Thankful and grateful

Ate at Superbowl, Robinson's Ermita. I drove going there. My sister drove going back home.

These past couple of days have been more than I thought I could ever handle. Somehow, I kind of saw it coming but I never really expected it to happen. Nonetheless, I am so thankful to God for being with me and my family every single step of the way. Despite a couple of turbulences and what seemed like a very long roller-coaster ride of ups and downs.. I am just glad its over. Thank you to everyone who's been praying for my mom's recovery. She's trying to re-gain strength and despite what she has, she too is fighting hard and is very motivated to win over it in God's will.

If there's one thing that I have learned throughout everything, its that nobody can every go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending. We have our own time on our hands, its on our own grip and its really up to us, whether or not we wanna make a difference or a change with it.

Today was the first time my mom was able to go out after her surgery. I missed having her old self back, bossing us around, making us do this-and-that, telling us what not to do and how it should have been done. Everything brought me back to the memories of my childhood. Honestly, I've learned so much through these.. I've learned to appreciate her, as my mom and as a person (not that I never did, its just I do appreciate her much much more now). It has tested my patience, nursing her and being there when she needed anything. I have learned to set my priorities straight and always put her first despite my schedule with our school exhibit. I, also learned how much sacrifices she's put out for me and my siblings and now its my turn to do some for her. I am aware that I still have a lot to learn, and everyday with her I will cherish much more than the next. Okay, for about a month of not posting, I think this post has made up for it. To end it, I shall attach some pictures with this post (Mama's asking me to prepare dinner so I gots to go!)

Cheers,
GOD BLESS
Happy weekend everyone C:
