Happy Christmas to one and all!

Joy to the World!

To Him who is King...
...we raise our voices in Thanksgiving as he brings the gift of Love and Hope!

Sari-sari...

"Sari-sari" is "variety" in Filipino. This blog is about the variety of things I'm passionate about, and things that are interesting to me at the moment... just (almost) never about work!

One can dream...

...but there's no such thing as pie-in-the-sky kind of a dream. There's only love, faith, good intentions, perseverance, optimism, sense of humor, passion - lots of it... and the joy of living the dream! :)

Big or small...

...we can turn every single thing that we do everyday to a prayer. And prayer is a conversation with God, an interaction with God, an offering to God... being one in spirit with God.

Great or small...

...for as long as our intentions are good, unselfish and right, every achievement counts. Success is not about fame and glory, not about wealth and power, it's about good intentions... and enjoying the exhilarating adventures of working very hard to translate good intentions to good deeds.

Big girls, little girls...

...'girls will be girls'. And yet, simplicity = glamour.

Ours is an incredibly wonderful world...

...a gift from God, and it deserves to be explored, appreciated, and cared for... with wonderful people, in the spirit of true friendship!
