Rizal

"We had luncheon and dinner at the Paternos, each one contributed one peso. With our fingers, we ate rice, stewed chicken, adobo, fritada, and roast suckling pig. We were Felix Resurreccion, Emilio and Esteban Villanueva, the two Paternos, the two Llorentes, Figueroa, Vicente Gonzalez, Raymundo Perio, Manuel Iriarte (the initiator), Eduardo Lete, Juan Fernandez, Federico Calero and me."


From Ambeth R. Ocampo's Inquirer column, "Looking Back."

"Christmas Letter from Jesus

When you look for me at Christmas                        You won't need a special star                                        I'm no longer just in Bethlehem                                    I'm right here where you are.                                    You may not be aware of me amid the celebrations.  You'll have to look beyond the stores,                      and all the decorations.                                              But if you take a moment                                        from your list of things to do                                        To close your eyes and say a prayer...                      I'm waiting here for you.                                       You're the one I want to be with.                        You're the reason that I came!                                  And you'll find me in the stillness                       Where I'm whispering your name."

"To the women who are labeled

Aggressive: Keep on being Assertive

Bossy: Keep on Leading

Difficult: Keep telling the truth

Too much: Keep taking up space

Awkward: Keep asking hard questions

Please don't shrink yourself to make people happy. Be yourself. You're  beautiful that way."
