Virtual Community is real community



       As we all know the advancement of technology has become a means  communication of some people especially to the youth in the present time. It is there means communicating to somebody who is close them. It is a way of giving oneself to the other through virtual reality as an expression of friendship or love. I myself have this kind of attitude of communicating through virtual communication because I can express about thoughts towards to the person rather than facing the person. Like what I have written here, giving my thoughts about the “Virtual Community is Real Community”. Moreover, this could be an helpful tool to communicate someone in order to be in touch with them. Sometimes it can be a tendency of dwelling to much in the virtual world because it may harm the actual relationship of knowing each other. But if the person expresses his feelings through virtual communication, well, I cannot judge him because he has his own way of communicating others.
   Thus, virtual community has its way of giving people to communicate others. this a way of presenting him/herself of who he/she is. For me as a seminarian I also make use of the virtual communication in my future ministry but I must do my duties also not only for one thing but has a whole. It must be holistic because in actual communication also everything that you experience helps you to know yourself, and your purpose in life. In addition, In relating to other people you must be with them.      

A THING CALLED LOVE



“As the Father loves me, I also love you. Remain in my love”, this is some of the lines in John 15: 9-17. He reminds me that I must remain in his love to inherent Gods love through Jesus Christ. As I love him, I also love others in order to keep the will of God to me that the will that I may love with his commandments. 
In the reading of John 15: 9-17, it expresses the love of God to me and to others. As I love God, He Commanded me to share or spread the love to my brothers and sisters especially to those who need help physically and spiritually. When I was still in the seminary I share my love to the seminarians of being available to them. There was also a time in the seminary when I donated my blood to the sick person without any return. I saw the guardian of that sick person cried because of the great joy that I helped his sick patient. I felt inspired of the love of the guardian to his patient because he sacrificed for the sake of his patient. God’s love can be given to me in a different way. I will just do my best to cherish this love for the betterment of my life.

As a faithful, I am obliged to respond His commandments because it is a journey to become a holistic being. I am committed also to follow his commands especially to attain my goal to become a priest someday.
