HOME......AT LAST

God's Garden Must Be Beautiful

God saw you getting tired,
When a cure was not to be,
So He wrapped His arms around you,
And whispered,"Come to Me",
You didn't deserve what you went
through,
So He gave you rest,
God's garden must be beautiful,
He only picks the best.
And when I saw you sleeping,
so peaceful and free from pain.
I could not wish you back
To suffer that again.


Papa at 84 passed away last February 19, 2009 at 11:15 am.
of Lung Cancer at St.Lukes Medical Center .It was also
my Mamas' birthday.It was indeed a celebration of life,
We will be missing you a lot........
We all know you're at peace........

"SO WHO'S THE GUY"

HAPPY VALENTINES TO EVERYBODY!!!!!

We all went to this stage of having crushes and of course having this First Love syndrome.I got this shock of my life when my daughter Erika asked me if she can have a date this Valentines day,Goodness,gracious WHAT???I told myself,I was not expecting this she is only 14 years old.quite young in my opinion.I have nothing against dating but I feel its not yet the time.So when will be the time?she asked me.
I remenber myself at her age,still playing Patintero and Sipa(outdoor game here in the Phils)with my friends in the neighborhood.Every weekend its a must for all of my friends in the pasilyo to be at our meeting place,since during the weekdays no one is allowed to play outside because of school except if there is no class.Reminiscing my childhood days makes me happy,we were a family then,every neighbors would attest to that.We are family back then,brothers and sisters anything whatever you call it,we cherish every moment of it,One time,during our summer vacation,there was this volleyball competition which we joined together with my friends Julie(now in Canada),May,Neneng,me and Jas and Helen(my 2 younger sisters).We represent our pasilyo(neighborhood),there I met my First Love, a typical tall ,dark and handsome guy,with a very nice voice (he was 16,I was 14)we became close,as usual, a typical reaction when a girl meets boy,(kilig to the bones)as what they say here.The feeling is unexplainable.The funny part is that when he visited me at the house and while talking to papa,as if he was interrogated by a police officer,we found out later that he was a distant relative.His grandpa was papas' 3rd cousin,so thats make him my nephew,Actually,I did cry a lot,no one ever knew that until now,as years passed by,I still fondly remember him a lot WHY NOT HIM??she asked,because it was meant to be that way,I got married at 31 to your dad ,despite what happened to us, you were the greatest blessing he gave to me.I maybe over protected mom you ever had but you will understand in time what I'm doing,enjoy your life while young,while I'm still by your side.I hope she Understand..........

AM I READY???

It has been sometime since my last blog,been sick for a while probably due to the present situation I am into,My mind are full of thoughts starting to explode but I kept on reminding myself be calm and be patient,keep still.
"Be ready,time to go to school",I remember Mama telling us on our first day of school,with our bags pack with our 'baon'(food),Be ready for an exam said our teachers after a long day of reviewing and memorizing those topics,you found out that classes are suspended,the teacher is absent,etc.How about being ready for your first dance, first kiss and LOVE. So who's the guy!!!(wait till my next post).We tend to set our lives planning and enjoying our present moment,seems natural to me but during my stay here at the hospital a lot of things had happened.DEATH,ARE WE READY FOR THIS???? SO whose afraid of dying??A friend always told me that death is the only natural thing in this world.probably true coz if its your time no matter what you do he always has the last say.comparing our lives to a candle.once lighted we have no idea when it will be consumed,when will the flame stops.Not everybody were given the gifts to live,life is full of mysteries,who would tell that when our mothers were giving birth to us we will be born,anybody can have a baby,but not all are sure if they live once they are pulled out on their mothers' womb.God has plans for us,for now what we can do is to follow his teachings,it may sound so difficult especially when our Faith is tested,which I know everyone in experiencing.I have my up's and down for sometime now,through this I became more understanding on some matters I at first did not understand,Be good,do good, share the blessings you have,we make a lot of mistakes but at the end Indeed Life is so simple.
