TGIT – 10 Counted Blessings
Inspired by the song Blessings by Laura Story… Every day we go through different challenges that are maybe not good – but could they be God’s way of tapping us and reminding us, hey! I remember you that’s why you are in “this” right now… Almost every talk in the community I attend, we are prompted of the blessings that we have at hand. So I thought, why not make a series of blog about it!?! Thought of the title and came up with TGIT- # Counted Blessings! Since Thursday is the start of weekend here in Abu Dhabi, I thought it is a good time to wrap up the…

When Prayers become a hit!
18 March 2016 Here comes my own testimonial of how powerful PRAYERS are! I am saying “PRAYERS” because I am referring to the collective prayers of the people who have heard my plea. I delivered a talk on Loving thy neighbor in one of the CLS a couple of weeks back and on that event, I closed my talk by asking the participants and the service team to pray for me for the struggle that I have been seriously dealing with, related to this commandment. When Prayers become a hit! Indeed, (after the talk) – a week had passed without a sign of that struggle I shared to…

14 February
This day has long been commercially celebrated. Millions of flowers and chocolates are being sold during this holiday and throughout the world, everyone has their own special way of celebrating it with their loved one. But how does this day actually become a sensational holiday? Let’s get into a little history class: It started with St. Valentine. Many believed that St. Valentine sent a letter to the woman he loves by signing it as “From Your Valentine” but it was actually a letter to her daughter who regains sight after believing that God answers our prayers. She was with him in his prison cell while waiting for…

Mamo & Dado @ 31
My 100th Blogpost will be a special post for my very own parents. Let me share you some of my fond memories with them as a tribute to this 2 awesome people of my life. They got married on this day, 31st Jan – 31 years ago, that was 1985. They met in one of the department store where they used to work. As years goes by they had me on their first year and followed by my brother – Glendann (Dan-Dan or Don Pasio) in 1987. I believe it was their choice to only have the 2 of us. Two, I guess is a good number to raise children…

Social Media 101 – Note to Self
Photo credits from: http://www.seointl.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Internet-Marketing-Social-Media-101-Training-Dubai-UAE.jpg Social Media. . . Last night I watched ABNKKBSNPLAko (A Filipino movie with Jericho Rosales on it) and on one of the scene Echo who plays Roberto (Bob Ong) discussed with his bff Ulo (played by Vandolph) about people sharing their life on social media; “What they are, where they go, their wife, husband, kids, boyfriend, girlfriend, foods they eat, the places they travel etc. Is it a benchmark of a person’s happiness? Sometimes social media is being used to hide the real scene of a person’s life, even showing the world you are ok when in fact you are at a point of breaking down.…
