No secrets

                                "... justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts..."

Udo (scratches aluminum screened door)

Us     : Gawas ka, Doy? (opens door) Ayaw pangihi sa tanom, ayaw sa deck, ayaw...

Udo (takes his time to sniff around after urine-hosing down a verdant pot)

Us      : Udo, Udo. Sulod na, Udo.

Udo (watches the street, snout resting on the grills until we, exasperated by the waiting, close the door then he goes up the steps, sits before the door, and barks once)

Us       : Hasta ka, senyorito. Sulod na, sulod na (grumbles but opens the door)

Udo (enters and ambles to the kitchen, the day's lesson on obedience finished; the student, average as usual)

Great and small

"He who humbles himself will be exalted."
