I went to Dinner with a friend of the family and her relatives last night, with her mother’s siblings in particular. With the way they speak to each other, you can tell that they’re a very closely knit family who grew with a lot of love in the home.
The eldest sister went to share about her plan to sell her property, and her what she plan to do with the proceeds. She is buying another 4 lots to give her children one each and built a home on those. She says that you can not tell what the future holds and she want to plan things before something happens. She wants to make sure she lives an inheritance to her children with everything in order.
I really admire people who view things in a very practical way…she is like my mom who is very good in planning. She has all her property titles being placed in order, she invested in insurances like life and non life including a funeral insurance which greatly helped us prevent getting into a crisis when something unexpected happened, the quick passing of my dad after diagnosis that he had Aplastic Anemia, to be specific.
I learned a lot being with them last night.

Be Honest!
Even others are not.
Even other will not.
Even others can not.
He who walks honestly, walks securely. - Proverbs 10:9
A message from the Brotherhood of Christian Businessmen & Professionals.
A very good principle Aklanons live by. And an excellent reminder to everyone of how we should be.
Keep it Up BCBP!!!

Renaissance Period
If you can travel through time, which periods would you like to go to?
First, I would want to travel back to bible times, when Jesus was born in Bethlehem, when Moses crossed the Red Sea, and when Jesus died on the Cross. I want to be able to walk around the Via Dolorosa and feel what it was like then. Life was simpler… women were concerned about talking care of the home, children and husband.
Also, I want to travel back to the Renaissance Period when people wore elegant clothes, women in Gowns, corsets, and hair was nicely done. They traveled on carriages and parties were in elegant ballrooms.
I also want to travel to the time of Napoleon Bonaparte, King Arthur and the likes because I really enjoy Epics like the movies Brave Heart, Alexander, 300.
