Said I love you...but I lied

You are the candle, love's the flame
A fire that burns through wind and rain
Shine your light on this heart of mine
Till the end of time
You came to me like the dawn through the night
Just shinin' like the sun
Out of my dreams and into my life
You are the one, you are the one


Said I loved you but I lied
'Cause this is more than love I feel inside
Said I loved you but I was wrong
'Cause love could never ever feel so strong
Said I loved you but I lied


With all my soul I've tried in vain
How can mere words my heart explain
This taste of heaven so deep so true
I've found in you
So many reasons in so many ways
My life has just begun
Need you forever, I need you to stay
You are the one, you are the one


You came to me like the dawn through the night
Just shinin' like the sun
Out of my dreams and into my life
You are the one,
you are the one


Said I loved you
But this is more than love I feel inside
Said I loved you....But I lied

The Bats at Monfort Bat Cave

Can you imagine nearly or perhaps more than 2 million bats in a small parcel of land that is barely 500 meters in diameter? You can’t, can you? Well, there’s no need to imagine. You can see all these in the Monfort Bat Cave and Conservation Park in Brgy. Tambo, Babak District, Island Garden City of Samal.

The Monfort bat cave is the only sanctuary for these poor, misunderstood creatures. All around the island, the bats are treated as delicacy and, ironically, as threats and pests to agricultural crops. Sadly, most of the bats in other roosting sites have been forced to abandon their homes due to these cruel human activities. However, the residents of the area are not to blame as well. This only happened because the denizens of the island do not fully understand the vital role that these bats play in maintaining the delicate balance of the ecosystem.

In countries that have active bat conservation projects, with the help of other international agencies, the residents themselves have become the vanguards of these nocturnal creatures. Both humans and bats are now living in harmony, each providing benefits for the other. This kind of relationship is what we hopefully aim to achieve in our country.
