Four words yet the most powerful .

A feeling used as a tool.
In giving kinds of emotions .
That feels like a field of dandelions .

 PURE LOVE

In love's embrace, refrain from harm,

A sanctuary where trust takes form.
Let deeds of kindness be your guide,
For love blooms when hearts coincide.

Grant freedom, let desires soar,

A symphony of devotion to adore.
Faithful service, an unwavering bond,
In the garden of love, tenderly respond.

Nurture a love, sincere and true,

A tapestry woven with shades of you.
Support his dreams, let them ascend,
In the vast expanse where affections blend.

Release control, let happiness thrive,

In the dance of joy, let love arrive.
Wish for his welfare, a heartfelt prayer,
Facing challenges, together, dare and share.

 HIDDEN LOVE

He's the light in my darkness.

His smile brings me happiness.
Hiding my feelings useless
I don't know, should I confess?

 YOU CAUGHT MY EYE

I rose up and look around.

There is a man in the crowd.
I found myself fall beyond .

 TO LOVE IS TO RISE

What if to love is to rise rather than fall?

What if falling in love isn't like falling into the
the depths, but rather like rising to new
dimensions?
What if falling in love means seeing the world in a
new light?
The same one, just more stunning.

 LOVE ONE ANOTHER
By Gwyneth Naval

Love, a simple yet powerful emotion, has the

extraordinary ability to transform lives and foster unity
among people. The timeless message of "love one another"
resonates across cultures and generations, urging individuals
to embrace kindness, compassion, and understanding.

At its core, loving one another involves treating

others with respect and empathy. Simple acts of kindness,
such as a friendly smile or a helping hand, can create ripple
effects, spreading warmth and positivity. By extending love
to those around us, we contribute to the creation of a more
harmonious and compassionate community.

 PIECES

I wasn't afraid about losing you.

I was afraid of losing myself in each piece I gave
you.
And I've found lots of more since you left.

- Russel

 YOU’RE “THAT”

You will always be...

that calming feeling when the wind is dancing.
that constancy in all my uncertainties.
that matter in my every prayer.

In shadows, courage blooms,

Fierce heart dispels the gloom.

 YOU DID GREAT

If today consists only of getting out of bed, let it be enough.

If you thought the world was asking for too much and there
wasn't enough to offer, let it be enough.

If you did something but isn't satisfied, let it be enough.

Don't be hard on yourself, you did well and it's enough.

 BETTER DAYS AHEAD
By Jasper Ace

You haven't wasted time when things don't work out.

Yes, time has passed, and you can't get it back, but now,
everything that happened taught you: you are worth so much
more than that. You have started to see that even though letting
go was one of the hardest things you have ever had to do, now,
you can focus on the path before you. Now, you can now take
deep breaths knowing that the mere fact that you're here
means your story isn't over yet.

Today may look different from what you planned a

year ago, and this is also true: through every change, now you
know, the morning sun still shines. The moon still illuminates
the evening sky. And every day, you are starting to see love is
still boundless and so much greater than you imagined it to be.
You've had to say goodbye to so many things, and yet, here
you are, still finding peace. Still pursuing growth and wisdom,
as you become who you were meant to be.

 DOTS OF LIFE
By Allyssa Lunes

Your life is the sum of everything. Experiences flow

into one another, so even though it may seem chaotic and
scattered now, you will eventually be able to make
connections between all the different aspects of your life.

Have faith that everything in this life unfolds for your

best pleasure. If you stay true to your faith, you will
experience the freedom you are looking for.

22
 NEW BEGINNINGS

Morning’s embrace, the sun and sky will meet.

Sunrise paints hope that brings a brand-new day.
Nature’s hums, a melody that’s so sweet.
Which reminds us to always pave the day.

New beginnings, echoes with a good sound.

Whispers of change carried by the wind's sound.
Every doubt, uncertainty prevailes.
A lot of questions hang, as time sails.

In the journey of life where the doubts play.

Sometimes it is okay to lose your way.
Everyone can make mistakes every day.
Embrace the errors, let it finds it way.

Sunlight spills, chasing shadows far away.

Sunrise is a way to start a new day.

