Gratitude for the Proofs of Heaven on Earth
Finally, I’ve finished reading Proof of Heaven. I purchased this e-book about 6 months ago, but I only had the time to finish this lately. This book was written by Dr. Eben Alexander, a neurosurgeon , who was privileged to have a glimpse of heaven and actually feel...
Days After Haiyan: We Loot to Survive
My sister and I tried going into the stores to get whatever we can, but we came out empty-handed. If you see the situation inside the stores, you would think twice about looting. In my case, I got afraid when I saw some people went inside stores with kitchen knives to...

Remembering Yolanda (Haiyan): My Story
A note before you start — this piece describes the days after Typhoon Haiyan, including scenes of the dead. I've written it plainly because that's how it was. The only thing that's constant is change. Life IS a constant change, so they say. But what if at a snap of a...

Photo: flicker.com This morning, as I was preparing to keep my laptop, I was surprised to find a 5 peso coin underneath it. I could not remember how I left it there or if it even belonged to me. But who else would it belong to? I’m the only one who has that annoying...
10 Places I Want to See Before I Die: My Travel Bucketlist
"The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page." ~Saint Augustine photo: notablequotes.com This year, I got hit by a severe case of wanderlust. I don’t exactly know how it started, but I just knew that this year and the following year will be a...
Change: An Antidote to Boredom
Photo: quotationaboutlife.com And so the week had been a kaleidoscope of emotions. I got happy, sad, mad, bad, good and then I started to be an annoying person. Most of all, I started to be out of focus. I don't know what's happening, it's like life is spinning so...
