I spoke to my Mama today! 'Tears & unfell tears' filled the spaces but we spoke all the same.
The woman loves me like crazy; believes in my like crazy!
As for "touching the world; fixing it to more tears-of-joy"; she spotted that in me, really early. It's a tough route and she knew it.
My dad took that route and he crumbled. We watched it, we watched it; but she knew "that route" to be my route as well and she relegated her feelings, to let me take it!
Today, when she said "Terry" again, she said them with fell tears!
Earlier today, i took a video call, that i was afraid to take. I didn't want to look at my mama's sore face and not be physically there to pat it. I love her like crazy!
This woman is special! She bore me but every time she says "Terry", it is obvious, that she lets other mamas have me too!
Fellas go love your mama. Read this to understand what i mean!
In the communities, as a young boy, it used to be "Terry", "Terry" everywhere and she noticed it.
Even as a kid, people spoke greatly of me! I had sharp shoes on; i did loving stuff; people saw something!
Well, people would called my mama "Mama Terry" too and my dad was "Baba Terry"; everywhere!
My pupsy was a beautiful man too! A huge man and there was something about him and you would feel it. These things have nothing to do with black-or-white; fine-or-ugly; be you black-or-white; fine-or-ugly, you would feel something when you around this man!
His simple handshake means everything!
He was also an intensely good man!
Even likely dislikers of good, knew this!
There used to be armed robbers when i was younger and they would always visit the large compound in which we lived in and they would raid 'house to house' and somehow they would always skip our house.
Prayers helped!
We always had a big hole in our rusted metal gate as well, yet, these robbers will spend hours, trying to wreck the metal gates or windows of the houses beside us, to break in!
They would carry an entire car engine (there is an old car engine always laying around in the compound and the robbers knew these details, for these robbers come from around the hood) and they'll keep hitting at these other metal gates and windows all night, to break in; when they could just crawl easily into our house.
Next, day we would walk the streets and it will be "Baba Terry" everywhere, for he was a good man. Many people had "kept his change".
As he walked past places, disputes were getting settled.
Hahaha, i used to be the proud Terry by his side. I was short and he was giant; now i am tall.
He never got to know of steemit, but he was whale by every standard.
Even when he got dead broke, "Baba Terry" were the words on the streets, still!
In Manila, Philippines, i am not with family, neither i have been around them for ages and there have been a ton of times, when i didn't have a dime!
Plus, people here would constantly think i have loads of money, but don't i have money? "Oh i do!"
Because, i would still tell you to keep the change!
And people will instantly say, "Terry, they are cheating you; they are exploiting you" and here is what i say in return;
These tiny good deeds can even save my life tomorrow!
And if someone is dead bent and wants to makes his entire ambition about exploiting me of 20 pesos, then perhaps i can afford that too, while i shoot for moon!
Yes, i have been object of many not-so-good things here but i stay staunch when it comes to loving still.
I am alive!
Love Me
You don't have to have nothing, to love like crazy. You simply need to be a hefty dreamer and love like crazy. Love is not just a feeling, it is strong like crazy!
Now, this route is dead hard!
You may need genes, specially cut out for this route; because the world is cruel! So not everyone has to go this exact route and but you can improvise!
We can improvise!
"Love the person, next to you!"
Yes, loving a stranger out there is testimonial, so go for it!
If you can't find a stranger to love, love me!
Entertain freedom when you love me!
Relegate reservations when you love me!
I got stronger today, so let's go!
Move we must!
Below is my ringtone for today as i speak to "setbacks". Basically, i can't see "setbacks", so this is to imaginary "setbacks", if they exist:
Helm what u think you can.
But helm nothing pertaining to me.
Let your wits stay captive in your thoughts.
Keys untouched.
Cos' the Cragger of all goals.
Is captain of this ship.
No anchor, endless sail.
"Morever, morever, moreover"
Is the constancy with which
You should sleep to my attainments
This (my) goal is concave
Your liquid schemes will only slide over
The Maker of orangutans, I'm his pot
What have u made?
Your existence? Lighter than fragments in my thoughts.
Do Look me eye to eye
Say you are not envious of hearts
Hearts with peace.
Tell me your not a fan of my met-goals
Resist for once, this once.
A gymed face toward goodness; my goodness!
