The day came when Ma, Pa, and little sis left for the USA.
I went home to Cebu last weekend to spend some good times and bid them goodbye.
They left last June 26. They flew with Asiana Airlines via Seoul, Korea and then LA.
The drama at the airport was like any drama for families with some members leaving for abroad. Now I know how OFWs feel. huhuhuh...
I will surely miss them.
God bless you always Ma, Pa, and Charm.
Things will turn out well if God wills it.
Enjoy your stay in the US.

Independence Day realizations...
I have beautiful realizations today...12th of June, the Philippines' Independence Day...
I realized that...
...when you are stressed, down, demotivated, all you need is just someone to talk to, someone to listen to whatever you say, someone who shares similar experiences with you.
....I am indeed a late bloomer.
....I may have experienced certain things later in my life while others experienced them earlier on but it doesn't mean I am behind. Time is personal. Time is subjective. If we all experienced the same things at the same time, the world would be crazier, more chaotic than it actually is. Indeed, there is a time and a place for everything.
....from conflicts and difficulties, you learn a great deal of lessons.
....a great leader understands the capabilities of his team and knows how to work around their strengths and weaknesses.
....we all need mentors and coaches.
...it's okay to be vulnerable. It's okay that people understand your weaknesses.
...think twice, thrice before sending an email especially if you are emotionally charged.
...there is so much relief in being able to talk it out with someone.
....it pays to be able to discuss things with the opposite sex.
...there is freedom in writing out one's thoughts!
