OMG! When I was on my high school to college days, me and my parents do not have time to communicate. On teens, I am busy with my barkada and studies (kunwari nagaaral). Lakwatsa dito, aral, alis, practise, etc. My college life, I am really busy climbing way to the top and busy with my religious affair. Actually, minsan di alam nila nanay and tatay na nasa room na ako unless they will see some lights escaping my door. After college, I went for board exam and after passing it, I got job.
Most of my jobs ate all my time, even time for my bf. That was the phase of my life that career, money, and fame at the Bureau came first. Naalala ko pa si nanay, sabi nya, "di ngayon, pero sisingilin ka ng maaga ng katawan mo sa abusong ginagawa mo.". I am sleep-deprived back then.
Now...I am married, and staying here at Singapore, I am really missing them a lot. As I think, I have so many wasted time, sana pala I spent it wisely. Kesa yung ninunuood-nood ko ng TV sa room ko eh nakipagkwentuhan na lng ako sa kanila. Anyways hindi pa huli ang lahat. Hanggat makakagawa ako ng paraan to let them know how much I appreciate all the things they had done to me, lalo na ang strict rules they set sa aming magkakapatid, all the efforts to give us all the best things and all the love that they showered onto us.
I hope this blog will enlighten some of the readers how valuable the parents are. Make them feel they are important. Make them feel they are special. Spend time with them.
Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise; (Ephesians 6:2)
