Hope One Day to Work Abroad is Just a Personal Option Not a Necessity

When Paul started his adventures on far away lands - some people found him as a dreamer. Others found him uncultured brute. His peers and friends described him as friendly animal and can kick you off when it is needed. But for Paul what the people were talking about him were just the downside of his true nature. Yes. Paul admitted that he sometimes acted as a wild beast. However, there were also people have admired him.

Paul on Pinoy Xtra - Arab News
While working, Paul also has devoted his time to write poems, essays, articles and stories of different subjects and themes. Paul found them interesting hobbies specially during his spare times. Also he found them as best medicines and effective ways to fight over homesickness. 

Paul said, "Hindi po biro ang lumayo sa ating mga pamilya. Hindi rin po madali na labanan ang lungkot. Ang paghahabi o pagsusulat po ng tula't kuwento ay nakita ko po na effective way to fight over homesickness. Sa paraang ito ay nagagawa kong paglaruan ang iba’t-ibang imosyon gamit ang mga salitang tumutumbok sa tunay kong damdamin at diwa. Kahit nasa gitna po ako ng problema, idinadaan ko po iyon sa paghabi ng tula sa ngalan ng pag-ibig." 

Mostly of his poems mga tula were written in Pilipino language. Below are sample of Paul's poem collections with subjects and themes are about life and some political issues happening on his country, namely:

​On January 4, 2009, the Editor of Pinoy Xtra, Arab News Mr. Rodolfo C, Estimo Jr. has featured Paul on their newspapers. Pinoy Xtra is an 8 pages - its contents are written in Pilipino language about life, adventures and other things important to the Filipinos in the Middle East and around the globe. Pinoy Xtra is printed every Sunday with the English Arab Newspapers in the Kingdom. This is a free eight pages provided by Arab Newspapers to its Pilipino readers. This Tag-alog newspapers is accepting contributions like poems, personal stories, news stories, business stories from Filipino writers and OFWs (Overseas Filipino Workers) from around the world. 

Paul said that Arab Newspapers - the number one English Newspapers in the Kingdom was the first to publish some of his letters to Editor that started in 1994. And he has become one of the contributors of Pinoy Xtra since its inception in 2004. And he has already published several poems or mga tula, letters to Editor and other Editorial pieces under the names Paul Pruel and Paulino O. Pruel. He said that both Arab Newspapers and Pinoy Xtra have inspired him to continue his writing hobby not only on print but also on online writing. 

Aside from Pinoy Xtra and Arab Newspapers, the Editor of an online website the OFWGuide.com has also featured Paul as Bayani Rin Ako! Featured OFW entitled: "Paulino O. Pruel: Things Get Better and Better". It was featured on May 20, 2009. The story was about Paul first 15 years on the desert. If interested to read the above story - you may visit the link: Things Get Better and Better. It is still available on their website. 


​I quote what Paul's message for the million OFWs in the world, "Alam natin kung bakit tayo ay nangibang bansa - iyon ay di lamang para sa ating mga sarili kungdi para sa ating mga minamahal na naiwan sa Pinas, ang mabigyan sila ng magandang buhay at kinabukasan. Huwag hayaan na madaig tayo ng homesickness at panghinaan ng loob. Maraming tukso sa ating paligid, pero labanan natin sila. Laging magdasal. Higit sa lahat mahalin natin kung anuman ang trabaho ang mayroon tayo ngayon."

Pangulong Duterte, Polaris Ng Mga Pinoy


Isa kang mamahaling hiyas na nakapulupot
Sa baywang ng sagradong balangaw
Ilaw mo’y liwanag ng malawak na kalangitan
Kumikinang kahit sa gitna ng karimlan...

Tulay ka ng mga nasasawi’t nasasaktan
Pinapangarap ng mga taong nagmamahal
Ika’y langis na hahaplos sa lahat ng sigalot
Na namumutawi sa loob at labas ng tahanan...

Matibay kang bantayog ng mabuting pamayanan
Taglay mo’y buhay at dakilang pag-asa
Para sa mundong puno ng hilahil at hinagpis
Ang masulyapan ka ay samo ng bawat isa...

‘Di matutularang regalong bigay ni Bathala
Pangulong Duterte, 
Polaris ng mga Pinoy!

9 Ways to Express The Feelings of Love

For me to say "I Love You" is very common and everyone has abusively used it to tell how much he/she loves his/her beloved one. My ways of expressing about my feelings of love to my beloved one are not really unique but I found them too fascinating.

