Parfois (Par-fwa)

Founded 1994 by Manuela de Medeiros in Portugal, Parfois (pronounced Par-fwa) offers the best styles in accessories created by dedicated design teams in Porto and Barcelona. French for “sometimes,” Parfois was Manuela’s dream of making fashion not just exceptional and irresistible but also affordable for all stylish women. After opening 40 stores in Portugal by 2001, today Parfois is available in over 40 countries with over 330 boutiques worldwide.

March of this year, Parfois (Par-fwa) – Europe’s leading fashion accessories brand opened a branch here at Level 1 Centrio Mall, Corrales Entrance, Cagayan de Oro City and was given the opportunity to witness the opening with some of my blogger friends.

God’s Reply

Dear girls and girls-at-heart, this poem is dedicated to you in particular. May we all guard our hearts faithfully and as carefully as possible, for whomever the Lord has written for our future, in His most perfect plan.

The world conspires and says to me
I have to seize what I can see,
And give my life and heart today
To love not guaranteed to stay.

It feels so tempting to accept
This thought that my sane mind rejects,
For though security’s not giv’n,
A temp’ral love still sounds like heav’n.

It’s hard to hold myself against
The charm that my soft heart had sensed;
It’s hard to trustingly forego
Affections he now seems to show.

The time’s not right; I know this well,
Yet still in me emotions swell.
“Lord, can’t I take him, just for now?
If it’s Your will, You’ll show us how.”

Then God replied in tenderness,
So firmly, “Child, would I give less?
Would I give less than what is best,
When I have given you the rest?

“There is a story kept for you,
A story written for your due,
I wrote it with My loving hand,
It’s best—though not what you demand.

“There’ll come the day when you will see
A person made for you by Me;
I know it’s hard to let things be,
Yet I want you to wait on Me.

“If he should be the one for you,
Then let me mold both of you two
Until you’re ready for that day
For love committed e’er to stay.

“If it should be another one,
Then do not rush before I’m done;
In case you love someone untrue,
Someone I hadn’t made for you.

“Just trust Me, child, I love you so,
My love is all you need to know;
Would I retain from you the rest,
When I have given you My best?”

 

Thank you Wenslyn! <3

I have just been informed that I am part of the Centrio-Ayala Cinemas Official Launch on November 15, 2012 – Thursday – 6PM. I am so thrilled and excited!

Centrio-Ayala Mall, which recently opened last November 9, 2012, is an integrated mixed-use complex composed of a shopping mall, a hotel, a BPO/office building and a condominium tower located along Capt.
