The last weekend before school starts is a long one as the legal non-working Philippine Independence day was moved to June 9 from June 12 in order to compress the working day to a continuous work week. This could have attract mixed opinion from the practical and traditional people but I guess Filipinos have grown accustomed to this practice by the current government.

I personally favor this move for two reasons: 1) it does not break the working momentum, and 2) you can go on vacation because of the long weekend. But I guess the parent’s main concern this week is to complete their kids’ school supplies and uniforms. Expect traffics and a jam packed mall with this.

Anyway, enjoy going back to school dear students.

Students are now counting days before school starts. I always hear students wanting to get out of school and start working while those already working dreams of going back to school.

The day to work will eventually come and learning need not stop after school. Life itself is one big school ground were lessons are given every passing day.

The jungle often hides itself in the density of its own matter. As such, it is a place of great complexity and unknowing. For many of us, the metaphor it’s a jungle out there describes the unpredictability and potential threats of our world. To be in a jungle usually means you are on a quest for treasure, sacred knowledge, or other things kept in deeply covered and generally inaccessible places.

The danger that you feel about the jungle is also the reason that things of value are kept there. The difficulty in acquiring riches or wisdom heightens the appreciation of them. (Dense urban environments can be a metaphor of the jungle as well.)

The fountain of youth is a legendary spring that is said to restore the youth of anyone who drinks from it. Youth and immortality seem to be man’s consistent theme in stories like the philosopher’s stone, universal panaceas, and the elixir of life.

The pursuit now continues even beyond stories and myths. Science has devised a lot of way in order to obtain their own version of legend no matter how elementary they compare. Now, the fountain of youth is no longer drunk but is injected.
