My Lenten Prayer

Papa
Thank you for being my father. Thank you for the love, respect and acceptance. We may have the roughest journey but always keep in mind and heart that you're and will be forever part of our HOME.

Mama
Keep the faith - you're never alone, I'm here. Even at the expense of your own wellness - you'd persevere to give us our basic needs. That's why I'm very excited to graduate and to get a job - this will give me the opportunity to give you the best this world has to offer for a very hard working Mom.

Tetent, Joma and Kimmy
I know what happened triggered a lot of questions. But please keep in mind and heart that you are loved and nothing will change that.

God
Thanks for entrusting this problem to me and my family. We are thankful because little by little we are moving forward. It was a very difficult challenge, God. The tears may be painful but it was worth it! One request, God. Quoting a friend:
"Ibuhos mo ng lahat - Wag mo lang akong iwan."

Manoy Jess,

Hindi man ako biniyayaan ng isang kumpletong pamilya. Hindi man ako biniyayaan ng isang magandang bahay at magarang pamumuhay. Hindi man ako binigyan ng karapatan na pumili kung ano ang magiging pananaw saakin ng lipunan dahil saaking kasarian.

Lahat ng ito ay bale-wala dahil alam kong ako'y minamahal mo ng lubusan katulad ng pagmamahal ko sa'yo (siguro mahigit pa nga). Lahat ng ito ay hindi iniinda dahil alam kong pag-uwi ko ng bahay, wala man akong Tatay, sa Iyong pag-gabay ako'y hind i uhaw.

Salamat sa walang sawang pagbibigay ng mga problema.

Hindi ako magtatampo. Hindi rin ako magrereklamo.

Kasi alam kon g sa mga oras na ito, Ako'y yakap mo. Alam kong sa mga oras na ito'y, akay-akay mo ako.

Alam kong sa mga oras na ito, dama mo ang hapdi at kirot sa puso ko.

Medyo mahapdi pa, pero alam kong darating ang araw na lahat ng ito'y maghihilom.
