I still miss those uplifting words. Now and then, I would reread her poems in the three lovely books I have here in my shelf. They are a joy to read in this otherwise bleak morning. The sun is slowly coming out though. Mary Oliver is a favorite.
One other author whose works I always look forward to is Richard Paul Evans. We are friends in Facebook and I also follow his blog. I have a whole collection of quotes taken from his various books which he freely shares with friends.

I can’t help but react when I watched his video on Facebook. Yes, I cried (they are tears of joy of course).
For several months now, people are urging him to run again for a Senate seat. He lost to Duterte during the 2016 presidential election. You can’t win, those bots and trolls who were kept busy destroying the man, making FAKE news about him. His political enemies were at their best propagating those lies.
After months of discernment, he said it was really hard to decide. He is now enjoying being a private citizen, bonding with his family, visiting several provinces here in the Philippines, mountain climbing with his wife.
He knows about the problems the country and its people are facing now. He said he has given his all during the past government posts but he cannot just turn his back on us and the problems our economy faces right now. Is he willing? YES! He is asking for our help because he could not do it alone. He needs us to be there behind him.
I just remembered, I still have the baller bracelet of Mar which Nissa gave me during the 2016 presidential election.
Thanks Sen. Mar. You gave us hope.
MAR ROXAS for the win.

He was the first pope to visit the Philippines back in the 70’s. I was in high school then and we attended the mass held at the UST grandstand. I remember wearing my gala uniform together with other students in high school. Now he is a saint.
Pray for us, St. Pope Paul VI.
Gosh, why do I find it so hard to acces this site. Still a trial and error thing. It always points me to my main blog.

It’s been a while. I am reblogging this here from my main blog Dreams and Escapes. I hope you’ll find time to visit it to. My gosh, I got so excited when I saw it. There are several designs actually and all with Biblical passages. One of the vendors in our subdivision is selling them. […]
I can’t believe I haven’t touched and visited this blog like forever (an exaggeration of course) but I was so focused on updating my main blog so I forgot about this. Early this morning while I was watering the plants, I looked up at our jackfruit trees and saw this. I was hoping I could […]

Gosh, I can’t believe it’s been almost a year now since I posted something here. I am always updated with my main blog though, a link of which is attached here. Sharing this photo I took yesterday, we locally call it Lato salad, a appetizer. I love seaweeds and I buy them once in a […]
Nonna’s joy. I think this is the second time I posted a picture of my grandson here. He is turning six this coming November. Time flies. Happy Grandparents’ Day to all proud grandparents like I am.
Gosh. I haven’t updated this site for so long concentrating instead on my main blog Dreams and Escapes. I hope I would be able to post more in the coming days.
This is just my 89th post after three years of blogging. But I have always been updated with my main blog. You can find the link here on the right corner of the blog. I’ve recently took shots of our garden blooms. Summer is here and more blooms could be seen. […]
