\nWhen my father passed away and after a couple of months, I decided to live on my own and be independent. It was a pivotal moment in my life where it allowed me to have self-reflection and cultivated me to grow independently.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/powerofloveministry.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/zhaira-1-300x214.jpg\")
\nMy father, who passed away last year. It still pains me when I think of him, but I know he is now at peace. He taught me to be a dreamer. In these modern days, being a dreamer tends to be impractical. He pushed me to be what I am today and reminded me that I should always remember, I have within me the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/powerofloveministry.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/zhaira-2-300x200.jpg\")
Before the pandemic, I have training sessions for aerial silk, pole dancing, and some yoga classes. I really was passionate about getting my body healthy and toned, also to increase my physical strength capacity.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/powerofloveministry.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/zhaira-3-300x225.jpg\")
Nowadays, I haven\u2019t trained for a while, or even do self-exercise at home. I have a sort of monotonous life for now due to the overwhelming effect of the pandemic, when I\u2019m not at work, I usually dwell on reading novels, reading manga (comics in Japan), watching movies or series, listening to my favorite Korean pop (K-pop) songs and playing a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA). For now, I think I\u2019m enjoying being a couch potato and having peace by myself.<\/p>\n
\nNot everybody knows I seek adventure and adrenaline rush. When I was in secondary school, we had a family outing in Bohol, Philippines. We went to an outland adventure park where we had a vacation and they have amenities such as canyoneering and zipline. The famous of them all was one of the highest canyon swing\/ bungee jumping off the cliff. Jumping off the cliff was an exhilarating and amazing experience for me.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/powerofloveministry.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/zhaira-4-300x200.jpg\")