Prince of persia? I'm that un-circumventable cessa, Princessa!
Number 5 is far better than S
No thanks but a heaving plea
This goal, gravity is letting it float
This particular goal, every wind vane supports
So this time, bikini-up & go have a tan!
an endless tan!
Dear Steemian Family, power up, let's go, for move we must!
Your Boy Terry

@sunnylife potatotized me & you with some love!
And you got me all smiles and "awwwwing" when I had been with wet eyes just a few moments back....being confused and unhappy and plan tired about not getting much from my life like i want to....stumbling on your post put some smile on my face n m grateful...keep loving up and on Terry ....just keep on
Awwwww... Good that the post put a smile on you!
I am so so so glad about that. Read my last post
i will definitely do that..
lol am so sorry... it's just a habit that my friends like to do, I don't understand why @surpassinggoogle.. what is the maze of this? but you are so creative! hahaha wow!
Proud FILIPINOS!!!! <3
Those words of yours made me feel "Motherly love" i feel love of my mothers voice, calls me her most favourite beautiful name in a beautiful manner while smiles filled her faces.... omg you are so good @surpassinggoogle you made memories flows , how dad will throw me into air and caught me with loads of kisses .......... Joy overwhelmed me because i am going to have a beautiful day full of smiles
You gave me the word of the day ;
Mahatma Gandhi
I think everyone has the capacity to love and actively wants to love, but some are scared to love, fear misinterprets love as weakness and finds reason to justify this.
Very motivational piece, even with nothing but a dream and love you seem like someone with much more than you physically possess. Cool poem too.
So on point on every front
Exactly, we all need to be loved and we need to love, but we have choose the cruelty of what is in others. We have studied it and mastered and we preach it, it appears to be normal.
I met this old man, his 73 now am 23. i was off campus for four months and when he saw me. He looked at me, maybe he thought i would act like any other student and just ignore him passby after all i dont lose anything. But boy, when i got close i felt it was so heavy i gave him a hand shake and we just hugged for some time. This feeling is the sweetest and will always stay in my heart. What makes it special is like my white grandfather, friend, colleague, wonderful lecturer. I realised despite the race, color, tribe, we all humans and need to be loved.
@surpassinggoogle thanks for letting us (me)know one can choose to love unconditionally and the fruits from such love are the finest. There is so much love in our hearts, i think we need to let loose and accept to be hurt and love back.
We all have the ability.
So touching @surpassinggoogle... Who wouldn't want to love a stranger? You showed me that love even when you didn't know me... My first 'heavy gift' from steemit was from you... Yes i know why i chose the world 'heavy gift'... You're a blessing to many!
Cute pictures... Keep being strong from them.
💝💝💝💝💝
More to come in due time. You are on my mind. You don't know that enough yet
Salamat, lol, Google gave me that! Gracias!
Kosi wahala
Hahahahahaha... Nice one
@sweetestglo-eu shaybi you know that you are my best friend
Lol, yes na @ewuoso!
u get mouth. steem on
Look at what you did to me. You made me teary-eyed while reading through this.Haha I can feel the love and the warmth. Your parents are wonderful! you are very proud of them but I'm sure that they're feeling the same thing towards you because you grow to be like them. You have a kind heart and that's what's special about you. Please continue to be a blessing to others. ❤
Tears aren't waste.
Terry-eyed? Special!
Thank you
Haha yes love that! Tears of joy it is. 😁☺️ Wishing you happiness as always!
Dear Terry, First Off - It's sad to know about your story. You love you father, mother and family very much as it's depicted in your writing - though not the exact representation of your feelings for them. I don't know much about the history of Philippines but it's true that good and bad people are everywhere. Those robbers vs your father or in today's scenario, it's you serving the humanity in general. I've have been curious to know your story but I was waiting for the right time. It's good that you shared this with us all. Though there is still some ambiguity and I want to learn more about it. May be, I missed something.
The world is a dangerous place and we see more negativity and less positivty in it.
Anyway, this path of your father and all the good human beings has always been difficult and it will be the same for you. However, you're a blessed soul so you will be able to travel through it.
Steem On!
You didn't miss anything. You are so onpoint with the ambiguity part. The story itself will come out in due time but only so that this story, however sad, teaches, upbuild and strengthens others
I see. So, the ambiguity part was on purpose? Can't wait to read the full story. My curiosity is touching its heights.
