Sweetest Couple



It's LOVE month...


I am one of those who do not celebrate valentine's day. It's not because I'm bitter or something. It's just the way it has been. hehehe... But I will never hate this month for being a love month because I have become a witness of a love-to-last-forever. Sweet, no!


My mom's birthday is February 15. Since I become aware of this date, I never failed to see my mom having fresh roses on valentines day. When my mom was still teaching, my father used to send them in school. Of course, co-teachers and students always teased my mom. Who wouldn't? hahaha! According to my parents, my dad has been doing that since he was courting my mom. Actually, during the courtship stage, my mom received a flower/s every day. Kiliggers! hehe! Guess what! I have seven (7) siblings. Ang konti! That number excludes two (2) more brothers - Romano and Angelo! They are angels now. 


Let's go back to flowers. When my mom retired, surprising my mom has become more challenging for my dad. There was one time that my father had to hide the flowers in our tricycle and sneaked it inside without being noticed by my mom. hahaha! 


I am grateful for having parents like them. I love them very much. I love my family. 


This Sunday, February 13, will be my mom's birthday celebration and I'm excited! I think my mom won't be receiving flowers on this day. Why??? Because it has always been ON VALENTINE'S Day! Lifeylicious!

Twitter, I Love



It's been three (3) months since I started tweeting and I'm loving it more and more everyday. From 70+, I am now a follower of 213 twitter users. I must admit, I am hooked. hahaha! Actually, I gave up Cafeworld for Twitter. Maintaining an FB application is time consuming so I chose to serve just one master online. That's Twitter! Yipee!


I have only few followers. Those foreign followers gave up on me when I refused to follow them. hehehe! Those my list of those I follow is getting longer. I still do consider myself choosy. For instance, for news sources: I have PDI and ANC only. I follow few artists too. They are Jim Paredes, Rica Peralejo, and Miriam Quiambao. I follow them not because they are artists but because I love their personalities. I also follow those who nurture my  mind, heart and soul like Tony Robbin, Sharma, Ralph Marston, Deepak Chopra, C.S. Lewis, Ken Blanchard and more. There is this group of bloggers to who feed me with thought-provoking statements, questions and ideas. I love them not because I agree with them but because I'm learning much from them. Aside of course from my friends, there are those I follow because they are just nice people. 


Ask me what's my most frequently-visited site these days. The answer is TWITTER, I LOVE! Lifeylicious!
A Screenshot for you...

You Are Beautiful!



I just found a video via Twitter which I think is needed by many of us these days. I am glad I found it. My heart yearns to share it with YOU. 


All want to be accepted, to be part of something - whatever it may be! Though we want to be alone at times, we measure our worth by being part of something - something bigger than self. In our quest for this longing, we tend to measure our worth based on the standards of others. Consequently, with our permission, we let others pull our strings. An example is: People like beautiful, fair-skinned, fashionista person. In order to be one, we allow our purpose, our heart's desire to take the backseat. Sometimes, joining the bandwagon is like entering a labyrinth. Once we enter, expect a slim chance of escaping from it. It becomes life itself. We forget that there is life outside - Life that nurtures! 


If we know and assured that we are BEAUTIFUL as we are, will there be changes on how we perceive things, life... on how we treat ourselves and others, on how we talk, on how we think, on how we act, on how we LIVE?
Given by my father last April 2010.. Lifeylicious!
We are created in HIS image and likeness... Life is a miracle of beauty and YOU are a miracle just like YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!
