It's been some years since I started this blog. Supposedly, it was only to share my plight as a cancer patient and survivor but over the years it has somehow evolved into something personal about my life and my family. So really glad to have met you all wonderful people out there. Someone commented once that he liked the title of this blog, Dreams and Escapes. Dream on, there are more things in life than we really think. Be happy, you only live once. Sometimes you also need an escape from the vicissitudes of life and this blog helps me cope. Welcome. Feel free to leave your comments, I do welcome them.

Be Strong And Courageous
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. […]
What A Surprise!
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 […]

Lato, Anyone?
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 […]
He Is A Big Boy Now
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.
Something To Think About
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.
My Garden Blooms
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. […]
Something To Think About
I have a whole album of quotes that I made into memes. Some are passages from the Bible, some are words from famous people. This is one of them. Gosh, it took me so long to update this blog but I regularly post in my main blog, Dreams and Escapes. Good morning everyone 🙂
When The Sea Speaks
I want first of all, to be at peace with myself. I want a singleness of eye, a purity of intention, a central core to my life that will enable me to carry out….obligations and activities as well as I can. I want in fact – to borrow from the language of the Saints – […]

She helps
She procures those needed PPEs in hospitals, arrange those rides for our frontliners, give them food etc. She is the only one working for real.

All the leaders are slowly disappearing. Now here, we have Boris and others claiming to have the virus, so they can hide. And even Prince Charles, next in line to be king, has gone to hide in a Scottish castle. They should be ashamed.
Best wishes, Pete.

They’re not ashamed, are they? All of them have gone in hiding. They’ re supposed to be responsible addressing the people on what is happening around. It is even annoying that they have set 4pm today for him to deliver whatever he wants to tell the people, but until now, he is a no-show.

I love that because it expresses exactly how I feel about what is going on in the U.S., too.

I hope they still possess hearts to correct their wrongdoings. How are you?

I don’t think our president has a heart or a soul. It’s really terrible. I am fine. We can go out to get groceries and prescriptions. Since we live in a rural area I can get out to take short walks without even seeing anyone else. So we are doing ok, but I miss being able to see my father and sister and, of course, Ben and his parents. How are you? I’m sure you miss being able to see Nate and his mom and dad.

Good thing you’re still able to go out. We haven’t attempted going out except in the garden to water the plants. I miss Nate but I am also able to talk to him over the phone now and then. Take care Deband regards to the family especially to Ben.
