Jitters Before Father's Day

Today, our son went home to the province together with his grandmother to have a little vacation of their own. Honestly, it is a bit heartbreaking to see him leave, especially this morning when we accompanied them out and called for a cab.

It is quite different when you are already used to seeing a little tyke inside the house. Our son REM simply makes our day easier the moment we get home from a long day’s work. It is like having to remove all our worries and stress literally when we see him. He does not even have to do anything… all we need is the sight of him and everything is fine. Since he will not be around, the house will surely be a lot quieter.

Family From My Perspective

How do you define family?

Different people give different answers for this question; however, according to my former pastor, “A family is not what you have now like your father and mother, or brother and sister, but the members that you are going to build in the future.” Maybe it was one of his ways to encourage the members of the church, particularly those who came from broken families, to be inspired and not to lose hope that someday they will also have a perfect family to call their own.
