Happy birthday, Nanay!

Today is my mother’s birthday. She is 57 years old had she been alive. I will go home tonight to celebrate with the family. We miss her so much, but her memory will live forever.

When she passed away, we discovered something very shocking. Her actual birthday was on March 10 and not in April. Instead, April 10th was her christening day. Anyway, we celebrate her birthday in April.

I realize, you can live all your life deprived of some things (like believing in something that may not be the fact) yet manage to have a wonderful life spent to the fullest. It’s God who makes life beautiful.
