Breaking Your Mental Barrier and live in another city: A lot of people do not attempt to change their life in any way. Most people I know are content living in one community and for a time I was this kind of person. I am afraid to get outside my boundaries and often thought that what I considered universal truths was the same for everyone. For the last 7 years, all of my attention was focused in one area. I thought that I would be living in Baguio City for the rest of my life. It seemed that everything that I wanted to do was in this city. There are artists and musicians everywhere and the events and occurrences seemed too important to let go. But the Universe had other plans for me. I had to leave everything behind, the community that I know, the friends that I am comfortable with and even my hometown. You see, Baguio City will comfort you to sleep—it is a silent city, with eternal fog and misty season for the entire year. It was comfortable to live in Baguio--- too

Why  hatred for Ferdinand Marcos will not help solve the Philippines There has been a lot of comments posted on social media about the issue, should we bury Ferdinand Marcos as a hero? I will not provide arguments as to why he is not a hero or why he should be considered as one. The main issue that I would like to tackle on is the hatred. The hatred posts, the foul language, the debates between friends, strangers and family members on this issue is using up a lot of energy- energy that could have been used to talk about new projects for the country. Energy that could have been used for self-development. The issue is not whether he is a hero or not, but what is this hatred doing to everyone? Social media is a useful tool if maximized-- but in pursuing the endless debate on whether he should be buried or not is causing much hate to resurface. The hate that will not propel anyone to move on, perhaps this is the reason why Duterte wants the man laid to rest- so we could

Why is my life so abundant? I have written about the law of attraction and the Guidance of the Divine spirit on my last column.  In this article, I would be discussing more about how to maximize the use of law of attraction. I heard of the law of attraction when I was just 21 years old and it is still working for me up to this very day. When I was 19 years old I was pretty much a negative person. I blamed my mother for my experiences and did not appreciate my life. Most of the time my mind is drawn to the negative circumstances that are happening around me and because of this- there had been many times where I was drawn into thinking about suicide. After watching the movie, “The Secret: and reading the book by Rhonda Byrne.  A lot of things have changed in my life, this is because something was awakened inside of me—my consciousness expanded. How I start the day? In the past, I don’t really consider meditation as a part of my daily routine. I just wake up and

A lot of us try to decide our lives thinking that we are in control, or the logical mind is in control. We view reality as one dimension and many have yet to awaken- I have been like this for a very long time, it is always with the belief that If I am intelligent, if I am talented, If I can write  a book, if I can create a concert event, if my works are getting published then my knowledge and understanding of life is correct. It resulted to many years of highs and lows- and definite confusion in the end. The truth is, when a person is walking and dealing with life without Divine Inspiration- everything will still crumble. Today, in order to shift the negative energy occurring in my life-- I decided to take a walk in Makati and Ayala in Metro Manila.  I am new to the place and have no idea where I am going- just like my life in the past, most have been a series of listening to one person to another thinking that my life goals is somehow connected with a person's dreams.
