COUSIN GIGI

Last night 4/26/23 I met with my 2nd cousin Gigi who is on vacation from Saskatchewan, Canada. We met at Starbucks in Ayala Center Cebu. I gave her some pasalubong; she gave me pasalubong too: Tim Horton's Coffee, Victoria's Secret lotion, chocolates and hand sanitizer man to. I gave her otap and mango tamarind candies. Nagchika ra gud mi oi kay morag hiskul p lagi mi last nagkita. She went to Saudi Arabia man gud after graduating from SWU. Aloha Gi, safe travels and keep in touch lang jud! I shared the Tim Horton coffee to my siblings in Bohol. Lipay pud sila ;)

Fresh Pick

A Return to Love, by Marianne Williamson
(as quoted by Nelson Mandela in his inaugural speech, 1994)

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that frightens us.

We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?

Actually, who are we not to be?

You are a child of God.

Your playing small doesn't serve the world.

There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.

We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.

It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone.

And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.

As we are liberated from our own fears, our presence automatically liberates others.

--The Power of Focus, 2000, by Canfield, Hansen and Hewitt, p. 159
