kuya Iggy showed us

how to bear pain and

sickness gracefully

sincerely happy for the

opportunity God has

blessed usmdashto touch

other lives and in turn

be touched by them

Every year the Chapter

governance come to pray

and discern over the ac-

tivities the chapter will

embark This includes

looking into its member-

ship and evaluating the

strengths and weaknesses

of the action groups And

so reorganization follows

For the year 2011 the

Chapter governance re-

mains the same There are

changes however in the

Action Group level A full

listing of the Chapter Or-

ganization is on pages 4

and 5

It is worth noting that

regrouping should be

taken in the positive light

It is an opportunity to

know deeper the lives and

circumstances of other

Kuyas and Ates In the

process we come to un-

derstand them more and

be more sensitive to their

needs Isnrsquot this what com-

munity is all about

And so as we welcome

one another in the new

action groups let us be

Mactan Chapter

And I replied How much

do you need But my pretty little Juliet

couldnt quite figure out

how much She finally

brought me to her Dad

who asked me why I be-

lieved I loved her Well

sir I said you see the

first time I saw her my

knees felt weak My heart

pounded real fast and I

had a hard time breath-

ing

Thats not love stupid

the father roared What

you have is asthma That knocked me

out So I proceeded in-

stead to court my pretty

Chinese neighbor For

two months I kept sending

h e r s i o m a i a n d

hopia When she finally

asked me why I an-

swered I want to siomai

love for you Hopia like

it

Well what do you

know She liked it And

so for two years she and I

were delirious and happy -

- until we got married Our marriage was a

true example of co-

operation When she

coos I operate But then

that modus operandi did-

nt last long It ended

when she started to keep

pets in our house Now

we have all breeds of

dog I simply couldnt

stand them We have two

Dobermans a pair of Chi-

huahua one German Shep-

herd and the only one that

barks is the wife Yes marriage may be

made in heaven But so

are thunder and lightning

Thats what I told my wife

too And she accused me

of not having any sense of

humor I told her Are

you kidding In fact I even

have an official document

to prove that I have a

sense of humor Oh yeah Show me

your proof she de-

manded I showed her our

marriage contract

Its really ironical De-

spite the popular adage

that we should never bring

our troubles to bed I still

sleep with my wife At any

rate that helps somehow

to maintain the sanity in

our love life As a matter

of fact we still go to mov-

ies holding hands She

holds her hand and I hold

mine Well love may mean

never having to say youre

sorry But marriage means

never having the chance to

resign Nevertheless true

lovers like you and I can

endure the travails of love

come what may We

should be like King Richard

who said Take my

m o n e y t a k e m y

throne Just leave me with

my wife alone

What is this thing called

love Some people con-

sider love as an affair An

affair consisting of three

rings the engagement ring

the wedding ring and the

suffering Love to me is an essen-

tial part of life without

which life would be mean-

ingless That was also how

my friend felt when he

came to me one day feeling

depressed He wanted to

end his life because he

couldnt find anyone to

love him I said Look

thats not a problem If

nobody loves you why

dont you love yourself

That was exactly what he

did And to this day he

never has had any competi-

tion I have been in love many

many times before I am

what you may call the ma-

cho type I go after anyone

I see in skirts And the

other day I almost got

slapped by the Mother

Superior

Well I guess love needs

to be properly expressed

to be truly appreciated I

had a girl who wanted me to reaffirm my love for

her She asked me

Darling do you truly love

me

Yes my dear I as-

s u r e d h e r

How much do you love

How precious must

man be in the eyes of

the Creator if he

gave his only Son in

order that man should

not perish but have eter-

nal life66

if he does not experience

it and make it his own if

he does not participate

intimately in it

The man who wishes

to understand himself

thoroughly must with his

unrest uncertainty and

even his weakness and

sinfulness with his life

and death draw near to

Christ He must so to

speak enter into him

with all his own self he

must appropriate and

assimilate the whole of

the reality of the Incarna-

8 Steps to Heaven

Bro Ale Aguspina

this profound process

takes place within him

he then bears fruit not

only of adoration of God

but also of deep wonder

at himself

Redemptor hominis

10 (Pope John Paul II

first encyclical) states

How precious must

man be in the eyes of

the Creator if he

gained so great a Re-

deemer65 and if God

gave his only Son in

order that man should

not perish but have eter-

nal life66

if he does not experience

it and make it his own if

he does not participate

intimately in it

The man who wishes

to understand himself

thoroughly must with his

unrest uncertainty and

even his weakness and

sinfulness with his life

and death draw near to

Christ He must so to

speak enter into him

with all his own self he

must appropriate and

assimilate the whole of

the reality of the Incarna-

tion and Redemption in

order to find himself If

Man is in continuous

search for his own iden-

tity and purpose in Life

According to Christian

Anthropology man is

created in Godrsquos own

image and likeness (Gen

126) 1 John 48 states

―God is love Jesus

Christ truly God and truly man is one person

and His nature is love

Man cannot live with-

out love He remains a

being that is incompre-

hensible for himself his

life is senseless if love is

not revealed to him if he

does not encounter love

6 Service Putting

love in action

7 Joy Here we now

have our priorities set

That is 1 God 2 Fam-

ily 3 Job

Our first priority should

be God For Scripture

says ―Seek first the king-

dom of God and His

righteousness and all the

rest will fall in line

8 Heaven If we are

to reach this place we

must take the 2nd to the

7th steps slowly

but surely

1 The world We are

born and live in a world

where sin abound

2 Conversion Some-

how we come to know

God and His love

3 Empowerment We

let the Holy Spirit be

active in our life

4 Group Member-ship We seek to belong

to a group

5 Community Groups

come together having

one heart and one mind

The chapter assembly

for January 2011 deviated

from its regular format to

give way to a beautiful

teaching given by Brother

Ale Aguspina

Since the goal of our

life is being united with

God our maker it is but

fitting to start the year

refreshing us of how we

should take that journey

Brother Ale outlined

the eight steps to heaven

simply and beautifully that

they seem easy Easy or

not here are the steps
