Heaven's New Policy

It was getting a little crowded in Heaven, so God decided to change the admittance policy. The new law was that, in order to get into Heaven, you had to have a really bad day when you died. The policy would go into effect at noon the next day. The next day at 12:01, the first person came to the gates of Heaven. The Angel at the gate, remembering the new policy, promptly said to the man, "Before I let you in, I need you to tell me how your day was going when you died."

"No problem," the man said. "I came home to my 25th floor apartment on my lunch hour and caught my wife half naked. She appeared to be having an affair, but her lover was nowhere in sight. I immediately began searching for him. My wife was yelling at me as I searched the entire apartment. Just as I was about to give up, I happened to glance out onto the balcony and noticed that there was a man hanging off the edge by his fingertips! The nerve of that guy! Well, I ran out onto the balcony and stomped on his fingers until he fell to the ground. But wouldn't you know it, he landed in some trees and bushes that broke his fall and he didn't die. This pissed me off even more. In a rage, I went back inside to get the first thing I could get my hands on to throw at him. Oddly enough, the first thing I thought of was the refrigerator. I unplugged it, pushed it out onto the balcony, and tipped it over the side. It plummeted 25 stories and crushed him! The excitement of the moment was so great that I had a heart attack and died almost instantly."

The Angel sat back and thought a moment. Technically, the guy did have a bad day. It was a crime of passion. So,the Angel announced, "Ok, sir. Welcome to the Kingdom of Heaven," and let him in.
A few seconds later the next guy came up. The Angel said, "Before I can let you in, I need to hear about what your day was like when you died."


"No problem," said the second man. "But you're not going to believe this. I was on the balcony of my 26th floor apartment doing my daily exercises. Having been under a lot of pressure I was really pushing hard to relieve my stress. I guess I got a little carried away, slipped, and accidentally fell over the side! Luckily, I was able to catch myself by the fingertips on the balcony below mine. But all of a sudden this crazy man comes running out of his apartment, started cussing, and stomps on my fingers. Well, of course I fell. I hit some trees and bushes at the bottom which broke my fall so I didn't die right away. As I'm laying there face up on the ground, unable to move, and in excruciating pain, I see this guy push his refrigerator, of all things, off the balcony. It falls the 25 floors and lands on top of me, killing me instantly."

The Angel is quietly laughing to himself as the man finishes his story. "I could get used to this new policy," he thinks to himself. "Very well," the Angel announces. "Welcome to the Kingdom of Heaven," and he lets the man enter.
A few seconds later, a third man comes up to the gate. The angel says," Please tell me how you died." The third man says,"Ok, picture this. I'm naked, hiding inside a refrigerator...."

hiyee!:) i'm back...i am somehow relieved but as you can see i still feel blue (just notice the color of the font!hehe)... any way, i accept the fact that everything happens for a reason and i know that there are just some things that i have to give importance that this but i am just also human to feel sadness, disappointments. well that's just about it let's close the book about that and move on!:)

..and it is that time of year again for us christians/catholics to remember the suffering and death of Jesus Christ for our own sake...but for me, this year like what had happened during christmas and new year...i won't be able to apply the usual rituals i do during holy week..it really sucks because this is the time of the year that at least we have to reflect and meditate on the things we've done and have to do specially in regards to our spiritual needs...well, this is how my parents and relatives raised me, i am not just used to still going to work during the holy week specially up to good friday till black saturday morning..well, i believe change is the only permanent in this world but is it really have to be like this in the professional world?....

i guess eventhough these things surrounds me i just have to continue living my faith and make it grow only for His great glory...(God, i'm sorry..haven't been good lately..as always..)

hiyee blog..its been so long since i last poured out my heartaches and joys on you..well i guess this is the perfect time to do it..but i won't be so much into detal now..need to do a lot of things...maybe some parts will just be continued during my lunch break..:)

you know that smiley doesn't fit here in my blog for this situation i will be sharing with you...first of all, let's just start with something to smile about..let's reminisce :) so that not all will be a bore to all of you who will be reading this...here goes...

last feb.19?..hehe, i'm not that sure any more with the date,but we had our 1st team building at puerto galera, oriental mindoro.it was fun,memorable,fine! romantic if you're with your significant other..unfortunate for me..hehe..adventurous when i first experience how to snorkle..wow,God!thanks for these wonderful creations of yours..corals,school of fishes,the sunrise and the sunset,sand,waves,moonlight..hehe..great feeling!:) ..ok,that's it...:p

next in line are the disappointments i've experienced. well, after this conversation i know i will be fine..:)

...when one of my teammates was let say in a good manner, asked to leave the premises permanently..that's it! we are not that close but in a way he showed kindness to me..when i admit sometimes i am a little bit cranky to him :p well any way,there are lots of ways to communicate and keep in touch with each other still, right?!:)

and i guess the ultimate frustration i have now (whatta line!) is the sudden cancellation of my just-about-to-start, hopefully, drum lessons with stonefree's drummer..tada!..relly mangubat..:'( ..damn, i am really sorry relly..(if u could only read this)..excitement was all over my body when you replied to my email thru a text message..i know you felt how much interested i am to the sessions you will be conducting, indeed i looked forward to it ... it doesn't matter how far your location is,even sunday is one of my rest day,i believe it would be a blast spending it with you learning the thing i always dreamed of doing and knowing..it doesn't matter if i am a girl so what?! the hell with that reason in this age and time...i understand that it could take some parts of my time into spending instead with my family but man, that's not forever just 14 sessions will do...it doesn't matter if i am not going to have my own band..what matter is the knowledge,fun and aquaintance with my other "classmates" who will be joining the sessions..just jamming with each other learning together as you said over the phone...

but i guess this is not the right time for me to experience this...with all these people and situation that hinders me to do it...well, i just want to make it happen because this kind of chances comes only once, you might open lessons like this in the future but may be the fun and excitement won't be the same as the one before it,you know what i meant right...i just want to grab this opportunity right now that its in front of me..but i guess i can not any more now we've settled it, i apologized and thank you for your patience :)
nice knowing you to...:) (oops, i'll continue it later...)