Below are 9 ways I know to express my love to my beloved and to tell her how important she is to me, such as: You are -

The Hidden Knowledge on How to Make Money Through Google AdSense is No Longer a Secret

The hidden knowledge on how to make money through Google AdSense is no longer a secret. There are four major sources to making money through Google AdSense. If you applied for Google AdSense for your websites or for your blog sites - you better take note the following sources that make actual money for your websites or blog sites. They are what advertisers bid on when they buy your Ad-Space and also to understand the net users interactions that actually make you money. 

My Google AdSense Income as of January 25, 2017
The four major sources that make you money using the Google AdSense are as follows:

  • CPC
  • CPM
  • CPMAV
  • CPE

What is CPC? It means Cost-per-Click. It is the amount you earn each time a user clicks on your ad. The CPC for any ad is determined by the advertiser. Some advertisers may be willing to pay more per click than others, depending on what they are advertising.

What is CPM? It means Cost per 1000 Impressions. Advertisers running CPM ads set their desired price per 1000 ads served and pay each time their ad appears. As a publisher/owner of website or a blog site you will earn revenue each time a CPM ad is served to your web page or blog site page and viewed by a user. Take note: CPM ads compete against Cost-per-Click (CPC) ads according to Google AdSense Department. 

What is CPMAV? It means Cost per Mille Active View. This is another bid types, highlighting that advertisers now have a new way to bid on your ad inventory. This is currently referred to as Active View CPM in Google Internal Help. CPMAV are the bids that are being made on a viewable impression basis only. The CPMAV closing price has been much higher than CPM bids. Even with the lower CTR (ClickThroughRate) that has brought up Ad request RPM (Revenue per Thousand Impression). Active View metric might be number to keep an eye on if you hope to attract higher paying CPM rates.

What is CPE? It means Cost-per-Engagement. With this type of bidding, advertisers only pay when users actively engage with ads. For example: Advertisers pay for lightbox ads (a type of expandable ad that can expand to a very large size) on a CPE basis, which means that publishers/websites owners or blog sites owners generate earnings from lightbox ads when net users choose to engage with the ads by hovering over them for at least two seconds to expand the ads.

Remember this: Online writers or Online bloggers who are running their own websites or blog sites are considered publishers. You should enjoy this kind of online opportunity where you can actually earn money from publishing your written articles and other stuff to your owned websites or blog sites through Google AdSense. In addition, do not apply fraud just to make more money on Google AdSense. You will be punished or be banned from using Google AdSense. Always apply honesty to any business you are about to venture.

Ibang Trip Ito: Inibig Ko Ang Aking Likha: Buti Nalang Di Mukha ni De Lima

In my dream, she is the woman - My Heartbeats Blog

Habang ako’y nakadungaw sa bintana
Sa mata ko’y bumulaga si maganda

Katawan ay ‘tulad kay pepsi paloma

Paindak-indak siya’t patalon-talon...


Walang pakialam sa kan’yang paligid

Banaag ang ngiti sa kan’yang mga labi

Subali’t siya ay biglang sisimangot
At susundan ng kaniyang mga halakhak...



Mag-isa n’yang inaaliw ang sarili

Sa galaw ng maganda niyang katawan

Ako ay tuluyan nang nahiwagaan
‘Sang tanong sumagi sa aking isipan...



S’ya ba’y pinaglaruan ng kapalaran? 

At sumunod siya ay biglang lumuhod

Nakabukas ang dalawa niyang palad
Nagsumamo sa ‘di makitang kausap...



Sinilip ko siya’t aking pinagmasdan

Pinag-aralan ko ang buka ng bibig

Ang galaw ng mapupula niyang labi
Ang pilantik ng kaniyang mga daliri...



At galaw ng kaniyang paa at baywang

Nagmamakaawa na isayaw siya

At dalhin sa itaas ng kalangitan
At do’n siya mananahan bilang reyna...



Kasama ang mga ibon sa himpapawid

At kumpol-kumpol na maharot na ulap

Masaya silang nagsasayaw sa saliw
Ng malanding awit ng hanging habagat...



Subali’t hindi pa siya nasiyahan

Pati mga bituin ay gustong abutin

Yakapin, hagkan at angkinin gagawin
Niyang kuwentas, korona at porsilas...



Ang tindi ng kaniyang dating sa akin

Pati ako ay sa kan’ya nahumaling

Sa puso ko at isipa’y nagniningning
Alab ng pagsinta siya’y makapiling...



