Her soul contained a universe waiting to be seen

Lowest Point

I’m currently at the lowest point of my life and to be honest, I don’t need another set of people who’ll judge and misunderstand me. And lastly, I don’t need another “perfect” story of someone’s LIFE just to feel ridiculed of myself again.

Apparently, I do not require validation from anyone who don’t know me, my story and the struggles I’ve been through.

Friends and family have always been supportive of my journey to reaching my dreams and the decision making that comes with it. If I could have just them around, I would. And as much I would want to shut my door to these strangers, I couldn’t.

The only thing I’m gonna do is stop at nothing. Don’t mind what people are gonna say, and effin carry on!!!

Have you ever had that feeling— that you’d like to go to a whole different place and become a whole different self?

Airports are made beautifully to lessen the pain and fear of leaving loved ones behind. And to not stress the fact that there's never a good thing in "goodbyes" 🙇🏻‍♀️ (at Clark International Airport)

Pretty isn’t what you wear or how you do your hair; pretty is how you talk to others when you don’t want to talk to anyone at all.

When you lowkey wanna give up so bad, but of course, you can't because your future is at sake here.

The thing about God is He does things His own way. You won’t understand it at first but after you obey, it will all make sense.

Getting Older

I just turned 21 recently, and you know when you're younger you think that when people reach a certain "age" they're more knowledgeable about things and resilient about problems? Well, it doesn't work like that anymore when you realize you're older and maturing. No matter how old you are there are still tons of things you are yet to learn, overcome and explore. Learning doesn't stop, it's never ending in fact. Well, on the other hand, do not let yourself get stuck in what position you are at the moment in your life. Let growing be the your goal for a lifetime! Explore, fly and spread your wings.

Let us give credit to this girl worth fighting for

It is time to give credit to Mulan for teaching young girls that love is not boxed into finding a man who can sweep you off your feet. She has taught us how to love our country and family—even saving China at the end of it all. Mulan may not be our typical Disney “princess”, but this soldier has given us more than honor—she has given us inspiration to see past our reflections and become the person we want to be.

We may not find a girl like her in every dynasty, she may have proved that one woman can be the difference between victory and defeat, but most of all she inspired us to be true to our hearts.

Yes, the matchmaker may have not believed that she’ll ever bring her family honor, but Fa Mulan surpassed all expectations and proved to everyone that she definitely is a girl worth fighting for.

Optimism is the Key

Valuable lessons are often rooted from past mistakes. 

As we grow older, we already have our fair share of frustrations, disappointments and the like, sure. There’s nothing shameful about that. But sometimes, it’s all just a matter of optimism and belief that, sure, you can do it too, like the others. There’s a saying that, “If they can, you can too.” I believe that yourself should be your biggest motivator and pusher in doing things you’re doubting of accomplishing. Who knows, one day, you’re at the top of the Empire State Building banging your chest for being proud of all the things you did in order for you to reach your long-term goals, eh? Because let’s just be honest, after going through everything, a tap on one’s back is not enough. Am I right? HAHA.

What I’m saying is, these obstacles or trials in life is not what matters when you reach your dreams, the important thing is, you strive and strive until you secure the future you always wanted for yourself and of course, your family. 

Accomplishing goals? Reaching the “dream”? All these will be done, if you believe that you are also capable of acquiring something for yourself just like the person you always envy for his or her “big things in life.” 

Everything is possible with sufficient faith and optimism!

Nothing But Positive Vibes

I firmly believe that if you start your week right with all the positive vibes, eventually it will radiate in your mood, and most probably, you’re going to end your week in the same way - another reason, why I always attend Saturday or Sunday mass is because being blessed and hearing His words, for sure, you’ll feel more blessed than ever. 

Having that said, I attended the mass at school, instead of the one held on the weekend prior to that. And I felt so good, light and better without having to complain even about petty things. Being a person with full of positivity in oneself surely shows of your perspective in your everyday life.
