookworm, which lives and dies in your small intestine and feeds on your blood. You can become infected by walking barefoot or swallowing contaminated soil.



Tongue Parasite
Rhinosporidiosis
In your mouth: This is a particularly disturbing one called Rhinosporidiosis. Once considered a fungus. Now considered a parasite. The disgusting factor hasn’t changed. Drinking contaminated water is a likely source of infection.




Pubic Lice, Phthirus pubis

Habitat: Crab or pubic lice lay their eggs on coarse body hair, particularly the hair associated with the pubic regions, perianal region, thighs, abdomen, and armpits, but they will also infest a person's beard and eyelashes. These lice are much less mobile than head or body lice, they can remain attached with their mouthparts in the skin for days at a time. Pubic lice are typically found only on humans and are most often transmitted directly from person to person, particularly during sexual contact. When crab lice feed they can inject saliva into the host, causing pruritus and itching. Scratching the area can increase the irritation. The area can become scaly and hardened with oozing lesions. Painless blue spots can appear after crab lice feed. Other evidence of crab lice includes the occurence of rust-colored insect exretions and darker spots in underwear and flakes similar to dandruff in pubic hair.
Life Cycle: Females lay about 30 to 90 eggs or so during their lifetime. Eggs hatch after about six to eight days. Young lice then pass through three more stages before becoming adults. The period from egg to adult requires about 23 days. Adults will not live beyond 24 hours after being removed from a human host.
Description: The pubic louse is grey in colour, and smaller (1.25 -2 mm) than the head and body louse. Their body shape is oval and broader than long, with four distinct lobe-like protuberances on each side of their abdomen. The lice have a small head with short antennae and simple eyes. Each of the six legs of the louse terminates in a claw, but claws on the second and third pair of legs are huge compared to the first pair which are slender. Within each claw there is an associated thumb-like projection which enables the louse to grasp body hair.

Pubic Lice
Nether regions: Pubic lice, AKA the crabs. These are small, six-legged creatures that infect the pubic hair area and lay eggs, according to Google Health. They can also be found in armpit hair and eyebrows (probably preferred compared to the alternative). Can be treated with a prescription wash. Resist the urge to use fire.





worst human parasites - tapeworm
Tapeworm
Also in your gut: The good old tapeworm. A parasite of many stories. Including how they’ve been used to help people lose weight. Snopes.com, an urban myth debunking site, lists the tapeworm diet pill story as “undetermined.” Either way, it’s a good idea to cook your meat thoroughly.



Eye Worm African eye worm In your eye: Known as the African eye worm, or loa loa, this is a nematode that requires a male and female in the host for full infection to ensue, according to Stanford University. This parasite is transmitted by Chrysops fly bites. It’s endemic in the rainforests of West and Central Africa, but has also been diagnosed in tourists.

Naniniwala ba kayo sa Aswang?

Maraming bagay dito sa mundo ang hindi kapanipaniwala. Maraming bagay ang hindi natin inaasahan.

Mga kababalaghang hindi natin matukoy kung totoo ba o bunga lamang ng ating himahinasyon.

Naniniwala ka ba sa Aswang? Paano kung totoo? Paano kung malaman mong ang taong iniibig mo ay nakatago sa dilim? Ano ang gagawin mo?



Wala lang po natanong lang... para maiba naman ang topic hehehe...

Alam ninyo po nung bata pa ako ay hindi ako naniniwala sa aswang, pero sa mundong ating ginagalawan maraming mga pangyayari na hindi natin maipaliwanag, Maraming mga bagay na nangyayari na kahit sino ay walang makapagbigay liwanag. hayaan ninyo po na i share ko sa inyo ang aking mga karanasan tungkol sa kung may aswang ba talaga.

Isa pong Quack doctor ang aking ama or ang tinatawag na manggagamot sa provinsya sa dinami dami ng ginagamot niya dito ko nakita na totoo pala ang mga ENGKANTO, ASWANG, DUWENDE, KAPRE, MGA MANGKUKULAM, MANANANGGAL, WHITE LADY. Engkanto mga Nilalang na namumuhay sa kabilang daigdig na may kakayahan silang sumapi sa katawan ng isang tao na kung ika'y may kakayanan na makausap sila ay sasabihin nila sa iyo kung anong klaseng nilalang sila at kung saan sila nanggaling.

