Recently, I came across a post that says, "You can burden me. Our friendship is not fragile." (by Jervy Fermin). That hit so hard. I wish I could say that to other people, too, o kahit man lang sana sa mga kaibigan ko. However, I am currently having a hard time staying kind when I…
My one-year stay in the convent was a jumpstart to my healing. In the initial stage of formation, venturing deeper into self-awareness has been pivotal and helpful for me to become aware of the issues that I did not know were there and those I didn't think were still there. Becoming aware of those unresolved…

A few days ago, I watched a virtual book launch of Filipino authors where some of my batchmates who are first-time authors launched their very first book (I'm so proud of them!).

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…
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 just watched a movie on Netflix called, "God's Not Dead" and I was so touched by the humble boldness of the lead character who chose to defend to his Philosophy professor that God is not dead. I can't imagine being in the same situation that he was. With all the pressure coming from all…
