every maundy thursday for the last five years, my family made it a point to do the annual visita iglesia to the different churches in dumaguete. this year we went farther, starting from siaton down to zamboanguita, dauin, bacong then up to valencia. what a trip!

The Gospel of Judas

Have you seen this special presentation of the National Geographic channel. I did! and after the episode what happened to me, my faith? something! It only strengthened my faith in God's love and His infinite wisdom. that indeed there is a God who has a plan for all of us. in the gospel, judas was portrayed not as a betrayer but a purveyor. well, it's the gnostics' words against the writer of the earlier written four gospels of MMLJ. even if we put an iota of truth on the gospel, it still does not justify judas' suicide as told in the MMLJ gospels. like most of us, we are called to do some sacrifices for a "noble" cause. but what we do after that justifies who we are and what we will become. not unlike most of us who looks at "sacrifices" as an opportunity to gain political patronage, judas did what most politicians will never do, commit suicide for the sake of delikadesa (he he he!) batu-bato sa langit, tamaan huwag magalit.

Sound of Silence!

I think I should get myself together and spend some time updating my blog. sometimes when I am in the thick of things, I do forget I have a blog or sometimes call it plain laziness. I guess I'm an artist, they say artists are moody, and almost always my fingers goes with my mood.
