Grief

-




 the courage to reflect on my August journey has brought me face-to-face with a heavy realization. For the first time, I was unable to journal my devotion for a month. instead, Iquietly converse with Him in the recesses of my mind. This grieving heart still carries the weight of these unspoken words. but I know that He understands and hears me always. In my sorrow and regret, please forgive me, Lord. May your everlasting grace sustain me as I journey forward, in your name. Amen. 🙏


Open Letter to my Papa:

Papa,
this is not what I imagined our year would be.
Marami pa akong pangarap at planong family trips natin. 
Marami pa akong gustong i-share na moments with you and Elle. Kahit sa maikling panahon nakita ko na sobrang minahal mo si Elle ang bunso mong apo, gaya ko na bunso mo rin na talagang nakaramdam ng pagmamahal mula sa’yo. 
Mamimiss ko yung lagi mong sinisigawan mga apo mo kasi kabado ka madisgrasya sila pag naglalaro, ikaw ang personal life guard ng mga bata for free 😄🥹
Sa ilang araw mo nakahimlay, nakikinig lang kami ng masasayang stories about you, Papa, kung paano mo na-touch ang maraming tao at babaunin namin yun Papa hanggang kami ay nabubuhay. Alam ni Lord lahat ng pinagdaanan natin pamilya, and only He can see how we loved and cared for you. 
Sobrang sakit sa puso na again aalis ka muli ng bahay natin but this time hindi ka na babalik 😭

Papa, 
thank you for your life, 
thank you for being Mama’s source of joy,
thank you because you are our Papa!

Hindi ka na maghahabol ng hininga diyaan sa Heaven, hindi ka na kukulitin diyaan na uminom ng gamot, hindi ka na magagalit sa mga tao kasi pinipilit kang magpagaling.❤️‍🩹

Rest well, Papa Lito. 🕊️

Philippians is known as the happiest book in the Bible, yet it was written in prison.

Moral of the story: don’t let your circumstances steal your joy. It's easy to think that joy is dependent on our circumstances. That our happiness is tied to our possessions. But the book of Philippians, widely regarded as the happiest book in the Bible, offers a different perspective. Paul, the author of this book, was locked up, but his heart was free. Even from behind bars, his joy shone bright, proving that real happiness comes not from our circumstances, but from the strength of our faith. So, when life throws us into the pits, remember to look up and find joy in the Lord. As we read Philippians, we see that Paul's joy was rooted in his relationship with God and his purpose in life. He knew that his struggles were part of a greater plan, and he trusted in God's sovereignty. When we allow our joy to be dependent on external circumstances, we give power to those circumstances. But when we anchor our joy in God, we are resilient in the face of life's ups and downs. So...

Loyalty is rare. If you find it, keep it.

  Loyalty. It's a word that carries weight. A bond that is tempered by love. In a world where instant gratification reign supreme, loyalty is a a precious commodity that's becoming increasingly hard to find. But when we do find it, we must guard it with our life. For loyalty is not something to be taken lightly. It is the bedrock upon which holds friendships and families together. Loyalty is the fuel that keeps relationships firing on all cylinders. In a world where people come and go like the wind, those who remain by our side through thick and thin are the ones worth keeping. So, hold on to our loyal ones, for they are worth their weight in gold. Think of loyalty as a compass. In a world where everyone seems to have their own agenda, it's easy to lose sight of who we are and what we stand for. But those who are loyal to us, who stick by our side through good times and bad, are like the North Star, guiding us back to ourself. So, lets us cherish our loyal friends, family, ...

Philippines Today

Allowing ONE PERSON — who is convicted and proven to be incompetent is one of the reasons why i really don’t trust the justice system in the Philippines. When Supreme Court makes decisions do not base for political reasons but only for the good our nation, this maybe commendable. Having a good governance is having a good trial decision. However in this trial, everything is like a joke, series of sitcom, or comedy where people were hoping and waiting for a good results but most of the time people wait for nothing. Even how many times people in the power try hard to conceal, it is really visible that they cover themselves from corruption. If the government wants to remove an impeachable officer for lack of "integrity" for failure to file SALN a ten years ago, then why it can’t remove another impeachable public officer for consistently undermining our victory in Philippines over modern conquerors for lack of "competence, integrity, probity, and freedom”? Aside from focusing...
