#4 "Dreams that came true"

                  Death. I define it as the state where we stop enjoying things that we usually did in this mysterious world. It is when our body organs stop functioning and we can no longer communicate through words.
                Preparing for New Year celebration was the most unforgettable happening we enjoy the most. Below are the five situation that we always do in preparation for new year. First, before new yea came, me together with my mother and sister bought fruits to display at the table for a good fortune that we believe.Second, we Filipinos believe that cleaning the house before new year means throwing all bad lucks that we had for past year. so we did. We clean. Next, my family always wrote our new year's resolution and wrap it to a candle and put it at the dining table. After that, we also enjoyed cooking. So, we prepared viands and desserts for the occasion. Lastly, we never forget to buy fireworks because for us, new year would never be complete without it. This situations were like traditions that we always follow.
                But this tradition was cut last new year celebration because my brother was attacked by his asthma. Our money for new year celebration was diverted in buying medicines and we admit him to the hospital.
             In the hospital, my brother told us something about his dream. Before he was attacked by his asthma, he dreamed about my grandfather who died three years at that time and it was his death anniversary. My brother added that my grandfather wanted someone to visit him. So my grandmother concluded that the reason of his asthma was because we forget to visit our grandfather's tomb.
            When my brother got fine, we visited at the cemetery and offer flowers and candles. Elders believe that dead people communicate through dreams. In this situation, I stick on the saying "To see is to believe" but I never wish to see one! :)))

#3 " I Stop To Say Thank You Ma' Pa' "

           Filipinos before and even now are family oriented. They really value their respective families. They give so much importance to the family relationships. Even if their children got married and still they let their children stay in their house and still depend on them. But is this right?? hmm....
              Ten years from now? I see my self working, have a stable job, and have a simple and happy family together with my handsome and beautiful children. With a father of course!! But still, my life wouldn't be complete with out my beloved parents. I love them. Super! That's why ten years from now, I see my self living separately  with them. I don't want to give them  burdens anymore by depending on them even if I already have my own family. But you know what? I swear! I will not stop supporting them. Not just financially but of course in all aspects of life. I want to give  everything they want. As long as I can and as long as I live.
             Words are not enough to say THANK YOU SO MUCH MAMA and PAPA!!! As these saying goes, 'Actions speaks louder than Words.' So even if I let then know everyday how I'm thankful that I have them but I'm not showing it into actions, it is useless. So better put it into actions. I want to take care of them. I want to be the one who will make foods for them. Who will fix their bed, who will comb their hair. I want to be always in their side through thick and thin. Maybe in that way, I can express my gratitude of having them in my life. ^__^
