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…

Postpartum hair loss?
They say it’s just normal. But I am now here at the point where I got back to questioning: “why, Mother Nature, why?” I mean, after the “getting fat” phase, the roller coaster of emotions, the crying all the time, the wild cravings, the bleeding, the painful boobs while breastfeeding, the lack of sleep. Now it’s hair loss. HAIR LOSS!!! When I was pregnant, I was excited about getting my hair done (because you can’t have chemicals on your body while you’re carrying your child!) – I wanted to cut my hair short since I knew about the hair loss, maybe have it straightened and colored (because I’m honestly tired…

Be someone’s miracle today!
I see a lot of people who really want to be part of something bigger – extending what you have to other people who are in need. But it’s just too difficult especially we have our own challenges as well financially, emotionally, physically, etc. It’s always one of my dreams to donate or volunteer or maybe someday build, organize, lead, and inspire my own group. It all started because of my love for travel, that I was able to help as a volunteer. We collect cash donations and in kind, re-pack them, and deliver them to the people who need them more. My first mission was way back in college when…
