We had had another price hike in gasoline prices over the weekend. So what do we do then? Spend time at home, of course, and eat home-cooked meals and eat our free ice cream.
Free ice cream?
Yup, we got free tub of 3.4 liters of Nestle Cookies and Cream ice cream when we went to the Get Your Pop On Nestle Event last Thursday night. Woohoo!
Weekly Question #6 was inspired by the Flame of Friendship post:
Can you describe yourself as a friend? Or how do your friends describe you as a friend?
I can not really describe myself as a friend but I will try to do so without putting too much superlatives about me being a friend.
Now if you time to spare, here is a link to a written piece entitled On Friendship by Kahlil Gibran.
On Friendship
Kahlil Gibran
Your friend is your needs answered.
He is your field which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving.
And he is your board and your fireside.
For you come to him with your hunger, and you seek him for peace.
When your friend speaks his mind you fear not the “nay” in your own mind, nor do you withhold the “ay.”
And when he is silent your heart ceases not to listen to his heart;
For without words, in friendship, all thoughts, all desires, all expectations are born and shared, with joy that is unacclaimed.
When you part from your friend, you grieve not;
For that which you love most in him may be clearer in his absence, as the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain.
And let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.
For love that seeks aught but the disclosure of its own mystery is not love but a net cast forth: and only the unprofitable is caught.
And let your best be for your friend.
If he must know the ebb of your tide, let him know its flood also.
For what is your friend that you should seek him with hours to kill?
Seek him always with hours to live.
For it is his to fill your need, but not your emptiness.
And in the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures.
For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.
The Flame of Friendship.
A symbol of spirit of unity.
The burning icon of love.
Undying picture of hope.
The hot symbol of oneness.
The Flame of Friendship.
And now it’s your turn to flame yourself!
Meet new friends. Discover friendship. Make bonds.

Thank you everyone 
Not really a boxing fan, nor a Manny Pacquaio fan but I think this is worth writing a short blog post about.
Yes, Manny “Pacman” Pacquaio won the ninth round by KO against the bigger David Diaz to take home the WBC Lightweight title .
Events like these are what we need during this time of distress and mourning, if only for a few moments of victorious pride. The positive result of the fight couldn’t have come at a better time than now.
