Poetry has been with us every day, everywhere. Songs are a form of poetry. The Bible's Books of Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Song of Songs are all poetic in nature. Epics like Beowulf are also poetry. That is why poetry has been part of our lives, with or without us knowing it. One of the unique forms of poetry in the modern generation is the reverse poetry. Reverse poetry is a type of poetry that can be read from top to bottom and have a certain meaning; and can also be read from bottom to top and have a different and opposite meaning. In this book, Mark Edrada presents his technique in writing a reverse poem. Alongside with his techniques are the reverse poems created by different authors. Be learned and challenge yourself to create a reverse poetry.

For centuries, the Chinese have been intermarrying with inhabitants of the Philippines, resulting in a creolized community of Chinese mestizos under the Spanish colonial regime. In contemporary Philippine society, the “Chinese” are seen as a racialized “Other” while descendants from early Chinese-Filipino intermarriages as “Filipino.” Previous scholarship attributes this development to the identification of Chinese mestizos with the equally “Hispanicized” and “Catholic” indios. Building on works in Chinese transnationalism and cultural anthropology, this book examines the everyday practices of Chinese merchant families in Manila from the 1860s to the 1930s.

Life is all about intersections. Living is where sorrow meets joy, where pain encounters ecstasy, where the weakness of the flesh is buoyed by the strength of faith, where love conquers all doubts and betrayals. Marriage is for better and worse, for richer and poorer, in sickness and health; it is for life and death. Spirituality is the arduous integration of lifes dispositions and tendencies, of ones urges and habits, for the whole to reach out in transcendence to ones fellow human beings and to God.
