Father Rene had his driver pick up Neil and me to go to Maryhill School of Theology. Revised two paintings and checked out changes made in the library building's physical layout.

After breakfast, Jerome helped me put together a portable painting pack. Father Rene is picking me and Neil up after lunch to go to Maryhill School of Theology. Am revising a portion of the Saint Louis painting, after which we hold a meeting Apparently many of the ground-floor spaces in  the library building are being reassigned. The paintings there will be hung in offices rather than reading rooms.

There are times when candy will serve you well.

I don't mind icy ice cream. It has a charm of its own.
Sincere sympathies to the immediate family of my eldest brother-in-law, Manny Floro (Lourdes, Raymond, Manuel Jr., Yolanda, and Lily). He accidentally slipped and knocked head in Sydney while they were preparing to have a Mother's Day lunch out, and was unconscious for days. He passed peacefully 4:15 this afternoon.

He was a good and honest man who always tried to please others. I will always remember him fondly for that, and I will always treasure the special gifts he gave me.

No one is naturally in isolation from others, that is why artists must go out of their way to contrive their solitude.

"I Am A Woman in Love" and "Stayin' Alive" can be sung together.
Look for the white merry-go-round in the sky.
Always look at your house as though you were seeing it for the first time.
Sometimes you have to rest even between two relaxing tasks.
Maintain two separate cash flows: one for yourself and one for your family.
The piece of jewelry will tell you whether it likes you or not.

Set realistic parameters for yourself, and stay within them.

Focus on only one thing at a time.

A good caregiver soon functions as a superego and a mature conscience.

Be mindful of your body's reflexes and what your body wants, especially upon waking up from sleep or a restful nap.

How awful. Bernadette reported that Lucing of the famous Pampanga's sisig was murdered. For money, I bet.
You can be there just by thinking of being there, sometimes with the aid of a polished, black stone or a candle flame.

Love others, fall in love even, but never invest your life in anyone. When they leave you you may not even have yourself to console yourself.

A house filled with many, pleasant memories is never a lonely house to be in.
