STRONG, IS SHE

She is strong. Not because of how much she can lift but for how she lifts others up when they're at their lowest. Not because she is capable of withstanding the storm but because she'll navigate the storm and then show you how to do the same. Not because she is indestructible but because after every fall, she will always, always rise. She is strong. Not because she chose to be but because the world demanded her to be. She has walked through hell, faced battles most will not comprehend and yet despite it all, she still chooses to be kind; to be soft at the hands of the world that tried to break her. Her strength comes from within. From learning how to turn pain into power, chaos into peace, wounds into wisdom. Strong is she, who knows her worth and refuses to settle for less. Strong is she, who will not back down, who will fight for what she believes in. Strong is she, who has love wrapped around her heart, courage knitted in her bones and fire running through her veins.

A baby is a wish your heart makes…

Author’s note: Sean and I, together with our immediate family, spent the entire night of December 28, 2023, decorating our wedding reception, which also served as our preparation venue. The men in our family, along with my future engineer sister, meticulously hung fairy lights in every tree. Meanwhile, the women dressed the tables and arranged the faux flowers with care.

It was undeniably exhausting, considering we were to be married the very next day. Yet, if you were to ask Sean and me whether we would do it all over again, our answer would be a resounding yes. Despite the fatigue, the unity we felt as a family was unforgettable.

Many times, hosting such events is made easier by hiring professionals. However, on this particular occasion, even with our diverse backgrounds, we all shared a singular mission: to create a reception that was not only beautiful but also imbued with warmth. This experience now forms a cherished core memory for us as a couple.

Author’s note: Any man can contribute genetic material and 'father' children, but being a father means something far more than that. It's about protecting, nurturing, and providing for your kids, teaching them what it feels like to be loved and valued. Fathers help shape the kind of people our world is filled with. The effects of how a man handles that vital role ripple on for generations, for good or for ill. Here's to the men who are up to the challenge, the ones putting their heart and soul into it. Men who can be counted on when their children need them. Whether you're a biological or adoptive dad, or perhaps a father-figure in someone's life, the world needs more of your kind, and we honor you this Father's Day.

If you see any goodness in me, pray for my mother, for she raised me that way.

Mama, I hope you’re proud of me. I took all the awful things they did, and turned them into empathy.

Mama, I hope you’re proud of me, I may have let their poison under my skin but I let it drip through my fingers as poetry.

I promise to find hope through the heartache, to find joy through the sadness, to find strength through incredible weakness, to love even when it's hard, to live freely and bravely, even when I'm scared, to make the most of my days... to live in a way that would make you proud.

I’m glad you exist. You heal my heart in so many ways. You’re always there for me when I need a best friend. Grateful for so much. But especially for you.

You are the best mother in the world.

ALWAYS IN OUR HEARTS

Sometimes in life there are losses. Losses that can never really be replaced. Losing you has been the hardest thing we've ever had to live with. We weren't ready to say goodbye.

We weren't ready to let you leave. We would give anything for just one more day, just one more second. But we've learned to trust in unconditional love. Because the one profound thing about death is that love never dies. Some bonds cannot be broken. Because even though you're not physically here, your heart is - it lives on within us.

We carry your heart inside ours. We carry it on days when we discover something new. We carry it on days when beauty unfolds in the most unexpected places. We carry it on days when we find courage to heal and to grow. We carry it with us — always.

Someday we will meet again - and we will no longer be separated by time or space. But until that day, we'll find comfort in knowing that you are still with us. Your heart safely tucked inside ours. Some hearts just belong together and nothing will ever change that.

We loved you then. We love you now. Always did. Always will. Forever in our minds. Forever in our hearts. We will carry you, Maw.

Ps. Sobbing while writing this. For those who do not know her, she was my grandma from my mama’s side. She was an angel on Earth. Everyone loved her and was fond of her. She had five loving children - always willing to share, help, and sacrifice for others just like her.

26/05/2024

A grandmother always has time for you, even if the rest of the world is busy.

So here’s my Lola-mommy from my papa’s side. She taught me classic wardrobe essentials, from scarves to shoes, my love for astrology, knowledge of Feng Shui, and, most of all, availability in church. She's the wife of a retired colonel and a mother of seven beautiful and wise children.

Until now, she gives me random stuff to bring home. The recent ones were a ledger (for my event planning), a fridge topper that has pockets for an advent calendar (even if it’s not Christmas yet), and a presko dress for gardening.

I find it funny and very thoughtful at the same time!

How sweet it is to be loved by you, Mommy. 💕

We are featuring super moms!

Starting off with one of the strongest moms I've witnessed this year—today, May 20th, is particularly special as it marks her 18th year of being a mom. She became a mom to me too!

Her support for anything artsy-crafty, mental well-being, and love for coffee been nothing but inspiring.

Now, we're sharing all the replied messages from all of you. Thank you for making this year's Mother's Day more meaningful than just fancy gifts, but an expression of love.

30/04/2024

"You look like your mother."

But do I have her heart?
Kind and forgiving.

Do I have her courage?
Carrying on through hardships with burdens on her shoulders.

Do I have her strength?
To be knocked down each day but to stand tall with a brave face.

Do I have her smile?
The one that puts us at ease, and makes us feel protected from the malicious world.

