Forgiveness
FORGIVENESS
is hard when
the
pain
is
deep
but
it’s
a
choice
that
will
make
the
heart
bigger
and
the mind
at
peace.
In The Womb
in the womb…
a union of
free spirits
joined together
formed a life
continued to
grow inside
naïve, innocent
until it’s time
to bear the fruit
it should be
nourished
fostered
raised
until it matured
to become
descendants
the bloodline
of humanity…
The Battle
the battle
has never ended
it’s a continuous
journey through
life’s most
agonizing traits
a world
where no one
can defeat
what is bound
just full
of uncertainties
yet, beyond
any human fate
lies the unbroken
promises of the
future.

"Saengil Chukahaeyo Aya!"
Looks so familiar? Sounds so familiar? With the tremendous impact of Korean culture, it sure does. Since our birthday celebrant, should I say, is a certified "army", this is how I would like to greet her.
My daughter Aya, as we fondly call her, is sincere, honest, trustworthy, sensitive yet compassionate, thoughtful in her own ways, straightforward, and always true to herself. She may be emotional at times but she manages to keep her faith when challenges hit her.
I always pray that she may achieve her dreams and aspirations in life. That God will grant her the realization of her heart’s desires and bless her with abundance... may it be financial or spiritual.
May our loving and generous God, offer her the virtue of kindness, patience, understanding, perseverance, and all the goodness that may be pleasing to others and to our Lord, above all.
We're more than a mother-daughter relationship now because we grow closer as the struggles in life make our bond stronger.
HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY ONE AND ONLY DAUGHTER, AYA!!! I love you to the moon and back.
Squid Game and the 10 Things You Should Know About the Game
