Lately, I notice that I have been having unhealthy thoughts and feeling spiritually dry. I have been trying to pray, but I easily get distracted. I thought it must have been that ‘time of the month’ kasi halos every month naman akong nakakaranas ng ganitong pakiramdam. But I should know better. It may be more…
Upon knowing the Truth, we may have the tendency to become self-righteous and condemning toward those who (we think) do not know and share this Truth. Some of us may have been correcting them harshly and accusingly rather than gently and lovingly. Ganito rin ako lalo na no'ng umpisa. I thought I just wanted people…
The first part of Katy Perry's song, "Roar" described so accurately how I used to be before it dawned on me that I've had enough. And I've got no one else to blame but myself. (If the following content will somehow resonate with you, I hope you will learn something here) I have just been…
I often hear others say, "Count your blessings". In my young mind, I thought my blessings are too many to count, so I didn't bother to count at all. LOL! Jinustify pa ang katamaran! 🤣 But growing up, I eventually realize the purpose and the benefits of being more mindful of the graces and the…

Blessed. My brothers and I are blessed that our father is still with us up to this day. Although he is in mid-70’s and has Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), he is still able to function well. Katulad ko, bunso rin ang tatay ko sa kanilang magkakapatid. Kaya siguro may mga pagkakapareho kami ng ugali…
Earlier this week, I lost my aunt. Before this week ended, I, myself became an aunt. A few days ago, I had been in a period of desolation. Now, it is time for consolation. One of my closest friends had said, whenever he receives a great blessing, he is grateful. But then, he can’t help…
One time, yung isa sa mga best friends ko, nagshare sa’kin tungkol sa mga ganap niya sa office, sa mga kliyente, sa mga projects na hinahandle niya. Because she is working in a field where she feels like she always has to put her best foot forward, at alam daw doon sa opisina nila na…
