Dear Lord, grant us the strength to walk with unwavering confidence, even when chaos surrounds us. You, who calmed the stormy seas with a mere word, are the same God who holds the universe in the palm of Your hand. Just as You provided manna for the Israelites in the wilderness and guided them with a pillar of fire, guide us now through the storms of life. Let us find solace beneath the shelter of Your mighty wings, as the psalmist wrote, "He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty."

Help us to lay down the burdens we were never meant to carry, just as Jesus invited us to do: "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." Open our hearts to trust in Your promise, as You declared through the prophet Isaiah: "I am He, I am He who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you." Let these words be a constant reminder that we are not alone, and that Your love and power are more than enough to carry us through any trial.

"And in the end, I believe that we don't need to do anything to be loved. We spend our lives trying to seem prettier, smarter.
But I realized two things.
Those who love us see us with their hearts and attribute qualities to us beyond those we really have.
And those who don't want to love us will never be satisfied with all our efforts.
Yes, I really believe that it is important to leave our imperfections alone.
They are precious to understand those who see us with the heart. "

MAGALING MAKISAMA SA IBA, PERO SA ASAWA MO HINDI?

May mga tao—lalaki man o babae—na kapag pakikitungo sa iba ang usapan, ang galing-galing nila. Parang maamong tupa, maayos makisama, at sobrang bait. Pero pagdating sa sariling asawa o karelasyon, ibang-iba ang ugali. Laging mainitin ang ulo, pasigaw kung sumagot, at parang wala nang oras para magpakita ng malasakit.

Pero dapat tandaan, kung kaya mong maging mabait at maayos sa ibang tao, dapat lalo mo itong gawin para sa iyong asawa o karelasyon.

Kung patient ka sa iba, mas dapat mo itong ipakita sa kanya.

Kung nice ka sa iba, mas nice ka dapat sa taong kasama mo sa hirap at ginhawa.

Hindi tama na sa ibang tao ka lang mabait, pero sa asawa mo lagi kang galit. Tandaan, sa lahat ng tao, ang asawa o partner mo ang unang karapat-dapat sa kabutihan at pagmamahal mo.

Huwag mo silang gawing tagasalo ng lahat ng galit, pagod, at inis mo. Sa halip, mas pagyamanin ang samahan ninyo, dahil sila ang kasama mo sa pagbuo ng buhay at pangarap mo.

One day, you will meet someone who loves you with such kindness and respect that it will feel almost unfamiliar. They will look at you with eyes that see all of you—your flaws, your scars, your stories—and still choose you, wholeheartedly.

You will begin to let go of the fear that has held you back from trusting again. The hurt you carried, the doubts you whispered to yourself late at night, and the walls you built to protect your heart will start to crumble—not because someone forced them down, but because love, in its purest form, does not need to fight for space; it earns it through patience and understanding.

This person will enter your life when you least expect it, reminding you that the right connection does not drain you—it nourishes you. Their laughter will fill your quiet moments with joy, and their presence will feel like sunlight warming the coldest corners of your soul.

They might not have the perfect words or grand gestures, but they will love you with sincerity. Their tenderness, their willingness to stay when things are not easy, and their quiet, steady warmth will make you realize that true love is not complicated—it is safe, gentle, and makes your heart feel at home.

One day, you will meet this kind of love. And when you do, everything will finally make sense.

"ANG PAGBABAYAD NG UTANG AY REFLECTION NG MABUTING PAGKATAO YAN."

"It’s not just about money, it’s about respect and integrity. Kapag marunong kang tumupad sa usapan, people will see you as someone they can trust.

Mahirap minsan, pero mas masarap sa pakiramdam kapag wala kang iniiwasan. Peace of mind is priceless.

Promises and commitments define a person’s character. Kung kaya mong panindigan ang maliit na utang, mas may bigat ang salita mo sa mas malalaking bagay.

Hindi lang ito tungkol sa pera—it's about being accountable. A good reputation is built on honesty, and once you lose it, mahirap nang mabawi."

Keep Silent

Keep silent
When you have nothing pleasant to say.

Keep silent
When anger takes hold of you.
Avoid stabbing your soul,
For some wounds never fade.

Keep silent
In the face of what does not concern you.
Do not waste your energy on futile causes.
Not everyone deserves
Your strength or your time.

Keep silent
When someone displeases you.
Take a step back—
It is often the healthiest path.

Keep silent.
Do not hurt.
Do not offend.
Do not argue.

Protect your peace in your own way,
Without shouting or outbursts.
Step away for a moment,
And return when the storm has passed.

The world already carries so much anger—
Why add more?

Both mangoes are growing on the same branch of the same tree. One is already ripe, while the other still needs more time to ripen.

Through these mangoes, nature imparts an important lesson: just because others seem to achieve success before us doesn't mean we're failures. It simply means that our time has not yet arrived.

Therefore, we must remain patient, stay resilient, and avoid giving in to frustration.

We could be just a short time away from reaching our own moment of success.

Remember, our time will come, but it takes patience, persistence, and faith!

𝐈𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞.
Fueling their mind.
Watering their thoughts.
Showing them grace and asking for forgiveness when we’ve fallen short.

𝐈𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞.
Building healthy relationships.
Teaching them manners.
Showing them the power of kindness.

𝐈𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞.
Using words that honor.
Speaking life into our situations.
Refusing to give up when the going gets tough.

𝐈𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞.
Prioritizing the right things.
Making memories in the mundane.
Feeling our emotions rather than bottling them up.

𝐈𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞.
Being there for them.
Opening the lines of communication.
Getting to know them more each and every day.

