The power of your story
Hey, guys. Nothing big to share today, but I’d like to talk about all things ‘limitations. The first days of 2019 taught me a very valuable lesson I almost always didn’t put in mind – limitations. I’ve been busy in my ‘self-care’ project without even realising I was spoiling myself already. Stress-eating, binge-watching, spending too much time on Facebook. Aside from being a mom, I didn’t feel productive that I was too weak to even take pictures and update my Dailies. I mean, what shots would I have? My life’s getting boring. Routinary. Wake up, be a mom, eat, take a bath, go to work, work, eat, work, go home,…

On keeping secrets
Some may say I am oversharing life stuff on Facebook, Instagram, and even here on the blog by posting lots of photos, sharing private stories, etc. I think so, too. Sometimes, due to my anger, happiness, pain, excitement, I tend to grab my phone the second I feel it and post anything that’s in my mind. But newsflash: if you think you already know my life, then think again. There still are things I filter (not just selfies) before I publish them. Nope, they’re not fake, I just put a little “tint” on it to cover my private life. And yes, it is possible. For example, this little notebook on…

Looking back before 2018 ends *heart emoji*
It’s already Christmas! I know we are not certain all bout Jesus’ birthdate, but most of us are celebrating life, joy, and love in Jesus’ name. ‘Tis the season for forgiveness and making peace, showering love, and gift giving. And speaking of gifts, this is the first time I gave little gifts to the people in the office who were always there for us, making us safe and comfortable. It may be a little thing, but really, it is a big tick to my bucket list – to give back at least in simple ways. Thank God for the continuous blessings that I am more than willing to share! By…

I don’t know why I’m still writing about this but here’s my life lately
It has been a busy month. No, really. Juggling two jobs is hard, I’ve made myself aware about that even before I entered the second one. But it’s just now that it’s actually sinking in. Both are demanding too much from my 24-hour day. And oops, I forgot to mention I also am a mom. Being away from home at 7am to 9pm during the weekdays made me feel really guilty, so I had to excuse myself from my second raket on weekends. But normally, that’s my weekdays and I’m also out for blog features at 11am to around 12mn on Saturdays and Sundays. My Mnemo just turned seven months…

May Day: One day at a time
Last Sunday, I went to Baclaran church to light a candle and pray. If you’re wondering why I would travel almost seven kilometers at 6am just to light a candle, well, I usually don’t. I’m not one of the people who would go to a church just to talk to Him, because I believe I can whenever and wherever I needed to. Last Sunday, I just needed to start my day early and took the chance to at least pray for a few minutes. It was just then that I realized, that in spite of all the stuff that’s been happening in my life, I still consider myself happy. How could…
