Secret of a Long Marriage
There was once a man and woman who had been married for more than 60 years. They had shared everything. They had talked about everything. They had kept no secrets from each other except that the little old woman had a shoe box in the top of her closet that she had cautioned her husband …
Helping Us Help You: Looking for the Perfect Gift
I’m always thankful for the things that my wife had been helping me with. For instance, since I hate shopping, she helps me with my shopping chores, including hunting for the perfect gift. I guess men are simply no good in shopping and worse in looking for gifts. So imagine my relief when, as we …
Ang Puno’t Dulo ng Pag-ibig
If you’ve reached this far, you are, in all probability, looking for love. Ok, maybe you’re not looking for love, but I bet you’re looking for something about love.

FAMILY
First off, let’s get things straight — no, I didn’t write this one, and, in my defense, my wife made me post it. If I sound defensive, you’ll know why when you get to the end of the — how to call it — poem? If you’re impatient to read the entire section without prior …

When I first held my newborn son . . . this song kept on playing in my head. This is one of those times when I can truly say: “When the stars won’t shine anymore, I’ll be there”.
False Hopes, Genuine Hopes
My wife was going through and arranging the contents of one of the cabinet drawers, when she found a bunch of old emails, written back when I was still courting her. It was part of my reply to her statement about not giving me any false hopes and about moving too fast. Anyway, my reply …

That’s what I said when I finally decided to get married (and I’m glad John Mayer nicely expounded, through a song, on what I was thinking). Alone, but never lonely, and you know what I mean. I lived alone in a condo, so could go out anytime I want. With a car, I could go …
