“…in our spiritual journey we often have to learn old lessons again. It means we should be open, not so sure of ourselves, trusting in God to help us, ready to learn more and willing to be led by God’s hand.” – Henri Nouwen ‘Perfect!’ That’s one of my expressions. Unfortunately, I don’t embody [...]

Even leftovers are good for something
June 28th, 2011 
Iris Feeling out-of-sorts is a feeling I’ve grown accustomed to in the past few months. Though it’s hard to admit, I was (and still a little) bit prideful. I was used to being important, demanded after, even argumentative for its sake. I lived and breathed corporate life. I used to think I still do. But that [...]
Inspiration and levitation
June 27th, 2011 Iris There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, ‘Thy will be done’ and those to whom God says, ‘All right then, have it your way.’ -CS Lewis I’m done with the latter kind. I’m off to a new adventure; where to, I don’t know. But I know it started at once when [...]
We believe [lp]

June 17th, 2011 Iris [Peace] is seldom the result of much-having. It does not necessarily come with great success. Instead, it is the unexpected gift. It is the surprise. It is there even when we didn’t expect it. It remains even when the going is tough. And it can grow in the midst of pain and difficulty. -Henri Nouwen, [...]
Dive!
June 16th, 2011 Iris “The defensive partnership of Jason Sabio and Aly Borromeo evoked painful memories of the game against Mongolia in Ulan Bator. Shaky and tentative, they themselves would be the first to admit that this was not a classic defensive performance by either player. Shambolic defending by the central defenders led to at least two of the [...]
Bleach this.
June 15th, 2011 Iris Not the laundry-related kind, but the Photoshop kind. I told myself that I wouldn’t have the patience to learn Photoshop because it’s too nerdy and techie for me. But circumstances called for it, so might as well embrace the inevitable eh? So I recently discovered the bleach bypass effect on PS while searching for a [...]
Walang preno dito
June 9th, 2011 Iris Sa larong ito, walang preno-preno. When you see the shot, you take it. Sayang lang wala akong zoom lens kaya wala akong high action shots na nakuha. Wish ko lang na makakuha ang Philippine National football team, aka Azkals, ng support, hindi lang financially kundi ng suporta ng mga Pinoy. FYI, matagal na ang futbol [...]

Stranger #5: Taho #2
May 21st, 2011 Iris Stranger #5: Taho #2, a photo by morks on Flickr. Via Flickr: I don’t know if this qualifies as meeting the stranger, but I did ask manong to stay a while so we could take his picture. But whilst rummaging through our things for uhm, something, he left. And I had been busy figuring out [...]
