Are YOU A Victim Of Circumstances?
I am! And HAVE been [many, many times throughout the sixty-four years + I've inhabited this planet]. Take this afternoon, for example ...
no, on second thoughts, I shall (with great difficulty, I might add!) desist from boring you to tears
with a graphic account of the "lurid" details. But it would be interesting to hear about others' tales of woe, arising from the occasion(s) when MISfortune smiled -or, more accurately, grimaced - upon them through no fault of their own [or anyone else].

Arthur,sometimes your up,sometimes your down,its life mate,I have been in both peaks and troughs on the sea of life,but when I am down I always know there are many worse off than myself
Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

Consider it as a spice of life. If life is too perfect, then the world woud be so dull and boring.
Besides, we should consider every bad circumstance as an opportunity to grow and learn
"10% of life is made up of what happens to you, 90% is decided by how you react"
"The way to love anything is to realize that it may be lost"

Great! That's their pastime too...not everybody likes doing that but I think most people do in Polomolok. The joy of finding something nice and suitable to wear is beyond comprehension. Hope you did have a nice time there. Cheers Originally Posted by Tawi2

When I was in the Phils, I suffered from a painful left shoulder (caused by the air-conditioning, I suspect) and my wife used to massage it [my shoulder, I mean :lol2:] with some sort of analgesic concoction obtained from a local pharmacy. Worked wonders, too!! Originally Posted by jimeve

Back in the UK, I'm still prone to the same trouble due, this time, to having the bedroom window open overnight in spite of our "wintry" June climate, and I'm having it rubbed with something called (would you believe?) 'Deep Freeze" ... available in two sizes of tube from Boots' Chemists.
Take care, Jim ... and remember it's just our age. Or, perhaps in YOUR case, it's all that floating about in space ...

We are ALL victims of circumstances.
When and where we were born, the choices we make when we don't know any better, the people we meet, the nutcase drivers, the random relationships that turn into something special.
We can only control so much - as for the rest....bahala na.

Thanks for the infor Tawi2, I've never been a fan of GMA, I hope the MI's and the MN's aren't going to do something stupid when she's there but am not worried about her as I am sure she'd be heavily guarded. I wonder what she's up to? Hmm she's never been the kind to wander off South Cotabato when I was there, maybe things have changed. Originally Posted by Tawi2

As for the Moranos I will have to ask my youngest brother if he knows about them, it's a fairly small town and everybody knows everybody.
