Morning everyone. Gising pa rin ako.
Ang hirap pag moody, lagi nalang nag-iisip, kaya palagi ring puyat, haha. But seriously, this moodswing is a torture. Or is it depression? I don’t know. But it’s a wreck. Imbis na maging masaya ako ngayon dahil December (ang buwan ng mga pagsasaya) eh nalulungkot ako. Yes, nalulungkot din naman ako kahit Kristiyano ako. Continue reading
I love the smell of sampaguita. When I, my brothers and my sister were just children, we have a large shrub of sampaguita grown in our front yard, just beside the wooden gate and with all the other trees, and flowering and vegetable plants.

Today, we’ve lost all our trees and shrubs in the front yard, except for one that’s still standing at the backyard. And also today, it seems sampaguita could just be seen on the streets being sold outside churches, worn as garlands by graduates and for guests, and is placed on religious symbols. Continue reading

Yes, I’m a melancholic person.
And yes again, I’m also an introvert. And a choleric one.

Maybe for many, depression is treated as something really super negative, but when I stumbled upon that quote (image), I was quite thinking it was right.
Well it’s just my simple shoutout! to all because I notice I wasn’t able to update my blog these past few weeks.
I’m an introvert, and I accept it, because God made me like this. I know it will be put into good use for His will sooner or later.
