For the Love and Lust of It

Ever since her life as a student, Public Servant PS was already an achiever. Being a diligent student from day one, she strived to capture school awards that she could proudly bring home to her parents. She carried on that self-imposed discipline throughout her educational journey. She was so obsessed with collecting awards that continued to her professional life.

But unbeknownst to most, such passion to excel did not come like a walk in the park and without setback. She obviously worked hard for it and thus cultivated in her the bad habit of taking all the credits for every little honor and award she got without acknowledging the the equally hardworking people and staff who helped her in those accomplishments. PS is often accused of over self-promotion, and at times inventing non-existent titles/honors just to put herself in a pedestal.

PS has many advocacies, most of them geared for the protection of children and women. Yet some people privy to her know how badly she treats her own household staff - such as not providing them with sufficient food, a problem that the helpers have to contend with every single day. PS is forever on a diet, but for her househelp who are always loaded with work, dieting is the last thing on their mind...the last thing they will ever do.

People who know her say that PS, inspite of her public image of compassion doesn't have a heart towards the people closest to her, those who work for her. A very demanding boss, her staff is overworked as she expects from them the same workhours she imposes on herself. Something the staff frowns at and cries foul because unlike her, they don't have their boss' luxurious lifestyle and millions in financial perks.

PS obviously doesn't walk her talk. She's quite popular in public because they don't know any better that amidst the public image of honesty is the absence of transparency. A self-proclaimed middle class raised by daily wage earning parents with no business to speak of, how are the mansions and properties situated in well-entrenched and paved communities be explained?

As some pundits would say -- "Let them turn green with envy."

Letter from a Reader: Mrs. Cynthia Villar Disrespected the Nursing Profession

Mrs. Cynthia Villar,

We, nurses, are so disappointed by what you have said about our profession. That we don't deserve quality education, that we don't need to finish BSN, that we are "room" nurses and that we don't need to be good at what we do?

Shame! You didn't just disrespect us and our profession but you also disrespected our parents who worked very hard just to put us through nursing school. It is so sad to know that even our own "kababayan" degraded our profession that is known to be noble. Reality check MRS. CYNTHIA VILLAR, please count all the unregistered and registered nurses in the Philippines and overseas. Do you think you will win the Senate race?

Betrayed by My Friend

It seems that stunning actress (SA) must have learned that even those she considers as closest and trustworthy friends can speak behind her back and reveal her deepest secrets to an unsuspecting audience. Thus, SA must have figured out by now the source of the alleged stories circulating about her.

First, SA is allegedly bragging about her one night experience with athlete-actor (AA). AA is quite good looking and would be anyone’s dream catch especially now that he is single. Too bad, it was probably just physical attraction as they have never been linked. The question is if they hooked up when they were both in their former relationships. Well, AA has moved on and is now paired with another equally stunning talent of their network.

Second, SA is allegedly hooked on a certain habit. This issue is quite critical as SA again has never had any similar issue linked to her name and reputation. Her image has always been clean and wholesome, and the network has kept it that way. Despite her well-publicized break up, SA faced the aftermath with poise and grace.

So, how did these personal details leak out? Well, when friends get into a nasty fight, someone can just say things without thinking of the repercussions of telling stories against the other. The most difficult things in confiding to a friend are that one will never know how long the friendship will last, and if the other party will start talking just because the friendship got tainted by a quarrel or a betrayal.

As William Blake said, “It is easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend,” and much more effort will it take to forgive a former close friend.

A Restaurant Meet - Up Story

Image courtesy of www.eventful.com

Cute Actor CA has always been questioned about his preferences. Ever since he got noticed on his television soaps, the same kind of talk hounded him. It maybe partly due to his hunky physique and handsome attributes that people, especially his many women fans can’t seem to accept if he indeed is. Anyway you put it, the fact that since such rumors refuse to die down, there must be something than meets the eye.

To his credit, CA just let these talks go around and take its course – he neither denied nor confirmed it, not until recently when he flatly denied the whole thing and all the gossips that went around for sometime. Some observers were not convinced. Celebrities especially for someone as popular as CA, tend to catch people’s attention anywhere they go, and that includes parties and/or gatherings they attend to.

At a dinner that he recently attended along with some good friends, CA was in a celebratory mood and allegedly got one drink too many. The party venue was held in a relatively pricey restaurant. While some waiters were serving them, CA took a liking to one of the waiters WR. Throughout the party, his eyes were fixated towards WR alone - his special waiter that evening.

A day after, at the same restaurant, waiters were having a blast talking animatedly about the scoop of the day: CA took home WR! Apparently, WR, the kiss and tell, was bragging to his colleagues about his extra-ordinary and unforgettable evening with CA the night before. WR said he just couldn’t get over CA - his kindness, his generosity, his versatility and full-packed giftedness. Oh uh …

"Our privacy, our secrecy. It is between just you and me. If we should gel, you need not dwell. Guaranteed! I don't kiss and tell" - Ronnie Doe
