Wow Surprise!!!

I like surprises. The good ones, of course. So I was happily surprised to receive an email from the Philippine Star online team that the article/s I submitted was among the six judged as the best. (Basis : story and pictures)

 

Seeing my article posted online was a joy in itself. Being considered as one of the good ones was marvelous. But to receive a prize? That was great! The online team never announced that they were giving away goodies. But last Wednesday, 6 amateur writers/photographers were the happy recipients of WOW Magic sing microphones and goodie bags!

 

This is the second time I received something for writing. The first one was a trip for two to Boracay. That was 8 years ago. 

 

Now who wants to sing?

 

Thank you Philippine Star Online team and Wow Magic Sing!  

And thank you God!

Lion Chaser Manifesto

Quit living as if the purpose of life is to arrive safely at death. Set God-sized goals. Pursue God-ordained passions. Go after a dream that is destined to fail without divine intervention. Keep asking questions. Keep making mistakes. Keep seeking God. Stop pointing out problems and become part of the solution. Stop repeating the past and start creating the future. Stop playing it safe and start taking risks. Expand your horizons. Accumulate experiences. Enjoy the journey. Find every excuse you can to celebrate everything you can. Live like today is the first day and last day of your life. Don't let what's wrong with you keep you from worshiping what's right with God. Burn sinful bridges. Blaze new trails. Criticize by creating. Worry less about what people think and more about what God thinks. Don't try to be who you're not. Be yourself. Laugh at yourself. Quit holding out. Quit holding back. Quit running away.

Chase the lion.
