I grew up in the sacred halls of the church that promised love and salvation for those who fear and believe in Him. I was a member of our Catholic primary school choir, so first Friday masses were something I’ve always looked forward to. Why wouldn’t I? Choir members were excused from the first three

Whether on foot along stony roads for hours or by boat under the unforgiving heat of the sun, the journey to healthcare in remote communities is often long and uncertain. Emergencies, however, do not wait for calmer seas. In Arteche, Eastern Samar, where access to medical care can mean the difference between life and death,

Sa gitna ng sumisirit na presyo ng langis, hindi lang sa malalayong bansa matatagpuan ang tunay na labanan. Dama ko ang yanig ng bomba rito mismo sa aspalto — sa lugar kung saan ang dati’y walang-humpay na ingay ng makina at walang-tigil na pag-uumpugan ng siko’t katawan ay napalitan ng katahimikang mas nakabibingi pa sa

Para sa 21-anyos na si Aya, hindi niya tunay na pangalan, mahirap yakapin ang mundong tila itinakda na para sa kaniya bago pa man siya isilang. “Muslim ako sa birth certificate,” wika niya. Bagama’t kinalakihan ang pag-iwas sa karne ng baboy at ang pag-aayuno tuwing buwan ng Ramadan, hindi kinagisnan ni Aya ang kulturang Muslim,

Sumalampak ako sa aming malaking sofa nang makauwi ako bandang alas-singko ng gabi. Nadatnan kong magulo ang sala. Ang mga gamit sa paaralan ay nakalatag sa lamesa at ang mga laruan ng dalawa kong batang pinsan ay nakakalat sa sahig. Nilibot ko ang aking mga mata at naabutan ang aking inang abala sa kusina na
