No despot stays in the sky forever. There is a day of reckoning for everything, for every life stolen and for every tear shed.

I'm a big fan of the "GPS Theory" when you miss a turn, your GPS doesn't judge you, it recalculates. No matter how many detours you take, it finds another way forward. Life works like that too. You'll make mistakes, but your destination doesn't vanish. The route just changes.

Your death will come on an ordinary day, in the middle of unfinished plans and the world will continue without you. So live a little.

May lakad muna ang “bulawan nga bata”! See you next year. 😉 @ayalamuseum ’s latest exhibition “Turning Tides: Maritime Encounters and Exchanges of Power” will open this July 16, 2026 and will run until February 14, 2027.

So we pivot. And we find a way. And we keep going.

Also got one of those inserting thru my normal BDO SMS alerts when I was in Baguio last week:

Quite tricky and scary actually that phishing texts can actually insert itself within the text inbox of legit apps like BPI. Hope @enjoyGLOBE and @TalktoBPI can do something about this.

I am OBSESSED with this sentence: “A head full of fears has no space for dreams.” damn.

Mukhang mas magaling magturo ang ibang law school ng statutory construction. 🤣

@ItsTitoAaron Haha, yan talaga nakita mo!

One of my exciting acquisitions this year is this tall pinhead image of the pregnant Virgin Mary which came from an estate of an American collector. I would attribute it to the Bohol carving tradition, and stylistically should not be later than the early 19th century.
