How a Father should Love his Teenage Daughter

Time flies so fast, and I am really surprised that my only daughter is now 13. I am 30 years older than her so I thought that we will have a generation gap. But I am just glad we do not encounter such problems.

Angelene is now taller than her mom, while her interests are gradually becoming different. Therefore, it is also time for me to change the way I treat her. I must admit, I am still learning but I already learned a lot.

With this, here are some ways that I think on how a father should love his teenage daughter. Read more of this >>

I know I should have posted this on my personal blog, but I choose not to because my main blog has a wider audience.

Anyway, today is our 13th wedding anniversary, and I am very happy that I am still married to the same woman; Mylene.

The End of Money War and My All-time Favorite Love Poem

If you are not a big fan of GMA-7’s Korean telenovela – Money War, then you are missing one-third of your life. I did not watch all the episodes, but I understand clearly what the message wanted to convey. In case you missed it, it is a good story of how money can do badly to us.

It focused on people involved in private money lending business, and how good they are. It emphasized how you can be successful in it, but be the worst nightmare for your clients.

Dengue Fever: How My Wife Cheated Death through the Help of Fellow Filipino Bloggers

On my last post, I shared to you that Dengue fever hurt my daughter and almost killed my wife. Now, I am very glad to tell you that that she is now at home as per advised by her doctor. However, the ordeal was not easy and she has not yet fully regained her strength. Her body is still weak, and she will need a couple of days more to rest.

This is because she underwent not once, but two blood transfusions to increase her platelet. It took her three more days under observation to make sure that it is consistently increasing. When it reached 97, it’s the only time that the doctor said she can already taste a food. As I have also mentioned earlier, it was a nightmare as the high expenses is an additional burden for us.
