A Life's Work

A Life's Work

"None of us are defined by our circumstances,
nor are we defined
by how other people perceive us.
It is up to each one of us to define ourselves,
and that is a life's work."
"Each of us has the ability to lead a dynamic life
by pursuing our unique goals and dreams.
There are no limits to
what we can do."
the whole world is an opportunity;
it is our work to make our imprints
on the highway of life.
an unlimited advantage chosen by a select few,
not of power and money, fame, nor fortune.
the select few
never try to prove themselves,
for they know who they are
they are confident, not pretentious.
they know where they come from
and they know where they're going
they are at peace with themselves
and their surroundings
they are whole and complete.

Remembering Mom on Mother's Day

What's a better way of celebrating Mother's Day than remembering your mother and paying a tribute to all her unconditional love, sacrifices, unselfish and caring ways, together with your loved ones (not all of them) on this special day. Now that I have children of my own, I have come to realize that she was not an ordinary mother; she was a supermom. Looking back, I am amazed at how she was able to juggle her time between her work and her devotion to her kids when we were growing up. She became a widow at the age of 41, her second and last marriage (her first husband was a casualty of war). She remained unmarried until the day she died, unconcerned for the attention quite a few gentlemen had given her. Instead, her time was spent religiously on her obligations to raise her three daughters, and managed to send them to one of the best private schools in the country at that time. On her spare time, she volunteered to teach impoverished young women on home economics, f...

Greatest Kitchen Gadget Ever Invented..

Gone were the days when christmas and new years' eve dinner food preparation entailed staying up days and nights working on the menu. Making our yearly traditional fresh authentic chinese lumpia needed the whole family's help to julienne the snowpeas and the side pork, chiffonade the cabbage, thinly slice the shallots, grate the carrots, and many other tedious ways of preparing the ingredients before actually cooking them. Nowadays, all that is gone. Thanks to the genius inventor of the food processor . Life for cooks have been easier since. It can chop, knead, slice, dice, and shred in seconds. We can now make pizza dough for a few seconds, make the dough rise in 30 minutes, put our favorite topping and cheeses on it and in 10 to 12 minutes, we have a homemade delicious pizza that each of my children can cook for themselves. Food Processors come in different sizes. The biggest our kitchen has is the 7 cups with 1.5 quarts bowl capacity, which we use for making purees of vegeta...