And each and every day, I pray that home will be a place they remember as learning, laughing, growing, forgiving, and setting a strong foundation for many years to come.

The Impact of Our Actions

The way you treat me, changes me. In the delicate dance of human interaction, we often forget the profound impact our actions have on others. When we treat someone with insensitivity, disregard, and callousness, we leave invisible scars that alter the fabric of their being. It takes a sincere apology, a heartfelt acknowledgment of the pain caused, to mend the broken threads and weave the connection back together.

Intentions matter a lot, never forget that. They are the silent architects of our actions, shaping the way we interact with the world. When intentions are pure and kind, they build bridges of trust and understanding. But when they are tainted with selfishness or indifference, they erect walls that divide and isolate.

Don't play with emotions, for they are stored in our so-called memory bank. Each interaction, each word, each gesture is recorded and remembered. You may be forgiven, but people never forget how you made them feel. The echoes of those feelings linger, influencing future interactions and shaping the way we perceive each other.

In the end, it is the way we treat each other that defines our relationships. Let us strive to treat others with kindness, respect, and empathy, for these are the foundations upon which lasting connections are built. Let us remember that our actions have the power to change others, and let us choose to change them for the better.

There comes a day when you realize that the fear never really goes away,
that if you really want something,
you have to be willing to do it afraid.

And maybe this is the only way you ever get to discover your fullest potential.
Maybe you just have to dive right in and face the thing that scares you the most.

Because in the end,
it's not the rejections and so-called failures that will haunt you.
It will be your own potential left unexplored.

So maybe you don't need to wait until you overcome your fears to take the first step forward.

Maybe you just need to know there's something more important than fear. Something greater.
Something worth fighting for.

And maybe overcoming your fears is the least important part of your story anyway.

Maybe what matters is that you're scared but still determined.
Shaky but still standing.
Afraid but still willing to try.

In English, we say: “I miss you.”
But in poetry, we say:
“I trace the shape of your absence in the spaces where your laughter used to linger,
and let the echoes of you fill the hollow hours.”

In English, we say: “I don’t know how to let go.”
But in poetry, we say:
“I carry you in my chest like a stone—
heavy, unyielding, and carved with the sharp edges of what once was.”

In English, we say: “I feel lost.”
But in poetry, we say:
“The compass of my heart spins wildly now,
its needle drawn to places it can no longer call home.”

In English, we say: “I wish it were different.”
But in poetry, we say:
“I water the garden of could-have-beens with tears,
waiting for flowers that refuse to bloom.”

In English, we say: “I hope you’re happy.”
But in poetry, we say:
“May the sun that warms your days and
be as kind to as the first kiss of dew on the dawning light upon the leafs of the laurel that we once made love under”

In English, we say: “You hurt me.”
But in poetry, we say:
“You planted thorns in my chest with hands I once trusted,
and now every breath feels like an apology I shouldn’t owe.”

In English, we say: “I wanted to stay.”
But in poetry, we say:
“I lingered at the edge of your world,
a star burning quietly, unnoticed in your vast, indifferent sky.”

In English, we say: “I’m trying to move on.”
But in poetry, we say:
“I untangle your name from my veins each morning,
only to find it woven into my dreams again at night.”

In English, we say: “I’ll be okay.”
But in poetry, we say:
“I gather the shattered pieces of myself like broken glass,
knowing someday, even scars can catch the light.”

With poetry I write paths through gardens of grace with words in ways my body dare not go as a whole.

"I’m slowly learning that even if I react, it won’t change anything, it won’t make people suddenly love and respect me, it won’t magically change their minds. Sometimes it’s better to just let things be, let people go, don’t fight for closure, don’t ask for explanations, don’t chase answers and don’t expect people to understand where you’re coming from.

I’m slowly learning that life is better lived when you don’t center it on what’s happening around you and center it on what’s happening inside you instead.
Work on yourself and your inner peace and you’ll come to realize that not reacting to every little thing that bothers you is the first ingredient to living a happy and healthy life."

my father made a good point when he said:

when a flashlight grows dim or quits working, you don't throw it away, you change the batteries.

when a person messes up and finds themselves in a dark place. do you cast them aside? of course not, you help them change their batteries!

some need AA batteries. attention and affection; some need AAA. attention, affection and acceptance;
some need C. compassion.
some need D. direction.

and if they still don't seem to shine. simply sit with them quietly and share your light.

Life is going to throw dirt at you, all kinds of dirt... the trick to getting out of the hole is to shake it off and use it to step up. Each of our problems is a step up. We can get out of the deepest holes if we don't give up!

This is a couple.

In these backpacks, there are many things: problems, economic struggles, joy, sadness, and more.

Life will throw challenges your way, and at times, the load will feel impossible to bear.

But when you have a reliable partner, someone who stands by your side through the storms and the sunshine, you realize that no weight is too heavy.

Together, you find strength. Together, you share the burden.

And together, you experience the beauty of lifting each other up.

True love means being each other’s support when the world feels too much to handle.

Never underestimate the power of facing life’s journey with the right person by your side.

"When you hurt good-hearted people, they won't scream, they'll keep their pain inside.
They will gently and silently drift away never to return. They won't stop being good, they'll never trust you again. This is exactly when you lost them.”

I'M NOT BLIND, I NOTICE EVERYTHING.
I notice..when people treat me differently...when others tell lies thinking I'd be too dumb to realize...when I'm not part of the plan...when some people act weird towards me...when I'm just an option...when I'm being used for someone else's gain...when kindness has another meaning...when people connive.
I notice everything.
So don't mistake my silence for naivety.
I'm too keen for that.
I'M NOT BLIND, I NOTICE EVERYTHING.
