I know it is tiring to count days, weeks, months, and even years. There are times when we find ourselves asking, “How long should I still wait?”, “Is there still a hope for me?”, and “Am I going to spend the rest of my life alone?” These questions together with Continue Reading
“mAHIWAGA PIPILIIN KA SA ARAW-ARAW… MAHIWAGA ANG NADARAMA SA’YO AY MALINAW…” -BEN&BEN I am a fan of Ben and Ben simula nang nairelease nila ang ilan sa mga pumatok nila na songs like Pagtingin, Kathang-Isip and especially ang kanta nila na Araw-araw. Ito yung mga kanta nila na first time Continue Reading
People who come and go in our lives are the right people at the right time. That is why I defy the words they say about love for a right person at a wrong time or the wrong person at a right time. Because I do believe that there is Continue Reading

I confessed my feelings. And he replied. “I’m speechless”. And I replied, “Okay”. That’s how it ended. We started as colleagues to friends, going out after work (he was my colleague then but assigned sa ibang branch). Planning ‘galas’ and outing. We were texting and chatting on Messenger almost the Continue Reading
1. Commit to good communication. A lot of misunderstanding will likely happen simply because you probably have a different world view. Ask questions like, “What did you mean when you said that?” and “Why do you feel that way?” and be open to their answer being equally valid as yours. Continue Reading
WEIRD! Sobrang weird! I have this feeling na mayroon ka na ding nararamdaman sa akin, ngunit takot tayong parehas sa kakalabasan natin. Ang pagkakaiba nga lang nating dalawa ay sumubok akong sabihin ang nararamdaman ko sayo. As what I’ve expected, masakit ang nakuha kong sagot sa aking pag-amin. Halos ilang Continue Reading
Kaibigan, kaibigan, kaibigan…. Mga salitang pilit ibinibigkas ng aking isip, ngunit taliwas na bigkas ng aking puso. Ngiti na ngayon na lamang nakikita sa aking mukha na ikaw ang dahilan. Nananabik na makita ang mensahe mo na may pang-aasar ngunit ang asar ay napapalitan nang kilig. Ngunit ang kilig ay Continue Reading
Unti-unti ko nang nararamdaman na malapit ko nang makamtan ang araw-araw na aking idinadasal. Unti-unti ko nang tinatanggap na mas pinili mo ang tama sa mali. Ako na mali sa mundo mo, ako na pinakamalaking kasinungalingan sa buhay mo. Ngunit habang lumalapit na ako sa katapusan, ang bigat sa pakiramdam Continue Reading
To the heart that shut its emotions down… Apathy is now your crown. Quench the passion. Extinguish the compassion. Remove all colors if you want. Numb all senses that haunt. Just take your time. Let reason function in this grime. But I know it is certain: One day you’ll surpass Continue Reading
Sanay akong mag-isa… Naglalakad sa gitna ng init ng tanghaling-tapat: Isang isip na sa galaw ng abalang lungsod ay sumisipat. Nayayamot sa hampas ng araw sa balat, Sumisimangot sa ingay ng mga tao’t sasakyang nagkalat. Sanay akong mag-isa… Nagmamaneho sa gitna ng kadiliman ng gabi: Isang kaluluwang binabagtas ang kalsadang Continue Reading

In God’s timeline, I believe that there is no such thing as “late bloomer”. Kahit pa you see other people ahead of you in terms of success or achievements, do not compare yourself sa kanila. Iba-iba parin tayo ng season dahil iba-iba ang timeline na binigay sa atin ni Lord. Continue Reading

Dear young man, Be careful in giving adornment to any woman. You should reserve those words just to the woman of your prayers. You should keep those actions just to your woman of God. You should have those dreams just with the woman of your waiting. Because if you failed, Continue Reading

Ikaw ang pahinga ko sa nakakapagod na mundo —Noon, hindi na ngayon. Nung tinanong kita kung anong problema, ngiti lang ang iyong itinugon kasabay ng mga katagang ” Wala. Mahal na mahal kita. ” kaya ako’y naniwala, pinanghawakan ko pa ng sobra. Naidlip lang saglit, pagmulat ko, bigla kang nag bago. Tila hindi Continue Reading
