Christmas Cheers from ODC

Olaer Development Corporation, under the leadership of our very dynamic President, Mr. Henry Olaer-Montilla, made the christmas season happier and more meaningful for the wards of the St. Vincent Strambi Home for the Aged and St. Gemma's Orphanage through a gift giving activity held on December 27, 2011.

This is our way of saying thank you for all the blessings and good things we have received as members of the ODC.

Hoping that in our own simple way, we were able to make a difference in the lives of many!


Merry Christmas, everyone!

Tears in Heaven and perhaps Laughters

picture source: photobucket

Exactly nine days from now will be the 1st death anniversary of my dear brother. His untimely demise taught me basically a lot of things. I came to realize that time is indeed so fleeting and that we are just transients in this world. That is why we should always find time to spend quality moments with people close to our hearts for we just don't know how long this privilege will last.

I am sharing with you lyrics of my brother's favorite song. A song by Eric Clapton and it was sung by my brother's best friend before we laid him to his final rest. For several months, listening to this song would always mean tears streaming down my eyes as well but thanks God when I heard it this morning - the feeling of emptiness is no longer there.

I take it is a sign for us to move on and continue dwelling on the thought that my brother is already resting peacefully and now sharing laughters with our dear parents up, up there!

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would you feel the same
If I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong and carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven

Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven?
I'll find my way through night and day
'Cause I know I just can't stay here in heaven

Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees
Time can break your heart, have you begging please, begging please

Beyond the door there's peace I'm sure
And I know there'll be no more tears in heaven

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would you feel the same
If I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong and carry on
Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven

Goodbye, dear bro! Missing you a lot . . . .

Of Friends and Christmas

here's a repost from an unknown author:

It’s Good To Have Friends

It’s good to have friends
Friends who care,
Friends who you know
Will always be there
When you need them,
And never complain,
When you tell the same story
Again and again.

I’ve said it before
And I’ll say it again

Have a very Merry Christmas!



I truly appreciate presents you gave and I will forever be grateful for this! Much more, the thing that makes me feel very special is the thought that you gave your precious time in looking for something that I am passionate about . . . Again, thank you very much from the bottom of my heart!

Thanks for remembering . . . and may God bless you more!

Raising Tilapia in the Backyard

Raising tilapia makes moi and the kids busy nowadays. Our backyard mini pond has been done and it's now filled with water enough for a few big tilapia and lots of their fingerlings.
Raising this variety of fish is not that hard after all. We just have to see to it that they are well fed and the waters they thrive in has got the right temperature.

It is exciting to wake up every morning and rush to the pond to feed these creatures. Aside from gardening, this raising fish task would surely occupy lots of space in my future blog posts.

Wish us luck, friends! :-D
