Apilgrim'stheme
This is a collection of photos of a life of a Youth Advocate in the midst of this ever-changing world. Each photo is accompanied by a short description and a short poem.
From the people we met along the way, the struggles we encountered, the laughter we shared, and the woes we have allayed.
All is a part of Life's greater scheme.

Soul, Eyes, Grief
A Medium close up shot of Mr. Alexander Ampit. Portraying Basilio, a character in one of Rizal's Novels.
Through the eyes, One's world unfolds, A kind of its own.
Grief is a price, Of a Love we received, Encased in the eyes we ' ve seen.

Silent Clamor

A Close up shot of Ms. Carlotta Jane Celestra. Portraying Sisa, one of the iconic characters in one of Rizal's Novels.
The silence that bangs aloud, Whispering clamors of a mind, Bearing the world on a rugged road.
A solemn invocation, Of a heart in battle, Where silence may find peace.

A Pilgrim's Theme
Photo by Nathaniel BarbadoAn extreme wide full shot of Brother Austin Usar, OFM Capuchin. Bro. Austin belongs to the same order of the great Saint Padre Pio.
I, a pilgrim of this world, A part of life's greater scheme, Witness of thy divine power.
A defender of faith, An advocate of life, A wandering soul that ignites.