Nguni’t may pagitan sa aming dalawa

Sa ‘king isip siya’y buhay na malaya

‘Kahiya inibig ko ang aking likha
Nang ako’y napagod siya ay nawala!

Ang Daming Bumagsak Nang Rumagasa Sa Kapuluan Ng Pilipinas Ang Super Bagyong Digong

Halos magbigti sa galit at awa sa sarili ang mga taong dumanas sa bagsik ng super bagyong Digong - ang kanilang mga ari-arian at kabuhayan ay nangasira. Ang iba sa kanila ay nawindang ang pag-iisip dahil sa sobrang panghihinayang sa naglahong kabuhayan na kanilang inaruga, inalagaan at minahal ng matagal na panahon. 


Salamat po sa iyong pagdating Pangulong Duterte. Para po kayong isang Super Bagyong dumating sa buhay ng mga Filipino. Marami na po ang nabago magmula po ng kayo ay naging Pangulo ng Pilipinas.

Nagbagsakan ang ekonomiya ng mga corrupt na politiko, drug lords, pushers, holdapper, carnapper, kidnap for ransom, ibang kabuhayan ng mga oligarchs, mga gambling lords, mga e-games at e-bingos, ang ekonomiya ng mga kawatan sa custom at ang ekonomiya ng mga nagtatanim bala sa NAIA.

Bumagsak na din po ang mga illegal minings, ang ekonomiya ng mga smugglers, at mga ekonomiya ng mga corrupt sa gobyerno. Pati pag-iisip ng ibang senador bumagsak na rin, tulad na lamang kay Senadora Pangilinan - na planong e summon ang mga executives ng Facebook para maimbistigahan sa Senado dahil lamang sa mga fake news na kaniya daw nababasa sa FB.

Bumagsak na rin sa kaalaman ng mga Filipino ang planong pagkontrol sa Social Media at Internet nila CEO Rappler Maria Ressa at Senador Bam Aquino. Bumagsak din sa kalaman ng mga Filipino ang LeniLeaks - na may kinalamang pabagsakin ang pamunuan ni Pangulong Duterte. Bumagsak din sa kaalaman ng mga Filipino ang financer ng mga Yellows na si Loida Nicolas Lewis - na isang Fil-Am na may networth na tinatayang 600 million US Dollars.

Bumagsak din sa kaalaman ng mga Filipino ang tunay na kulay ni Senadora De Lima - na pinaniniwalaan na drug-protector ng mga drug-lords, pati ang kaniyang sexual fantasies ay bumagsak din sa kaalaman ng milyong-milyong Filipino - ang kaniyang hilig sa 'Saba'. Ganuon din bumagsak sa kaalaman ng mga Filipino na si Senadora Trillanes pala ay tinaguriang 'Sundalong Kanin'. 

Dahil sa lakas ng hanging Digong, bumagsak sa kaalaman ng mga Filipino ang malaking kasinungalingan - sa panahon ng dating administrasyon ni NoyNoy - ang sambayanang Filipino ay pinaniwala na ang ekonomiya ng Pilipinas ay gumanda. Pero iyon ay malaking kasinungalingan dahil ang sinasabi niyang paglago ng ekonomiya ng bansa ay sa mga diyaryo, mga pahayagan at sa mga malalaking telebisyong networks ng bansa lamang bumabandila.

Ang pinakamasakit pa – ang administrasyon ni Noynoy noon ay naging inutil para sugpuin ang illegal drugs sa bansa na sumira ng milyong-milyong  buhay at pangarap ng mga Filipino. Na naging sanhi ng paglaganap ng iba’t ibang krimen sa bansa. At paglaganap ang iba’t ibang paraan ng pagnanakaw ng kaban ng bayan. Ang bawa't sangay ng kaniyang pamahalaan ay pinamugaran ng mga kurap at kawatan na tauhan.

Bumagsak din sa kaalaman ng mga Filipino na ang simbahang Katoliko sa pangunguna ng ibang mga obispo, mga pari at madre ay mas pabor pala sila sa drugs, crimes and corruption sa bansa.

Dahil sa bagyong Digong, unti-unting lumilinis ang ating kapaligiran. Unti-unting nababanaag ang pag-asang na isang araw tayo ay magigising na ang bansa natin ay magiging drug-free at ang sambayanang Filipino ay mamumuhay na matiwasay sa bawa't segundo, minuto, oras, araw ng kanilang buhay.
