Missing Noisy Halls

And this week came and went. I have been absent this week because the preparations for our house blessing amidst work and having an 8-year old boy in the house actually takes time, which I first thought I could just wing it. This week, we finally completely unpacked from our move 3 months ago; we’ve [...]

My Life in My Hands

In my own way of dealing with my personal turmoil, I pray. I have been praying for direction. I have been praying for a path. And I always say that whatever the Lord tells me, I will follow in a heartbeat. When I see that burning bush, without a doubt, whatever it says, I will [...]

This post was written when one of the most influential and talented personalities in the Philippines, FrancisM, passed away last year. A year ago today, one of the biggest personalities passed away.

Burning Bush

Moses had it easy. He had a burning bush. The message was clear. His path was drawn and all he needed to do was muster all the courage he had to follow the steps laid out for him. Yes, he lived in trying times and he had to lead the people out of Egypt. The [...]

Shooting for the Moon

I believe I was in high school when I first read this quote: Shoot for the moon, even if you miss, you’ll be among the stars. I cannot even remember where I read that. I only know that I memorized it. Memorized it and since then, I have tried to live it. My nature dictates [...]

Moving Posts: House Rules

I am moving this post from my old blog and I realized now, 14 months after our engagement, almost 5 months after our church wedding, we have fallen quite short of these house rules. Chef and I have disagreements, as a lot of couples out there. The degree of my temper can go as high [...]
