A Parent’s Love That Lasts Beyond a Lifetime: Why a Plan B Matters



“I want to be like you, Mama.”

Every parent dreams of hearing those words. They’re not just sweet—they’re a reminder that our children look up to us, draw from us, and want to carry our light forward. As parents, we dream even bigger dreams for them: to finish school, to find their calling, to live with security, and to keep reaching for the stars.

But here’s the thing: life doesn’t always go as planned.

We don’t like thinking about it, but what if one day, we’re no longer there to provide the means? What happens to the child who wants to be a doctor, an engineer, or maybe an artist like you? Without support, dreams can fade. And that’s something no parent ever wants to imagine.

This is where Plan B comes in.

More than a financial tool, life insurance is an invisible safety net. It’s the promise that even when you’re gone, your love still protects. It makes sure your child can still finish school, still stay in the home they grew up in, and still have what they need to chase their goals. It’s the continuation of everything you worked hard to build.

Renato Vergel De Dios, President and CEO of BDO Life, put it simply:

“Life insurance has to be the simplest, most powerful solution to sustaining those aspirations, even amidst life’s toughest challenges.”

Life is unpredictable. But love? Love is steady. With the right plan in place, your child doesn’t just inherit your memories—they inherit the stability to move forward confidently. That kind of security is a legacy no loss can ever take away.

So maybe life insurance isn’t just another expense. Maybe it’s the most important Plan B you’ll ever make.

If you’ve ever whispered to yourself, “I just want them to be okay”, this is your way of making sure they will be—no matter what the future holds.

Because dreams deserve protection. And your love deserves to last a lifetime.

Pungko Pungko - Cebuano Foodie Must-try

Image
You cannot say you are a Cebuano foodie until you partake and enjoy the offerings of your local Pungko-Pungko stall. Pungko means squat in the Cebuano language.  The Pungko-Pungko name was attached to vendors who walk to sell food and when they find interested eaters they usually look for a clean corner and squat or "pungko" to eat.  Now, most Pungko-Pungko suki do not need to look for their favorite vendor because there are now in many places in the city that are known for this type of "cuisine".  The popular hotspots for pungko-pungko are the stalls in the Fuente area at the back of Sampaguita Suites, Redemptorist Church Area near Foodarama, and Cebu Doctor's University area beside McDonald's.

Enjoying Cheeseburger and Milkshake at Cafe Racer

Image
It's another day in the 2015  Sinulog  week and to avoid the traffic, I went to the North Reclamation Area and then I saw this diner.  I decided to check it out and maybe have some decent snack.   I did not expect much of this place.  The outside looks like an refurbished abandoned gasoline station and there is a car wash for people who wants to have their car cleaned while enjoying some good food. When I got inside of the main diner, I was blown away. There are so many Instagram worthy areas in Cafe Racer Diner.  And it starts with the cashier's area. VW Van inside Cafe Racer!?

Special Lunch at Carlos Special Ngohiong

Image
Because of social media sites like Instagram or Facebook and the affordability of camera phones, a lot of Cebuanos are fast becoming social media foodies. Hashtags like #foodporn and #happytummy has become one of top hashtags in Instagram and Twitter. Another food requirement I think to make a Cebuano or Cebuana a certified foodie aside from pungko-pungko is to have a favorite ngohiong place. Ngohiong is Cebu's answer to spring rolls. It is a cheap food item that is a big hit to true blue Cebuanos. I asked a few of my friends about their favourite places to eat ngohiong.  The answer is not really unanimous but a couple answered Carlos Ngohiong. Some also said Doming's in Guadalupe , Atik's in Mabolo, and Chinese Ngohiong near USC Main.  One time I ended up in Mambaling with a friend and I told her that I want to have ngohiong lunch at Carlos Special Ngohiong.  It has been quite a while since I went there.  I almost got lost but thanks to a friendly trisikad ...

Favorite Pinoy Dishes at AA Barbecue

Image
Ever since I discovered AA Barbecue, it has always been a favorite place to have lunch or dinner.    It is one of the restaurants or eateries where I can eat and enjoy any of their dishes. It is actually hard to pick a favorite here.  In some days, I just order some grilled pork belly, ngohiong and punaw soup.  In other days I could eat Saang, hot and chrispy squid, and chopsuey. The possibilities are just endless.
