It's so happy to look back again. Seventy five years of my life passed already. And thinking about it, a smile on my face automatically appears. It was years ago but it seems like everything just happened recently. I was born on January 31, 1991, raised by Juliet and Teody, my parents. I have an older sister. She was my playmate and we lived in a barrio, with a few neighbors, which include my cousins. I definitely had a wonderful childhood. We play and share stories. Life with this I would say being a child is so simple, you laugh, you smile, you also easily cry. And you eventually grow. My teenage years. I spent it living with the fullest. Met too many great friends, who are a lot a like me; carefree, happy and cool teens. Dwelling on my teenage part of my life, I can still remember some issues. I was baptized as a Roman Catholic, hear mass every Sundays and I am much closer to God when I'm 16. Then I went to college. It was like I have a God, I pray when I remember to pray, I hear mass when I'm in the mood . I was too unfair with God. I go to Him when I'm down, he lifts up my spirits. I make a wish and he grants it. That was some of spiritual issues and it was so relieving to be able resolve them. Then I enter the corporate world or known as the real world. There and then I was able to resolve other issues (teen dramas) and I'm a successful career woman. I started as a simple employee then I got promoted. I was a hardworking employee. I grew, I became more mature because I'm already facing the real challenges of life. I learned to TRY because I can now accept that I'm a person, I can FAIL. there's nothing wrong with failing, "that God will always be beside you to guide and walk with you in life's journey. Then I quit my job. My parents gave/ let me handle our business. Well, ever since they have trusted, they never doubted me (It may be that I don't understand them on my earlier years because I'm too childish and I'm not mature enough). Handling our business was not that hard, gaining respect and leading the people the right way helped me a lot. Inner me unleashed my hidden talents and abilities to lead the people. I was capable of doing things. With experiences I am more sociable ( more sociable than ever) and in one of the party I attended, my husband and I crossed our paths. He was, still and will be partner of my life forever. He may not be the perfect husband but he is definitely the best and the one meant for me. He showed the different faces of the world and opened my eyes on my other issues to mold me more. I played the part of loving, understanding and trying-to-be-perfect wife and the best mom with our kids. my three kids grew too fast, and now they also have their own kids. I could not elaborate more the way I raised my kids but all I could say is that my parent's style of molding is also my style :)
Oh glorious years passed by, now I am sitting in this chair around the garden. I invited my siblings' family to spend time us. I excused myself to write this autobiography and try to remember the fruitful years. I can the see the small ones playing and goofing around and the elders and my parents having a good laugh with a small discussion about the politics. Could I say that our family is really not into politics but almost all of our business is related with government. My sister is running her own hospital and her husband is a corporate lawyer, who owns a law firm. My little brother is the head of engineering department of the construction company known globally and his wife is running their business. this reminds me to call my friends and share a good laugh with them, we all shared different funny and sad stories.
My story, there is nothing to wish for material things, I am more than ever contented with my life. My only prayer is that more people would and continue to help our foundation, so we could continue to share more blessings to others.
Life now is not complicated anymore. I am old now. I have God beside me no matter what will happen tomorrow, i can still smile with every good or bad news. even if there are too many wrinkles appear when i smile. my smile is REAL. God love me and every one of us, we just need time to see it. This is not the end because God will still give me missions to accomplish.
Wait., my husband is looking for me.
*still kinikilig on the part of meeting my husband :)
Sorry, the thoughts, ideas and everything is mixed up and there are parts where the setting is fast while some are slow. We were only given half an hour or an hour to write this and I was crying really hard before writing
Enjoy reading! (who ever you are)