ASWANG - na may kapit bahay kaming buntis hating gabi na iyun ng may maramdaman akong parang malaking ibon lumilipad at ng silipin ko sa aming bintana ay isang parang napakalaking ibon na lumilipad na parang tao.. at nang kinaumagahan nagkakagulo ang mga kapit bahay namin dahil ang buntis na kapit bahay namin, namatay ang sanggol sa kanyang sinapupunan na sabi ng kanyang asawa ay inaswang.

DUWENDE - Na sa kwento ng aking ama na may mga alaga siyang duwende sa aming punong santol na nung nahulog ako sa napakataas ng punong santol na iyun, ni wala man alang akong pilay or galos at nung nahulog ako at parang binuhat ako na nahulog akong papaupo.

MANGKUKULAM - Mga taong gumagamit ng mga itim na kapangyarihan, na sa pamamagitan ng mga litrato or manika ay may kakayahan silang bigyan ng matinding karamdaman ang sino mang kanilang gustong kulamin. Na may nagamot din ang aking ama na isang kinukulam na bakit nung ipatingin sa doctor ang sanhi ng paglaki ng tiyan noong tao ay walang makitang findings ang doctor na sinabi ng doctor na walang sakit ang tao.

White Lady - na mismong ako ang nakakita isang gabi kabilugan ng buwan sa puno ng aming santol, na parang nakalutang lang siya sa hangin na nakaputi at mahaba ang buhok na hindi ko nakita ang mukha dahil nung nakita ko na nakalutang ay nagtatakbo ako paakyat sa bahay namin noong panahon na iyun ay kabilugan ng buwan, medyo mahangin na may ambon ambon.

At ito pa maniwala kayo sa hindi ako po ay may kaibigang engkanto, ito po ay sumasapi sa isa kong kaibigan na kapag siya'y aking nakakausap kung anong buhay meron sila kinukwento niya na ang parang pamumuhay daw ng isang tao ang kanilang buhay hindi natin sila nakikita pero sila'y nakikihalubilo sa ating mundo.

Opo mahirap paniwalaan ang mga bagay na iyan, pero dapat nating isipin na hindi lang tayong tao ang nilikha ng diyos, marami din naninirahan sa ibang mundo na hindi natin nakikita na dapat nating nirerespeto totoo man sila o hindi.

Kaya para sa akin Totoo na may aswang, engkanto, maligno, duwendo or kahit ano pa yan totoo na nandito sila sa ating mundong ginagalawan na kung may kapangyarihan at kakayahan lang ang lahat ng tao upang sila'y makita at paniwalaan ay makikita sila.

Kung ano man meron sa ating mundo dapat po nating i respeto..InnocentKiss

Ano Nga Ba Ang Kahulugan Ng PAg-big

Love? ano nga ba ang definition nito? Marami sa atin ang may kanya kanyang pakahulugan sa salitang ito…Kung titignan ntin sa dictionary ang meaning ng love ay "A deep, tender, ineffable feeling of affection and solicitude toward a person, such as that arising from kinship, recognition of attractive qualities, or a sense of underlying oneness"…pero tayo ano ba ang definition natin ng love? Ito ay isang malalim na salita na mahirap bigyan ng kahulugan, pero sa iba mababaw lang ang pakahulugan nila sa salitang ito…Bawat tao ay may kanya kanya rin pagpapakita ng pagmamahal sa taong mahal nila…pano mo ito mapapakita sa kanya? Pano nga ba mapaparamdam sa taong yun na mahal natin sila? Minsan kasi kahit pinapakita, sinasabi o pinaparamdam na natin sa taong mahal natin na mahal natin sila parang kulang pa din sa kanila hindi parin nila maramdaman ang bagay na gusto nating iparating sa kanila…Siguro nga alam lang nila sa salita pero hindi nila alam ang pakiramdam nito, syempre malalaman mo lang ang isang bagay kapag naramdaman mo na ito, kapag nasaktan kana, pero kahit anong gawin mo sa taong mahal mo, maipakita mo man ng maayos ang pagmamahal mo sa kanya o hindi…yung tao pa rin na yun ang magdedesisyon para sa sarili nya kung ano gusto nya, ang mahalaga napakita natin sa kanya at naparamdam na importante sila….

