  • My bedroom is on the top floor of a six-storey building in Sta. Mesa, Manila. From my bedroom window I can see much of the Manila skyline. The sun was setting as I began writing this post and it filled my room with warmth and golden hues. And I found myself relishing the evening as I listened to TobyMac's "City on Our Knees".
