Growing up, I have always been immersed in television and movies in the Philippines. And I still remember Snooky Serna, or "Cookie" as she was called back then. (wait, why do I KNOW all this information?)

She was young, and in my opinion, one of the prettiest faces in Pinoy showbiz when I was growing up. She had a good career in TV and movies, and even starred in the classic "Blusang Itim", a haunting story about a disfigured girl who discovers beauty for a few hours through a magical mirror. Or was it a magical blouse(hence the title?) Oh well, my point is that she was a good actress and had a promising future ahead of her.

Well this morning as I scoured the web for local news in my home country, I stumbled upon this article about Snooky and how she is doing now.

Needless to say, it is full of life’s lessons. Such as:

1. The future is never secure
2. You need to SAVE. Now.
3. You need to continue to work hard and learn new things
4. You need God in your life

Thank you Ms Snooky for sharing your story. May our good Lord, who knows all your needs,  bless you and your family.
