Art Journals Parody

The question now is my ability to battle my own self. The competition is not about others and have realized that my greatest  opponent is myself.

So besides all other purposes, sometimes, well, most of the time actually is that my visual manuscripts often echo these fights...or struggle.

   Have I done enough to be really be accepted within the circle? Following mandate, rules, and accepted human facts isn't much of my forte in terms of art. I am too lazy to go linear.

   It should have been more financially liberating if I obey the systems. Only if I painted more instead of unleashing my thoughts and feelings. 

   But my visual manuscripts are life force--a support system that enables me to reflect and breath within. A rest from weariness. Maybe you may not understand but these so called waste of energies are my treasure.

   I have very rare individual piece...which is by the way may be subjected to change too. So those who own my work, they are rare treasure indeed and count yourself lucky. 

   Here I am dictated by choices...I'm still fortunate because most people doesn't have much of the choice.

   I am once again running away from the circle of which I am already in. I can not caste myself in a system...or sets of dimension. I am free...

   

   There is always something good, worthwhile, and beautiful to look forward to in whatever situation.

Speaking of Trees and Foolishness

At this very moment Typhoon Pablo had just hit the southern part of The Philippine Archipelago. We are praying we don't get repeat fury like that of Sendong which devastated exactly last year. 

   Speaking of typhoon, there is always that fear of flooding especially around rivers and coastal areas. 

   For instance Manila bay. During Marcos era, our former first lady Imelda Marcos reclaimed large part of the bay area, where the famous Cultural Center of the Philippines now stands. The problem was that our urban planners, underestimated the power of the seas and just rely on breakwaters to stop giant waves from reaching shorelines. As we have seen those preventive measures were not enough...

   So, why not reclaim more of the seas, since we've extended human settlement, we should replace the lost shorelines. I think it would be helpful to plant, at least kilometer long mangrove forest around that area. It would be more beneficial to the well being of marine creatures, and at the same time deter flooding and even tsunami. It can also be added attraction to our beautiful sunset by the bay. 

   We can duplicate the same  idea around Pasig Rivers or other flood prone areas. Hmm that was so easy to say...a lot of Political Will would be needed to actually do it. So who had Genuine concerns for mankind?

So What Tree Do You Have?

   And again, speaking of truth or genuine concerns. I am compel to speak that truth again...the truth that the Holy Bible forbids erecting Christmas Tree. We can read that in Jeremiah 10. 

Hear what the Lord says to you, people of Israel. This is what the Lord says:“Do not learn the ways of the nations or be terrified by signs in the heavens, though the nations are terrified by them.For the practices of the peoples are worthless; they cut a tree out of the forest, and a craftsman shapes it with his chisel.They adorn it with silver and gold; they fasten it with hammer and nails so it will not totter. Like a scarecrow in a cucumber field, their idols cannot speak;they must be carried because they cannot walk.Do not fear them; they can do no harm nor can they do any good.” (Jeremiah 10:1-5)

   I have discussed this Satanic practice before many times in this Blog and here I am again speaking even if it seems of no effect to everyone. The Lord knows the heart of people who truly respect His commandment...they are willing to listen and obey. 

   But generally people, in the baton of the False Church, teaching its followers to observe Satanism, like Christmas Nativity which is actually just a morph Mithraic practice from Pagan Rome. It was very clear in the Bible that everything about Christmas is a Big Lie. Christmas celebration is purely "SUN worship" or Saturnalia (Dec. 25). 

   Just a little common sense is needed, you don't have to be a Bible scholar to realized that everything about Christmas celebration is a Big Lie. Is Jesus Christ the reason of the season? NO! It's that guys in devil Red dress, who is in corrupt form of name Santa...just jumble his name and you will know who he is. In fact, the driving force why Christmas celebration survive is "Commercialism". Materialism, we know from Jesus Christ own word that he who loves the world is an enemy of God. 

"The first decorating of an evergreen tree began with the heathen Greeks and their worship of their god Adonia, who allegedly was brought back to life by the serpent Aessulapius after having been slain." Read more: http://www.religioustolerance.org/xmas_tree.htm

    Even Carols, Laterns, gift giving, snowman, elves,...ooops it will be a long discussion again. Let me talk of other matters....

