We need your help…

I’ve been so preoccupied with my job that I haven’t done anything productive lately with our blogs. Now, I forced my already tired body to focus and finally do something I love…write. If you’ve watched the news lately, you may have come across the typhoon that hit my country last September 26. The typhoon “Ketsana” more popularly known as “Ondoy” caused severe flooding which resulted in the destruction of thousands of homes and the loss of many lives.

Due to the fact that all the time I have is mostly spent at work and taking care of my son, Vaughn, this is the only time I got to check YouTube hoping people were able to shoot scenes that happened when the typhoon hit.

My family and I are lucky enough to be far away from where the tragedy was hit but seeing people cry over the loss of their loved ones and what was left of their homes is just too much to bare. I thought the only way we can offer help is to at least give them the things they need to survive after the disaster such as donating dry goods, clothing, money or any form of assistance. Even employees who work at our company’s sites in Manila were affected and some are even proclaimed missing. So with this said, I am imploring you to help the victims of the typhoon “Ondoy.” Even just a small amount can make a difference to the lives of the victims.

This is definitely a tragic moment for Filipinos. Please pray for those who’ve lost so much during this tragedy. :cry:

In case you’re not aware of this tragedy check out YouTube for videos taken when the typhoon hit our country. Check out this video.

Bill Clinton on Gay Marriage

Embedded video from CNN Video

Just recently I read this post from AOL about former US President Clinton’s perception on Gay Marriage. Clinton recently altered his stand on same sex marriage. During an interview with Anderson Cooper of CNN, Clinton explained that each US state still has the right to decide whether they should legalize same-sex marriage but he no longer opposes to it personally.

Here’s a statement from the former President:

“I realized that I was over 60 years old. I grew up in a different time … and I was hung up about it,” Clinton said. “I decided I was wrong.”

Check out the video to know Clinton decided to change his mind.
