summer...




here comes the summer sun...as if the heat during the lenten season was not enough, another season comes with joyous sunshine and nostalgic moments by the beach...bougainvilla's rise to the call of the sun in every color of its blooms...i may not be able to get to Ibiza ever, but hey, i've got her music to transport me to her famous shores on any lazy day...

path to wellness



i am unwell...i am in constant duel with my weight..and from it stems frustrations,depression and snapping at everyone at the slightest agitation.My mom says it must be post partum depression but even depression is an enemy...i am the kind that the more depressed i get the more food i stuff in my mouth and the more buried i am in the deep...hence, my humongous state of being.
i need to maintain a steady motivation of incorporating,self-discipline, moderation,contentment,self-control, etc in my day to day life...in other words, sensible diet with proper exercise...sigh

Home



nothing beats being at home really.with all the familiarity and comfort.
got to spend two weeks in my hometown.
its relaxing to be able to go about town without the worry of domestic and motherhood issues hovering around.I have always prayed for us to get back here but maybe our purposes weren't finished yet on the north side of our island...Sigh

if you ever get to Iligan City though, try that Bottom Black Pie above at Zoey's near the plaza...it worth getting there...hehehe

Darfur



I got this album last Christmas...it's beautiful.not only do you get to have John Lennon's songs but you also get to help the millions of life in Darfur and other places the Amnesty International helps by getting this album...

In my own little way, i pray for the lives of the women and children in Darfur who have to survive on their own.my life is not perfect, but after hearing true stories from Darfur, i realize how pale and petty my issues are...I pray for their safety, their sanity and peace for their land.
