OOOOOOHhhhhhhhhh

Put away the pictures.

Put away the memories.

I put over and over

Through my tears

I've held them till I'm blind

They kept my hope alive

As if somehow that I'd keep you here

Once you believed in a love forever more?

How do you leave it in a drawer?

Now here it comes, the hardest part of all

Unchain my heart that's holding on

How do I start to live my life alone?

Guess I'm just learning,

Learning the art of letting go.

Try to say it's over

Say the word goodbye.

But each time it catches in my throat

Your still here in me

And I can't set you free

So I hold on to what I wanted most

Maybe someday we'll be friend's forever more

Wish I could open up that door

Now here it comes, the hardest part of all

Unchain my heart that's holding on

How do I start to live my life alone?

Guess I'm just learning,

Learning the art of letting go

Watching us fade

What can I do?

But try to make it through

the pain of one more day

Without you

Where do I start, to live my life alone?

I guess I'm learning, only learning,

Learning the art of letting go.

ooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

hhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

La Liga Filipina
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

The cover page of the constitution of La Liga Filipina

La Liga Filipina (English: The Philippine League) was a progressive organization created
by Dr. Jos Rizal in the Philippines in the house of Doroteo Ongjunco at Ilaya Street,
Tondo, Manila in 1892.

The organization derived from La Solidaridad and the Propaganda movement. The purpose
of La Liga Filipina is to build a new group sought to involve the people directly in the reform
movement.

The league was to be a sort of mutual aid and self-help society dispensing scholarship
funds and legal aid, loaning capital and setting up cooperatives, the league became at
threat to Spanish authorities that they arrested Rizal on July 6, 1892 on Dapitan.

During the exile of Rizal, The organization became inactive, through the efforts of Domingo
Franco and Andres Bonifacio, it was reorganized. The organization decided to declare its
support for La Solidaridad and the reforms it advocated, raise funds for the paper, and
defray the expenses of deputies advocating reforms for the country before the Spanish
Cortes. Eventually after some disarray in the leadership of the group, the Supreme Council
of the League dissolved the society.

The Liga membership split into two groups when it is about to be revealed: the
conservatives formed the Cuerpo de Compromisarios which pledged to continue
supporting the La Solidaridad while the radicals led by Bonifacio devoted themselves to a
new and secret society, the Katipunan.

Freemasonry is a fraternal organisation that traces its origins to the local fraternities of
stonemasons, which from the end of the fourteenth century regulated the qualifications of
stonemasons and their interaction with authorities and clients. Masons are members of the
organization. The degrees of freemasonry retain the three grades of medieval craft guilds,
those of Apprentice, Journeyman or fellow (now called Fellowcraft), and Master Mason.
These are the degrees offered by craft, or blue lodge Freemasonry. There are additional
degrees, which vary with locality and jurisdiction, and are now administered by different
bodies than the craft degrees.

The basic, local organisational unit of Freemasonry is the lodge. The lodges are usually
supervised and governed at the regional level (usually coterminous with either a state,
province, or national border) by a Grand Lodge or Grand Orient. There is no international,
world-wide Grand Lodge that supervises all of Freemasonry. Each Grand Lodge is
independent, and they do not necessarily recognise each other as being legitimate.

Secret Society internationally and hierarchical structure based on fraternity among its
members, which are grouped in lodges and make use of rites and iconic signs:
Masonry exerted great political influence in nineteenth-century Europe.
Synonym: Freemasonry.
