Happy Mother's Day to all Mothers

Today, I join the whole world in greeting all mothers a happy and blessed Mother's Day!

What will be the fate of the world if there are no mothers to bear, rear and sacrifice for all of us. I bet that this world would be a dull one.

I remember the days of my youth when my mom is doing everything just to bring food to the table and support our education. My father has a job, but like many Filipino fathers, his salary is not enough to support the family. My mother didn't hesitate to wash other people's clothes and sell various things to increase the family income. She even had to humble herself to borrow money that will be used for our tuition every start of a semester.

I know that my mother sacrificed a lot for me. That's why I can say that I am so blessed to have her as my mother. I feel so loved even now that I am already a grown-up man.

Did you know that Mother's Day originated in the Catholic Church's fourth Sunday of Lent, which is the day when Mama Mary is honored as the mother of the Church?

Mama Mary is mother of Christians. Remember when Jesus, while He is nailed on the cross, told the beloved disciple (Saint John the Evangelist) that Mary is to be his mother. Thiese words of our Lord signify that He is appointing His mother to be the mother of all of his disciples. All of us, “modern day” Christians, are also her sons and daughters because we are the current disciples of her Son. That is why it is very fitting to greet Mama Mary a HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY.

Today is an extra special day because we also celebrate to feast of Our Lady of Fatima.

I love you Mama Mary!

Happy Mother's Day to All Filipina Mothers

This morning, I read an e-mail from Nuffnang that contains this image:

The words in the advertisement says, “This is how close you are in the past. Hope that you are still this close this Mother's Day.”

I agree. For 9 months, we are so close with our mothers. We are inside of their womb being nourished and protected by our loving mother. That is why our mothers are the most special woman for all of us, even before the sons met their wives.

For 9 months, we are inside of her body. For our whole childhood, we are under her care.

So to all mothers there, especially to all Filipina mothers, “HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY” to all of you.

Are you thinking of a gift that you can offer to all Filipina moms? Well, there is one gift that you can offer all Filipina mothers and that is opposing the Reproductive Health Bill. This bill promotes artificial family planning tools that are dangerous to the health of Filipina mothers.

So if you have love and respect to all Filipina moms, then please oppose the RH Bill.

Happy Mother's Day

Ah Mothers!

What will happen to all of us if they do not exist? Obviously, we will also not exist.

Our mothers are the ones who gave us our lives. They are the ones who endured the sleepless nights, when we are just little babies, so as to keep us safe and comfortable. They are the ones who cry first on all of our failure and they are the first ones who are delighted to our all of our success. They are their prop us up when we fell.

My friend just sent me an SMS message that goes like this:

"I believe in love at first sight. Since the very first day that my eyes opened, she is the one I first saw and the very first person that I loved. I love you mom."

How true! We learned to love because we are loved by our mothers.

For this special day, let me greet my blogger friends who are mothers - who are great mothers. I am giving this little token for their being great moms for their kids.

This badge is for my dear mother, who is always there for me. I am also offering this token to my blogger friends who are great mothers.

Happy Mother's Day to Faye, Mai Mai, and Marites.

The Mother's Day badge was obtained from Wonder Clip Arts.
