Mom's World of Arts and Happiness

“ By the time of the Great Depression, the T-shirt was often the default garment to be worn when doing farm or ranch chores,”  I’d like to share a simple story. Honestly, I don’t like this shirt, but things happen naturally as I go through with my life. Oftentimes I find myself randomly picking this shirt when I’m in a rush. Out of the comfort it brings I came to notice its significance. With a touch of white blended with pink makes it even simpler knowing that much of history can be found in this apparel we call T-shirt. So many ways it served us yet failing to see the importance of it. As I flip through the photo albums, the photos retell the occasions but seeing the shirt reminded me of the feeling at that very moment. A momentous occasion, that as a mother, I search for essentials over preferences. Although the great depression is part of history now, but the association of it still prevails that my shirt is part of my household chores. As it twirls around the washing machin...

A little luck coupled with a special invite led me to attend a special screening for the grand premiere of GMA’s boldest epicserye, AMAYA , scheduled to air on May 30 lined up along the network's primetime telebabad block. The weather always seemed to make a commotion on important events such as this, and so it became a battle of wills between the storm and the fans to see who would be brazen enough to leave the comforts of their home to head over to SM North Edsa the Block Cinema 2.

A story set in Central Visayas in the 1500s, at the time when our country had yet to encounter the "light of education" brought by the Sp...

I love you I hate you. How many times did we say that? How many person have we meet that those words where delivered? The Temptation of Wife is a program worth watching for. Not that I recommend that you be a " Kabit " or a "2nd Wife" for that matter. The story was close to the drama that we wife goes through because of his love to his husband. It's also a story of a 2nd women who will do anything to get the man she loves and to give her child a father. A man who don't have a backbone but in the end stand beside his love. Every character portray is driven by desire. Desire to love, desire to be loved, desire for revenge, desire for a child lost. The story shows how strong the woman is. To be able to go through many trials and pains but still emerge as a winner. How painful it may be, but in the end, the love in our hearth makes see the true meaning of life. Many of the line delivered will make you cry for it touches the hearth of every woman. The st...
