some lines from the book...

" In time, only three days really matter: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow.
Yesterday is all of the days that have come before today. Tomorrow is all of the days that will come after today. Three days are all that we have in which to live our lives."

" No matter where you find happiness, you must give yourself time to experience it.
It takes time to find purpose, and it takes time to be happy.
Give yourself the gift of time. If you do not give yourself time to be happy, no one else will."

Iconic Deaths

Short note written last August 2, 2009 at 6:58am

It's kinda weird that really important people in different fields (historic people) died in the 1st half of the year. (year 2009)

first, it was Francis Magalona who was considered the "Master Rapper" who also stirred Filipino patriotism through his songs...

then, we have Michael Jackson who was the "king of pop" but i would rather call him "the Greatest Performer that ever lived" who transcends race, religion, nationality through his music (e.g. Heal the World)

and now, we have former Pres. Corazon Aquino who made history through her contribution in the People Power Revolution at EDSA during the Marcos regime (thou i will not give her the entire credit for EDSA I coz there were also other impt. people who contributed to that historic event like the late Jaime Cardinal Sin), where she became the symbol for democracy and the world was awed by that bloodless revolution - kinda like Mahatma Ghandi revolting in peaceful ways. (but then again, Ghandi was 1 man and EDSA I was an entire nation)

their deaths kinda makes one think..."what legacy will you leave behind when you die?"
