The Old farmer and His Son!!

An old farmer wrote to his son in prison.

"This year I wont be able to plant potatoes because I can't dig the ground. I know if you were here you would help me"

The son wrote back:

"Dad don't think of digging the ground because thats where I buried the guns"

But Police read the letter and the very next day, the whole field of the farm of his father was dug by police looking for guns but nothing was found.

The next day son wrote again:

"Now Dad, plant your potatoes, thats the best I can do from here"

The farmer and his son were poor. The son was a dreamer and went to the city. The son wanted to help his father but fell to temptation and became part of a mafia or syndicate. Eventually he was caught and put to jail. The police monitored all communications so that they can gather informations. The son got a letter from his father. The son felt guilty about the condition of his father and the farm. It was already planting time the son cooked up an idea of letting the police dig the entire farm by giving them a false information about the guns. It was a joke for the police but its a very big help to his father and to the farm.

Old Woman!

Someone has email me this sad story of an old woman:

His family went to the beach, as they arrive, he noticed an old woman sitting at the shore. Hours went by, its already midnight. The old woman still sitting there. He approach the said old woman "'Nay, sino po kasama ninyo?." Mga anak ko apo, pero pumunta lang daw sila sa trabaho, tapos balikan lang ako pag-uwi nila."He said " Maghahatinggabi na po Nay! sigurado po ba kayo na babalik pa sila?".

The old woman said;"Oo apo, hindi nila ako pababayaan malaki ang tiwala ko sa mga anak ko dahil sa akin sila nanggaling, saan man sila mapunta lukso ng dugo parin ang mananaig, ito nga't may sulat silang iniwan sa akin apo", His tears fell down as he read the letter, it says" Kung sino man ang makakakita sa matandang ito, pakidala niyo na lang po sa Home for the aged. Thanks po".

The old woman said; Don't cry apo, Huwag ka ng umiyak andyan naman ang Panginoon ako nama'y Kanyang gagabayan hindi naman Niya ako pababayaan. Tulungan mo na lang ako sa pagdarasal na nawa'y ang mga anak ko ay haplusin Niya at ng ako'y maalala.

Destiny's Called!

HRM Schools and Culinary classes are everywhere now a days.

Yesterday's waiter, dishwasher and kusinero. But today they are bigtime manager, bigtime chef and some of them they will become a succesful businessmen. Yesterday's vocation is today's career. Managing was something mother's simply exceled in, "Like on how to raised a child", something womens do.

When I was on my O.J.T. (on-the job trainee) at one of the Hotel here in General Santos City, I got an interview one of the on-call washer. And goes like this "He shared I really need this job even though (taga-hugas lang) but its worth it, I need cash in order to help my family. He laugh and continue washing the dishes. You know what if you'll know how to prepare food and accept the reality and have enthusiasm on it maybe one day you will become chef "He laugh again"...That would become your sugar and coffee, I believe that experience is the best teacher just believe and have faith in God trust Him all the way.