Image003 Marami ang lumuluha sa pag-ibig o pwede din nating sabihin na consequences ng pagmamahal…Kapag nagmamahal ka dapat handa ka rin na masaktan? Bakit ko ito nasabi? Dahil ganun talaga, hindi sa lahat ng bagay smooth flowing ang isang relasyon, maraming pagsubok na dadating, mga bagay na di natin kapang ipredict na dadating…Sino ba tayo para magbigay ng sumbat o maling pagkokomento sa mga taong may mga maling nagagawa bunga ng pag-ibig…wala tayong karapatan na manumbat sa kapwa natin walang taong perpekto…Hindi kasi natin maiintindihan hanggang hindi tayo nalalagay sa ganung sitwasyon…"Learning from your own experience" ika nga…..sobrang mahiwaga talaga ng pag-ibig…mahirap isipin kung tutuusin, kailangan ng malawak na pang-unawa sa bagay na ito….Hindi simple lang ito, ito ay bagay na malalim at puno ng misteryo sabi pa nga ng iba "Love is like a rosary that full of mystery" totoo di ba? Kung hindi kapa nakakaranas magmahal marahil hindi mo maiintindihan ang bagay na sinasabi ko pero darating ang araw na mauunawaan nyo rin ito…kapag mas naging bukas na ang inyong isip sa pang-unawa sa mga bagay na mahirap bigyan ng kahulugan. Wag basta humusga sa kapwa…

M Pano nga ba makakalimutan ang taong naging parte ng buhay natin….mahirap itong kalimutan pero hindi ibig sabihin na di natin sila kayang palayain…Kung kinakailangan at alam natin na mas makakabuti iyon sa kanya marahil magagawa natin iyon at kung saan ba magiging masaya ang taong yun, kahit ang dulot nito sa atin ay matinding sakit at malaking sugat sa puso, sugat na di na maghihilom pa…alam natin sa sarili natin kung malalim ba o mababaw ang sugat na iyon…Patuloy ang buhay kahit may pilat ang puso, pero patuloy na aasa na balang araw ay mas malaman pa ang kahulugan kung bakit nangyari iyon sa ating buhay…Bawat pagsubok na dumadating sa ating buhay ang syang nagpapatatag satin…bawat luhang papatak ay luha ng pagmamahal at pag-asa dahil habang may hininga kailangang mabuhay at kailangan din magmahal…Ginagawa natin ito para sa sarili natin kasi sa pagmamahal lang tao mas nagkakaroon ng pag-asa at lakas ng loob…

SmileyspoonSa iba naman dahil sa pagmamahal nagkakaroon ng katuparan ang pagmamahalan ng isang tao kapag pinagbuklod na silang dalawa….Buklod na hindi lamang simbahan at mga tao ang saksi kundi alam nila sa sarili nila na mahal nila ang kasama nila…..may mga tao na saksi lamang ang simbahan at mga tao pero sa loob ng puso nila iba ang tinitibok nito…wala na lamang magawa kundi sumunod sa agos ng buhay nagbabakasakali na baka tama nga ang kanilang naging desisyon…..sino nga ba ang nakakaalam? Ang tanging makakaalam lamang nito ay ang mismong tao na nakakaramdam. Sinusubukang magpakabuti sa kabiyak ngunit lumilingon pabalik ang puso…

Pic25547 Sadyang maikli lamang ang buhay ng tao kya hanggang nandito pa sa mundo ang taong mahal natin, ipakita o iparamdam na natin sa taong mahal natin na mahal natin sila kasi kapag nawala na sila sa mundong ito at saka pa lamang natin marealize na mahal natin sila, magsisisi tayo na sana pinaramdam natin nung buhay pa sila na importante sila sa buhay natin, na espesyal sila…

Aa Kapag bata kapa madalas nagmamadali sa bagay na di napagiisipan ng maiigi, desisyon na maaring mali o maaari din na tama…..Pag-ibig na bubot o hilaw pa….pero pag bata pa tayo di natin ito naiintindihan…Marami ang may mga bagay na gusto pa sanang gawin sa buhay nila pero wala na magawa dahil sa desisyon na nagawa, yung iba marahil ay di masaya sa bagay na iyon pero sa iba naging masaya din naman sila kahit papano….Dahil kesyo mabait naman ang kapartner nila…..At may iba pang reason na tanging sila lamang ang nakakaalam…Pero meron din naman na naggrow ang pagmamahal kahit nagsimula sa batang pag-ibig…Pero dahil may kanya kanyang buhay o destiny ang isang tao, di lahat ng tao ay parehas ang maaaring maging takbo ng buhay…maaring maganda maari din na hindi…

