Title: Perfectly Imperfect Me Writer: Mark Andrew Proctan Adonis (SuperMarkyMacky) I wasn't born rich, I wasn't born to be royalty, I wasn't born with superpowers, and I wasn't born to be the next Helen of Troy , " the face that launched a thousand ships ". I honestly don't know why, for God's sake, why? I guess, I was stubborn in my past life, but all kidding aside. It's somewhat fine. As I assessed myself in the mirror, I could see a " jack of all trades ", master of none, a " so-so " in all aspects. I can say, I'm at this stage where I'm still struggling to wholeheartedly accept myself, as I am, and it's somewhat fine. Self-acceptance, big word for many and a challenging work for me. It's a long and winding road, with humps and bumps, especially nowadays, we are living in a generation where more often than not, the amount of likes on your Instagram account is so precious.

Hey yow, Super Folks ! People of Earth, after more than a month hiatus, I'm back and so ready to blog again. It's another day and another story to tell. What's up? How are you?

Let's make it a point to practice self-care and love ourselves more, like I always say. By the way, speaking of self-care, allow me to share an inspirational quote from Roy T. Bennett , author of The Light in the Heart . " You never change your lif...

Lobo, Batangas Super Folks , if you are reading this, I just want to virtually shake your hand and congratulate you, because, we made it through 2020 . Kidding aside, last year was an emotional roller coaster for everybody and I feel deeply that celebrating this new year, 2021 , is extra special. Feel free to scream " Happy New Year !", jump and dance all night, it's meaningful. We would love to see a better year . To God be the glory. Undeniably, the year 2020 was ugly, but it reminded us of different issues, like political and social, about the power of praying, the air we breathe, saving money, importance of emergency fund, and mental health. Also, it showed us the beauty of slow living. It taught us that being simple and frugal are better nowadays. Yes, appreciate simplicity and practicality, to be minimalist, as they say " live within your means ". We were challenged to learn new skills, like painting and cooking. The summary is like rainbow, colorful, an...
