I’m Bored But Not Quite; But Yeah I Don’t Really Know. Lol.
It's been a while ever since I've written here and definitely, I love being back to this hobby of mine that I have cultivated since I was a college student. Blogging (I mean, writing on an online journal, not so much with that of documenting one's preoccupations on...
THE RULE OF ST. BENEDICT: Prologue (par 1-4)
Translated by: Rev. Boniface Verheyen (1844-1923) NOTE: I have thought of posting excerpts every two days at the least of the Rule of St. Benedict as a way of starting 2025 right, as a means to uplift the spiritual life. I shall also be writing some reflections about...
2025 Dawns Upon Us; Now What?

This Blog in Brief
Dedicated to St. Hildegard of Bingen, a Benedictine nun and intellectual; and my personal patroness, Our Lady of Montserrat, this blog hopes to be a venue for expressing ideas about sundry things on faith (especially about aspiring
to live a Benedictine-inspired life & spirituality), culture, my sometimes (failed) attempts at art, and education. Also, I talk about my life here as a mental health advocate based on my experiences, so please bear with me.
BY THE WAY, the title of this blog is Portuguese for “daughter of Hildegard” and is pronounced as /filya ildegarda/ .

St. Hildegard of Bingen
Saint Hildegard of Bingen, in your humility and simplicity, you were raised up by God and given a special gift of supernatural knowledge about the deepest mysteries of Heaven and earth. Please pray for us, that we will always be open to the truths God reveals to us and that we will use that knowledge as the basis of all our choices in life.
Saint Hildegard of Bingen, pray for us.
Our Lady of Montserrat
O God, Giver of all good things, who didst choose Montserrat as a glorious Shrine for the Mother of thy only begotten Son, and through her intercession there hast granted favors without number to those who sought them there: bow down thine ears now to our petitions as we kneel and pray before Her image. Thou Who livest and reignest forever and ever.
