Happy Mother's Day!

No language can express the power, and beauty, and heroism, and majesty of a mother's love. It shrinks not where man cowers, and grows stronger where man faints, and over wastes of worldly fortunes sends the radiance of its quenchless fidelity like a star. 

~ Edwin Hubbell Chapin~

to all mom, HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!

Happy Valentines Day!

Love is a symbol of eternity.
It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all
memory of a beginning and all fear of an end. ~Author Unknown~

It’s Monday and today is Valentine Day! Before I start doing anything, please allow me to greet you all a Happy Valentine’s Day. I might not able to visit you all guys, for my day seems to be as busy as always, but I’d like you to know that you are all remembered this heart day. Love you friends!

short update and some wishes!

I just came back from my three days official travel from Ifugao. And I so love the place. I’ll finish first my report and will sort my photos then I will share them with you.

For the meantime, allow me to join in Kayni’s birthday blog party. I am not that kind of party person but I love joining virtual parties. Hehehe. And as Kayni turns a year wiser this month, she is very generous to be giving away gifts. I love to have that rabbit omamori and that Hawaiian planner. Wish me luck!

So here’s my take:

For my birthday wishes for this year, though my birthday is still 8 months away, are: good health for the whole family, peace of mind, travel to different places and hopefully a laptop computer.

For my birthday wishes for Kayni are: good health, happy lovelife, more travels and hopefully at least one of her grand wishes in life will come true this year. Ano kaya yon? Care to share kayni? Kapag nagkatotoo na lang siguro. Hehehe.

And from the bottom of my heart and from my family, Kayni, we wish you a Happy-happy Birthday!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Happy Halloween!

What fearful shapes and shadows beset his path,
amidst the dim and ghastly glare of a snowy night!
With what wistful look did he eye
every trembling ray of light streaming across the
waste fields from some distant window!
How often was he appalled by some shrub covered with
snow, which, like a sheeted specter, beset his very path!
How often did he shrink with curdling awe
at the sound of his own steps
on the frosty crust beneath his feet;
and dread to look over his shoulder,
lest he should behold some uncouth
being tramping close behind him!
and how often was he thrown
into complete dismay by some rushing blast,
howling among the trees,
in the idea that it was the Galloping Hessian
on one of his nightly scouring!
~Washington Irving (a quote from "The Legend of Sleep Hollow")~

Happy Halloween guys! And for those who will travel, stay safe. God Bless.

happy weekend!

Yes, it's Friday once again and tomorrow is another rest day. Thanks God for everything.

Guys, this is a very nice reminder for all of us:

happy weekend everyone!

a birthday post!

While some people are afraid of the thought of turning a year older, there are some people who are excited to turn a year older and still looking forward to all the blessings waiting them ahead.

I am one of those persons who excitedly looking forward for new things waiting for me as I unfold another chapter of my life.

Looking back, when I am still a little bit younger, I am always awed of those people who became successful as early as 25 years old. And I dreamt of becoming one of them when I reach such certain age.

But where I am today? Today, at 32, I am officially out of the calendar but hey I am still in the lotto. Lol. Seriously, at 32, I am still too far from counting million or even thousands from my own account. Despite all the hard work and determination to succeed, here I am today still breaking my arm and leg to conquer everything in finding something to feed my family.

I haven’t travel to any place outside the country yet but I’ve been to some beautiful places here in the Philippines.

My 31st year was one of the toughest years in my life but I am proud to say that God never abandon me. Despite all the challenges and the not so good things that happened to me, I know I have a lot of things to thank Him. I have my very supportive family, a loving husband, a smart & healthy daughter, a comfortable place to live with and good health. I also have my job that pays me enough to cover my bills and some more to buy things that I want. And I have a lot of friends, including those that I’ve only met online, who are always there to support me through thick & thin.

I know I should already done things more than what I did, traveled more to different places, acquired more than what I just had and be someone more successful than who I am today.

But this is not the end of my journey; I am only just a halfway through. And in due time, I know I am going to get to a place where I should be. Happy Birthday to me!

“The road of life twists and turns and no two directions are ever the same.
Yet our lessons come from the journey, not the destination.”
~Don Williams, Jr~

“Let you mind start a journey thru a strange new world.
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before.
Let your soul take you where you long to be…
Close your eyes let your spirit start to soar and
you’ll live as you’ve never lived before.”
~Erich Fromm~

“To get through the hardest journey we need take only one step at a time,
but we must keep on stepping”
~Chinese Proverbs~

"The kind of marriage you make depends upon the kind of person you are.
If you are a happy, well-adjusted person,
the chances are your marriage will be a happy one.
If you have made adjustments so far with more satisfaction than distress,
you are likely to make your marriage and family adjustments satisfactorily.
If you are discontented and bitter about your lot in life,
you will have to change before you can expect to live happily ever after."

