Roti Boy Kopi Kind of Girl

Thats right, ' kopi ' (coffee) runs through my veins.  I run by its fuel, and a day without it feels incomplete. Not really a coffee connoisseur, just an avid coffee drinker. While  I'm all for those artisanal coffee drinks bursting with exotic flavors with hints of delicious secrets (shoutout to my lovely niece A with J & their crowdpleaser coffee pop-ups!! 🀀), i'm also just as keen for a simple mug of a 3-in-1 instant coffee packet.

🎸Uke It: Kahit Maputi Na Ang Buhok Ko

One of my all-time fave Original Pinoy Music (OPM) by Mr. Rey Valera.  Reminds me of dad & mum, all their love and also the heartaches in between. Nobody is perfect and nobody's love is perfect, but God and God's love is. I have witnessed in their marriage, the loyal love of God,   at the center, holding them both together, individually and as one, keeping them sane, preserving them, making sweet waters out of the bitterness. Reminds me of Daddy God's promise: Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you. Isa 46:4 Were it not for Christ Jesus, where else would every relationship go, but downhill, no matter how well-meant, willpower can only go so much; but the loneliness and hurts inside, the pride, and selfishness, truly, only the Lord Jesus can heal those. The good in every relationship that we see around?  That's God at work there, even if we don't see...
