Breakaway (LSS of the day)

 The 3 C's of life; Choice, Chance, Change. You must make the Choice to take the Chance if you want anything to Change. 
I guess this is just me, being sentimental. I love those songs where the lyrics say how you exactly feel at the moment. "Breakaway" for me, is like a dreamer's anthem. It's full of hope, it's positive, and it motivates you to keep going on in this journey called life. (and it is also perfect for Bro. Bo's Soulfood for today)
Choose to Dream (and choose your dreams wisely)
“You need to know your dream, define your dream, and pursue your dream. You need to have a firm grip on your dream—to eat, talk, walk, and sleep with your dream. I believe that if you don’t seek your dream with fierce commitment, your dreams won’t come true -- At a certain point, after seeking your dream, you need to surrender your dream to God...
Take a Chance in God's Perfect Timing
...Surrender means trusting that God has the best version in mind for you. That God’s best blessing will come in the best time and in the best way.  Just let it go. Just let God. Enjoy your life today, even if that dream seems to be so far away."  -Bo Sanchez
Change does not have to happen overnight
I must reiterate our favorite 'saying' (ahem, more like an excuse) back in highschool- "Change doesn't happen overnight." - maybe because, it's a life-long process, as we grow everyday, we can choose to be good, do good, stay good or otherwise; And everyday is a new chance to make that choice. The product of this change in attitude is the fulfillment of our dreams. 
"Studying hard enough to find a way to land that dream job; working hard to find means for me to be able to study once again." Life is an endless learning process, as they say. That's why I would like to go back to school one day and earn a Master's degree in Advertising. And soon enough, I can be a professor. :)

Save Baguio Pine Trees

I have been to Baguio City, twice in my life. The first trip was ten years ago when I was 12. And just recently, last February for the Panagbenga Festival. And because of its cold weather and abundance of strawberries, peanut brittle and choco flakes, not to mention wearing 'Winter Wardrobe' (knitted sweaters, berets, etc.) and most importantly, the picturesque mountain views with towering pine trees, I have come to love the place. So it is only right that I dedicate an artwork for the City of Pines, the summer capital of the Philippines. I may not be an environmentalist holding a picket along with the locals, but this I guess is the best I can do as an artist - to inspire people that the beautiful riches of our country is in our natural resources, we must take good care of it, as stewards of God's creation. I thank you. :)

The Gap

Ira Glass on Storytelling from David Shiyang Liu on Vimeo . "All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap.  It is only by going through a volume of work that you will close that gap, and your work will be as good as your ambitions." -Ira Glass What drove me to post this inspiring video is the fact that one work of mine has been finally put up in EDSA. It's like a milestone to be celebrated, but it falls under the kind of work that you're not really very proud to show... not because it's that bad, it's just trying to be good. I am not going to name-drop that certain brand, and I have to say that the artist does not always have the call on how can it be done solely, there are a lot more people involved in the creative process.  This is just the beginning and so I hope and pray that in the near future, I'll get past the stage where I just work for the sake of getting the job done but because it was...