Yes soon. I have a new post. You may want to participate
it's a wonderful story and it's something i was thinking aout today! i have post an article about Water Lantern Festival a bit earlier, it's an event where people can make a wish and send a lantern onto water with it so it would come true... and one of the wishes was "Love", and i thought, it's not complicated to have love in your life, love the person next to you!
Hahaha yes. Very uncomplicated
The narrative of life that is exceptionally touching, ascent from affliction is a thing we generally need to experience, some are effective and some are not, ideally your days are enjoyable. @surpassinggoogle
Top notch
Hi @surpassinggoogle, It was one of the best emotional blog I ever read. You can't believe while reading the words, tears were came in my eyes several times. What a writer you're man???
Great job dome man, and no doubt you're a true boy of your Mama. You always come with great stuff, but this is matchless, as its all about "MOTHER". I just want to share this poster only for you @surpassinggoogle:
source
Keep smiling & Stay blessed!
Cos you are awesome human, that's why tears flowed
Might be you are right @surpassinggoogle, but indeed you desrve lots of love only due to your generosity. You're the only one who commented on every sigle comment with an upvote of reasonable value. Stay blessed man!
Thank you JAWAD
Welcome anytime @surpassinggoogle!
I am sorry you have to go through all that. And i am more sorry that you have to use your sad story as motivation for others. I said you have a heart of gold. I meant it and i wasnt just saying that to tease.
Most times when we see someone probably dressed in nice clothes and driving a big car. We tend not to bother about what the person has gone through to get to where he is. We just interpret the physical things we see. Though on the outside the person might be happy but on the inside might be a person that has gone through a lot of struggles to get to where he is. But we dont know that and sometimes we do not even bother. How can we even bother? It us the human nature in most of us.
But
You have a loving mum and i have a loving mum too. We just need to find a lasting happiness for these women for their love, care, courage and strength. But my dad................hmmmmm. Well i think i will just say nobody is perfect and everybody deserves to be loved no matter what they have done.
Love them both. No loss!
Do i have a choice. They are the reason i am able to have this conversation with you
By the way, the post hit me so hard that i kind of made a new post on its basis, referred to it, talking about the awesome personalities one gets to meet in steemit... Thank you once again
One of the most frequently asked questions and one that many people have M of resolution to is. No one can real ly define it. Many have tried to describe it based on a feel they experience , but we can tell you this: Sexual love life story life is not a touch sensation . Lovemaking is a decision that we brand . Love, unlike notion , do not come and go; dear corlot and commits itself to one individual through the craft commodity cape ness and through the bad . Without committedness , dear cease to exist. A committedness filled dearesidual is what differentiates kinship that personal identification number apart when clock clip s get a sharpness rough with the man kinship that continue to strive even when life bend them upper side down. Many of us have opinion s about sexual honey life and romance which actually prevents us from making intelligent selection when it comes to dear . Love myth , we birdcall it. Let's take a look at the three deadliest ones and band it straightaway . Myth #1 - True romantic passion conquers all. As long as you're in dearest , you can get through anything in life. Having this belief prevents you from dealing with real human relationship line . You will end up trouncing yourself up emotionally whenever things do turn tartness as you depend everything on this 'feeling' of dear you have towards your better half . Trueness : Latinian language is not enough to shuffle a relationship body of work . What will get you through the hood metre are compatibility and commitment that you both plowshare together. A good groundwork and forte will make a wedding last. Latinian language is simply the icing on the cake that is already wonderfully Delicious . Myth #deuce - You'll know true love at first quite a little . True love doesn't happen in an jiffy . It is crunch that smash you at first sight. Be careful. Confusing crush for true love can make you ignore the rest of the relationship. Not only that, you may also young woman the chance for the real and lasting love. Truth: True love happens after time has passed, after you have seen the good and the not so good share about your past
@surpassinggoogle
Thank you for feelings, love and effort
your welcome . @surpassinggoogle

I wish I could give you a hug.
True.... He deserves it. Content 100%
I know
a virtual hug from me to you
Just made my eyes water. You're a good kid, @surpassinggoogle !
You are awesome human. Even Jesus gave way to tears. He knew he resurrect Lazarus tho
A genuine person needs way more than love! I ran out of words. You inspire me every time, and of course most of us!
