Hi guys! I missed out so much lately and I apologize for that. I know I was lagging with my blogging hobby and I am guilty as charge. LOL.
It's been a long time now that I haven't blog and I think the last blog I have posted was been on May 10. May 10 was the birthday of my father and my little sis. I missed my dad a lot.
He died in 1997 due to End Stage Renal Disease. But I still remember the strong person I used to idolized. Reticent but very responsible. Very strict when provoked but a loving soft person. Although we haven't talked that much I know how much he loved his seven kids.
I know he drinks a lot yet he never ceases to amaze me. He's a very obedient husband and loving father to his adored wife and seven roudy children. When he talks he exudes command and we were scared when he gets mad. I missed him so much especially now that is Father's Day.
Every year we got to celebrate a day for our famous and dearest father. My father is a very influential person to me. I know he got a lot of frustrations in his life yet he never missed to fulfill his responsibilities for us his kids and also to my doted mom.
It's just sad to know that he passed away at a very young age of 55. I know he had a lot of dream for us and I know he is secured now with our Creator. I know he is looking down on me from heaven and I can always feel his presence by my side.
He is the man I never heard complaining about life's tribulations. I can say that he's a little bit stoical about life's challenges but he never turn his back at it. He faces all life's challenges with determination and he never give up with it. That's why I am a fan of my dad.
I can never forget the first lesson I got from him. He taught me how to catch shrimp in the river, he taught me how to drive my first bicycle, he taught me how to cultivate the soil and grow plants, that's why I have a green thumb, he taught me my first cooking lessons. He taught me everything on how to survive life and I was so indebted with him in shaping my life.
I know he doesn't approved of me to choose being gay but he eventually accepted my decisions. I brought him honor by maintaining my academic performances in school at par. He was so proud of me when he don my first medal and ribbon on every recognition day from elementary to college. He and my mom were very proud of me.
Too sad that He and mom hasn't been with me here in America because they both passed away early on. My dream fro them was to see America before they grow old but that wasn't realized at all. I was crushed really. Oh how I missed them both.
Despite him and mother had quite some petty quarrels at times I know they were both in love at each other. They prove to my grandparents that they were both meant for each other because they established a big family and they were together until the end. My mom never remarried after he died and my mom was been faithful to him till the end.
I then realized how they loved with each other and I was so proud to have them both as my parents. Dad.... mom..... where ever you are Imissed you both. Happy Father's Day to you dad..... and please visit me sometimes and wrap me with your presence so that it will quench my thirst of having you.
I love you and I missed you so much my dear Tatay. Whatever you do and were ever you are I know you are still thinking of me..... you and mom were thinking of me. I am really grateful and thankful to have you both as my beloved parents. Love you both!
