About Mommy Arbie

 



A writer since the beginning of her own time. She dreamed of being a mother. A proud one now.


I discovered my passion for writing during my Elementary days when I joined a competition for writing about the Month of National Language (Filipino). I was able to bag a 3rd place certificate, and since then, I always loved writing anything. 


During my High School days, it was one of my teachers who pushed me to write and join various writing competitions as a representative of our school after he read my project entitled "Memoir".


Years after, I was able to use it on my first job where I wrote documentation for our support processes.


I also started blogging using Tumblr about random stuff - this is also where I discovered Wattpad. I wrote a horror story on that interface which was eventually bought for publishing.


I actually want to keep a blog but am clueless about what would be the focus of my writings. And then, my biggest dream came true.


I became a Mother.

As a full-time mom and a writer by heart, the only subject that I'm passionate about sharing everything about my daughter, my healing journey, and everything under the sun. 


I am also now a baker and a health advocate, so expect this kind of topic too. 


Though I've been learning a lot and doing "quite" a lot, still, my family is still my biggest achievement in life. 


Published books/stories:

  • House #38
  • Kapis
  • Ang Kuwento Nina Ulan, Araw, at Bahaghari

How a 6 years old understands Jollibee Foods Corporation

  "Inasal is owned by Jollibee" - Awudya Nung nakaraan nagdiscuss siya sa'kin ng business plan niya. Nung kumain naman kami sa Mang Inasal ang sabi naman niya ang Jollibee daw ay owned ng Mang Inasal. Although iba daw yung food like chickenjoy and spaghetti, still si Mang Inasal ay part daw ng Jollibee katulad ng Greenwich. I asked her today kung bakit niya nasabi yun, nabasa niya daw yung sign nakalagay yung Jollibee. And there are other members of Jollibee daw. And to validate that, yes Mang Inasal is owned by Jollibee just like Greenwich, Chowking, Mang Inasal, Red Ribbon and many more within PH and outside PH. Meron ding Chinese Resto ang Jollibee na nasa China. That is why JFC or Jollibee Food Corporation is a strong company. Kapag nag-invest ka sa kanila, hindi ka lang basta nag-invest sa Chickenjoy. Anyway, going back sa anak ko. Nakakatuwa na alam niya yun simply by observing. Mana ka kay Mommy, tahimik lang but observing. I know one day, you will do great things....

Love vs. Attachment

 Learn the difference between Attachment and Love. Because clearly, those two things are different from each other, but humans are unconsciously considering them as one. Emotions are simply the fulfillment of one's desire - attachments. Self-fulfilling. Self-aggrandizement. Love is an intense feeling of deep affection and does not necessarily have to be reciprocated. This is why people with the same wounds can connect with each other. They simply misunderstood the spark as "Love". In reality, this is just an attachment. The person whom you can connect with has the same wound as yours so you basically know how to fill each other's bucket. On the other hand, to Love is to see yourself from the other person without the opposite. Without the need to satisfy the desire of your ego. When you no longer seek for that person to satisfy your desire and you now see the person as you, that is love. Thus, it is very important to learn how to love yourself, so...

Why do we suffer?

Photo by omar alnahi: This past few months, I've been very distant and observant of people, and their emotions. I'm trying to understand where the suffering of humans is coming from. I received various answers and most of them are because of outside forces. So instead, I ask within. What is it that makes humans suffer? Is it because of fear? Is it because life is indeed unfair? Or is it because of something deeper yet obvious? Today, I woke up with a heavy feeling in my chest. Something from my childhood keeps on flashing on the screen of my memories and of course, I don't like it. I'm practicing unattachment in everything that comes into my life now, but at this moment, the pain in my chest keeps on getting heavier. So I'm aware that I'm doing something wrong with it. Then, I came across one of Aaron Abke's podcasts, entitled "The Pain and Pleasure Paradox". In this podcast, I suddenly realized that what ...
