speech as Palipasan wins PEBA 's Top Ten Blogs

Thank you Lord!!!

The first three words I have uttered after I learned from my attending families in the PEBA Awards Night. Palipasan was voted as PEBA's 6th winner on PEBA 2009's Top 10 Blog Awardees.

It is such an honor knowing that I was competing with 36 other nominees most are best blogs and best writers in the blogging realm.The satisfaction of winning is so immense that until now as my wall clock here in Doha is about to strike 12 midnight, my mind is still fully awake as I savor the glory of winning.

Tremendous thanks to my blogging friends in Kablogs who have encouraged me to join PEBA 2009, to my readers, and followers who never gets tired of reading my post and to my regular commenters who always leaves their trail behind my comment box. And my deepest gratitude to my friends, classmates/batchmates, relatives and unknown generous people who have contributed to Paliapsan's 561 votes and to the bold predictions made by my friends Reymos and Scofiield, Jr, maraming salamat po sa inyong lahat.

Lastly, I would like to thank the Organizers and volunteers of PEBA, Inc., for honoring and recognizing the talents of Global Filipino bloggers, thank you for believing in the talents of the OFWs,

This award is a recognition, affirmation and challenge. Recognition - for a time spent and a life well lived during 2009. An affirmation for the worthy causes in bringing God's word in the hearts of my readers albeit unpopular options taken and challenge to do more and be better.

I am sharing this award to my family who have always supported my blogging passion, my wife Enor; my son Jason; my daughter Geeka and my dearest sister Tessie who have represented me and Palipasan in the PEBA Awards Night.

Congratulations to all the PEBA 2009 Winners.

Life is Beautiful, let us continue our blogging passion in bringing inspiration, joy and peace to our Diasporic community and to the world.

Maraming salamat po at nawa'y magkasama pa po tayo sa PEBA 2010.
