F-orget all bitterness and move on
O-ther’s failure gives one to two-ways lesson
R-elationship is drab without challenges
G-rowth hails from discoveries of one’s weaknesses.
I-nscrutable depth of opinions must keep us insensate
V-irtues and values are divine to perpetuate.
E-rase spotted anger, pains, scars…let them go
N-estle in God’s forgiving hands who loves us so.
E-xemplify our Savior’s humility and generousness
S-hake off the virus of pride, acceptance bring lightness
S-hare peace for our freedom and pure happiness

Monocrostic (Birthday of Anchealen C. Dianing)
(C)hange is constantly happening in life
(H)appiness, sadness, all feelings involved
(A)rranging sights, places, people to meet
(N)othing stays permenantly, exactly the same
(G)rowth occurs, gifts are received with lessons
(E)verlasting is the love within, embracing it all

G-rowth in divine wisdom
H-as made you mature;
E-ven though life is hard,
N-o way will you yield to pressure.
B-ehold the divine wisdom,
E-arly eighteenth of November;
N-either darkness nor lies
J-ustifies the unbeliever.
A-llow the truth to teach
M-an about God's kingdom;
I-t spiritually sets soul free,
N-ow seek the divine wisdom.
A-bound in real love,
N-either in hate nor in anger;
G-rowth of the greatest thing
I-s unprecendented
E-ver.
B-e abounding in real love,
U-sing your well-shaped heart;
S-how your sincere kindness
T-o let the harmony start.
A-bound in real love,
M-iss not its blissful way;
A-im to feel it deep inside,
N-ovember seventeenth Friday,
T-he next thing you know, you are embraced by God above;
E-verlasting life is in store, if you abound in real love.
L-ong cold Friday night
H-as vanished underneath;
O-ne new dawn has broken,
R-ising sun meets the
Z-enith.
P-ouring rain and fog fade,
E-leventh of February;
L-et Saturday sky shine
I-n front of the morning glory.
G-rowth of an infant
R-equires a parent so mild;
O-n the day of your birth, I remember you as a child.
G-regg rose not from Rio,
R-ealizing the uncovered truth;
E-ven if he looked like Latino
G-reat was the place of his
G-rowth.
D-etermined Gregg gave it all,
E-xerting each and every effort;
L-eading a life toward victory, bringing to him some sort of comfort.
R-isen from the Philippines
O-n September twenty-second;
S-uccessful Gregg was glad,
A-scending from far eastern nation.
R-isen not from beautiful Brazil,
I-nstead from province of mango;
O-riginated from Zambales, Gregg rose not from Rio.
Being Human Contest
Sponsor: John Hamilton
Barely a matured lady I wondered how I can grow to be complete
Every day I wish to feel as ideal as I can without being too confident
Inside I know I too can be like most of society, inspired and whole
Next as humans we are created to bring repose and collectiveness
Growth within our merit can make us sure we can believe in ourselves
Heard only the way a human being can decipher, I see others so
Unheard; if only they could see all the benevolence they carry freely
Maybe there is a way for us to see our integrity with virtuous morality
After praying I realize we all sustain love, hope and true forgiveness
Now I see that the goodness in us can generate flawless harmony