Run back into words by hopefully participating in my last post. Share too
When I celebrate my birthday and mum greets me 'happy birthday', I always joke her that she's wrong it's not only my birthday but also her 'labor day' that we celebrate. I might not be the kind of person that speaks love but I understand the feeling very well. And I think that love between a mother and her child is one of the strongest forces in this vast expanse we call universe. An invisible yet inseparable connection. Thank you sir for reminding me a very important thing. And that poem of yours is simply awesome. Good luck to us and God bless.
Jehovah bless us
"You don't have to have nothing, to love like crazy. "
So true brotha! I was so happy to see you supporting my friend @daudimitch after the Irma disaster!
I LOVE YOU 2 TERRY!
Stay such an honest person, and keep producing all the good for our community!
I already told you people like you make this world a better place!
God bless!
Hahaha thank you!
Jehovah God bless!
Mahh Man!:))
Hey bro... You make me cry again... ☺ thank you for listening to me and your advice. Great things are what you have to say to me and I am encouraged to continue. From now on, I will expand my agenda. And if I have other questions, I will consult you.
thank you,
@kennyroy
Great. Everytime you cry, resolve anew.
Getting back up is tough but you made it T, lets go kick some Steem-Butt🤗
Hahaha funny man.
Hey Terry! Your mum is beautiful with an angellic heart. You know that feeling of love that makes you cry, that is how i felt with your post. Guess i was carried away and called you Terry. Sometimes i wish my parents dont die, cos i am scared if anyone would love me as they do when they are gone.
Sorry about your parents. Hang in there, there will be beautiful times ahead. Life can be very complicated really. Look at my last post and participate freely. Shed more tears too as you participate
A very piercing story @surpassinggoogle, reading your post I was convinced that your love for the mame is sincere and her love for you, her Terry is also selfless and it deserves attention and respect! Today, all of us have learned a lot about you and about your life and I increasingly understand that you are a man of sparks and open to us. Thank you for your attention to us and our business. By the way, an excellent ringtone :)
Sweet comment. You took time to feel and grasp
Thank you, @surpassinggoogle, I think we all need to try to penetrate the meaning and thoughts of the person who leaves a message for us, only so we can be on the same wavelength with him and answer the message correctly!
No doubt
Mums are very special people God created to look over us, no love will ever be greater than the love of a mother to her child, if we all could love the next person next to us like crazy, then the world would be a better place..let's show some love like our friend @surpassinggoogle
Most times I actually say that life is unfair the way it dishes us very unpleasant meals. But you know what? You are a survivor and with a heart of gold, you are yet to go places.
I believe you
Thank you so much ma'am and I look forward to more of your of your posts
Just when I thought I have bigger problems then on a comment you told me that you'd post about yours. Reading this made me sad but made me smile as well. Keep moving! You are an inspiration to many. 💖
Sometimes it is not about the size of the problem. If you are deep, with hefty dreams etc, you simple suffer more.
Beautiful as always. I got here by my own choice, stayed for love. Finally was able to do a community service where I was able to talk briefly about Steemit. This is my first memory of you in this platform. You once said that "a better way to help is get them into Steemit". Now once is not enough for sure.
Will continue sharing the love where I can. I may not come close to your big loving heart, but will go on trying. Thanks for always being an inspiration. Poverty is no reason to not love, pain is no reason to not love, no reason is enough to not love.
On point
Hey Terry my brother,
it's so good to see you blogging and your positivity in your Post.

The story of life that is very touching, rise from adversity is a thing we always want to go through, some are successful and some are not, hopefully your days are fun. @surpassinggoogle
Thank you for awesome well-wishes. There will be good times Jehovah's willing
The part that touches me the most is how you talked about your mom. I could feel a lot of love and it reminded me of my own mom. I love her so much it breaks my heart when she cries. She had a stroke a few years ago. I die each time she tells me she's already tired of living. I do my best to make her happy, to let her know that we, her family, is worth living for. Thanks @surpassinggoggle for all the love you gave in this post.
I got touched by your comment in return. Hold her close, love her. And even when you can't give as much as your intentions, make your intentions known to her still. She will understand still
I will do my best to make her feel loved. Thanks @surpassinggoogle. Now I know why many users love you. Your words are truly touching and inspiring.
