When God Shows No Favorites
There are days when it feels unfair. Parang kahit anong sipag mo, parang may mas nauna sayo. Parang kahit gaano ka ka-consistent, parang laging kulang.

Yung mga araw na parang paulit-ulit lang, routine na parang nakakawalang gana, na halos nakalimutan ko na yung fire ng creativity ko.. ikaw yung bumungad at nagsabing, “Hey, bumangon ka ulit.” This month, I tried going back to practicing creativity.

One Line on Paper Beats a Thousand in Your Head
Have you ever had a day when your head just feels… too full? Deadlines piling up, emotions tugging at you, random ideas popping in and out. Parang browser na ang daming tabs na naka open, lahat naglo-load, pero wala talagang clear direction kung ano ang uunahin. And here’s the thing: our brains aren’t built to…
