On DILG Secretary Robredo's Death

Death... tragic or peaceful, is still very painful.

What happened to Mr. Robredo's tragic accident that led to his death was a painful blow to me, to Naguenos, to Bicolanos and to all the Filipinos. He was an epitome of a good and honest leader, a servant leader that led Naga into a full-blown city, a DILG secretary who has started minimizing crime-rate in the country especially in Manila and has a vision of an illegal-gambling - free country.

I wept and still weeping since the day they found his body. I weep because one great servant leader, one of the FEW in the Philippine government has been lost. Not all hope has been lost, but a big part of it has..and I wish it will be back by putting someone who will be follow his footsteps and continue his reforms and visions as replacement for the position of DILG chief.

HOPE isn't all gone. We still have PNoy...

Hats off to Mr. Robredo, a life well-lived sir, a life well lived indeed!

When my Sean is Sick...

I have been so busy the last few weeks that I have not written any post here. I've been wanting to post pictures of our activities but for some reason that has been interrupted several times.

Sean is not feeling well since August 8 (my father's 61st birthday)...It really is heartbreaking to see your child finding it hard to breathe due to asthma, chilling because of high fever as well as coughing so hard because of the phlegm. Sigh. Last night, he was sleepless due to a low-grade fever, for several times he woke up crying...ahhh, really heartbreaking for a mom. I know mothers out there have the same emotion when they see their little ones suffering. 

Pray. This is my mom's powerful amulet...she told me of a story as when I was a toddler and I was sick with high fever..she prayed earnestly and wept silently during the night and daybreak came, I was fully recovered. Such faith, my mom has...

Love.A word so powerful that it can surpass anything. Love of a mom or dad to his/her child. A parent would do everything for his child.Ahhh, such love...I'm grateful to God for giving me that feeling, for giving me Sean.Thank you God, You are our exemplary Parent, please help us to at least be a bit of a parent as You.

I really don't know if what I'm blabbing about here makes sense, I guess when you worry about something and you are in front of your blog, you can just type anything. Sigh again.

Dear God,

Please, please touch my Sean with Your ever healing and powerful hands. Thank you, Jesus.

Amen.