   Okay, you have the right to Celebrate, obey your own hearts BUT as for me and my house, I rather obey God than men. 

   Read on thru the line of Not Afraid by Rapper EMINEM, he is from the inside of the Elite Satanic group stationed in Showbiz world. In this song, he is telling us a message...he is now breaking away from the hands of this real evil men...here how it goes:

You can try and read my lyrics off of this paper before I lay ‘em
But you won’t take the sting out these words before I say ‘em
Cause ain’t no way I’mma let you stop me from causing mayhem
When I say I’mma do something I do it, I don’t give a damn
What you think, I’m doing this for me, so fuck the world
Feed it beans, it’s gassed up, if it thinks it’s stopping me
I’mma be what I set out to be, without a doubt, undoubtedly
And all those who look down on me I’m tearing down your balcony
No if ands or buts don’t try to ask him why or how can he
From Infinite down to the last Relapse album he’s still shitting
Whether he’s on salary, paid hourly
Until he bows out or he shits his bowels out of him
Whichever comes first, for better or worse
He’s married to the game, like a “fuck you” for Christmas
His gift is a curse, forget the earth he’s got the urge
To pull his dick from the dirt and fuck the whole universe

   Only the blinds are acquitted if they fall to the pit. 

   Plant real trees instead...and help stop flooding.

Bureau of Traffic Management Office (Binan City) commissioned me to work for their office  Halloween presentation and the Theme is "Alice in Wonderland"...I'm on my third day now with a deadline to finish it this Friday, October 26...

   Hectic days ahead....

  Here are some photo, I've taken so far using only webcam so it's not that clear...with my daughter as my assistant:

 

  

Sunshine After the Rain

    

   
Only a Filipino can really smile in the middle of misfortune. We laugh when we're happy, we laugh when we're sad. We smile in our mistakes. We smile when we say sorry. It doesn't mean that we are not sincerely saying sorry...we just smile in everything we do. Like for instance when we accidentally bump someone while walking; we would automatically smile...and if you don't return a smile, the other person might think you are still mad. Okay! It's an accident...and we smiles even in accident. 

   An employee would even smile while he is being reprimanded by his boss...other nationality might think this action is a sign of disrespect but actually it's the other way around. Smiling on this situation is a sign of humility. We wont look in the eyes to show we are not fighting back. To look in your boss straight in the eyes could mean that you are threatening a challenge especially when you are being discipline. We as a race maybe puzzling sometimes but this craziness saves most of us in hardships. 



THE PEOPLE OF SMILES
  Once again we saw this Filipino resilience during these past days in the midst of storm surges. I saw people smiling back at the camera even under distress...even while the flood rises and they are trapped on roof tops. 

   A Filipino would even smile while crying...OH No! She's not mentally ill. She's perfectly normal...we just care so much to those that sympathized with us...so we smile for them. We always think of another person's feeling so we smile even if we are on the brink of danger. We send positive energy when we smile. Smiling protect us from pain...we pull strength in our hearts when we smile.

  Toughness in the midst of hardships is a common trait for us...and the Bayanihan Spirit (People Power) emerges again in the midst of chaos.  

   At this very moment while I sit here in front of my computer, I illuminate images on my head.  Typhoon Gener brings the worst and best in us. Nameless heroes appeared in the strangest situation. 

   I was touched when a man said something like this: "I am helping the rescue here because I am too far away to save my family...I am hoping that someone would help them right now too. So I am here to help." Isn't it the very same words that Jesus commanded us "to do unto others"?

   Now with a smile on my lips, I pray that my countrymen would pass yet another test of faith. These calamities are just passing but their smiling faces will remain forever in our hearts. 

