Yesterday, I attended a farewell party dinner for a very good friend and comrade. It was a sad event just as any farewell would be. I was very affected with my friend’s decision to leave the organization we became part for more than half a year where we shared so many good memories. I never [...]

With the changing weather, health problems may arise. For instance, cough, cold, and flu, especially to children, are now common illnesses.

The past two weeks was very tiring for me, work wise, career wise, and personal wise. It was a challenging week but I was very fortunate that I was armed with prayers and faith that I was able to surpass everything with a smile on my face.
I thought yesterday, after finishing all my household chores [...]

The other day, I was lamenting how sad it is to be far from your child. My son went to a trip to Baguio together with my husband’s family for three days and I was very worried and sad all that time.
