If it is any consolation, suffering is temporary, and the pain which you endure right now will be soothed. As we suffer, Jesus is with us. He will hold our hand through the pain.

COLUMN: Recah Trinidad, poet and sports journalist, truly one of a kind

'He cut such a figure in sports journalism that there were times when he appeared to be more popular than the athletes he profiled. In turn, these athletes, some of them unknown, became celebrities after a Recah Trinidad piece'

Here's Spin columnist Ding Marcelo's tribute to Recah Trinidad, who died on Sunday morning at the age of 83 🙏 #RIP

The root of people pleasing is not concern for others. It's concern for approval.

A fear of being disliked leads many people to put their image above their values.

A good reputation is not about being adored by all. It’s about earning the respect of those who matter most.

How to Deal with Passive Aggressive Attacks

A Thread to Make Rude People Regret Disrespecting You (without being aggressive)

[Leila de Lima @manayleila]

Since Bamban mayor "Alice Guo" is not the real Alice Leal Guo but a 2003 Chinese child immigrant identified as Guo Hua Ping, and who merely stole the identity of the real Alice Leal Guo, the immediate legal remedy against her is a warrantless arrest by the Bureau of Immigration for serious violations of her visa conditions, and detention at the immigration deportation facilities pending her trial for the multiple criminal offenses she has committed. If convicted, it is only after service of her sentence should she be deported by the BI to China where she belongs.

The DOJ should just treat this, initially, as a simple immigration case where a legal warrantless arrest on Guo can be enforced for violation of immigration laws, instead of still waiting for the filing of criminal cases against her with the courts before a warrant of arrest can be served on her. It would also be then unnecessary to still file a quo warranto case against her if the purpose solely is to put her immediately under preventive detention and stop her from performing her spurious position as mayor of Bamban after the lapse of her current preventive suspension period.

The DOJ and other relevant agencies should take a proactive stance in dealing with Chinese criminal syndicates in our midst and energetically enforce our immigration laws against them in order to stop their illegal activities. Our national security is at stake. Sapat ang ating mga batas sa immigration para habulin ang mga Chinese criminal syndicates. Kailangan lamang itong gamitin at ipatupad nang tapat at masigasig.

I remember one who got so cross at me kasi send ako ng send ng memes. I told her, dude I just thought these are convo starters. Then reasons out na she doesn't want me sending them kasi random daw.

Ang rude.

She apologised but I wasn't ready to talk to her.

She unfriended me.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Sending memes, links, and videos to others isn't trivial. It signals that you're thinking of them and want them to share your joy.

It's known as pebbling, based on penguins gifting pebbles to potential partners.

Pebbling is an act of care. Every pebble is a bid for connection.

While we know how shitty our wages are here in the Philippines, the costs of living in Switzerland and in the Philippines are apples and oranges. Mahirap ihambing.

Nine years of working for CNN Philippines started and ended on the website and our social media pages to deliver content that is fair, accurate, and balanced.

Erased just like that.
