‘Into The Woods’ Experience
It’s two days before the date I chose for the ‘Into The Woods’ musical here in the Philippines. After browsing numerous posts about it, I ended up here. I don’t know why. Maybe I am just that excited. Been a fan of musicals but I only watch them in movies, as watching musicals in theatres are expensive. The first play I watched in a theatre was a gift from my late husband, which I went to with him. It was at RCBC Makati, a musical play with Nikki Gil in it called Sweet Charity. But yeah, I will be finally watching again in a theatre, this time, alone. I am…

Turning 40 After Loss: A Story of Fear, Faith, and Quiet Hope
40 years of existence. I was hoping for a kaboom! A sudden shift in your existence. Life shouting, “Hooray! Welcome to life!” Because as they say, “Life begins at 40!” I’ve heard that so many times throughout the years, and I guess I believed it. Or at least, I wanted to. I always pictured turning 40 as this powerful moment. That it would feel like a celebration. A reward. A chapter where things fall into place. At this age, we’re told we should feel wiser, more confident, more grounded. We should know who we are, own our space in the world, or embracing aging gracefully, society tells us that 40…

April Fools’ Day
The first of April will no longer be an April Fools’ Day, for us, at least. I think there are no other blog titles that can suffice for what I will share this time; so be it. I am also not sure if my readers (if any) have already found this blog. The previous domain has expired, and I haven’t announced in my socials that I have a new domain. I guess it’s safe to write our story here. Yes, it was 7 months later. Am I okay? Have we moved on? No, we’re not okay. No, we haven’t moved on. I’m not even sure if I can finish this,…

Top 5 Wishes For My Son
Merry Christmas! Yes, it’s Christmas today and looking at social media posts, I saw a lot of ‘What’s your wish?’ or ‘What do you want to receive?’ Instead of asking that to myself, I wrote the top 5 wishes I have for my son when he grows up and can decide for himself. That he accepts Jesus as his Lord and Savior Accepting Jesus as his Lord and savior is a guarantee that he will be saved and have eternal life in Heaven. Isn’t this the best wish one could ever have for their children? Not good deeds, not good words, and not just going to church will save us.…

The Joy of Slow Living: Savoring Simple Moments Over a Cup of Coffee

A sad day at church
Hi, blog. How are you? Missed me? So random, right? Nah! I just need to let something out, as it is too heavy today. The church announcement feels so heavy. My tears fell before our pastor finished reading his letter. It’s so much that my heart feels so sad knowing that another person is leaving. And I’m wondering, why am I crying? I looked around, and sadness was so evident on people’s faces. So our pastor for 16+ years announced his resignation at church after the service. Last year, they called him to serve in his hometown, and after a few months of praying for it, he finally decided to…