This Time I know It's Real (Music Video)

closing the door,how i thought i was sure
what i wanted in my life
cutting the ties that bound both of our lives
just too blind to realize
i was chasing a fantasy
in hurting the one who'd never hurt me

CHORUS
this time i know its real
god only knows ive been so lonely without you
give me the chance to feel
please take me back,cant go on living without your love

day after day
i try to think of a way to let you know i was wrong
thinking maybe you'll say
things will work out ok just come back
where you belong
yes im willing to swallow my pride
coz baby how im hurting inside

repeat chorus

too long of the road
ive been down
ive been searching for one ive already found

repeat chorus

As Times Goes By...

Life isn't smooth sailing...you'll meet pirates along the way. 

   How's everyone these past days? It seems the change of season had also changed my mood. Been drifting to less stressful existence, Idyllic ...and it seems the breeze during late afternoon are reverberating a calming effect on me. Was it only me? I heard the chirping of birds lately despite the noises. The more tangible trickle of rain as it splattered on the ground. Maybe because I focused...not allowing myself to be bothered by vanity. 

   I can't really put the right words to express what I am feeling these past days. The Holy Spirit is probably teaching the lessons of calmness...the value of each moment. 

   So how does it feel to live in eternity??

  I took my son's bike and drove around the neighborhood yesterday...something I haven't done for quite a long time. I promised myself to do this more often. Why I haven't done it more often?

   Today...I open my sketch pad and browse...it made me feel much better. Browse all the TV channel and found nothing...looked at the sky...there's a promise of rain...it will be a strong one. 


   Prepared the materials I will use for Tuesday...A face painting for a children's party. Another show on July 4....and speaking of July, I will be a year older on the 10th. And on the same day my sister (Gina) and her family will fly to Canada. I will sure miss her...well, I already miss her now. She's the only sister I have. I mean aside from my other half-sisters; she's the only real sister I had. 
    We don't see each other that much anyway even if she lives in nearby town...but now it's a different thing knowing we're ocean apart. I'm also going to miss her kids. 


   Dolphy, the comedy king is in terminal health. Everyone is clamoring that he be declared a National Artist as soon as possible while he still can enjoy the recognition. How old is he anyway? 80plus? He deserve to be awarded the summit any artist dream of...He is indeed a treasure and the prize should have been given a long time ago. Thanks for making a whole generations of Filipino laugh at his funny antics. 


   WBO said Manny Pacquiao did win over Bradley but the belt stays where it is. How was that?! 
    

The biggest disappointment in the Boxing history.

If you were Bradley would you still accept the belt? Have you not taken anything you don't deserved?


There were some serious accusations of a "fix" during the aftermath of Pacquiao vs. Bradley fight that sports enthusiast and boxing federation officials must not easily dismiss and should focus to resolve as soon as possible.

   What are the kind of negative messages this event is sending to its millions of followers? What kind of morale it would give to our athletes when these kind of "distrust" is happening in a professional boxing arena?

   For me, even if Pacquiao did not knocked down Bradley, it is still one of Pacman's greatest fight. The split decision in favor of Bradley is the biggest disappointment in the Boxing history. 

   Within minutes after the fight the cyberspace are instantly filled with negative remarks against the decision both from fans and experts. There was no euphoric reactions...the public had been robbed.

   Just look at this scenario, it had been claimed that as long as Bradley stay up until the 12th rounds, he is given the guarantee of the belt. What is that suppose to mean? That it is all a money making conspiracy...

   A rematch will definitely draw-in more crowd in Las Vegas come next November, as speculated, if ever there is a rematch. And it is almost guaranteed. 

   Sadly, if there is indeed a "fix" this is a big blow into the institution of sports in general. R.I.P. Boxing was already streaming on twitter by the thousands. They don't really care about sports, it seems to say, all they cared about is money.

   The following are just few of the comment from boxing aficionados and sports analyst:

The bottom line is that if you're an honest man, if you're a competent person that knows what he's watching, Pacquiao won that fight. Only one man won that fight. And he doesn't get the decision.

