This Is All About Love and Friendship

That's What Friends Are For

Friendship.
The dictionary says:

Friend (frend) noun.
1. A person whom one knows, likes and trusts.
2. A person with whom one is allied in a struggle or cause; comrade.
3. One who supports, sympathizes with, or patronizes a group.
4. An acquaintance.

The dictionary makes one small omission tho.
It doesn't speak of the years that a friendship endures,
the laughter that fills the air when friends are together,
the support, understanding and comfort a friend can offer or
the anguish you cannot escape from when a friend is dying.
The dictionary, I'm afraid, cannot begin to define the word:

Friend.

So then what is this magic called Friendship?
Is there a magic wand that silently transforms you and
those special people on a jouney into,
what sometimes can be a lifelong relationship?

Is it mutual admiration, common interests, the need to be a friend?
Or is it just an enduring tie that bonds you together,
allows you to almost think as one and gives you one of lifes greatest joys.

Friendships are precious jewels. Treat them as such.
Enjoy them!
Celebrate them! And never take them for granted.

Passions In Poetry

Poetry has magic, especially when it comes from the heart. It can touch us, move us, delight us, enlighten us, make us laugh, make us cry, and both soften and enrich our deepest memories. It is the tie that bind one stranger to another, often in friendship, sometimes in love, always in understanding.

This blog site is about love and passion, about poems that communicate deep and profound feelings of the heart and soul. It's about people. People like you and me. People who have experienced life and love, the good and the bad, and wish to share those feelings with friends.

Princess Hours

On December 18, 2006, Princess Hours premiered on ABS-CBN in the Philippines. Ratings hit 18.9%[1], and the show lagged against A Rosy Life of GMA7, which was in the latter's final week of airing. However, as the story unfolded, the ratings increased to about 24%, beating Jumong, another Koreanovela franchise of GMA7.

The characters have undergone name changes to better fit the Philippine populace: Chae-kyeong became Janelle, Lee Shin became Gian, Lee Yool became Troy, and Min Hyo-rin became Monique. As with other Koreanovelas, the show was dubbed in native Tagalog. Princess Hours is currently shown Monday to Thursday at 10:30 PM (Philippine Time) in the Primetime Bida of ABS-CBN.

The theme song included on the official soundtrack, "Perhaps Love" (Hangul:sarangingayo (romanized), originally sung by J and HowL), was translated into Tagalog as "Pag-ibig Nga Kaya" and performed by Christian Bautista and Rachelle Ann Go. Another theme song, entitled "If We Fall In Love", was composed by RJ Jimenez and sung by Yeng Constantino with the composer.

This Korean Telenovela is one of my all-time favorites. I like this one aside from "Memories Of Bali", "My Girl", "Forbidden Love" and "Green Rose". For those who are not yet watching the program, please try to do so. It's a wonderful korean telenovela brought to us by the No. 1 Network in the country, ABS-CBN.

Learning About Friendship

How To Be A Good Friend


This is a passage which explains how to be a good friend. I will try not to get to soppy and lovey dovey and keep details strictly to the cold hearted facts (actually, maybe I won't be that severe and detour from the cold and hard facts occasionally!).

Step 1: I suggest that if you want to be a good friend you become friends with someone you actually like. This automatically eliminates all teachers, politicians and people who get rid of school holidays.

Step 2: Once you have found someone you have things in common with, you should expand on this and get to know your friend better. Perhaps inviting his/her to sit next to you in maths or even talking to him/her now and then could help.

Step 3: If you mutually decide you have some things in common, good - you have found yourself a nice new friend. If you don't have anything in common, don't worry and keep searching - there are plenty of other fishes in the sea!

Step 4: Now yes, this friend will require quite a large proportion of your time, because naturally both parties need to be enthusiastic for a friendship to blossom. This means that you will need to support your friend in all their chosen paths, but be prepared to advise them against treading through dangerous waters.

Step 5: A friendship which is built upon mutual trust, respect, support and (my favourite) the acceptance of differences and the right to be an individual will foster other benefits such as loads of fun times where you party together or just hang out and share secrets (now don't deny it - these are the benefits that you were just itching to hear about!!)

