In Memory of Papang
One reason why I went home to my native place is not only for vacation but for my father. As long as I can, I wish to visit his burial place and pay homage for the legacy he left me.I have a lot of memorable experiences with him that brought me to my present time. Childhood memories; madami… I started appreciating him as my father after taking a course Marriage Counselling sa Mary Hill School of Theology under Fr. Arsie, MSC. Genogram helped me a lot to understand him. Sa isip ko lang, ano kaya ang naging pananaw n’ya sa buhay when he was at my age…
He was such a kind of a hero for me. Kaya, ito… dedicated ‘to para sa kanya… Kantahin mo na rin while listening to it… mapapaiyak ka, hehehehe…
Last year, the same thing I did for him; clean his burial ground, nagpintura ng nitso and said a little prayer para sa kanya. Since the time he died, I longed for more time to be with him and that became true in prayers. As a catholic who believe in the communion with the saints, my father is truly always with us his family especially during times of difficulties. He always reminded me when I was still a young boy, a hard-headed young boy to listen always to the wise. He was wise, though not really a learned one who graduated from a prestigious university. He was a carpenter, his last profession before he went ahead of us. Thus I became a son of a carpenter. Miss you, ‘pang! Salamat for being a good father to me…
Ito naman ang pamangkin ko… after a year, exactly…
On this day..