JKailangang ipaglaban ang pagmamahal kasi mas lubos lang ang kasiyahan mo kapag alam mo na yung kasama mo ay ang taong mahal mo pero sadyang marupok ang tao…madaling sumuko…kung sino lamang ang malapit yun nalang ang binibigyan ng pagtatangi…sabagay marahil ay tama sila dun…Mahirap magbigay ng komento sa bagay na iyan…Siguro kailangan nalang na intindihin dahil di natin hawak ang kapalaran…Pabago bago ang buhay…walang permanente, minsan akala natin matatag na tayo pero kahit sa haba ng panahon dadating pala ang dagok ng buhay, pagibig na puno ng saya at ligaya sa una pero sa huli pala ay maglalahong parang bula. Kung gano kabilis dumating ito ay gnun din kabilis na mawawala…parang kailan lang ngsusumpaan pa kayo na hanggang wakas ay walang iwanan pero mayamaya lang pala ay iba na ang sinasabi nya, na nagbago na sya, kailangan nya magmove on, wala tayong magawa kundi irespeto ang desisyon nila kasi tama naman ang reason nila, may point sila sa bagay na gusto nilang mangyari…

R Sadyang mahiwaga ang pag-ibig kaya magpasalamat tayo kapag ito ay dumaan sa ating buhay dahil naranasan natin magmahal at mahalin…Sinasabing minsan lang sa buhay natin dadaan ang isang wagas na pag-ibig…Maraming tanong sa ating isipan tungkol sa mga bagay na may kaugnayan sa puso…ngunit wala tayong makuhang kasagutan…pero alam natin sa puso natin na mahal natin sila…na sinusubukan nating gawin ang bagay na alam nating magpapaligaya sa kanila…

W Ang greater love na tinatawag ay ang pagbibigay ng pagmamahal sa kapwa ng walang hinihinging kapalit,tinatawag na unconditional love…Mahirap gawin di ba? Iisipin ng marami na nagpapakatanga ka pero di kasi nila maintindihan ang mga bagay bagay kaya gnun na lang sila mghusga sa kapwa…Masyadong matalim ang kanilang dila sa pagsasalita ng masamang salita para sa kanilang kapwa.

Image001_1 Iiwanan ko kayo ng isang katanungan…para sa inyo ano ba talaga ang pag-ibig o pagmamahal?

How I Met My Wife

So, I'm married.

Everything really has changed in a unique and wonderfully-surprising way. I'm not quite sure where to begin, but I know that every great story must be told, so here is my attempt at ours.

I met Ashley Anne Cooney three summers ago. The whole thing was rather serendipitous and unexpected. We, who had attended the same college for years, were brought together weeks before both of us would graduate. She needed help planning an outdoor party, and evidently, I had achieved some kind of superstar barbecuer status. Or, she just picked the guy with the brightest-orange hair. Either way, I was honored.

That summer, we both stayed in town after graduation while all of our friends took off. A small college town is a pitiful sight when all the students have gone home. There were four or five of us who hung out on a regular basis, and Ashley was part of that group.

What's particularly strange about that whole summer is that I had no intention of sticking around. I was young and adventurous, and young adventurers don't stay put in one place too long. I wanted to go to Texas for my third summer at camp, but I heard the Lord tell me to stay. I can't say that I didn't fight it most of the summer, but even when I got an offer in July to come down and help (they were desperate), I had to turn it down. I knew God was up to something.

Ashley and I became friends pretty quickly and before long, we were each other's main confidante. It was such a strange and beautiful summer, full of wonderful memories. One night, we stayed up all night on my front porch telling stories just because we could. Another night, I took her for a walk to go star-gazing in the football field, where I dropped the infamous "So, here's the deal..." line, told her how I felt about her, and later held her hand. There were even times when we cried together. But the summer ended, and I left for another adventure, not promising anything, except that I would pray for her.

And I did--every day for a year. We wrote letters and talked on the phone occasionally. We went out of our way to see each other, even if it meant driving hours to share a few precious minutes together. The next summer, we confessed that we loved each other. We both moved to Nashville in the fall, got jobs and separate apartments, and tried to see if we could deal with seeing each other on a regular basis. We had some trials, but persevered and decided that we didn't really want to do life without each other. That following spring, I proposed to her, and on January 12, 2008, I got to marry my best friend.

