Silence (and distance) makes the heart grow fonder
Marvin and Ruth Marcial prove that being deaf is not a hindrance in finding one true love. The couple outside their home in Virginia, USA.Silence (and distance) makes the heart grow fonder
By: Joyce Dalawampu
What makes a love story great?
Literature can give us a number of stories that can make our hearts either flutter or break, like the winding twists and turns of Cupid and Psyche, the melodramatic turn of Romeo and Juliet, and the much talked about pop culture couple of our generation, Edward and Bella.
But what of quiet stories - the ones that can be likened to a scenic ride to a nearby seaside, no fireworks, no grand theatricals, just two people who work hard, love freely, and trust much.
Such is the story of Marvin and Ruth Marcial.

Ana Arce as Guest Speaker
TED is an annual event where some of the world’s leading thinkers and doers are invited to share what they are most passionate about. “TED” stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design — three broad subject areas that are, collectively, shaping our future. And in fact, the event is broader still, showcasing ideas that matter in any discipline.
Attendees have called it “the ultimate brain spa” and “a four-day journey into the future.” The diverse audience — CEOs, scientists, creatives, philanthropists — is almost as extraordinary as the speakers, who have included Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Jane Goodall, Frank Gehry, Paul Simon, Sir Richard Branson, Philippe Starck and Bono.
Our other speaker is Ana Arce- a Magna cum Laude graduate of the De La Salle -College of Saint Benilde… who was born deaf. Decorated with medals, Ana represents the promise of youth, hope beyond adversity, and the grit that can transform persons and nations.
Find out more about Ana.
