productive holiday

' used to hear my mother say before, on long weekends: " oh unproductive day(s)again " 

i wish she's still alive today... for many, many of my weekends and "non-working holidays"

are spent "productive". indeed, there is a time for everything as the song of songs

have written.

happy 150the birthday, dr. jose rizal! that is why it was declared a non-working holiday yesterday.

(and ma, rest awhile. you have done a good job we'll be seeing each other again.)

happy father's day---dad. and to all the wonderful fathers.
