One Note To A Stranger

You don't know me. I don't know you either except that you're one of the lead characters in SP. Anyway, the real reason why I'm writing is to let you know that I came across your Patreon platform. So, you are also a storyteller among other things! 

The moment I clicked play for free and heard your voice, I cried unexpectedly. It's because it brought back memories to the core. At those times when I had difficulty sleeping, I would ask my now-late husband to tell me stories. Without hesitation, he made up stories to put me to snooze-mode, literally. He had a sense of humor so there were times that instead of me dozing off, I would be wide-awake because we were laughing at his antics! Just the same, if he knows that I really needed to rest especially after a long day at work, he intentionally shifts his voice to low, soothing, and tender whispers. Too bad, I couldn't remember his stories because, of course, I was already in dreamland even before they ended! I would like to believe that it was not actually the stories that made me fall fast asleep but it was because of his voice assuring me that I'm safe.

It's been a rough 2026 year for me and it's exactly seven months today. Grief comes and goes like an unpredicted, turbulent storm at sea. But I thanked my Lord God for for He sees me through my lowest moments as I entrust in Him my days.

I don't expect you to find my blog, however, if you read this,  thank you for your time. I pray for your continued success in all your artistic talents and other entrepreneurial ventures. And, if you’re already up there in a pedestal, still, stay humble. Lastly, may you find someone who shares your passion, who, also in turn, would be kind and be gentle with your heart.

One Mini-Series Film

I have never imagined myself to be so enamored by a TV mini-series until watching Seeking Persephone. I came across SP through a platform which has been showing snippets from the film in my social media reels. Out of curiosity, I told myself I might just watch it to give myself a break.  At first, I thought it was just a one-time movie but after realizing it was a mini-series, I convinced myself to give its first episode a try. Well, as it turned out, I watched the entire movie in one sitting to finish all four episodes in less than four hours! And the truth is, I still can't get over it after binge watching it. Since then, I've been hooked! I've rewatched it over and over again for the nth time --- yes, nth because I've lost count on the number of times I've seen it considering that I just recently joined the bandwagon almost three weeks ago, to be exact. After rewatching it, I could see more nuances and have been connecting the dots to unfold the hidden emotions ...

One April month

It was a one-of-a-kind trip cycle , if there’s such a phrase as that as my good-natured Filipina friend and I flew down to South Florida from the Northeast. We went around the place by land. Then we crossed the sea on board a cruise ship to Bahamas. We went back to Florida on cruise, toured the city by land again before heading back home by plane. It all happened in three different places for seven nights and eight days. One nature tripping day Our trip to Ft. Lauderdale, FL last April 14-17 was mostly spent on nature tripping. My friend and I went to a fishing port somewhere in Palm Beach Shore; we had a chance to see different kinds and sizes of fishes in the open sea aquarium while looking at them from the boardwalk. The experience was like snorkeling without getting wet or seeing them in a glass bottom boat minus the boat ride. There were fishing boats for rent and a lot of yachts on deck. There was even a family of four who went out fishing and came back with different sizes of k...

New York City

When I think of NYC, it reminds me of soaring skyscrapers, the musicals in Broadway, the solid Statue of Liberty, the historic Ellis Island, the verdant Central Park, the blinking lights at Time Square, the memorable Empire State, the American heritage Hudson River, the financial districts of Wall Street, the diversed people hustling and bustling in broad day light, the blowing of horns in busy streets, the colorful and dancing lights at night, to name a few. There seems to be endless activities going on 24/7! No wonder it is well-known as the City that Never Sleeps.
