Words to live by according to Shakespeare…
Have more than thou showest, speak less than thou knowest.
This hit home to me big time and is something that I've been trying to practice for a long time. Seeing this in Hwangssabu's quotes for today was an affirmation of the feelings I've been feeling but could not verbalise.
Thank you, William.
Today was a Monday.
Any other dreadful work day.
But today, I got the chance to meet someone exceptional.
I met Isay Alvarez-Seña and she is one amazing woman. A woman with a cause just exudes something so beautiful that goes way over and beyond what the eye can see. She is a person dealing with leukaemia and no, it does not show on her, physically, mentally, emotionally. She handles herself with such grace and regality, you would not suspect that she's going through that.
She is an advocate of promoting Philippine theatre. Being a seasoned theatre actress herself who's starred numerous plays here and even playing in Miss Saigon… You could say she's got loads under her belt. She says if only Filipinos would just balance their interest between local productions and foreign ones… She isn't even all purist about it because she says she also enjoys going to Broadway herself…
It's truly inspiring meeting people that inspire, spark a glimmer of fire in me.
