Breadwinners Lead Better
This goes to all the breadwinners na napapagod na pero lumalaban pa din. Keep going. Mahirap, oo. Nakakapagod, oo. There are times na natatanong mo na yung sarili mo “Until when?” “Kelan naman ako?” “Matatapos pa ba to?” Being a breadwinner is prioritizing your family’s needs over yours.

Saram means Person
Saram means person. I want to have a balance perception in social media but I can’t still avoid self-pity ING, and giving up. Social media displays how flashy you’re life is. Share it and let them think themselves what are they doing. Why don’t you date, have a shopping spree, Continue Reading

When you know you are not ready to commit. It’s okay to bail out.
I met this guy through dating app. I installed the app out of boredom ( alone in the apartment and nothing much to do during work off and can’t travel due to travel restrictions). I thought it would be nice talking to strangers and fooling around. One swipe right and Continue Reading

Consequences of No Label Relationship
Let me share my thoughts regarding No label relationship. Consequences: It steals your peace. It is a prerequisite to ghosting. You”ll have an unexpressed jealousy. You suddenly become a stalker of his/her close friends, likers and reactors. Denial of feelings will eventually become a series of regrets. Time invested will Continue Reading

Make The Most of Today
Sabi ni Victor Hugo, author ng Les Misérables: Short as life is, we make it still shorter by the careless waste of time. In other words, maikli na nga ang buhay, mas pinapaikli pa natin. Paano? Sa ating walang bahalang, walang pakialam at walang ingat na pag-aaksaya ng oras. Higit Continue Reading

Connecting the dots…
It’s not that God doesn’t want us to know what lies ahead. He actually loves to give us clues and He can also tell us everything that’s about to happen however if He do this, our pretty little mind can’t take hold of it. Our brain cannot process all the good things that God has in store for us. That’s why He opted to reveal one dot at a time. Just take it slow. God has already figured it out. Keep calm and have faith 💕
