God Whispers (by Bro. Bo)



Dear Friend,

Your wealth is your relationships. Fight for love.

Your Best Friend,
God

P.S. A happy person has happy relationships. A miserable person has miserable relationships.

Invest in your relationships more.

Roma in Italia

Buongiorno!

We love Italy. We had the opportunity to visit numerous lovely lovely churches in Rome. We captured photos inside and outside the picturesque structures. Even the doors are marvelous and have their own stories to tell.

Yas here is my camera buddy. We took pictures of each other for souvenir. Not quite sure who shot our photo together.

Great trip. Great company. Great moments!

Special Thank You

Yup "special thanks" to the youngest lady in the tour, Miss Yas, the camera angel besides our Preacher in Blue Jeans, Bro. Bo Sanchez.

She is the "kodak-me" Partner of the group, especially of Father Alex. She rendered her services with much satisfaction to her mom, to me and to Grace as well.

Yes Yas!

An Affair to Remember dvd

Here's a friend online and offline. This is Benj, my partner in training and emcee stints in our former employer. He's my "kumpare". His daughter Chiara is my god daughter.

He and his wife Fely renewed their wedding vows at St. Ignatius de Loyola Basilica in Spain. This is their special request as they celebrate their silver wedding anniversary this year. Congrats guys. Super! Behind them are Father Alex and Michael. Hey, that's me doing the video coverage.

A Freind in Lisbon

As the plane landed at the airport, we thank the Lord for a safe trip. Finally, after almost 18 hours of waiting and traveling (was at Ninoy Aquino airport at 6:30 am for the 10:45 am flight, then we left the Lisbon airport at 1:00 am the following day) in a couple of planes and airports, we are here, breathing Portuguese air.

We checked in at the Holiday Inn Continental, Lisbon.

This is an opportunity to show my gratitude to the best roommate (for almost 10 days, after which she preferred to leave me for Paris). To Lanee, thanks for a superb time together! Hope to see you again before Christmas and hopefully for another trip sometime next year. You and Europe will be cherished by me at the same level, to the max.

Find Friendship in a Foreign Land

Just got back from a trip in Europe where I traveled with a group of cool dudes. It was a spectacular pilgrimage with Bo as pilgrimage head, Adrian as our tour guide and Father Alex as our priest companion.

Adrian Panganiban is a former showbiz personality, who sings beautifully and Bo Sanchez himself is our Preacher in Blue Jeans.

This one is Lorna, the gal with a resounding, tingling laugh. She's the mom of Michael who's a very helpful guy. He's on my other post.

Beside me is the eighty-year old Nanay Cleofe with daughter Gladys, Lanee's sister. Lanee is my down-to-earth roommate in Portugal. Gladys, on the other hand, is a well-traveled individual as a result of her work. This time her trip is for their mother, but it turned out to be meaningful and relaxing for her as well.

This is the gang! We had a great time reviving our body, mind and spirit.

In front, there's young Yas and Paraluman-look alike mom Fran who went straight home to Pampanga after the trip. Hi too to the Davao Ladies, Grace and Mama Lina. Bro. Jake and his wife Pat, proceeded to London. There's my prayer partner Tita Adel, with her friends Tita Vicky plus Tita Rio and her pretty daughter Maricel, who was on her fourth visit to Lourdes. Miss you all!