- Gwyneth

23
 BELIEVE IN YOURSELF

Standing in the dark room hoping someday I will bloom.

No one can see the future but there's a light that is so pure.

If we are dreaming there is a joy in living.

Always keep trying do not give up without learning.

- Jancyn

 UNTOLD STORY
By Denise Luna

Look to your left, then to your right. What do you see?

Most of you see only strangers, right? But try to look deeper;
see with innocence; look with understanding. The people you
see with your own eyes have thousands of stories to share.
These people experienced many hardships and challenges
during their lives. But here they are, taking a risk and a leap
of faith, and continually choosing to look at challenges as
opportunities to grow and discover their true purpose.

Remember that everyone around us is fighting their

own battles, but they also need our support as well. We must
always learn to help and learn from each other's situations.
Challenges are not problems; they are opportunities for us to
fight and win. Because, at the end of the day, failures are not
indicators of defeat; they are indicators of achievement. We
must win as one, and you must believe.

25
 NEVER ALONE
By Allyssa Lunes

We occasionally need to remind ourselves that we are

never alone. Absolutely not. We are in constant
communication with the world we live in. Even when we feel
isolated, we are always THERE for ourselves.

We are our own companions leaving no room for

physical abandonment and instead endless space for DEEPER
understanding. So how could we ever say that we are lonely?
When we sit with ourselves in solitude or across earthly
matters, we are REMINDED that we never really are.

We are ALWAYS THERE for ourselves, even in times

when we feel alone. There is no room for physical
abandonment because we are our own companions; instead,
there is limitless room for DEEPER understanding. Thus, how
could we ever claim to be alone? We are reminded that we are
never truly who we think we are.

26
 EMBRACING TOMORROW

Though I'm still proud of myself,

For trying my very best,
I often feel invisible,
With my efforts unaddressed.

I'll admit it's disheartening,

When no one seems to care,
But my determination remains,
Through each and every snare.

I'll lift my head up high,

For I know what I have done,
And though they may not see it now,
In the end, I'm the one who won.

For I have the satisfaction,

Of knowing I did my part,
And happiness within myself,
Is where I find my heart.

So, I'll keep on persevering,

And striving every day,

27
For even if the world ignores me,
My pride won't fade away.

- Jan Christian

 WITHOUT HOPE
By Paul Michael

Hope plays a big role in our lives. Without hope, you

cannot survive even a minute. We live life only for this hope.
We set alarm clocks to wake up early in the morning, hoping
that there will be a tomorrow and we will rise. The next
morning, a man goes to work to earn money, fulfill all his
needs and desires, and make his family happy. Hope really
gives us a reason to act. It acts as a motivation for us.
A student who has just failed his entrance exams
decided to kill himself but stopped to plan simply because he
has hope of passing away next year. Hope is the first thing
that comes to mind when we start something. I hope you
finish it and succeed.
The major hope in this world is that it is God
almighty who created this entire universe. In trouble, people
remember him and trust him; he cannot harm them, and one
day he will do us good or take care of all our problems.
Without hope, we cannot survive, so hope is very important
in human life.

PERSEVERANCE

 A JOURNEY THROUGH PERSEVERANCE

Through storm's fierce embrace,

Resilience blooms with grace,

 HOW WE SUCCEED IN LIFE
By Gwyneth Naval

Overcoming obstacles and succeeding in life require

perseverance. It's a trait that encourages people to keep going
after challenges and disappointments. Whether addressing
career obstacles or personal objectives, those with
perseverance show resilience and determination.

Perseverance's contribution to personal development

is one noteworthy feature. Persevering in the face of difficulty
helps people not just build a strong work ethic but also a
mindset that sees setbacks as chances for growth. They can
overcome obstacles with a good attitude and turn setbacks into
opportunities for growth because to this mentality shift.