It's an injustice to the sport, an injustice to the fighters, an injustice to the fan base and it's one of the fallacies…one of the problems with the sport of boxing right now that the wrong guy wins sometimes.
- ESPN boxing analyst Teddy Atlas, on SportsCenter

 I didn't see a single scorecard during the fight that it in Bradley's favor. Not one. And this is the Internet, where anyone with a computer has their own scorecard and a medium with which to vomit it out. -- Adam Hirshfield, Bleacher Report

Bradley should have given the belt and announce victory to pacquiao right after the decision. -- Oscar Dela Hoya

"I had the fight 11 rounds to one in favor of Pacquiao," ESPN boxing expert Dan Rafael said onSportsCenter. "Maybe you can make it 10 to 2 or I'll even give you 9 to 3….Harold Lederman on HBO had it 11 to 1." 

Solar Eclipse, Same Sex, Lady Gaga, Wedding and More

Our photo and video coverage yesterday was soaked in a thunderous rain.  Summer is over so soon? We shoot the wedding of Ian and Benj, two lively and sweet Christians. It was held in Silang, Cavite...the concept was all Native Filipino complete with a Carabao and sled. The garden wedding was a bit ruined by the rain showers but anyway, their spirits are still high and affectionate. I handle the still shots and the long absence on services like this make my creative mind rusted on this area. Need some reviewer....

   A rare solar eclipse was seen this morning...It is an annular eclipse which mean that we can still see parts of the sun. A solar eclipse created a "ring of fire" from Asia to the western United States. Visible from parts of China early on Monday before moving westwards across Taiwan and Japan, continuing across the Pacific on a 13,600km arc ending in Texas late on Sunday. Travelling on a diagonal path, the eclipse crossed parts of Oregon, Nevada, Utah, Arizona and New Mexico before disappearing in Texas with the sunset. 

   Four more eclipse is expected to occur this year...the next two will appear in the sky first week of June. (More on this HERE ) see video at the bottom of this blog.

   Protesters on Lady Gaga's concert...

   The protests in the Philippines are the latest in the problematic Asian tour for Lady Gaga. Her provocative lyrics and risqué costumes have prompted conservative Muslims in Indonesia to call for the cancellation of her upcoming concert in Jakarta. (SOURCE)

    My personal opinion: Churches have their right to defend their faith. Any person who cling to the demon must be cast-off. Lady Gaga's song "Judas" clearly states that rebellion against Christianity. She also, promotes Gay rights...

The eye-of-Horus sign by Lady Gaga

   Did you notice the world hostility against the word of God? Just look how people reacted when Manny Pacquiao share his views against gay marriage. The controversial(?)  Bible verse which was not anyway quoted by Manny is Leviticus 20:13...

King James Version (KJV)

¹³ If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

   Pacman should have not buckle and defend the Word of God. The verse does not say to kill all gays or lesbians (a curse that happens because of idol worship, Read Romans chapter 1) but for those who practice same sex marriages or a person who have intercourse with same sex. Although we do not practice any more death sentence to extreme sins listed in The Torah, it is still a sin and an abomination to both man and God, it will be measured by God in the end anyway. 

   What would people do next? Marriage with his or her pets? I am sure animal activist will be rallying for these...pros or cons?

And if a man lie with a beast, he shall surely be put to death: and ye shall slay the beast. -- Leviticus 20:15

   Chief Justice Renato Corona will finally testify tomorrow on Senate court on cases filed against him. Why Iglesia ni Cristo is dragged to this case? Ever wonder? The power of false churches, that is obvious...and I should say, our Politicians are within the systems of this world. 

   China is already exhibiting prejudice against our economy...first, they cut the number of flights going to the Philippines, this time they are holding 500 vans of fruits for quarantine and some 200 vans will be shifted back. 

The Almighty's Art Collections

Above is a cloud formation known as Punch Hole Clouds. They appear as a circular or oval holes in a layer of super cooled clouds; sometimes they assume a form of a perfect circle and persist for quite a long time, drifting together with the cloud layer. One explanation seems to blame the air traffic (the jet contrail intersections) combined with a thermal inversion (a circular motion of a rising warm air). 

Now next image is the summit of Mount Sinai where God wrote the Ten Commandment. You can still see the traces that it was burned with fire a scene depicted on the Book of Exodus. 

