Wondering Why Some People Work Three Jobs at a Time for Money? Read This to Understand.

Our finances are the main issue today in the family. We are buried in debts and our savings are constantly depleting. Real talk here: I, myself, have nothing left in my bank account but a few hundred pesos; and to be honest, it scares me. The threat of emergencies which I would need to spend on haunts me. That’s why I decided to brave the possibilities and stray away from my comfort zone. I have chosen to take the path of a freelance person long ago; and I thought that...

Chasing Rainbows

Another composition I worked on several months ago. I honestly think it doesn't have value anymore. I wrote this hoping I have really come to the end, only to find myself coming back again. Or maybe, it just took a little more months to take effect? Yes. I think it applies now better than anytime else. ...

The Art of Contentment

I did not come from a rich family. My father lost his job even before I started high school and my mom had to struggle on her own to support a family of four. It's still vivid in my memory how my dad broke the news to us, in tears.  And more than a decade later, the tides have turned. It's no longer my mom who's the breadwinner of the family. The torch...

A Song that Was Never Heard

Believe it or not, this was supposed to be a song. But in the end, I couldn't do anything. 129 days more. I will look forward to it like it's just two week...

Take a Stand

I used to be that person who just goes with the flow. No real decisions. No definite principles. Incapable of handling my own life. I used to depend on others on what I should believe in, and what I should take as true.  Until I realized that it was the worst way of living. Taking a stand on something is something inevitable for us to be better...

A Writer's Thought at 6AM

In life, we do a lot of things;  things which define who we are and what we are in this world. A self-confessed Jack of All Trades, there are so much I can do. People are proud of me, but I couldn't feel proud of myself. I am a jack of all trades, yes; but I'm a master of none. But among everything I'm capable of, I have to say there's...

Letting Go of Five Years Worth of Memories

I have a confession to make. If you asked me a few months ago if I have moved on, I would have answered ‘yes’, but that doesn’t mean I mean it. Five years of unrequited love, four of those were completely unknown to him, it wasn’t easy freeing myself from the cage of my emotions. Despite the fact that he would never see ‘us’ in a romantic light, I continued loving him until there was nothing left. But if you are going to ask me now if I have moved on, I would answer ‘yes’ too....

Why I Think I Won't Eat Chocolates Anymore

A lot of times, I see myself whining and complaining about what I don't have and what I could never have. I did not come from a rich family and I do admit that there are moments when I would look at others enviously, wondering why they have things I don't. During the worst time, I even blamed my parents for not working hard enough to give me the most comfortable...

Rabies and the Threat It Poses

Everyone knows that I love dogs, so much that I would choose to spend money on their health than mine. Check their records and you’ll see that their vaccines are updated. I guess it’s the trauma brought by the death of two of my babies due to Distemper that made me this particular to their wellness. However, just because I love them enough doesn’t mean...

The Beautiful Side of Regrets

People are funny most times. They do things and then regret it later on. They wallow in self-pity thinking about what-ifs and blaming themselves for being stupid in the past. They are consumed by their guilt and frustration over their past actions and these hinder them from being authentically happy and contented. At one point in my life, I have fallen on the dirty traps of life and like many, I was depressed over the issues of my yesterday. It was dark times - like I'm...
