Papa's Love for us

Before i was born my papa became a driver of a jeep and my mama serve as a "konduktor" while she bare me in her tummy , both of them work hard for the preparation of my coming here on earth , while working hard driving they have a big piggy bank, and all their "ginansiya" were put on that piggy bank . After working hard,saving money for my coming here on earth, after  8 months, i came out from my mother's womb , both of them struggles in life , i begin to grow as a little kid .

I remember events with my dad, while i won't see him for a week or a month, he rarely went home because of his projects that  were so far from CDO, Traveling always, But the best thing is when he come's home, i remember running so fast just to reach him and hold his arm or hands walking back home, sometimes he bring special "PASALUBONG" for us, and love his pasalubong. When he came home he loves to treat us to shop at the mall,eating on our favorite food chain, buying toys, clothes, and shoes.

My papa's arm became my comfort whenever i feel weak and trials and challenges i face when i am growing up,He became my protector or should i say knight and shining armor whenever someone bullying me at school. 

He became my MENTOR , teaching me much about the GOSPEL and the life of Jesus Christ , he helps me when i have hard math assignments on school, gearing a wire to produce light and sometimes fetching us from school. He always tells us to live in a righteous life, and telling us to Don't waste their efforts because they are trying their best to give us what we want.  He also tells us stories about his childhood life , he live in a very hard life family, his hardship in going to school until college. That's why he never wanted us to live like he lived before.

He also became my teacher, teaching me how real life is, he help me realize that this life need's you to be mature in facing different kinds of people. He teach me how to be reverent in Sacrament, and he teach me how to respect other people , He teach me how to love each and everyone i meet. 

His arm's of love became my strenght when my mom decided to work abroad. He became our "MAMA AND PAPA" he cook for our breakfast and sometimes do the laundry. And at the same time work as a contractor again, He became our strenght when everything seem went wrong in our lives. I remember he gave me a Father's Blessing in taking an exam at CMU and also at STI .

He is my example, he never surrender nor stops in life, i admire him of his unconditional love for his Daughters , He served the Lord well, inspite of Trials and challenges came through his life , He became my example to learn to love the less fortunate people. 

I admire him of being a good son to his parents, a good uncle, a good leader, an exemplary PAPA to his 2 Daughter's , a good and best husband to my MAMA, our protector, knight and shining Armor, a Mentor, teacher , a COOL Papa of all, Teodulo G. Quijada Jr.
