Japan to hire 30 skilled workers from Negros
Good morning everyone. Japan will be hiring 30 skilled workers from Negros. This will mean a lot to all people there. They saw the kindness of Japanese government for helping pilipino people. It will be a great help to those 30 skilled workers who will be chosen.
SOME 19 Japanese contractors will hire 30 skilled workers from the province of Negros Occidental.
Kunimori Saito, training consultant of the Multi Contractor Cooperative (Marucon), said they came to the Philippines, especially Negros, to hire Filipino skilled workers such as carpenters and masons, among others.
Saito said 50 companies from Japan gathered together to hire skilled workers from the Philippines.
He added that for the last five years, they already sent almost 500 Filipino skilled workers to Japan. Last year, they hired almost 62 Filipino skilled workers.
Yoshitaka Kukuminato, president of the Philippine Japan Technical Skills Development Association, said since the day of the hiring, they already received almost 150 applicants from Negros Occidental with 30 of the applicants to be chosen.
Marucon conducted a screening selection Sunday from among the 150 applicants. The lucky 30 would be finalized today.
He said they prefer to hire Filipino skilled workers because they are competitive and hardworking compared to other workers from Asian countries.
Kukuminato said despite the global economic crisis, they would still continue training Filipinos to be sent to Japan, a country that is also affected by the recession. - Sunstar

Naggers (2 of 2)
Not so with couples who do not have the same level of love. They hold to their respective positions come what may. They say that they do so as a matter of principle, even if it means sacrificing a measure of peace and harmony in the process. They have not learned to dance with the music that they don’t like.
Happy couples understand the meaning and importance of compromise. And they accept that any compromise will call for adjustment, adaptability and consequently, change. Change that might not be of their liking, but change that is necessary in order to keep the fires of their love burning brightly. And because they value their love so dearly, they accept change wholeheartedly even if it hurts. They put their pride in their pocket and show a measure of humility as they submit to the compromise agreement.
You don’t see this in lesser relationships. Spouses would rather remain entrenched in their ways rather than give an inch. And if and when they do bend, they do it with a scowl and a heavy heart that clearly says, “I give in, but I hate it.” This isn’t something that promotes love.
Loving couples do as little as they can do disrupt their relationship and everything in their power to enhance it. And they do this on a 24-hour basis. Always alert, always attentive. Their love demands it. – Bob Garon

Naggers (1 of 2)
Couples whose love has withstood the test of time and emerged happier and more meaningful than ever have a way of dealing with each other’s bad habits. They don’t nag because they have seen the futility of it all.
Naggers usually have right on their side. It’s difficult to argue with them, so they usually win the battle. Sadly, however, they rarely win the war. This is because the one nagged doesn’t listen and tunes out. This is why the nagger has to keep nagging endlessly. Her (or his) yakking is as ineffectual as water off a duck’s back.
Solid couples understand that nagging gets nothing done, but only exacerbates matters. They find other ways to bring about change. They cajole, compromise and gently prod. And often, unless the situation is serious, they simply keep silent and learn to live with it. After all, they know and accept that their love is imperfect and that this is one of those imperfections that comes with the whole package.
Look at couples whose marriages are not going well. Though the nagging is clearly ineffective and damaging to the relationship, they go on doing it. They are like the kamikaze pilot intent on destroying even if it means blowing oneself up.
Which brings me to the next strength that is somewhat similar. Strong couples agree to disagree. The reason why they were attracted to each other in the first place is because they are different.

Message of Butterflies' Wings
At that point, I was pondering whether there was justice from heaven that allows such tragedies to happen. But, even in my desperation, I knew that i wanted to believe in God and His love. So prayer is the one that ease my feelings. I fervently prayed every day especially before I went to bed.
I asked for a sing with butterflies, although I hadn’t heard of butterflies signifying the soul or spirit. I sometimes even asked for specific colors—blue, yellow and green butterflies.
My agony of being alone without someone on my side just passed. I was very heartbroken, and remained under. I doubted now if I have really lost my faith in God had He not done so, but I am more certain at that point of His love.
I believe now that He loves me more than I do ever love myself. And I also know that He loves me for He answered my prayer in my hour of need. He ended my suffering for being heartbroken. And I’m really grateful for what He did. I praise Him so much. I love you God!

One word can change everything . . . THANKS. (3)
My sister woke me up by holding my shoulder. I thought I was dreaming that time. She asked me to go with her. We went to the ICU. And then I saw my mom without a respirator and her eyes close. I smiled that time because I thought she got well. Why sister told me, “Mom is dead.” I came near her fast and hug my mom. I cried so much, as I didn’t saw my mom still breathing even only because of the respirator. Then my sister told me that I should go back to the room and wait her there. So I went there and continue my crying.
As I was waiting there, somehow, it was good that my mom was beside God now. She will not feel any pain anymore. And her sufferings were ended. I prayed to God and thank Him that He doesn’t let my mom suffered so much. And He didn’t allow us to decide to pull out the respirator. At least we will not have the guilt that why should we pull out the respirator. Thank you God. Thank you for everything.
