November 30th, 2009: Maligayang Bati, po!
Today’s my grandfather’s birthday.
He would have been 79. He died about four years ago…just four days before my 18th birthday. It was brutal.
Nowadays, anyone who tells me stories about his/her grandfather, I can’t help but feel slightly jealous of what they still have. How I wish that, I too, could tell stories about my grandpa that don’t begin with, “My grandfather was…”
But hey, that’s the reality of life; it ends.
Anyway, happy birthday, lolo! You are and will always be one of my favourite men!
I could have made this entry a real tearjerker, but there’s no sense in doing that.