There are a hundred details I left out, but that's the gist of how I met my wife. She is the most interesting, fun, and beautiful person I have ever known. She makes my life interesting and surprises me often. I have learned more about God, love, and commitment from her than I have from any other person. I am lucky to have ever met her and consider it an honor to be called her husband.

My Proposal Story: She Said, Yes

I asked my girlfriend Ashley to marry me yesterday morning. At 5:57 am, I called her up and asked her to step outside for a moment and follow the music. She was led to a little clearing in a small grove of trees just outside of her apartment. She sat down on the blanket laid over a small hump of leaves and dirt.

Guitar in hand, I played the chorus to her favorite song, and segued into the first song I ever wrote for her, but changed some words and added a final verse, asking her to marry me.

She seemed to be enjoying the music, but once I got to this phrase in the song, her eyes got really big. I wondered if she was thinking, "Now? This is happening now? No make-up, in my pajamas, out in a forest?"

Still playing my guitar, I recited 1 Corinthians 13 to her as a reminder to us both of what true love calls for - total sacrifice. It's been a difficult road these past two years of learning that.

There have been times when I thought about giving up; I guess that I didn't realize I had so much selfishness to work through. Time and time again, God has told us that if we want this to work that it's going to cost us everything, including ourselves. It took me awhile to accept that and little while longer to embrace it. Now, it brings so much peace.

I asked her, in song, on bended knee, and she accepted before I could even pull out the ring, which was tied to the string of my hooded sweatshirt and tucked away. I explained to her that I was tired of living separate lives, of not being able to plan our future together without feeling awkward. I didn't want to spend another day with that uncertainty. Again, I asked her, and she said, "Yes."

I slid the ring on her hand, and it fit. I kissed her forehead, and we hugged each other. It was one of the tightest hugs she's ever given me. We lay down on the blanket for a little while and just embraced each other.

With the light of dawn beginning to break and that beautiful quiet of early morning, we were caught up in an idyllic dream state - hidden in the brush, away from the world, sleepily gazing at each other. With only the sound of our breath and the birdsongs, it was an intimate moment, and I treasured it.

What If You Met Jesus On THe Street

I was walking down the street, absorbing the smells of a new culture. Mexico. I had read about it, seen pictures of it, and even tasted it in local authentic restaurants. But being here was something completely different - it was more joy and more sadness than I had expected.

I saw a man crouched in the corner of a building, hidden behind a three-foot-tall concrete wall. He watched the passersby but did not beg anything from them. I asked him if he would like some bread. He shouted something in Spanish back at me that I did not understand. I left the safety of my side of the wall, passing through the entrance to the small courtyard where the middle-aged man was sitting. I gave him a loaf of bread, which he eagerly began eating in front of me.

When I inquired his name, he said, "Jesus de Nazaret de la Cruz." Como? I didn't quite catch that. "Jesus de Nazaret de la Cruz," he reminded. Ah yes, of course. Jesus of Nazareth of the Cross. Crazy Catholic countries and their overly-religious-sounding names. This man was homeless, after all, and already seemed to be showing signs of mental illness. In my mind, I thought, "Suuuure, buddy."

Yet, when I looked into his eyes, I saw a familiar softness.

I was hungry, and you fed me.

I was thirsty, and you gave me drink.

I was a stranger, and you took me in.

I was having trouble making those verses practical. It was a nice idea, poetry even, but could it be literally true? In college, I learned all about the symbolism of the Bible and the importance of understanding the context of each story. What was the context here?

As you have done it to the least of these, you have done it to me. (Matthew 25)

And I smiled back at this man, who was my Savior with skin on. We conversed for I'm not sure how long. He sang a song for me about the Spirit of God living in him, and the Spirit inside of me sang back. He mentioned the Bible, and I brought out my Spanish New Testament.

He eyed it with the wonder of a child. Opening it with care, he picked out a familiar passage about Christ from one of the gospels and read it out loud and with pride.

He offered me some of his "water," and I told him he didn't need that. He had streams of living water flowing inside him. As I walked away, I caught a glance of him picking the Bible back up and reading another passage.
The Church has forgotten how to meet Jesus. We have forgotten that he will join us on the streets, in the most broken of places, and where he is, there is liberty. Go find it.