 If you don't believe there is a supreme intelligent designer behind all things...the following images I have chosen will make you re-think again. And if you believed there is a GOD...then marvel again to the Almighty's artistry! 

A Sylph Encounter

SYLPH in simplest definition is what you called “Bizarre Cloud Formation”. Around 3 years ago when I first learned of this word and dismiss the idea attached into it and maybe, like most of you, will consider it as a natural phenomenon. Anyway, if I get my science correctly as Physic taught us that cloud being a vapor or gas; is lighter than air. Also by being a gas particle it is no wonder that Cloud is expected to move independently and very unstable. Therefore it won’t be hard to accept that this so-called Sylph is nothing but just pure accidental shapes and nothing else.

   But when I remember a past encounter with this peculiar cloud formation many years ago I have to shift my thought and take a more in depth study on this matter.

   Before I tell you that particular encounter with a Sylph, allow me to define it according to the Spiritual and extra-terrestrial connection of the term. Sylphs according to them are Angelic host or Heavenly beings taking the cloud form to act as Sentinel, give warnings, or directly influence human activities. While others believe, sylph is a creature in itself and not just an angelic camouflage.  Interestingly, sylphs tend to appear more pronounce before, during, and after a calamity like super typhoon, earth quake, volcanic eruptions, etc…

EYE TO EYE WITH AN ANGEL

   Now here is my strange encounter with a sylph why I believe it is not just an accidental cloud formation or random activity of gaseous particles. This happen more than ten years ago and yet every detail of that encounter is still very clear to me as if it happened only yesterday. After all, it was so extra ordinary to be easily dismissed on my head.

   I was employed then at Tax Studies and Research Center, and the nature of my job allows me to travel the whole Philippine archipelago and it was during one of those trips somewhere to the south. I remember that was a bright sunny afternoon and I could see perfectly from the airplane window the beautiful cotton like clouds. I always admire the wonders of clouds and sometimes imagine myself swimming on its foamy ocean of smoke.

   Then suddenly to my surprise, while at that moment of total immersion at the thick grayish White Mountain of cloud in the horizon, I was mesmerized when the cloud parted, and saw a strange cloud formation. There she is a lady with long curly hair seated in lotus fashion. It was so detailed I could see all the curves and outline of a naked lady…holding to her side a long stick or maybe a spear like a sentinel.

   Well, I’ve seen other more pronounce cloud formation than this but I’ve felt something different on this one. I look inside the airplane cabin if others are seeing the image I’m seeing. I’m not sure, if someone is paying attention too. Well, I still have no idea or have heard anything about Sylph during this time so I just consider this as an accidental play of nature, but something happen that made me a believer…

   When the plane headed to the direction of the Sentinel, or lady with long hair seated lotus fashion my heart leaps because I’ll be seeing it closer. Maybe the pilot and cockpit crew could see the angel too. Approaching the image I was even more amaze that the facial expression was even more detail, she look calm…yet alert. Then as the plane move closer that we are now directly above the mountain of cloud where the Sylph seated, that she is now there to my left…as if all of the sudden she realized that she is being watch, she turn her head and look at me…I will not forget that look as if she was surprised that I saw her. It sends shiver on my spine, even now while telling you this, I still felt the same shiver…I can’t bare that stare, WE ARE EYE TO EYE. I have to turn to the cabin…everything seems to be normal…the passengers and the stewardess are acting normal…

   The face, even if it was just a cloud formation, I could see all the fine detail and that even her eyes glow and eerie. Instantly I had a goose bump all over me and the imaginary hair at the back of my head all raises. The movement of her head was slow as if she was not expecting that I saw her…that was just seconds but it still lingers on my head…Now after a few second, the position angle of my chair shifted and that she disappeared to my sight…when the plane move further, I was able to saw her again…she now quickly join the mountain of gray and white clouds…and in seconds she hide herself.

   That’s the strangest encounter I had with a Cloud formations. Now that I’ve known what are Sylphs…the more that I became afraid…shaken at the mere thought of it…that I had an eye to eye encounter with heavenly creature.

