A Heart That Cares

          Since then, it has been a part of my daily tasks to check on the daily news both online and on visual. Answering my thirst for knowledge, I make it a habit so that I can update myself with what's going on around me. As a result, it gives me mixed emotions such as joy, sadness, awe, etc to know how complicated this world has become. One of those things that catches much of my attention is the plight of innocent children being born and raised in poverty, hunger, and cruelty sometimes brought by mankind. Nevertheless, I would say that this one is universal hence beyond one's control. Beyond their innocence hides the richness of their future. Seeing such reality, my heart is moved with compassion and pity to think of such a sad fact in life.  

          Personally I know that if people would just genuinely desire it on their hearts to commit in assisting them from all their unhealthy situations then most probably, many will be blessed with a bright future instead. Such a moving scene when I witness them lingering on the streets doing nothing and exposing themselves to the dangers of the society like drugs and other vices. Though I understand that they are devoid of resources to trek a positive journey since they are born with parents with no jobs and in some cases with vices but I know and feel that something positive is still could be done.

          Moreover, the craving of my heart is to offer compassion to them in a sense hoping to bring them light and hope. I know that there are people out there who are also feeling the same way as I do. And it will continue to be my heart's dream for them that more kindhearted people will extend them a sense of light through the following: 

  • providing them needs like school supplies and uniforms
  • unendingly say prayers for protection for them
  • extending them moral, psychological and spiritual guidance to mold their values and sense of direction
  • giving them basic necessities such as food, medicine, toys etc.
  • others that you can imagine that can positively influence them 


          May we always think and pray for the welfare of these children and let us hope that soon or later, this world can be a place so worthy to live in for them.

HAPPY WEEKEND TO ALL MY LOVED ONES

          Today as I enjoy my weekend, I come to think of the many members of our clan, Jugan family, then I realized that members of our family have been scattered all over the world. Yet in spite of this reality that sometimes, loved ones are separated by miles and miles away from each other, the LOVE that binds us all will constantly strengthened the relationship against all odds.

          From the early beginning of the clan in Cebu City, generations have come and go and still, the foundations brougth along by the very first generations unceasingly serve as anchor to this family. Just like any ordinary family, at times the relationship among the members is challenged by misunderstandings, misconceptions, quarrels etc but similar to a hardened stone, the family hurdled them one by one. 

          Thanks to the wisdom of all the elders of the family who facilitated discussions, processings, meetings and other initiatives to patch out differences. On the other hand, the members also cherish together the wonderful and fun moments which also reflect the bond of true blood within them. Today's young generations will consistently have something to look up to from the elders. Thus, what is the joy and pain of every member becomes the same with the rest of the family.
