I Remember Tatang
Sometimes, it seems, that the people who are closest to us are the same people we know the least. People would often first trust a complete stranger who impresses rather than a neighbor who has been helping them out over … Continue reading
Thinking of the End-time
As I approach the evening of my life, I often think of things people my age think about: what else? how will it end? when will it come? what would I be doing then? I sometimes think of my “final … Continue reading

If eyes were made for seeing, why do I fail to see so many things? I always wake up to a beautiful morning, why do I fail to see beauty the rest of the day? The eyes indeed were made … Continue reading
A Great Love Story
I have often mused about the love story between Jesus and Mary Magdalene. Theirs must have been a wonderful relationship with a great deal of affection between the two of them. Jesus was a close friend of their family and He … Continue reading