Step 6: Well, now that you've found a friend, you should work on keeping them (that is if want to be a good friend and not just a friend fling). My best word of advice would be to continue with the above steps, make your friend feel loved and wanted and show you do care about them. If they're down and feel like they have no one in the world, prove them wrong by rocking up to their house with a bunch of sunflowers and a bottle of wine (or cordial, depending on how old you and your friends are) and talk through their concerns with them. If you're not the flower type, take them out for a big night on the town for a sure fire way to lift their spirits!

And so everyone, if you choose to take my advice and it sucessfully finds you a good friend, then I fulfilled my task!! I now wish to sign, stay cool and happy friend hunting:)

Friends In Love


I have feelings of love for the guy I see.
Does he love me too, what does he think of me?

I wish I could tell him he makes me whole, but I'm afraid to say
what's deep in my soul.

I don't want to lose him, for I would be alone,
and some days I just can't wait to hear his voice on the phone.

He does certain things to make me feel loved,
some days he wants to be alone and my heart is shoved.

I want to feel as though I am his safeguard,
the one he can come to when things get hard.

I will always be there to help him along,
and before we met I wasn't as strong.

I wish I could tell him what I feel inside,
but I'm afraid of what he'll say, how he'll act on the outside.

Friends Are Angels

This Friend
D.S. Hilario


I love having you as a friend,
You make my day brighter,
I'm happy with this friend I've found
Who makes my burdens lighter.
Whenever I see you,
It makes me want to smile,
You were never too cool,
Always in Style.
Don't you ever leave me,
I'll never make you frown,
By your side I'll always be,
Especially when you're down.
Even through the worst of days,
I will be right here,
Watching you through ever faze,
Catching every tear.
You hold my feelings in your hand,
Every single one,
My friendship will forever stand,
Even when the fun is done.
So don't ever forget me,
For I will not forget you,
Here for you I will always be,
No matter what you do.
If others could feel as free,
As I feel with this Friend,
Friendship and warmth is all they'd see,
And love would never end.

Love And Friendship

When I Sleep
D. S. Hilario


When darkness awakens, my body settles gently into bed.
The events of my day race rapidly in my thoughts as I close my eyes.
Slowly, I am lulled into a peaceful sleep.

I hear vibrant music - so full of passion.
I feel the warmth of the sun’s rays that grace my presence.
I see kind, adoring eyes gazing back into mine.

The air is full happiness - so much laughter.
Soft caresses are exchanged.
At this moment, life could not be any more wonderful.

I have never felt so beautiful; as I do when I am with you.
I have finally found the respect and acceptance that I have yearned for.
I eagerly listen to inspirational dreams and goals
and know that I want to be the one to be there
when they are complete.

A thin line of love and friendship is crossed,
and two single souls find a home to share eternity.

Birds begin to proudly serenade the morning dawn.
Lonesome roads slowly progress into distinguished passageways.
Light peeps through my windows and I awaken to a new day.
I am ready to endure what the day has in store for me,
because I know that I am a queen,
and I know extraordinary love when I sleep.

Cyber Friend

A True Friend
D. S. Hilario


We met upon
the internet,
My heart you did
not have yet.

I sit and wait each day,
for the song my
heart will soon play.

Of laughter, love and tears,
You have washed away
all my fears.

To be my friend
and see so deep,
I now know why
I don't get
much sleep.

I have waited
through all these
years,
To find something
to hold so dear.

And now I know
I'll never be
Blue,
For I have found
a true friend
in you.

Friendship Poem

Friendship isn't always easily described. The Eskimos, they say, have a hundred different words for snow. Unfortunately, the English language isn't quite as innovative, though it has vast opportunities to differentiate meaning. Certainly, Love is one of those opportunities. And so, too, is Friendship.

Instead of different words, however, we're stuck with simple adjectives. Close friend. Best friend. Childhood friend. Intimate friend. Trusted friend. Beloved friend. But whether you use adjectives or different words, few could deny the nearly infinite meaning in such a simple word.

Friends are special people. We can't pick our family, and we're sorely limited in the number of them at any rate. Society and mores (and often our own conscience) dictate we select a single mate. But our friends can be as diverse and infinite as the adjectives we choose. Our friends, in a very real sense, reflect the choices we make in life.
