My EULOGY to my mother. "The next time you think of wonderful things that God has made don’t forget to include yourself. You’re a blessing. Yes, you are you.” My mother was a good person. A happy person. That’s why the happy memories were the one that always stuck whenever we reminisce her. We really have no idea kung anu muabot sa amun. Within 1 week sa ospital, sa kadamu kag kakusug/kadasig sa nagkatinabo, nabatyagan namun daw damgu lang gid tanan. My mother had a dream way before siya naospital. She’s at the beach, standing at the water were men with hood and God is floating in the distance. A child led her toward God and she found herself inside the Villamonte church near us. Maybe it’s a sign from God already for my mother. God’s love reaching out to her. That her time is coming up. Another sign from God was when she was at her private room ready to be transferred to the ICU, she saw many angels and they are dancing. Ate asked: Nag-anu man sila ma? Ma: Nagsayaw-sayaw/ Ate: Ikaw ma, nagsayaw ka lat ma?/ Ma: Ambut sa inyo ah (nag-ugtas kay budlay kuno mag-sulti)/ Pa: OO ah, kasagad/ kamaau sina musayaw sa imu mama. Nag.tango pa gina siya.(smile) Another sign from God FOR US this time that it was really mom’s time was when at Sunday we attend mass and the pastor talk about LIFE. It was like God Himself was assuring us, comforting us. According to him, we don’t know when our life will end and how. And the length of our life doesn’t matter. It’s how we live our life. How then should we live our life? He said, by serving God, praising Him, living by His Word and offering our life to Him. My mother was a humble servant of God. She was selfless, generous, helpful, kind, understanding and never caused or wished bad ills on other people, even if they have hurt her. As sulti gani ni ate, daw kasubra na gni usahay/kis-a ang iya pagkamatinabangon. Pero amu gina ang nag-pa-identify sa iya kag amu ina ang ma-remember naton sa iya. I am very proud that she’s my mother. With our shared talks I realized na wa nay makalabaw na iban na mama sa iya. Si mama ang tawo nga smiling, cheerful, mag-sulit2x maghambal, dako pasensya especially sa mga bata, kusog mangaral o manermon pero indi pangakig, kusog mu-please sa mga tawo, kusog manghatag, maalalahanun kag maintiendihun. But there are people who can’t understand my mom’s good intentions. Maybe that’s how life works. We can’t please everybody. I am very proud of my mother and we love her very much. Kay ako baya gayud sina pirmi gapamati kay mama, at times, about sa mga hinanakit o kasadyaan niya kag the more I listen the more I realized that she was raised very well as a probinsiyana, that she’s better than any other parents I know. Kay biskan anu pa na nga sitwasyon, di gid na siya kalimut mu-remind sa amun na dli gid kami manumdum lain sa iban, di ka mag-wish lain sa ila biskan nanu pa sila nga klase di ka magyaga-yaga. I always pray na ma-protektahan si mama sa mga kasakit and God did answer. Although this is truly unexpected. But at least wa siya daun gikuha diba? Nka.service pa kmi sa iya sa ospital and we are very thankful for I know she felt our deep love for her, eventhough it’s hard watching her that way. Mom, your teachings and values will be carried on. Sa kadamu stress niya dri, kapoy, kag worries, she is happy now. She’s with the angels. Although wala last words sa amun si mama but we understood what she want to say and we have said all what we want to say. To mom. Please don’t worry about us here. We will be strong for each other, we will try to hold our pain because the right thing to do is to go on with our lives, be there for each other, take care of each other. We will try to laugh amidst this trial, because you wouldn’t want us to be sad. It would be hard letting you go, but we have our friend, cousins, titas, titos. You are loved by many and you will always be around us and with us. :(
