A Prayer Before I Sleep

Thank you Lord for the gift of life a life that I can share with those who have learned to accept me as I am. Thank you Lord for the gift of writing a talent that has become rare because more have become enamored of making noise without meaning. Thank you Lord for the friends that you gave me for...

Between Memory and Hope

This morning, the Academic Senate of our school decided on the theme "Moving On, Between Memory and Hope" for this year's commencement exercises. That last phrase pleased me. After all, what we are in the present is a product of a past; and the future is borne out of the decisions we make in the... Sign in to see full entry.

Me A Millionaire?

This is an update on the article I posted sometime ago with the same title. I sent an SMS message my Dad this morning to warn him about some people who might be "verifying my identity" in order to make sure that I am the one who recently won one million dollars in an internet lottery.

The Web Friar

The first web friar known in the web is a Dominican, Albert Glen Judy, OP.

Among us, Augustinians, there are at... Sign in to see full entry.

Like My Mom

The older I get, the more I realize that I take after my mom. My mom never throws anything away. It may be a receipt, a magazine, a piece of paper where she has scribbled some note or address, a notebook or a text book. She has collected so much over the years and kept them in the master bedroom... Sign in to see full entry.

Moving On

Not All My Bags Are Packed I spent the whole afternoon packing my books, notes, article collections and succeeded in putting them in seven boxes. And that is not even half of the things I have to pack! I don't like transferring from my convent to another. For the past year I have been floating the... Sign in to see full entry.

Page From A Diary: June 2001

A lull at the office brought fruitful results. When I got freed from my morning tasks, I joined an ongoing conversation among my working scholars and staff about love, sex and romance. It was girl's talk at first, until I got baited in to join. The topic? How men look at love-relationships. I may... Sign in to see full entry.
