Trying weeks
August 3, 2007 by blogs-from-jupiter
The past weeks were trying weeks. Mama was diagnosed with pneumonia and she was hospitalized for a week. She is much better now though we still have to visit a pulmonary specialist. Mom is diabetic so she really has to take good care of her health. So far, she’s been religious with her diet, meds and check ups. Well, mom’s not getting younger; we really have to take good care of her.
The father of my good friend Tita Avi just passed away, and we all know how death devastates people. I met my Tita Avi last year through a common friend and since then, lots of beautiful things happened, she’s like a spiritual mother to her anak-anakans. She is the same age as Mom; she is like a second mother to me that is why I call her Mamita (well, almost everyone I know call her Mamita).
Aside from that, a lot of people I know have been experiencing emotional, spiritual and financial turmoil. Probably, it’s because of the full moon (probably that’s also the reason why Mom had full moon-ia! {pulmunya} he he he). You know, when the full moon is up, people do crazy things.
I have the same tirade these past days but thanks to prayers, all were well. Not that the problems were solved, I am just faithful and confident that the One Up There is in charge of the situation. I started praying not for myself anymore; but for other people, especially those people whom I know are in dire straits. The Good Lord knows my heart’s desires, and I know He will answer my prayers at the right place, at the right time. I just have to be patient.
