God is good

Good things just come through to my life despite the many confusion I find.

I have just completed my first article for a Filipino-run magazine here in Singapore that is mainly catered to domestic helpers. I feel so privileged after having been invited to contribute to the magazine. Finally, a chance for me to share my knowledge to one of the most marginalized Filipino group everywhere in the world. What makes the venture especially exciting is that I have been wishing to write to a newspaper or magazine audience for a while now. And now, that wish has just come true. Another one of my prayer has just been answered.

The magazine, Ako ay Filipino, comes with an issue every two months. I've made an arrangement with the publisher and editor to post my articles here in this blog once the issue is out, and he agreed. Having that liberty felt great. Not only would I be read in the magazine, I will also have the chance to share my article with friends who read my blog. I hope my writing will spur discussion amongst you who read my blog. I'm very excited about this new venture and I hope you'll find good things about reading my articles too.

Thank you all for bearing with me 'til this point, and I hope get in touch with all of you continuously.

Much love, Windel

Congratulations Bogchi!

Bogchi, our dog of three or four years have just given birth to three healthy grey puppies with body shape resembling that of a dalmatian.

We thought she'd never get pregnant again owing from how she'd stay away from boy dogs lately, but who knows about one's dog's fate. So again, we find ourselves delighted with our new family members and also rather burdened with making sure that the puppies get to good masters in the future. We've succeeded in finding good owners for our (Bogchi's) puppies in the past and we're delighted whenever we see our previous puppies under the good care of another. We've also failed at some attempts. Hopefully this time around we'll find successes for all three.

Ugly babies! :-D Beautiful as grown dogs! ;-)
