VOICE NOTES

The most precious things that I own are a few voice notes and emails my papa had sent me some years ago. He passed away in 2014. I listen to his voice messages now and then because they give me strength to overcome hurdles.

PICTURES

The most precious thing that I own is memories of my family and friends. Since these are intangible, I make it a point to capture some of them on camera and store away safely. I would hate for anything to happen to them.

MY MIND

The most precious thing I own is undoubtedl­y my mind. It is powerful. If I make up my mind to do something, I can surely achieve my goal. My mind has the potential to suppress anger, ignite joy and shut down sorrow. Above all, my mind is the chamber of memories that awakens my soul when I feel empty and despair fills that vacuum.
