SAYING YES TO A DREAM

It's so scary to take that step on who and what you want to become. For many years I kept on delaying this--- intentionally, unintentionally, consciously and unconsciously. The words that you are about to read, came from the deepest part of me and even starting this, makes my heart tremble. It doesn't come from the head but it is built from from the heart. Hear me out.

HOW WE MET

 It's so easy to get caught up everyday, doing our daily routines and just going about life as it is--- not realizing how blessed we are. How blessed we are to spend our days with people we love most. How blessed we are to get to spend days of our lives with the person that matters. To be able to hug and stroke the face of our loved one. 

IN TIMES OF TEST, FAMILY IS ALWAYS THE BEST, INDEED!

Keziah and Michael are two wonderful individuals. These two gave Jim and I, a surprise visit. The reason? They wanted to cheer me up, they said. 

On many occasions, we plans our lives on a neat sheet of itemised details yet it isn't really that simple. We encounter loads of bumps and hiccups. One thing is definite, we can never do it on our own. 

Only a Filipino could totally understand...

Only a pure Filipino could understand the law of the Philippine road or the lack of it. Above is a picture of a 2-lane road. Yes! Exactly, a 2-lane road.

There are a number of peculiar things and ways in the Philippines that one way or another made us curse or disappointed. But this homeland of mine is also a country of bliss.

We still find ways to smile and laugh even if we aren't as organized nor systematic as the other countries. Don't get me wrong. I would really love to see my homeland progress but I just am so amazed of how we became so tolerant, resilient, humble, cool-minded and most of all strong amidst our chaos. 

Love? It does exist!

JIM

We grew up reading Cinderella, Snow White---fairy tales that made us believe that there is love, that there is a happily ever after. Yet, when we live through the years, we experience pain, we feel heartaches and we get our hearts broken... But somehow, we never truly give up on LOVE---even how many times we say we would. 

Dogs' Purpose

 A best friend can mean a person or at times, a pet. For us, we take loads of pleasure being with our four-legged friends, Kimoy and Kulas. They are part of our small family and ever since we had them, they bring nothing but enormous joy and at times, excruciating headache. Haha. Kimoy was the first baby in the family. The name means "little Kim." She has a very sweet and gentle character. She never walks away from us and never needs a lead whenever we go walking.
