My Parents' 38th Wedding Anniversary

On May 19, we celebrated my parents' 38th wedding anniversary. Hard as it may seem but it's the 2nd wedding anniversary that we celebrated without my Papa around. Missing him is an understatement...

It was a Monday and so we weren't able to visit Papa in his resting place. Simple meals and gifts for Mama (I've given her a set of beauty essentials), our  greetings with hugs and kisses were all enough for her to cheer up. A offered prayer for my Papa's soul and for my mom's strength to face the loneliness of missing Papa and the challenges that will come along our way. There are still a lot of things to do, so many dreams to achieve in so little time. God grant us the hours and chance to achieve them.


Wherever you are Pops, Happy Wedding Anniversary to you and Mama! We love and miss you!

Another Great Song To Aid My Grief

I've been listening to the song Takipsilim since last week and hands down to Gloc 9 and Regine Velasquez! Being in the same genre of OPM but having different styles, I never expected that their collaboration will become a huge success! Musically, the song is superb. Not too melancholic and not that upbeat. It's a great candidate for a LSS (Last Song Syndrome) indeed. Lyrically, it's one of the best. I could say that the literal meaning and the underlying tones of the song discuss a lot of things in life. The song is like a short story that tackles about the people we lose, the actions we did prior to losing that special someone, the regrets, the realization that we couldn't never take them back and the lesso- everything enveloped with a music that is a mixture of subtle melodies that allows you to reminisce and reflect and the upbeat tones that'll energize you with loads of positivity and to look forward to a brand new life! To learn from the mistakes of the past, to face what has happened with full acceptance and an undying faith to God to get up and move on with our lives from that pain.