 LIVING IN A PARALLEL UNIVERSE
By Denise Luna

In this world, everyone stops aging at 27, though they

are designed to live one more year. Though people can
increase their lifespan by earning or stealing time, the story
follows Jeremy Smith, a young man who works to survive
while desperately trying to save enough time to provide a
better future for his family.
Jeremy left work one day after a long, busy day. He
went to get a cheap drink, but he had no idea he'd run into a
wealthy man named Fred Stockinger. He is bored with his life,
despite having a century to enjoy it.
Jeremy told Fred that he had a great privilege to live,
so why be miserable. Not long after, armed men broke into the
cafe, looking for Fred. Recognizing that Jeremy already
knows what those people's intentions are, he encourages Fred
to leave the café and go somewhere else. They arrived at an
abandoned building, and Jeremy is concerned about their
condition, but Fred appears unfazed.
While those armed men were still searching for them,
they decided to rest and spend the night. Fred, on the other
hand, did not change his mind despite what Jeremy was trying
to convince him of. He still wants to give up his life because

33
he believes he had enough time to experience everything, and
he knows that a man like Jeremy deserves it. He held Jeremy's
hand and transferred his time to him while he went to sleep
before the night ended. Fred let enough time for himself to
make it to the bridge, watch till dawn and wait for the time of
his life to end. Jeremy gains a significant amount of time that
he can now use to provide a better future for his family. He is
still in shock because he knows that there are advantages and
problems he might encounter because of this amount of time.
As a man who always thinks for the sake of everyone,
he plans to make a difference and challenge the oppressive
system he lives in. In a bank of time where only wealthy
people have access, he went there to transfer time. He went
out and announced to everyone that they could get some free
time and enjoy it with their loved ones. In this world where
time determines one's worth, be like Jeremy, who values
humanity and equality.

 MOTHER'S PERSEVERANCE
By Eirl Joshua

One day, there was a mother and son. The mother

went to work in another country to help his family out of
poverty, while the son is still only a student. The day came
when the son's exam was suddenly moved to a closer date,
but his mother's salary from work was the next week on the
day of the exam, and because of this, her son would not be
able to pay tuition. This was not said by his mother, and the
mother made a way to have immediate money for this
because of the mother's ability to make bread or cake. This
was the way she made money for her child's tuition.
One day the son suddenly found out about what his
mother had done, and he immediately thanked her for the
hard work and diligence shown by his mother just so that the
son could take an exam. Because of this, the mother burst
into tears because of what her son said. When the day of the
exam came, the child's tuition was immediately paid, and the
son was able to take the exam.

 PADAYON

I always asked myself "will I be successful one day?"

Will I able to fulfill my dreams and desires?
Will I achieve my goals?
Or will I at least make my parents proud of me?

I don't have specific dream in life.

But do I have to have a dream?
Or I am just scared to disappoint them.
Because I failed myself.

Attending school is draining ang tiring.

Observing my classmate confident in their aim.
Following their desire,
Is something I'm jealous of.

To those who slowly forgot their passion,

I'm hoping that every good thing
That died in you may live once again.
At the end, you and me will achieve something

 A PROMISE KEPT

Never let promises die.

To let it die is to lie.
It should be kept.
And not be broken.

 PROMISE
By Jancyn Cadano

Promise is not just a word that can be easily forgotten.

It is giving assurance to your person. If they genuinely care
about you, they do not break their promises just to hurt you.
Sometimes people tend to make a promise even though they
don't know how it works.

Keeping a promise is not that hard, if you are

responsible of what you are doing and you are ready to
commit, then you are trustworthy. Never make a promise to
someone if you are not sure yet. Be wise and think twice if
someone told you a promise do not expect too much because
you will only be dissapointed at the end.

The person should know how to keep his/her words. It

would be lovely if you promise to yourself something that you
want in the future. It will help you a lot to be motivated and
because you know how to keep a promise, I am pretty sure
that someday you're gonna make it.

41
FORGIVENESS

42
 FORGIVENESS IS LOVE

I'd take forgiveness over revenge any day.

In all shapes and sizes, to whomever and whatever I wish to
forgive.

Forgiveness entails more than simply forgetting what has

been done.
It's about surrendering, learning to accept what is, and
making the decision to move forward.

Forgiveness is not a defeated act.

Forgiveness is a sign of love.

- Ken

43
 LATELY

Lately, I have been hating myself less and less.

Lately, I have found myself longing for myself more and

more.

And this, I must admit, is also forgiveness.
