Thoughts of a working mom of two. Proud mom to an active grade schooler and a survivor four year old!
You must be smiling from ear to ear when you entered the gates of heaven. We smile, we laugh, we go through our day to day activities but our hearts still feel wounded. 4o days is symbolic in our Catholic faith, and i guess for me, it also gives us that one day to tell ourselves that today it is alright to cry again, to miss you and to honor you. This is just one of those days, but tomorrow we will get back on our feet, and face each new day with a smile like did when you were here… Smile in heaven for us Mamang.
Lately I had been binge watching Marie Kondo’s show on Netflix. Alright, binge watching may be an overstatement because it literally takes me 3-4 installments to watch an-hour long episode
As I had a major health concern last year, I realized that i need to take my health seriously, and thus I decided to enroll to a personal training session at a gym. It has been 3-years since I resigned as a full time employee to give more time to my children, and I am thankful for the opportunity given to me to still share my skills on a different setup. But i realized that when the going gets tough, all i need to get my bearings back is to close my eyes, pray, and remind myself of what my purpose of being a parent is, and that is for them to be God-fearing, responsible, kind and good kids who will eventually be citizens of this world. As I end this post, I pray that each one of us will take the memorable and learning experiences from 2018 and leave the negative ones behind.
While the reflection talks about your own death, my life turned around when it was not me fighting for my life, but my son. And in those moments in our life, I felt that my mind, or better yet my life, was stripped of to the bare essentials. In those moments of letting go of all the things and thoughts that worries me, but strongly holding on to my faith in the Lord that He will do what is right no matter how painful it will be, I was reminded of what matters in life. That although there are people we identify as “friends” in our day to day life or even in social media, only a few will qualify as real ones; those people who know you and will stand by you no matter what.
