INSPIRED and LOVE

I was inspired by this woman, seeing her on a social site was love at first site. We were not strangers, back then, we where neighbours but it has been a very long time then for not seeing each other. I courted her, trying winning her love developing trust and confidence with each other. Every time we talk she always tell her secret stories sad ones and good ones, trusting so much was an advantage and a privilege.

Then the day come, I have to leave because of my work and she cried. I promised her that I will call her time to time to continue our special relationship. I told her to made it an open relationship, and  she was be honest to tell me everything. Then the time when other guys tried courting her. I asked her are the other guys much worthy than me, then she cried. She told me the problem, having financial problems, she got so sick due to stress that she was sent to the hospital. She telling me that She is wishing that I was there to comfort her in times of her trouble. When she was in the hospital, she couldn't trust anyone. I was silence. In that situation the other guy courting took the advantage of helping her. She repay the other guy for what was spent in the hospital.  I tried to speak with her on the phone and try to find a way to resolve her financial crisis until I return home where everything is settled.

By that time her work became hectic had to meet with me only in given opportunity. There was a time we meet up together with other folks, the buzz in the air was Marriage. She open her thoughts and she told us she wasn't ready for such commitment, she wanted more of her career. I was impress, by then the time came that I have to leave again for my work. I arrange a last meeting with her still on a shorted period of time due to her work. There we talked, I told her how much I love her, but she answered trying to stop me, I noticed something not right.  I ask her to be honest to our relationship, she wanted me to treat her as a sister of mine. A sibling, to love her as part of my family. A special bond relationship that may last forever until broken by betrayal. Only few close friend I treat like as my siblings. And I agreed, but still I want her to get out of her crisis so she could move on and further hoping to bring back my money or winning her love again in the end. It was a selfish thought but whats really over all is still I love her. I knew she's one-of-a-kind woman, surpasses all of her obstacles in life by her own. Until the day we meet. She also told me that she's accepting the other guy as her boyfriend to ease their tension. I was not jealous about it. Keeping an open mind, I was happy for her.

I keep a regular communication like a brother would do making sure she's fine. Then the time came something very bad happened. She got pregnant, it was a drinking party, she got drank and banged-up by his boyfriend, and things falling apart for her. Both of them unprepared unwanted to have a family because they still have other family commitment to consider also financially low to support. I wanted to scold at her that time, telling her how she betrayed me, how much she shuttered my feelings. but I knew confrontation over the satellite phone is expensive and unproductive. She's pregnant and making her sad, worried and down graded would affect the baby. What I did I gave my positive support giving her financial assistance and moral support to boost her confidence to surpass her pregnancy. But as the days roll-by things were getting complicated. Her pregnancy is very delicate and very fragile that she has to be bed ridden. Worst that she will have an early delivery because of her complications. She left for work, leave with out pay. Alone in the dormitory and sometime assisted the the relative of the boyfriend. Both of them are still in shocked to that day their live had change, neither my life  also. It give me thoughts of abandoning her and leaving both of them. But I can't, I still love her and an innocent child is involve. I believe that pregnancy is a blessing not a curse.

I'm asking for your prayers of support to this time of our uncertainty to enlighten our spirits to seek for forgiveness.


Thoughts to digest:

Marriage is just a piece of paper, it is the commitment of everlasting love that to be enforced by both couple.

If you love some one don't hurt them.

Love is . . . Being happy for the other person when they are happy, Being sad for the person when they are sad, Being together in good times, And being together in bad times.
LOVE IS THE SOURCE OF STRENGTH.

Love is . . . Being honest with yourself at all times, Being honest with the other person at all times, Telling, listening, respecting the truth, And never pretending.
LOVE IS THE SOURCE OF REALITY.

Love is . . . An understanding so complete that you feel as if you are a part of the other person, Accepting the other person just the way they are, And not trying to change them to be something else.
LOVE IS THE SOURCE OF UNITY.

Love is . . . The freedom to pursue your own desires while sharing your experiences with the other person, The growth of one individual alongside of and together with the growth of another individual.
LOVE IS THE SOURCE OF SUCCESS.

Love is . . . The excitement of planning things together, The excitement of doing things together.
LOVE IS THE SOURCE OF THE FUTURE.

Love is . . . The fury of the storm, The calm in the rainbow.
LOVE IS THE SOURCE OF PASSION.

Love is . . . Giving and taking in a daily situation, Being patient with each other's needs and desires.
LOVE IS THE SOURCE OF SHARING.

Love is . . . Knowing that the other person will always be with you regardless of what happens, Missing the other person when they are away but remaining near in heart at all times.
LOVE IS THE SOURCE OF SECURITY.
LOVE IS . . . THE SOURCE OF LIFE!”

Warthogs Dilemma



I some times feel rejected and thought to have friends. Isolated, set aside forgotten and never existed. But its only a feeling, my imagination, assumption or I rally did something very STUPID.

Relationship have its different levels, categories, impression or interpretation. Setting a relationship to someone either a bonding emotional or just acquaintances  may differ in the environment or situation. All I want to say is that there are things I assume but someone misunderstood it. Miss-communication is also another misunderstanding. So its better to have good solid clear communication so you'll not be feeling talking on the other planet

Warthogs Dilemma - when a warthog would like to approach another warthog they just get hurt each other. and that is why they keep distance from each other. Because of the spiky hair on their skin.

Yet I agree to be really be careful to people who we trust. Good Friend are hard to find, you could have a thousand friend in social sites but only a few will be true.  So be civil to everyone, so when a particular will be there for you in good or in bad. You are the riches person in the world for no gold would weigh it compare to a TRUE GOOD FRIEND.

"Be Civil to All. Acquaintance to Many Be Friends to Few. And Enemies to None."

Sugar Coated Machineries – What Lies Beneath...

Ship's Crew and Officers who are so called wash paint guys, has one particular objective: “Make the vessel and its machineries look like brand new.” Sounds convincing? But its not entirely safe for a ship to be operated. This kind of people only knew how to clean a vessel. This is only to impress Authorities that ship is maintained properly and nothing further to inspect. They lack knowledge and confidence to put the machineries to the test for safe operation. Not all machineries “newly painted & oil free” are working well some are already in trouble.

I'm not saying not to maintain the cleanliness of the ship but insure inside out of the machinery that it is ship shape ready.

Operating this over-painted machineries have its disadvantages:
  • Time consuming, difficulty of of removing, chipping out the layers of paint especially on bolt heads, nuts and screw drive heads. It also leads to misalignment.
  • Paint chips easily enters the inside part of the machinery causes clogging and abrasive wear leading to faulty operation and damage.
  • Overheating, thick layers of paint on heat exchangers (e.g. motor fins, air cooled plate fins) are having difficulty of removing heat in the machinery.
  • During a fire, paint finish burns and produces toxic fumes.
Over painted tubes will have difficulty removing the nuts and takes more time in maintenance. Bits of paint particles could enter the system and  damage, if not properly cleaned.

Removing thick layers of paint 

So prior to painting a machinery make sure that:

  • It has already been inspected and maintained.
  • That dirt and oil are already wiped off and free.
  • Strategically paint on areas that have no effect on machineries and maintenance operation. Especially don't paint on heat removing fins, plates. and ejection ports.
  • Use thin coating of paint to cover metal expose surface to prevent rusting.
  • Practice patch-up painting.
  • Use the correct designation or type of paint to be use, be very aware that paint are flammable materials that very hot surfaces can make regular paint ignite.
  • Use your proper personal protective equipment when painting and the area is safe, free from naked flames.
