Money vs Love

In the game of Love and Money, who will really prevail? What will you choose? LOVE is the most wonderful gift that God has given to us or MONEY that will lead you in different places, perspectives and power. These are certain issues we're facing every day especially that money overrule love because practicality comes first. For example, if a woman falls in love with a man, she'll critically think first if the man has a penny before she commits with the man who is wooing her. Reality check, we're facing an economic crisis right now and it's a given fact if a person will think financial matters first instead of giving genuine love to their partners. I'm not saying this generally to all the people, I'm just basing this on the kind of society we have today. Do you believe that money is the root of all evil? That's what many people say because a person can kill or harm others for the sake of money and power. Why just can't we settle on the saying that love makes the world go round instead of laying on a bed of money with an unclear conscience? We can't even bring money to heaven or in hell once we perish here on earth. I'm not underestimating money here, we need it in our everyday needs, the reason for our survival. But love will take you in many ways that money can't do. Spread the genuineness of love to everyone and you'll be richer than any other wealthy people that have lots of money but no love after all.

Halcyon days in Palawan

It’s been a year since my friends and I planned to have a vacation trip to Puerto Prinsesa in Palawan . Then last May of this year, we availed the nine promo tickets from Air Philippines that only cost 700+php back and forth (Manila to Palawan/ Palawan to Manila).  Our departure was Sept. 23-29, 2010 and we were pretty excited for this trip because all of us were first-timers to visit the beautiful province of Palawan. Months have passed but three of my friends were not allowed to take a vacation leave at their work and some of them weren’t also allowed by their parents. So we’re only six in the group and still, we decided to push this one through.  Palawan is such a wonderful place and I can’t refuse this chance of a lifetime of visiting the province they called the Last Frontier . I heard a lot of good comments and reviews about Palawan and I can’t wait to see and experience it for myself.   ( Credits: google.com for this image ) We arrived there at three o’clo...

Resist Their Attempts to “Ground” You: Embrace Your Wicked Self

 If you've spent your life as a misunderstood outcast and always challenged traditional notions of good and evil, yet you are still an empathetic and deeply compassionate soul, you are a variant of "Elphaba Thropp." Wicked is based on the Broadway musical, story of the Witches of Oz: Glinda the Good and Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of The West was originally adapted from a novel, The Wizard of Oz , but reimagined. Both witches explore their complex friendship until some twist of events leads to Elphi’s vilification. Wicked is a beloved work of art for a dear friend of mine, who has shared how it profoundly changed his life and perspectives. When he encouraged me to watch the movie, I agreed, even though I wasn't entirely sure what to expect. The strength of the movie lies in the performances of the lead actors -- the chemistry between Ariana Grande (Galinda/Glinda) and Cynthia Erivo (Elphaba/Elphi) serves as the emotional core of the story. The visuals and produ...

From Silence to Sharing -- My Unconventional Journey and Prioritizing Mental Health

Writing has never been my strong suit. At most times, I grappled with writing slump and the distractions that life unfailingly presents.  But today, before the Year 2023 closes its chapter  (Kathniel yarn? lol),  I'm courageously sharing a piece of my life. A little nervous, but also empowered, as only a few are aware of this.  I used to keep everything inside, but now I'm opening up, and I hope this can help someone else going through a tough time like I did. Life can be tough, especially when you've lost someone, but I want to encourage others to find their strength and keep going, no matter what. STORYTIME:   I had only worked for just  eight months in my former company when they offered me an overseas opportunity during the pandemic's peak. Uncertainty loomed, but my mom's  (BesNay)  contagious enthusiasm encouraged me to step outside my comfort zone. However, life paints a complex picture. I faced the heart-wrenching loss of my mother wh...
