A Woman of Faith - TITA PRECY!

If there's one person I'd run to in times that I need intercessory prayers, it's my Tita Precy! It's still my day off, so I thought of calling her...and it was a sensible conversation with her. I love listening to her sharing and testimonies - triumphs over trials through the grace of God.

It's my chance to honor my Tita Precy. She's the beloved mom of my good friend "Joyce." She continuously inspires me with her demonstrative love and persevering spirit ...After a dialogue with her, I felt gratefulness in my heart because she touched me again.. I do consider her as my second mom, too!!!

Let me share a text message I just received:

Good people make us see what it means to be blessed by God. He blessed with good people...so let me say "THANK YOU" for being one of my blessings."

And these are the exact words I'd want to tell her now...Since she's not my textmate, I have an alternative way - to blog about my beautiful TITA PRECY!!

Enhance My TO DO List....

My TO DO LIST on my rest day:
1) tidy up my room
2) have a pedicure or body massage
3) check my friendster & send message to some friends
4) laugh with my friends (wia, beth, beteng, etang, eda, etc..)
5) buy & share my favorite merienda with my housemates - LUGAO with tokwa't baboy
6) and the most recent one, BLOG!!!

There's one thing I'd want to add but I don't have the motivation to do so...EXERCISE!!! I've just read recently that we need God's grace to carry out such activity....Well, to make my day off relaxing as well as rewarding....my first "TO DO LIST" should be "BONDING with GOD." I just thought of it while I'm writing my post now...

Starting tomorrow, my TO DO LIST:
1) Bonding with God 2) exercise............and the last one, BLOG and Thank GOD!!!

He's not my Boyfriend!!!

When I posted our picture at Friendster, I received a message from my college friend, asking if "he's the lucky one." Single life has lonely moments but with my friend "Beteng" around, you won't entertain such thought. He could get your full attention with his comic way of narrating. He could help you temporarily forget your problems - just laugh and never sweat the small stuff!

Being amused by most of his stories, I would also share the laughter with my other friends. I'm lucky that I have a lot of "clowns" in my life- they know who they are!....If Ate Guy has Kuya Germs....well, I have my gigantic buddy "Beteng."

I'd rather not tell some of our crazy moments together because I have to protect the image of Mr. Baltazar - a full-fledge teacher.

TIME and THINGS don't really last....

"TIME and THINGS don't really last. What matters are the people we care about and values we dare to live and share."

I got this message from my friend who've lost her husband last year. I do admire the persevering spirit and unwavering faith of my friend. Recently, she's been sending me inspiring thoughts about life. Honestly, I was moved by the message; thus I immediately forwarded this to my loved ones. "Life is too short," and I don't want to miss the chance of telling them that "I do care."

Happy 1st Birthday Deampaulles!!!

Field Trip to Batangas....

Jad, Tita Elaine & Josh

It's been almost five years since our friend "Dhez" left for a work opportunity abroad. This afternoon, I and Weng went to her hometown - to visit her mom, sister Elaine and two sons. It's a 2-hour trip but we're glad to see her family. Staring at her mom and youngest son "Joshua" reminded us of our good friend.

We savored the special pancit and bibingka. We enjoyed the stories of her cool mom and the contagious laughter of her beautiful sister "Elaine." We got a chance to kiss her sons. We talked with Dhez over the phone and felt how touched she was to have us in her home. We also paid a visit to the Parish of Father Pio in Sto. Tomas, Batangas.

It's a wonderful day for me and Weng! We're thankful that we've made our friend happy in our own simple way....and we appreciate the hospitality of her family!

Mommy, Elaine & Abet - THANK YOU!!!

"Simplify and Live the Good Life"

While writing a post for my father which I just published to my other blog "Each Day Counts," I'm also chatting with my best friend Ailene. It's been a stressful day for me but I got some immediate relief. Finding time for your hobby and people you care for would help you live a happy life.

I'm not the workaholic type of person, I'm a lifeaholic! As much as possible, I want to work regular hours, not more than eight hours. I want to spend more quality time with my family, friends, and things that I love. I just want to enjoy life!!!
