Education Should Be a Priority

Ever since I was young, I knew I wanted to finish school. I have always been bright and curious, eager to learn, but life was not easy. School felt like a ladder I had to climb. Each step was hard and required all my strength. I worked part time jobs, attended tutorials, and became a student assistant just to keep going. Some nights, I came home so tired my body ached, yet I opened my books by the dim light of a lamp, determined not to fall behind. Finally, I reached the top. I finished school. I am proud not just of surviving, but of using my mind and determination to overcome the challenges. But I know not every student can climb this ladder. Many want to learn, but they do not have the support, strength, or resources to balance work and school. That is why I believe our government must pay more attention to education. I am grateful for the programs and support that exist, but sometimes the money does not reach the students who need it most. Some people take advantage of the system, ...

Empowering Womanhood

In a world dominated by patriarchy, I am amazed to see strong and powerful women in our society. Very good examples are Angela Merkel, the Chancellor of Germany, Nirmala Sithraman, the current Defense Minister of India and the second woman to hold the office, and our very own Charo Santos Concio, the Chief Content Officer of ABS CBN which is the largest entertainment and media conglomerate in the Philippines. Even though, gender discrimination is still prevalent at this day and age, let’s always instill the empowerment of women in every day of our life. There is nothing wrong with feeling confident, satisfied and gratified. Women should have rights just like everyone else regardless of the gender. As women, we must: Lead by example. Empowering other women is to lead by example. Be a role model in the society. Watch what we say. Practice what we preach. Live without hurting others. Do our best in everything we do so that our little sisters, daughter, mother, and circle of ...

Valentine’s Day Poem for YOU!

Every time we are always apart I don’t know how my day will start All I know is I need to be smart As long as I have you in my heart. I received red roses today, It made my sadness goes away. No words that I can say And now I feel okay. You are everything to me; I can’t imagine my life will be, Without you, I don’t want to see Coz it is written that there is we. I can’t hide that you are my life; You’re the reason for my smile. Thank God that I became your wife, Long wait, a blessing that’s worthwhile. Even if there is no more sun to shine, More wrinkles to have in time, Though we get older, you will always be mine You are always in my heart, my Valentine!

Small Things Matter

Small things or moments in our lives are often unnoticed or not appreciated. They are undervalued because we are deeply focused on the major or significant happenings in our life. But this holiday season, for a change, why don’t we try to celebrate the small feats that happened to us. We are always dreaming or waiting for the big things to arrive for us to be contented, but the truth is, it is the small things that matter most. Now Christmas is approaching, and everyone is busy buying gifts and preparing for the celebration. We buy presents for our friends and families expecting it to be appreciated but ironically, we ourselves are unappreciative in what we receive, and expecting something else better. We are trying to look for something expensive or something worthy of recognition because of our thinking that gifts should be high priced for others to appreciate. I don’t disapprove anyone for this action or beliefs because many of us would think that the value of that special p...

Build Bridges Not Walls

Let’s take a minute and ask ourselves, “Do we build walls or do we build bridges?” Let’s be honest and admit that most of the times we build more walls than bridges. We believe that when we are hurt, it is best to build walls or to isolate ourselves with others. We make the walls so high that people around us can’t enter our lives. Let’s take a more positive approach and build bridges to connect with other people. Granted that there is a risk, but let’s give a chance for people who deserve it. There was a time in my life that I had to put walls to most of the people in my life. I got hurt and the first thing that I wanted to do was to isolate myself from others. I felt safe but alone. Then a friend advised me that I have to give it another try. She told me that I will never find happiness if I don’t risk it. So I tried to remove the walls I put up and repair the bridges I destroyed. To my astonishment, the results were positive. I found happiness, unconditional love and peace of mi...
