PARING BOL-ANON IN THE WWW

It is no doubt our joy to become part of the WWW community as science and technology make advances in today's world of communication. Whereas in the not so distant past transmissions depended so much on human couriers between two post offices or were at the mercy of operators between two long distance companies or through automated machines taking calls from people somewhere in those offices... but now, with only a click of a mouse or what-have-you, one is right there in the midst of all these communication bonanza which I believe is at an all time high, what with the advent of these so-called Instant Messengers and Cam2Cam interaction between two persons from opposite side of the globe. Even. Wew! How fortunate are we to have made it this far or to what we initially thought was only possible in science fiction movies early in life, a sort of a bond movies in the 70s or 80s. Now, actually, we're in the middle of all these... and funny, we're also being dragged into taking part in all the other wonderful stuff the Internet Age has ushered right in front of us.

Welcome your Paring Bol-anon to the WWW and welcome to the world of the Paring Bol-anon's presence in your virtual realities.

PARING BOL-ANON REUNIONS

How exhilarating it is to get away - from work and ministry - and get another shot in the arm by some sort of renewal and refreshment one can only get by way of inter-personal relationships with people on the same journey in life. Being with brother priests, and friends within the circle, certainly gives that opportunity as well as the "rejuvenative vitamins" a priest needs to further the pathway he has taken in answer of that call. Personally I can only thank God and each and every brother priest for that special moment I was privileged to take part of and for the confirmation of my priesthood and ministry we all share together as "soldiers of Christ" in this wonderful battlefield of life. Lest I forget, the infinite laughs (as in bahakhak), the constant teases (Pitbals syndrome), the candid poses (UTube prospects), the exquisite food and drinks, the long-overdue sweats in golf and tennis, the late night caps, stories and beers, new friends along the way, the memorable city tour, the music, etc... but more importantly the time well-spent like a family... and if I ever missed something, still, I thank you!!!
