These past days have affected me more than I expected. I have always felt indifferent toward marriage. I do not disrespect it, but I have never fully believed in it. My parents separated even though they were married. I have also seen many people fall apart in relationships. Because of that, I learned to keep… Read more

There are parts of my younger self that I look back on with discomfort. I was not just rigid. Sometimes, I was simply wrong. I used to be homophobic when I was younger. I held beliefs that felt righteous because they were familiar and unquestioned. I thought I was defending something important, but I was… Read more

“There is a reason God limits our day.” Reading Mitch Albom’s “The Time Keeper” felt like being wrapped in a warm, comforting hug. I’ve always believed that time is the best expression of love, but this book made me reflect on how differently people perceive time. It opened so many doors of understanding for me,… Read more

We were talking about favoritism earlier today. I caught myself flinching. If I’m honest, I do have favorites. I gravitate toward people who share my rhythm, my values, and my perspective.

It reminded me that noticing is important, but it’s not always enough. Communicating, asking questions, confronting things honestly really matters. That feels like the biggest lesson for… Read more

I used to live by ‘come what may, if it’s for me, it’s for me.’ I let life unfold around me and accepted whatever arrived. But lately, I’ve discovered the thrill of actually wanting something… and doing something about it. I’m moving muscles I didn’t know I had: speaking my desires, imagining them clearly, throwing them into… Read more

Went out to jog with friends tonight.They jogged. I walked. My head has been foggy lately and I did not realize how much I needed to move. Even just walking helped. Breathing helped. Being outside helped. I joked, “Bakit tayo umabot sa ganito?” because we used to just eat and sit and talk. Now we… Read more
This is my bubble.
