《Tula at kaisipan》Butil ng Luha
Advertisement
Ang iyong hapunan ay mga butil ng iyong luhang namumuo sa iyong mata
at kay pakit ng lasa, nakakasawa na sa pakla, pakla nang mga nakaraang iniiyakan mo gabi gabi, pagkat hindi parin nagsisink in ang mga pangyayari, oh, paano na? paano na ako sisigla kung ang aking kinakain sa hapag ay ang aking mga luhang pumapatak sa sahig ng lugar kung saan kaya kong ibuhos ang patak ng mga luha kong naipon na nang panahon at naulila sa maghapon pagkat pinipigilang bumuhos na lang bigla at magmukhang kahiyahiya sa harap ng iba. Kailan ko matitikman ang ngiti kung saan hindi ko na ibubos pa ang mga luha para mabusog at mawalan nang ganang sumama sa hapag kasama ang aking pamilya. Kung saan kaya kong sumaya, maging malaya at lumigaya, siguro hindi ko pa nakikita ang halaga nang bawat butil ng luha kong nginangawa, at ito siguro ay magsisilbing paalala na hindi kasaya sayang kainin ang sarili mong luha.
Pagkadapa
Sinabi nila tignan mo ang iyong daraanan baka ika'y matalisod at masugatan. Ito lang ay parang buhay kung hindi mo titignan ang daraanan patungo sa kanais nais buhay na iyong kagustuhan, baka ika'y matisod sa kawalan ng pag-asang kaya mo palang lumakad, mapagod ka ma't mahirapan. Titignan mo lamang, kailangan maging mapanuri baka naman ika'y mabunggo kung hindi mo titignan ang iyong harapan. Tignan mo ang iyong paahan baka may kung ano ka nang naapakan at magdulot pa sayo ng kapahamakan. Ganyan lamang ang buhay, hindi ka matututo kung hindi ka pa nasusugatan. Hindi ka babangon kung hindi ka pa nadadapa o baka naman umiyak ka na lang at antaying may magtayo sayo kagaya nung ika'y paslit na bata pa lamang, kung saan nakaalalay ang iyong magulang upang ika'y protektahan. Ina na ang panahon, kailangan mong matutong bumangon, at gamutin ang sarili mong sugat. Ingatan ang sarili't bumangon, kahit madapa muli ay alam mong ika'y babangon muli. Tumingin sa iyong paahan huwag laging sa harapan pagkat ang paa natin ang nagdadala sa ating parorooan.

For as long as history has been recorded, the scrolls have held power over all life on the continent. When a blight was forthcoming, the scrolls foretold it. When dangerous beasts reared their faces in civilised society, the scrolls chose the bravest and brightest to defend our way of life. It is only fair, then, that the scrolls would guide our brave adventurers through every step they should take upon \The Path/. Take heart, you intrepid four, for your scroll within your grasp connects you to the will of the world itself. Follow where it leads, and you will find your path to greatness. -Prefect Chelbun; The Initiated's Guide to Adventure Solomon always took the words of his scroll to heart. Where the scroll led, he would have his team follow. Any doubts his team may have were always dashed away by the words scrawled upon that ethereal parchment. Were that ever to fail, swift dicipline would bring his team in line. When the scroll told him to take his first retirement early, he was more than willing to return home and spend the next five years in comfort. It's such a shame, then, that Solomon's team had other plans for him. Clive was never was a fan of the rules, but he still played his part. Despite this, every moment was spent seeing how far he could strech things before he was broken back into line. Now that he was 'retired', however, he had much more room to stretch himself. Now he's got a plan, one that might just make the rules bend his way, for once. Meanwhile, some intrepid new adventurers are ready to make a name for themselves. Fresh off their initiation, they've already received their first quest, their first tale to tell around the hearth. Chances are good, however, that this story is beyond anything they were expecting. On a journey through uncharted territory, laberinthine cities, and conspiracies older than time itself, only one thing is certain. Whatever comes their way, it's sure to be an amusing tale.
