My Angels.
OK. so enough about my boy life and onto the people that help me get through this world. I like to call these people Angels because Angels are those that guide you and help you, right?
My family is jam-packed with Angels. Mom, Dad, Tita Carol, JB, Ryan and Erica. They are my closest ones but I have them across the Pacific in the motherland too! Nanay, Tatay, Mama Nene, Ninang Min and Susie and so many more. These angels raised me from infancy. Supporting me. Loving me. And even though I may treat them like junk, they are the reasons I live.
My mother is my inspiration. She's gone to hell and back and yet she's still strong and successful. I'm difficult and she still loves me unconditionally giving me the essentials to survive from money to wisdom. Woman's got me covered.
Dad. Tough love kind of father, but he's the best at coming in those right moments when I need him the most. Most people don't understand him because of that, but I do and that's all that matters. He's corny, it's where I get it from. Mmm, fathers. They are a mystery all in themselves.
Brother bear. Jb. My go-to-guy for advice. And not the bull shit kind where I hear what I want, but the real shit. The real, nitty gritty, tear gushing advice. But I love him, he's the one person I know who's always there when I need it.
Tita Carol. Homegirl is a great stepmom. For the years that I needed that mother figure, or that person to talk to my father, she was there. If I was in deep shit, or needed a straight answer, she'd be there for me. And even now, she's cooking me food to bring to my apartment. Which is amazing cos then I don't need to cook AND the food's absolutely DELICIOUS.
Erica is the cutest little sister in the world. She reminds me of the joys in the small things and how it was to see the world as a child. Even though it sucks that I'm a good 12 years older than her so I can't really see her a lot nor bond with her. I hope that one day when she's old enough, I can teach her things and help her through those rough times.
Ryan, oh Ryan. He's frustrating but that person you can never be mad at. He's too cute. He makes me laugh in ways only he can. He's just so full of life and makes me realized the important things like patience and joy. I hope that I can help him become the great person he is destined to be far away from and 13 years his elder.
My Philippine angel's love me from miles away. They raised me and taught me things that I've kept with me to this day. I will never forget them even as their time on this earth ends, they will continue to be my angels from the place they truly belong, heaven.
So, that's not all of them. But, I do have to retire for the night. But it's a long day tomorrow and I can write more.
