Happy Thanksgiving!!! “In all circumstances give thanks, for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus.” 1 Thessalonians 5:18
I went on a silent retreattwo weeks ago and I went into that retreat with a deep sense of gratitude for the life God’s blessed me with was such a priceless treat that it would take me hours and hours to try to explain. But one grace I walked away from that retreat…

Another Vacation with God Begins Tomorrow!

Yes, I am going on another vacation with God and it’s a Silent Retreat this time around! It’s been nearly 7 months after my Caritas 41 Retreat back in April. I have yet to make an official post about my retreat experience because so much has happened since then but I have enjoyed sharing my experience offline with some of my friends I have spent time with since.

I write this post because…

Inspired by a day filled with great discussion amongst a community of content creators and storytellers. 💯

Overall takeaway: We all have a unique story to tell. We have to own and know our story to share with the world through whichever platform we decide to use.

I can’t believe Katherine Ho gets a triple-montage treatment! I wish I could have listened to her sing at least once! Keep doing your thing Katherine. Your #Wildest Dreams song was amazing. Your fellow contestants said you’re amazing! Keep singing!

Hello again! 2 years have passed?!

Hello my dear friends and to anyone that may be reading this.

It’s been extremely long since I posted on this blog. I think it’s time to make a return. So much has happened since my last post. I confess I stopped posting in the middle of Lent, 2 years ago. One of my Lenten challenges did not fall through for a second time.

I can’t wait to share with you all bits and pieces of the past 2 years. I…

Why We've Been MIA for 2 Years:

Many of you have wondered why we dropped off the face of the planet right after the release of our 3rd album “Humanity” in 2011. We didn’t film any music videos, did very little promotion and never released it on iTunes. For a while, we kept silent…

Always supporting you guys!! Your music touches people and your amazing selves and resiliency is even more inspiring! Never stop and I hope that you get through all the struggling! I know God has blessed you and will keep blessing you!

With love,
Your fan,

With over a week since Typhoon Haiyan touched down, destroyed the Philippines, displaced 600,000+, and killed thousands, we continue to rally in support of our fallen countrymen. As we rally together, we released the #PhilippinesStrong design with Typhoon Haiyan in the text. 100% of NET PROFIT will be donated to the people, no NGO, no politicians. You don’t have to purchase our relief shirt, but please pass along, donate your own way, but let’s not forget! #typhoonhaiyan #kampeon #philippines

“The Secret of True Success: If you don’t enjoy the process, then the reward is worthless. Because it’s the process of the achievement that is its own goal.

Don’t confuse success with fulfillment… goals can change, fulfillment can be found doing many things. Don’t be afraid of acknowledging that. Pride should be about fulfillment.”

Things I Wish People Told Me When I Entered My 20s | Thought Catalog:

Thanks to two awesome friends, Elena Muslar and Catherine Mock, for sharing this with me! What a great and inspiring read! ♥

“One thing you don’t realize in your 20s is that anything is possible.. This is your moment. People like to think that the odds are stacked against them. Crappy job market, no money, no support, no clue how to enter the field you desire. While a lot of this is valid, you have to realize that by being the new generation, it’s our turn now. Someone has to be the new, great filmmaker, artist, scientist, author, etc. So why not let that someone be you? What’s different today than back then is that there is no clear path anymore. Lines are smudged, career trajectories are murky. But that’s also what makes it so exciting, don’t you think? You can create your own journey and become a trailblazer… I still think it’s possible to go after what you want and get it. It just involves a buttload of discipline and tenacity. You also can’t ever second-guess yourself. Imprint it on your brain. You will become who you want to be. There is no other alternative.”