   Was the Angelic Sentinel surprise that I saw her? I mean, obviously, there are other passengers watching the amazing detail of this cloud formation but it seems she was not expecting a spiritually aware eye was inside the airplane. I don’t know, but that stare seems to be directed only to me.

   People around the world had been seeing cloud formation more strangely than what I just described and previous during my other flights I also saw other more bizarre detail even seeing a whole panorama of action figures as if depicting a battle scene, yet that one instance captivates me until now.

   Years later, I’ve discover them to be what they call now as Sylph…heavenly beings. During that time I consider it just a coincidence of gaseous particles. But when I analyze the chances of a vapor forming images of creatures like humans, animals, and even things, I can not comprehend how natural phenomenon would do such a trick. Was this the hand of God doing some artistic expressions? Or these are messages that we need to decipher…since this Sylph tend to be more pronounce and obviously want to catch our attention during extreme weather conditions.

   In Marikina City, after the devastating typhoon Ondoy, there was a viral video that shows an angry face of a man in the sky right after the strong surge. People believe it was nature trying to say something about how we had abused our environment. At the 9/11 incident, the thick cloud from the burning tower transform into a laughing devil face…it even became headline of a leading News Paper. Both Japan and Indian Ocean Tsunami aftermath have reported stories too from various eyewitnesses of seeing strange cloud formation before it actually happened. So what are sylphs?

   That I will be discussing more on future blog…plus about Chemtrail, which are man-made unusual cloud formations. These two cloud formations sometimes do battle or squirms against each other which were not recognized by the uninitiated eyes. An increase of this activity had been seen in recent years that some expert on this subject believed directly related to Global Warming. 

Evidence and Artifacts of Alien?

Let me clarify to you that I have a different concept about Alien or UFO - Unidentified Flying Object. The classification or definition of terms is very crucial because this same evidence have the tendency to be used against a creator God...or the Aliens themselves pretend to be gods. There is a premise that the Anti-Christ will appear as an Alien...however, this data I have not yet confirmed so we will not dabble on that issue here for now. We will just re-define aliens on this blog, how it should be on Biblical account.

   Aliens to me are those described in the Bible. Yes, they are biblical. The Bible simply calls them principalities from the heavenly realms, or in simple terms cherubs or angels. 

   Just as there are diversity of life on earth, it is obvious that the vastness of the universe and that of life in heaven also had variety of beings. The secular world may call them Aliens but to the Biblical terms they are Heavenly Host, Angels, Archangels, Cherubs...etc. They are all Spiritual Beings...meaning they reside on the spiritual plane. Extra-terrestrials or ET are in Bible terms simply called SPIRITS. 

   And that some of these Entities became Demons. 

  It quite interesting also to note here that ancient writings from prophets or by a man of God, who had spend  a great amount of time writing in detail regarding Angels and demons, were NOT INCLUDED in our modern Bible. Was it just coincidence or intentional? 

   Does "Fallen Angels" themselves hinder the inclusions of this writings or gospels? For example the book of Enoch. Enoch had detailed account of Lucifer's expulsion from heaven...it also prophesied the coming judgment to the fallen angel who had conspired with Satan. In fact the Book of Enoch was even quoted by New Testament writer like Paul and Jude, so why the Canon considered it as uninspired writings? The testament of Levi also hinted this judgment of fallen angels and Testament of Judah talking about how he conquered giants...

   There's seem to be a hidden agenda behind this intentional hiding of this fact. Why archaeologist are showing as only fossils of dinosaurs and not that of giant men? By the way, the Book of Enoch was specifically written for our generation, so why an important article should be hidden from believers in Christ?

   The video you are about to watch is intriguing. It will change your concept now about ancient men as uncivilized, unlearned, and even barbaric. This will show a system, or technology, or one may call artistry that is far advance than what we know. Perhaps, this is the meaning when King Solomon said "There is nothing new on earth and in heaven anymore..." All had been known already...the future and the past are basically the same. The intelligence and technology before the flood were basically the same. Jesus revealed he will return very similar to the condition  of Noah's time...

Matthew 24:37-39 ...'But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.'
