An Act of Integrity

-
This has been our favorite place for dgroup meetings. It's just a perfect place reserved by God for Bible study and fellowship. My pretty ladies can attest to that...! So as my christian friends...

Just want to share a short story of an act of integrity by their staffs last night.

As usual, together with my friends i went there for my favorite caramel frappe. That was around 5:30pm. We had to head back to CCF Eastwood for a short meeting, and decided to have dinner after in Mazza. When I was about to pay, that was past 8pm, only then when i found out that my coin purse was missing. I left my wallet at home so in my purse were all the money i have. Not to mention how much, and i don't think that matters, too.

I prayed then i grabbed my phone and i was about to message my family of what happened (we have fb chatroom) so they can either pick me up or have me picked up via grabcar/uber. Then I saw a message request in messenger. 

 

And so i told Van about it - ammm Van is one of my spiritual mentors, and my friend too. Van's initial reaction was, "Pray tayo." And so she led the prayer while we were waiting for Estela's message.

To cut the story short, Estela asked me to go to their store and get my purse. Good thing i have there my ATM card where she got my full name. She said that his barista, Jayvee was the one who got it. She introduced herself to me as Ms. Marie.

I praise God for people like them, who work with integrity. That character can never be paid back by money. Regardless how much i had in it, the act of really searching for me on Facebook just to return my purse which was lost due to my negligence... That made me wonder what kind of family they have, how do they live their lives, i want to know them more.

And i will....

My Tonsillectomy Journey

I don't know much about medical stuff, I took up BS ECE in college, and I am currently working as a supervisor in a BPO company. So pardon my innocence in this blog. I'm writing this for the sake of those who will and who are going through the healing process after a tonsillectomy. Hope this helps! I was scheduled to undergo tonsillectomy 10am of March 22nd. According to the doctors I consulted, having tonsillitis of more than twice a year isn’t normal - mine used to be more than twice a MONTH . Also, year after year of my APE in my workplace, I had been told that my tonsils were bigger than normal, which may be the reason why I was snoring and had difficulty in breathing most of the time. Of course, they talked to me in jargon. Don't worry, I would talk in a way easy for someone like me who isn’t good with medical terms understand it better. I had my flexible endoscopy on March 20, Tuesday. A friend, Lian, was with me. It was in Borough just ne...

Submitting to God's Plans

Remember this blog ? I can't help but write about what's next... I met a guy at work when I was in college. I was a working student. I loved him, and it was my heart's choice. Again, I let my heart rule. I was so into him, that I was even willing to leave my family for us. He smokes, he drinks, he didn't want to attend school, and worst thing is he cheated on me. From what I knew, it was only 3 times but it's no longer important. He broke up with me on our 3rd year anniversary. He chose to be with his girl, she was his officemate. My world crashed. For the very first time in my life, I went to a bar and cried over him. I couldn't remember what happened because I got myself so drunk that night. I was with my bestfriend. All I could remember was my brother picked me up, he brought me home and I was crying so hard that night. The next day, nanay brought me to the mall and bought me an mp3 player --- I wanted to have an mp3 player that time. I then realized...