🌸

Author’s note: After reflecting on the memories of this past year with my mama, I've decided to make this year's Mother's Day celebration more meaningful. Remember what I said last time? I didn’t know I’d need my mom so much until I became a bride. She was the comfort in my restless thoughts.

So, as I pondered, what can we offer this year that won't break the bank but will definitely touch their hearts? …

55 days since…

Even now, each moment feels as if it just unfolded. We're still exploring each other, deciphering our love languages, and yes, even decoding our disagreements. As both of us are the eldest and naturally inclined to lead, it's an emotional journey. Yet, in the midst of it all, there's an overwhelming beauty in sharing this marriage, where every moment teaches us something new, making us choke up with gratitude.

Habambuhay: Sean + Mianne

Author’s note:
In the quiet rhythm of our rediscovered romance, Sean, ever the quiet soul, became a sweet architect of moments. Each time he set out to fetch me, a ritual unfolded. A visit to the nearby flower shop, where he'd choose a single-stemmed red rose – a simple yet profound testament to his quiet love. In those petals, he wove a story of effort not measured by price, but by the sincerity that danced in every heartbeat. Love, it seemed, had found its eloquent expression in the gentle bloom of a red rose.

AN ODE TO FEARLESS WOMEN

I think your bones
were made in an elsewhere place

How else does one explain this inconceivable strength that makes you.

The way you look into danger's mouth and see no cemetery or death

Instead, carve your name into its teeth with a switchblade, defeat it so effortlessly and throw your head back and laugh.

Paradox girl, mighty woman, you are the thing that terrifies them.

Both monster and maiden, both cure and poison, all of these things, and at the same time human.

Defined by no man, you are your own story, blazing through the world, turning history into herstory.

And when they dare to tell you about all the things you cannot be, you smile and tell them,

"I am both war and woman and you cannot stop me"

INTIMACY CRAVINGS
(that are completely normal & okay)

♥️ Desiring someone's time, attention, and affection (maybe even desiring it a lot!).
♥️ Wanting to feel physically, mentally, emotionally, and intellectually connected.
♥️ A desire for daily sexual intimacy… even multiple times a day!
♥️ Engaging in adventures & new experiences that create a shared sense of excitement, bonding, and closeness.
♥️ Wanting to fall asleep tightly in someone's arms.
♥️ Being aroused in various and non predictable ways (sensually, sexually, intellectually, emotionally, etc.).
♥️ Connecting through faith-based or spiritual practices (praying. meditation, shared beliefs, traditions, rituals, etc.).
♥️ Active engagement in flirting, teasing, physical & emotional foreplay, and interactions that build chemistry & tension.
♥️ Being intellectually stimulated; getting lost together in deep & thoughtful discussions.
♥️ Feeling safe, nurtured, adored, and taken care of.

From PH to Croatia with love.

WHY ARIES ARE GREAT

Aries are extremely passionate and are very up front about everything. They have nothing to hide. Their competitiveness is a charm and once they set their eyes on something, they will get what they want. They aren't scared of rejection, and they will love aggresively and passionately.

A bouquet for one of my favorite Aries women in the universe & someone I could always look up to for the rest of my life. 💕

Marriage is not beautiful.

Marriage is ugly, you see the absolute worst in someone. You see them when they're mad, sad, stubborn when they're so unlovable they make you scream. But you also get to see them when they are laughing so hard that tears run down their face, and they can't help but let out those weird gargling noises.

You see them at 3 am when the world is asleep except you two, and you're eating in the middle of the kitchen floor. You get to see the side of them that no one else does, and it is not always pretty. It is snorting while laughing, it is the tears when it feels like it's all crashing down, it's the farting, it's the behead and bad breath, it's the random dances, it's the anger and the joy.

Marriage isn't a beautiful thing, but it is amazing. It's knowing that someone loves you so much, and won't leave you even though you said something nasty.

It's having someone have your back no matter what. It's fighting over stupid things like someone not doing the dishes or picking up after themselves.

And it's those nights you fall asleep in each other's arms, feeling like there will never be enough time with them. It's cleaning up their throw up, or just rubbing their back when they're sick. It's the dirtiest, hardest, most rewarding job there is.

Because at the end of the day, you get to crawl into bed with your best friend, the weirdest, most annoying, loving, goofy, perfect person that you know.

Marriage is not beautiful,
but it's one heaven of a ride.

Why throw confetti over the newly married couple on their wedding day?

Throwing beautiful confetti over newly weds, is a tradition that's been present in weddings for over two centuries. Confetti used to symbolise the wish of a fertile marriage.

Whilst the symbolism may have shifted, the celebration act and capturing the moment forever has stuck! The confetti throw is the start of the party and one for the wedding album too.

The call for natural petal confetti began as churches and venues preferred it to paper or synthetic confetti. These days real flower petals are a must have for throwing confetti, they're beautiful, romantic, fun, colourful, environmentally friendly and always natural.

Getting the ultimate confetti photo is now one of the most important photos of the day, everyone is smiling, having fun and it's the start of the party! 🍂

DISTANCE

The space between the two of you may be hard now, but over time your distance will strengthen the love that is there.

The moments you have together are the ones you'll learn to cherish and remember when the time between you becomes longer.

I know it's hard to see now, but the love between you will keep growing, even when you are apart.
