Lately I've been waking up in the morning feeling all sorts of panic. I've been losing sleep, juggling too many projects at the same time, getting my deadlines and commitments mixed up, having too many unanswered messages, drowning in lists, bills, codes. And then there's ...
Pursuit Manila: Music, Stories & Photographs
Last month I talked about how I met Julianne through Pursuit Community. You see, the amazing thing about pursuing your God-given dreams is that, you are never alone. When you step out in faith to pursue your dream, the Lord brings His people together to accomplish something ...
Grace Home: The Launch of a Dream
It hasn't been a while since I've met Grace Barbers-Baja. I only know her blog, The Spoiled Mummy, but our paths have never crossed until recently when she approached me for a project. She welcomed me to their lovely home, and it doesn't take a long time for anyone to see ...
Pursuit Manila: Thank God it’s Momday
It's been exactly a month since Pursuit Manila's special Mother's Day gathering at Karen's Kitchen. If you've been following the hashtags, you know that many of us couldn't stop talking about this gathering for weeks! Few days after the gathering, I tear up when I think about ...
Overcoming Fear, and Turning 32
It may be a running joke, that you lose track of your age when you reach 30, but it actually happens. These days, when someone asks me how old I am, I have to stop for a moment, think hard, and compute years in my head. Maybe forgetfulness comes with age. Maybe there are more ...
Pursuit Manila x Ashes to Beauty
When Julianne stepped into the room of Pursuit Manila's first ever gathering, fashionably late I must add (haha), I heard a collective gasp in the room. My gasp, included. Sure, I saw the names of the women who signed up, but since she went by (apparently) her real name, Julie, ...
Pursuit Manila Retreat & New Adventures
Three of the women in this photograph, Jamie, Madz and Love, I just met this year. One of them, Sheila, and I have been really good friends in high school and college, but other than exchanging online messages and comments here and there, I didn't see her all that much until this ...
Pursuit Manila: What’s Your Story?
A lot of people have been asking me what Pursuit Community is all about, and sometimes I find it hard to describe it in just one sentence! So I post these recaps of our gatherings to give you a picture of who we are and what we do. I hope these posts answer your questions with ...
Mommy Reflections & Easter Sunday Photographs
Sometimes, it just happens. A perfect long weekend. Followed by a perfect week. Even though there's really no such thing as perfect, perfect is just too good a word to not be used, especially if you mean something close. These photographs were taken on Easter Sunday. I have more ...
Love Him Well
My Dad wrote these words for me on my 18th birthday. Everyday I remember these words (and every year on March 26 I post it on my wall ️), praying that I will be able to love God well and that it will be evident in my actions, my thoughts, my life. Not an easy thing to do, ...
Trust Him With All Your Heart
Proverbs 3:5-6 is my life verse. For someone who can be so doubtful and skeptical and analytical, TRUSTING is just so hard for me to do. My tendency is to make calculated steps; often I find myself needing to see first before I believe. In the recent years God has taught me a ...
Sometimes, God Affirms in the Most Unlikely Places
A funny thing happened last Saturday while the four of us were grocery shopping. Landmark was closing and we had to rush, so my husband and I had to split, him with Dawn and me with Rain. So as I was pushing my cart through an isle of biscuits, a tall guy approached me. It ...
