Saturday, 10 January 2009. Mga muslim diha" - The 'Other' In Philippine Society. Needless to say, all eyes were suddenly on me, as my confession (that seems to be the right word for it) that I am an atheist has obviously not yet been digested. I must admit that the question "What do I believe in? But when I closed the book, I was still wondering: "What do I believe in? Do I care that evolution explains what people had so long seen as a magical creation of God? And I do believe it is needed. If you want t...

MayaFlaminda's Pen: Lola ni Bayani and Maya
http://mayaflaminda.blogspot.com/2011/05/lola-ni-bayani-and-maya.html
Saturday, May 7, 2011. Lola ni Bayani and Maya. On one of our many visits to Belgium, my usual exuberant mother told her mother-in-law, my Lola: “Mama, you haven’t changed! You’re still the same - still very sexy! 8221; Lola smiled shyly, “Normaaa! Lola would NEVER do that! 8221; Or when Mama would set the table with mismatched spoons and forks grabbed from airplanes, she’d say, “It’s good Lola doesn’t see this! Our memories of Lola always include our wonderful titas and titos who like to take long walks...

MayaFlaminda's Pen: December 2008
http://mayaflaminda.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 31, 2008. 2008 in a nutshell. It's the last day of December 2008. What a year it has been.

How was your day? Have a fabulastic 2009 everyone! Sunday, December 21, 2008. Random thoughts for the week. 4 Take note too that while the M...

MayaFlaminda's Pen: November 2008
http://mayaflaminda.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 28, 2008. Pards, the cool unconventional priest. Spent two days in a parish near Bukidnon and had the most fulfilling filming adventure to date. Filmed all the animals on the farm - pigs, chickens, geese, goats, and worms. (The worms are kept in a special cage and are fed with all sorts of debris. These are then digested and the excrement used as compost.) When I left kanina, another animal had been added - somebody had dropped off a pregnant cow as a present. Living frugally like this i...

MayaFlaminda's Pen: Pathetic happy endings
http://mayaflaminda.blogspot.com/2011/05/pathetic.html
Saturday, May 7, 2011. Loving is forgiving. But not when it’s the last straw. Marriage proposals and baby wishes come too late; sorrys sound empty; forever after are just words. Only pictures, chats, emails, and poems remain - to be easily trashed. For someone who has loved truly, madly, deeply for three years, moving on sucks. Now what if he comes back? Without hesitation: I’d still run into his arms. Pathetic. Then one year passes by,. And I meet someone different but interesting. LEAVE A COMMENT HERE.
