 The power of pictures, words and emotions.

Every person has their own story to tell.

60-40

This blog tells mine.

570. maybe being effusive isn't THAT bad.

...because having you in my life is a blessing abounding by itself.

569. so this is what it feels...

There’s more here than what were seeing
A divine conspiracy
That you, an angel lovely
Could somehow fall for me

There are no words here left to say, it’s true
God gave me you

Each day is a day I'm thankful.
Sincere prayers do get answered.

568. thanks Dad

It's such a blessing to have someone who accepts you despite your imperfections.
I couldn't be grateful enough.

567. a month passed by

Didn't realize how long I was out of the loop 'til I saw that my last entry was dated July 1.
Whoa.

So how's everyone doing?

566. need VOTES! :)

I joined Canvas Thread's T-shirt designing contest, under the category of Cause Challenge. It was my first time to do so, and I'm glad that I already had 17 users who voted for my design. It only takes a minute or two to vote. It really means a lot, especially to the foundation* I'm supporting.

*In case the entry wins, the prize will go to GMA Kapuso Foundation, a charity my design is supporting.

Sum of All Parts

Description: 

The shirt design was inspired by "Operation Bayanihan", a relief foundation that provides assistance to Filipino families affected by man-made and natural calamities. Fact: Philippines is one of the world's most accident-prone countries; thus, considered as "...a natural laboratory for floods, typhoons, monsoon rains,earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and landslides." Sans the seemingly overwhelming disasters, Filipinos remain to be one of the world's happiest people --- always optimistic and ready to smile against all challenges. That being said, it is only time to play a part to the cause. As Christians, it is only right to say, "we're in this TOGETHER".

To vote, please register (if you do not have an account) and select the number you think is most appropriate for my design. I'd appreciate if you do :)

562. fin!
