ARMIS Training in Palawan

RMIS coordinators train on Agriculture Research and Management Information System (ARMIS)on April 21-23, 2009 at Asturias Hotel, Puerto Princesa City, Palawan.

It was serious work and fun combined. Much much more fun when we ended the training and had our city tour.

At Mitra's Ranch in Sta. Monica (ooops, you can't see now the view of Honda Bay)

At Baker's Hill (famous for its hopia and beautiful gardens)

At Crocodile Farm (these are the baby freshwater crocodiles)

At Iwahig Penal Farm where we bought souvenir items made by the prisoners. Where's the picture?

At Baywalk (it was fun posing and jumping for the shoot, didn't care if there were people watching us...)

Sail On

"Life here on earth is a temporary assignment." - Rick Warren

They say that we are just like passing ships. Wherever we go and drop anchor, we learn something that makes our lives never the same again.

Life may have brought us disappointments, failures, discouragements, broken hearts and other negative thoughts and emotions but life goes on.

Along the way, we meet people who touch our lives one way or the other. Some become true friends. Most of them just acquaintances.

We are here in this world temporarily. We are not yet home.

Whatever happens, the Lord will never leave us nor forsake us. He always knows what's best for us.

Everything happens for a reason.

There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.

You don't have to know a lot of things for your life to make a lasting difference in the world. But you do have to know the few great things that matter, and then be willing to live for them and die for them.
- John Piper

And in the end it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.
