ME-ASSURED Some people have more money, better positions, more beauty, greater power, more accomplishments. How do you measure success? How do you measure a person? How do you measure yourself? Should we? "...yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little … Continue reading ME-ASSURED (Measured Ninang? ๐)

PONDERSOME PREACHING 1
PONDERSOME PREACHING 1 There are preachings that move us to the core during which we can't even take notes. And there are those that give new knowledge and insight that one can't help but take notes. Some preachings make us cry and laugh at the same time. Some give us peace (You mean make you … Continue reading PONDERSOME PREACHING 1
THE SCALES ARE HIGH
(You mean "Stakes" Ninang? ๐ฌ) Do you get that look? The "why is she here" look. Sometimes the look of a warm and joyful surprise. But at times, undeniably "i don't think you should be here" doubts. They are not really questioning your credentials or your motives, well maybe a bit of the latter. They … Continue reading THE SCALES ARE HIGH
NINANG PONDERINGS 6
I PONDER... ๐ค 1. Greed is not a state of the pocket, but a state of the heart. ย (Well, obviously... but wait..๐ค) "Greed is relative. Greed is not defined by what something costs; it is measured by what it costs you. If anything costs you your faith or your family, the price is too high." … Continue reading NINANG PONDERINGS 6
THE BIG PICTURE
THE BIG PICTURE Through which we see, we respond. That which we see commands how we react. But we can look another way. You know-- and see the Big Picture. Can you see the big picture? You were hurt. You were ignored by someone you love. You were criticized. But everybody else has been. Do … Continue reading THE BIG PICTURE
It’s A Ponderful Life! (NINANG PONDERINGS 4)
It's a Ponderful Life! (NINANG PONDERINGS 4) 1. Our hardwork is not meant to justify our demands of others but to inspire others to demand of themselves.

MORE THAN NICE (!)
More than Nice (!) Save for hearing it from the song that goes "..I've been to Nice, and the isle of Greece, while I sipped champagne on a yacht.." I didn't ย know anything about Nice, France; and, yes, what's actually niceย ๐ about it. The decision to come was not to do sightseeing as much as … Continue reading MORE THAN NICE (!)
THE ROAD TO (UN)SUFFERING
THE ROAD TO (UN)SUFFERING I say suffering is a dearth of love. We suffer when we lose a loved one, or when a loved one refuses to love us, at least the way we want to be loved. The mental and emotional anguish cannot be quantified. No one wants to suffer. We all want to … Continue reading THE ROAD TO (UN)SUFFERING
You’re One Dear Woman!
DEAR WOMAN... Do not let any man see you less than who you really are. You are similarly precious in God's sight. Do not let anyone determine the limits of what you can do and who you can be. God's purpose for you is as noble as God's purpose for anybody else. You can speak … Continue reading You’re One Dear Woman!
DEBATE? D’BAIT? (‘di)*ABATE?
DEBATE? D'BAIT? ('di)*ABATE? Debate- arguing especially in a formal manner. I don't like debating. But somehow in many circumstances I find myself arguing for my position. My highschool classmate thought I was going to be a lawyer since we debated often (did you win Ninang? "He said, always ๐"). But I want to believe I … Continue reading DEBATE? D’BAIT? (‘di)*ABATE?
