    " May pakpak ang balita, may tenga ang lupa"

    It's good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it's good to check up once in a while to make sure you haven't lost the things that money can't buy.

    How about this:

    "Ang lumalakad ng matulin kung matinik ay malalim."
    "Matalino man ang matsing napaglalamangan din."
    "Kapag may isinuksok,may madudukot"

    english translation please
    Don't make promises when you are in JOY. Don't reply when you are SAD.
    Don't take decisions when you are ANGRY. Think twice, Act wise. BE happy.

    Thanks for your posts guys and girls!! I read it with great interest! Don't understand the tagalog.. I've been reading at out loud which has been a source of great amusement to my filipina wifey! (My tagalog sounds so funny we are thinking of putting it on youtube! haha)

    There are 7 Planes Of Existance:

    7 — Material Plane: The earth, where you are right now.
    6 — Plane of Forces
    5 — Astral Plane
    4 — Mental Plane
    3 — Too mysterious to describe.
    2 — Too mysterious to describe.
    1 — Too mysterious to describe.
