Filipino Catholics celebrate the Feast of Black Nazarene today
– a unique and one of the biggest Catholic traditions in the Philippines. Devotees believe that wiping a piece of cloth
or touching the image can bring miracles, cure illnesses and obtain plenary
indulgence for sins. Faith comes in different ways. Indeed, faith can move us
in many ways, too.

Green Pastures
The old adage, “the
grass is always greener on the other side of the fence,” is hard to
believe. What I believe is that - in order for something to stay in bloom, we have to nurture it, no
matter what side of the fence we are on.
The Cliff
The
literal meaning of a cliff is a mass of rock that rises very high and is almost
vertical like a wall. It is a popular
term used in the government. It may have a negative connotation, but the beauty
of it is that - when you think it is the end of the road and you have nowhere to go, you would
realize that the journey you have taken to reach the cliff wasn’t easy. Then you
would back off, and find another path to continue your journey.
