2007 Blessed Day e-Newsletter
14 Nov 2007
Dear Friend,
Is today just another day for you? If one looks closely at one's day, it has charms that cannot be wrought out of any other day. Just think, today you have certain people in your life that will not always be there. Today you have a level of health that you will be harder to maintain as the years go by.
Today's news, though good or bad, will not be duplicated tomorrow. Your views may also change by then. Each day holds ephemeral beauty in the delicate fragile flowers or each day's unique sunset. Whether through the sound of the wind's gentle rustling or hearing the sound of your name from a long lost friend.
Today, a child is this way and tomorrow he is another. Today is quite precious and it is a rare blessing to be thoughtful and appreciative of. Let's give thanks to God who crafted each day quite masterfully!
"For today and its blessings, I owe the world an attitude of gratitude." -Clarence E. Hodges

Bless and Be Blessed
Here's the proof that it is more blessed to give than to receive!
- Studies show that acts of kindness lengthens one's life. Volunteering, serving your family and friends does your health good so enjoy being kind and compassionate! Encourage others to do so too! Read the full article here
- Do you have a regular prayer time? It has been a well-known fact that stress levels are reduced with prayer and quietening down our spirit. Not only does it prepare us for the day ahead but if we are praying for someone we hardly like, prayer can gradually transform our feelings in time. Anything that can change us for the better is a priceless blessing.
- Giving thanks in the midst of trying times can be very difficult. We would rather gripe about how bad things are. Try being appreciative of little things at first. You will find more and more to be grateful for! Your blessings will overflow as well when you don't take them for granted.
*Take note: Give sincerely - not so you can receive in return or the blessing just won't be the same!
Tips for Ordering for Christmas
1) For those who need corporate giveaways, we are still accepting customized orders! Please allow 2 to 3 weeks for production and delivery to the branch of your choice.
2) You may also shop online at www.papemelroti.com/ - simply fill up the order/inquiry form and we will reply from Tues-Fridays with the costs, payment options and other information.
3) We advise everyone to shop early to avoid lining up and having the best pick of the products!
Update on Glorietta Shop
We wish to acknowledge and thank many of you have expressed concern for our staff and shop at Glorietta 2 after the tragic explosion last Oct. 19th.
We thank God so much because seconds before the blast, one of our sales staff was just there (where most of the damage was). As soon as she came back to the Papemelroti shop, the loud noise reverberated throughout the whole mall. The only known damage was the shattered window glass which stayed intact until all our sales staff were safely out of the building.
To date, the Ayala management has sealed off the premises indefinitely due to the ongoing investigation. We are now temporary located in a small kiosk at the corridor between Glorietta 1 and 4 leading to SM. By December 1. 2007, we will open at the 3rd floor of Glorietta 3.
We extend our sympathies and pray for all those who were affected.
SM Pampanga Soon to Open
Welcome the 15th branch of Papemelroti!
We hope to open by the end of November at the newly opened wing of SM Pampanga, Mexico, Pampanga. Hope to see you there!
Entrepreneur Magazine
Papemelroti is featured on the November 2007 issue of Entrepreneur magazine. The story of the family business hopes to encourage other families to work together and reap the benefits of similar work ethics and having closer ties.
*We wish to correct some parts of the article. We do not use shells in our crafts because taking these will harm the environment. We also do not have a 5-storey factory in Bulacan but rather our main office is housed in a 5-storey building and our Bulacan factory only has 1 floor.
Thank you very much to Entrepreneur Magazine for featuring us!
