When my mother went to the derma to have her dry skin checked, I was once again reminded of the "power" of petroleum jelly.
I use petroleum jelly every now and then for various reasons…I apply it to the dry spots on my face…I sometimes use it as lip gloss…I apply it on the skin of Wendy. Come to think of it, our derma summed it all when she said, "Petroleum jelly is the cheapest moisturizer." Boy was she right! A big bottle (which lasts for months, depending on usage) costs around PhP120 to PhP130…and it really does serve its purpose.
The other night, I was rubbing my soles and was thinking how hard the skin on my soles has become because of the constant scrubbing from foot spas. I put lotion every night to make it smooth and soft again…but got very minimal results. Then, I had a light bulb moment…How about I apply petroleum jelly every night? Guess what? It works! Applying petroleum jelly to my whole feet (not just the soles) has made them softer and smoother. In around a week, I already noticed the difference. There…no more expensive foot lotions! Try it! J
(Petroleum jelly is a bit sticky, so you might opt to put it on at night, before sleeping.)
If I will be asked to describe Coron in one word, it would have to be paradise. I have been to many places and beaches in the
My coworker recently told of an "episode" of the radio show of Mo Twister wherein the DJs talked about their most hated cliches. Mo Twister said that his was "Everything happens for a reason." He then went on to elaborate why he hated this line.
If I were asked what would be the cliche that I do not like, if not hate, to hear, it would be people telling me, whenever I have problems, "Yaan mo na, maswerte ka na nga eh, si {name of person} nga ganito, ganito {buntis na iniwan pa ng boyfriend}, etc….etc." Do not get me wrong, I earnestly believe that we should really count our blessings and be thankful for what we have, even in the midst of problems. However, I believe that this cliche causes people to be stuck in their own dilemmas, thinking that they are already lucky compared with other people. They do not face their problems and just accept them as they are. Sometimes, when I have problems, when I think of this cliche, I feel guilty when I pray. I mean, should I be asking God to give me money for that cell phone I’ve been wanting to buy when I know that other people don’t even have money to buy food? Feels funny diba? It is as if I do not have the right ask God for help. And this makes me sick. Sometimes, thinking about others’ problems and how lucky we are may make us feel better, most often only for very short periods of time. But this does not entirely help us in our situation….we still have to face the fact that we hurt because we lost a loved one, or that we are scared because we failed a subject at school, or that we have to face the criminal charges put against us.
How about you, what’s the cliche that you hate most?
see you there!
