Mom Violy, Tita Edna and Carmina have never been to Iloilo . Tita Edna suggested using her Philippine Airlines mileage to deduct 9,000 miles for a round trip to Iloilo and pay taxes of about 3,000 pesos ($50.85). Mom Violy and Carmina decided to do the same. Two weeks later, we learned Bacolod was recently hit by a typhoon, leaving fewer places to visit, so we changed our plans to stay in Iloilo, paying an additional 2,057 pesos ($34.86) for January 6–9, with Tita Edna leaving one day earlier on January 8, 2026.  Tita Edna told us that she has a friend Beth who can pick us up from the airport. Uniparentally plans had changed since her friend Beth and son could no longer tour us around, we decided to find ways to get around hire someone else. Jerson had picked us from One Madison Place where we had stayed during our vacation with the hours Mom Violy had requested. The first day we went to drive one hour and thirty minutes to reach  Miagao Church . We drove to our next destin...

Telling a Story


I have a friend who says when I talk I have so many things to say every time we have a conversation.

They feel I don't run out of stories to share. They even tell me I must really be a blogger with all the entire details given when I am describing something. 

Sometimes you don't notice yourself when you're talking only realize you are the same way when you're family members do the same thing to you.

How do you stop telling a story out from not sharing the full details?

Is there such a thing when you tell someone a story by only giving a brief summary?

I have tried it before giving my friend a brief summary without a complete description the person seem not to understand my story so how do you cope with other people who careless to hear the full story of what you want to share with them.

To me I feel I want to share less information to the person who holds me back not giving much information and you realize which people you will want to tell stories too than the ones who control and complain what you tell them.

In our life we come across people who careless what you say but want to share their stories to you in every friendship we also come toward a road we come to travel and experience in our life when we talk to people we don't really know we learn the difference from them how we are so different on how they receive or hear from you.

There are a lot of people who I have learn to know during our pandemic months they have different types of emotional feelings and try not to interfere in their thoughts.

Sometimes they can also become selfish only wanting you to listen to what they have to say.

When it is your turn they turn their back not hearing anything or don't pay any attention what story you have to say.

All I can say it is unfair in every conversation should be equal this is when you learn who to talk too and who to share stories too is what I have learned from talking to people on the phone.
