MAiSEN, again
Grocery day. Left the condo really late thinking I might not be able to attend the Saturday Mass. But then again, there will just be a few items I would be purchasing. Left with my (black) Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical 38 mm on my left wrist and an Apple watch on my right.
We were able to find a slot immediately and buying groceries at The Landmark Supermarket is a breeze. Left Edgar, the driver, to bring home our purchases as I walked my way to Sto. Niño de Paz Greenbelt Chapel to attend the anticipated Mass.
I was able to pray my Precious Blood Chaplet devotion and join the community to pray The Rosary.
The Mass presider is Fr. Paolo.
Fr. Paolo started the homily with questions: Are you successful in all aspects of your life? Are you fruitful?
You may be successful but not fruitful. At the same time, you can be fruitful but not successful.
What makes success? All these four should exist for it to be considered successful. (a) Happiness, (b) Achievement, (c) Significance, and (d) Legacy.
If you want to be happy, make other people happy.
Your success serves the greater community of God (legacy).
Fruitfulness comes from knowing our core, which is God. Faithfulness is important. Fruitfulness and faithfulness come from a life of service, a life for others.
With success, we want to be number 1. We also tend to compare with others.
With fruitfulness, mission comes first. Good seeds sown will continue to bear fruit.
After the Mass, I went to Omega at Greenbelt 5. I have a dress watch, a GMT watch, a diver watch. I don't have a chronograph watch. And I decided that this watch would be the Omega Speedmaster 38. When I arrived at the store, there is one customer inside and they would not let me in. Really?! If I return after my lunch and still was not able to enter the store, the watch is not for me.
So for lunch, it would be MAiSEN. This is my second time here and I said I can go back again to eat. This time, I would be trying their tonkatsu, which I think they are known for. I ordered their Loin Katsu Set (PhP480.00). It is good. Happy with my lunch. 😃

After, went back to Omega. Left the store wearing the Omega watch, with my Hamilton safely tucked in my bag.
Next, I went to Mary, Mother of Hope Chapel at The Landmark, one of the Jubilee churches, hoping to gain a plenary indulgence, and I offer it for Charlie Kirk.
Instead of going to The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, went to The Landmark Food Center where I started this blog.
Back to the Greenbelt Chapel, I was able to join the community to pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet and the Rosary.
The anticipated Mass presider is Fr. Benny.
In the first reading, the people were complaining. God then sent snakes. They realize the error of their ways, they went to Moses who prayed for them.
Exaltation is manifestation of God's love.
Before, the cross is a sign of sin, a sign of punishment. Crucifixion is the most painful and humiliating way to die.
Are we sincere in our love for God? Are we serious in maintaining our relationship with God?
After the Mass, bought a suction hook at The Landmark's hardware section; bought Fern-C for Lyn at Mercury Drug inside The Landmark; picked up my item at the package counter; bought calcium citrate with vitamin D3, and vitamin D3 at Healthy Options.
Then, home.
