twenty-five
The jubilee year which happens every 25 years is here! To turn 25 the same year is an incredible blessing. This year, I’ve been brought back into my faith, living life fully alive in Christ – receiving sacramental graces that I once neglected. It is indeed the best year of my life so far. I…

Secret Change of Heart
So the cat is out of the bag – I did law school. A secret I kept from many people in my life, including my family. I didn’t tell them for three months with some I told after six months. I was planning to keep it a secret till I was ready to reveal it…

Mayflower
This year in the month of May, a ship set sail to find new horizons – a birth of freedom in the search of the unknown. It came as a surprise that someone like myself, a person who would rather explore in their own imagination than to explore the world, departed from familiar soil to…

Universe of Man
What drives you? For the last four years, I was driven by extrinsic motivation to complete my nursing and midwifery degree. In other words, I pursued the degree at the expense of what gives me satisfaction and meaning in life, or so I thought. I felt the need to be validated by my family and…

What a passionate kiss… and yes, they finally got married! After physical separation and postponed celebrations for the last two years, the couple has officially tied the knot.

Journals: On Authenticity
