For me, the steps below really works, sabi nga nila daig ko pa daw ang NBI investigator manghuli ng nagsisinungaling... But before you talk to your subject (sus NBI talaga hahaha), make sure that you gather enough info para di ka naman mapahiya hehehe!
Introduction
There are often cues and signs that someone may be lying. There may also be understandable reasons for the lie.
Steps
Step One
Look for body language that might indicate someone is lying, such as not looking you in the eye when speaking to you, being fidgety, or acting nervous or uncomfortable.
Step Two
Listen for inconsistencies in what the person tells you, such as different stories on different days, different time frames, mistakes in remembering details or mixing up details.
** another tip, try to ask questions non stop then go back to your 1st question. If his/her answer is different from the 1st one... something's wrong...
Step Three
Notice if the person steadfastly resists answering any questions. Extreme defensiveness could mean that he or she is trying to hide something.
Step Four
Notice if the person accuses you of lying or being deceitful when you really haven't been. This could reflect the other person's own underlying behavior, which he or she is projecting onto you rather than owning up to it.
Step Five
Listen to your gut and intuition. You may just know someone is lying. If you are not sure, don't jump to conclusions. Try to get some evidence to back up your hunch.
Step Six
Consider asking directly if the person has lied to you. Many people feel bad getting caught up in lies, and find it a relief to finally be honest.
Step Seven
Try to be understanding and listen to the person's reasons for lying. Was he trying not to hurt you? Was she afraid you would be angry, upset or disappointed?
Step Eight
Look at your possible role in having someone lie to you. Are you someone who gets so upset hearing the truth that others feel they can't be honest with you?

A letter to the one God has prepared for me..
I am wondering at this very minute if you are thinking of me. If like me, you are wondering what is taking us so long to find each other. Many times I thought I finally found you only to be disillusioned by the fact that my wait has not yet ended. I get up each morning hoping, dreaming, longing to meet you.
I am thinking of how we will meet. Would it be as romantic as the ones I've seen in movies? Or is it possible that I have known you all my life but we have yet to realize that we are meant for each other? Oh how I wish you were here right now because you are the only one who has the answers to all my questions.
Sometimes I ask myself if I have ever really known LOVE. I do not have the answer to that question either but I believe that, more often than not, we will never really know what love is until we find that right person. And since I have not found you yet, then maybe I do not really know what love is.
You just don't know how often I dream of finally knowing what it feels like to be in your arms. even at this very moment I am imagining how you will simply sweep me off my feet! perhaps I would be drawn to you by your smile, or your eyes, or maybe even how you manage to make me laugh by your silly little ways. I don't really know for sure but I am praying that God will help me recognize you when the right time comes. I think of all the pain that I have gone through and of how much I cried since the day I began my search. I just wanted you to know that I find strength in clinging onto my vision of the beautiful life ahead of me. The life I shall spend with you. In my mind and in my heart I know that you are worth all the pain and sacrifice.
After all, the tears have become a part of my life, and I believe that they are slowly washing away my flaws so that I would become perfect. Not perfect in its truest sense, but perfect for YOU! I wonder if you've gone through so much pain as well. I wonder if you've been hurt so many times along the journey. BUT my dearest one, please don't ever give up because I am right here... patiently waiting for you... I assure you that when we finally find each other, I would slowly heal those wounds by my love.
At night, I would look out my window and stare at the beautiful sky, hoping that somehow you are looking up and wondering about me too. I utter a silent prayer and send all my cries to the heavens above, thinking that in time they would reach you. And when I feel impatient, I just close my eyes and believe that you are on your way and that you are longing to see me as well. It's funny but when I finally fall asleep, it is still you I think of, for you are always in my dreams. It seems that for now, that is the only place where I can hold on to you. Long enough to tell you how much I love you. In my dreams you would kiss away my fears and wrap me with tour arms of love.
and this, all the more makes me want to wake up and face the new day ahead of me with hope that soon enough, you will no longer be a dream but a reality and once again I am assured that you are worth the wait. and when that time comes, everything will fall into its place, just as I had imagined, just as I had thought and dreamed, just as I believed it would be... by then I would simply look back and smile at all that I have gone through, in spite of the pain and amidst the simple joys of life. and I would be very thankful because they all led me to you!
In the meantime, take care of yourself foe me. Hold on to our dream and don't even think of letting go. Believe in your heart that we will find each other no matter what happens. God has planned the course and it is up to us to follow the directions. Don’t worry, don't be afraid about getting lost. God saw to it that all the roads, no matter which one you choose to follow, lead to me.

Ulirang Ina
Kagabi, meron ginawa ang mama ko na hindi ko inaasahan, at hinding hindi ko ito makakalimutan habang buhay.
Di ko man ito nasasabi ng harapan, pero gusto ko po ma malaman mo na napakaswerte ko at ikaw ang naging mama ko.
Di ko man po ito sa iyo nabigay ng personal... sana magustuhan mo po ang munting regalo ko para sa inyo.
I love you so much ma. Happy mother's day!
