When I was a kid, I always listened to Jollibee's Isang
Pamilya album. Yes! I'm a Jollibee baby back then. Anyway, there was one song
written by Ogie Alcasid for the album. The title was Dear God.
Here's my
favorite part...
"Bago ko ipikit ang mata ng mahigpit. Bago pa
managinip, kayo ang nasa isip. Ang tahanang ito may pagibig na totoo. Kaya abot
hanggang langit ang pasasalamat ko. Dear God, salamat po sa pamilyang ito.
Huwag niyo pong pababayaan ang mga minamahal ko. Dear God, salamat po
panalangin ko'y dinggin. Sana laging may pagibig sa tahanan namin..."
It's my favorite because I know even if we have
misunderstandings and differences; we have love in our family. We're not the
perfect family or even trying to be one. We are the best in our own way and that's
what I love about my family.
And I am not a good daughter. At times, yes but most of the
time, I am really stubborn. I may have abused my parents' patience for me but
at the end of the day, love will reign over us. I can't remember when I showed
them the love that they deserve. Guess I'm not really that showy. I am into
words... That's why I'm writing this.
Today is mother's day and I wanted to say these meaningful
words to her.
I LOVE YOU FOREVER! <3
My mama always does the chores at home and I barely help
her. I always sit around at home and let her do the chores.
But when I graduated, I tried bit by bit to help her. She
would ask me to run errands for her and I would. At first, I hesitated since
I'm lazy at times but I told myself, she rarely asked favors from me.
But above all, I want to say sorry for everything I did and
refused to do in the past. I'm sorry Mama. I am really sorry. I love you with
all of my heart. Thank you because if it wasn't for you and Papa, I wouldn't be here in this world. Thank you with all of my heart!
I know these words won't suffice but I just want to let you
know, I will make mistakes again and again; even forget the things you told me.
But one thing's for sure, I LOVE YOU FOREVER!!
Let this words come alive in the coming days, months, years,
and forever that we will be together with Paput Paguddy. My Mamut Maguddy, you’re
one in a million. You’re my diamond star!