(Evelyn Duvall and Reuben Hill - - When You Marry)

Five years. Yes, we’ve been married for five years now!

At five years, I learned & fully understand that a husband-wife relationship is very much different from a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.

At five years, I already understand why our parents always remind us that before going into this relationship, we must be financially, emotionally, physically and spiritually prepared. In other words, both spouses must already enjoy their singlehood to the fullest.

At five years, we still stick to our agreement not to say too negative things against each other that a simple sorry / hugs and kisses cannot heal. Better yet, manahimik nalang!

At five years, our greatest joy and achievement so far is having our precious daughter.

At five years, despite our personal differences, we are trying everything to become a better couple & parent to our kid.

I know this marriage is still too young and will definitely have a very long way to go, a lot more of adjustments to go thru and some more arguments/disagreements to solve. But through thick & thin, we will continue to hold on to each other, will conquer everything in the name of love and will make this relationship work till death do us part.

Happy 5th Anniversary to my dear husband.

happy birthday papa!

I am just so grateful for having you as my father
Thank you for all the support that you have given to me
Thank you for trusting me
Thank you for guiding me
Thank you for all the kindness and care that you gave to me
You are truly a blessing for me and for all my siblings
For us, you are the best father in the whole world
I love you Papa.
Happy-happy Birthday to you!

dear papa

I opted to keep silent about my real feel coz I am just too shy to express to you what I feel. But maybe today is the right time to open up and say what I really want to say.

Today let me tell you how much I miss you. I may not there to see you more often and to celebrate every occasion with you, but deep in my heart, I really wish to be there with you.

Life is never an easy journey for me and my family that made me more invisible for you but I know you really understand my situation.

I am so thankful to have you as my father. Everything you’ve done made me a better person.
Papa, thank you too for all the love and concern that you have for me and my family.

And I dedicate this poem to you:

A Dad is a person
who is loving and kind,
And often he knows
what you have on your mind.
He's someone who listens,
suggests, and defends.
A dad can be one
of your very best friends!
He's proud of your triumphs,
but when things go wrong,
A dad can be patient
and helpful and strong
In all that you do,
a dad's love plays a part.
There's always a place for him
deep in your heart.
And each year that passes,
you're even more glad,
More grateful and proud
just to call him your dad!
Thank you, Dad...
for listening and caring,
for giving and sharing,
but, especially, for just being you!
Happy Father's Day

Hundreds of dewdrops to greet the dawn,

Hundreds of bees in the purple clover,

Hundreds of butterflies on the lawn,

But only one mother the wide world over.

~George Cooper~

A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.
~Washington Irving~

A mother understands what a child does not say.

To all the mommies out there,

most especially to all the blogger mommies in my blog list,

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

happy 3rd birthday KA!

Today is your 3rd birthday already. Time flies really so fast! Soon, magiging dalaga ka na anak. I just hope that you’ll stay as sweet as you are. Papa & Mama wish you all the best that life could offer.

This beautiful poem is for you:

Happy Birthday Dear Daughter
By Judith Pleasant

You are a special daughter
who means so much to me.
The day you were born,
there wasn't a lovelier sight to see.
I am glad God gave you to me.
Your love and devotion
has been my reason,
to get through many tough times,
and through many seasons.
As you have grown up,
your beauty shines through,
with a wonderful smile
that shows the real you.
You have a heart that is
made of gold
and I know it will stay that way,
as you grow old.
You make me proud
that you are who you are.
The bond that we have
will keep us close,
and no matter where you are,
you won't seem far.
The closeness we have
will never depart,
cause there is so much love
that connects you to my heart.
I am glad my daughter,
that you are mine,
because having you in my life
makes my sun shine.

Happy 3rd Birthday KA! We love you so much. *mwuah*

happy valentine friends!

"Love means to commit oneself without guarantee,

to give oneself completely in the hope that our love will produce love in the loved person.

Love is an act of faith, and whoever is of little faith is also of little love."

~Erich Fromm~

hey, how are you guys? I've been so quiet for more than a week already. Life is full of challenges for me right now but i know i really have to be strong. I just need some inspirations and motivations here.

Anyway, Valentine's day is soon to be here. Saan ang date natin mga kapatid? hehehe. I think i'll just stay at home. Iwas trapik at iwas gastos na din. lol.

Friends, saan man at sino man ang kadate nyo this coming Valentine, i just hope that you'll enjoy the day.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY TO ALL!

Just dropping by to say Merry Christmas everyone!

Hey guys, two more days to go and its Christmas day. I’m a little bit sad for some work related concerns but I rather not discuss it here because I know it is a season for happiness. And that the inspirational quote that was sent/emailed to me today says:

Joy is what happens when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things are.

Joy is not necessarily what happens when things unfold according to our plans.

~~Marianne Williamson~~

I know I have a lot of reasons to be happy. And one of them is because my family & in-laws are with us this coming Christmas.

Friends, I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

4th year...

but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.
