Hello everyone!
Just wanted to share with you guys the story about my father,Well, yes, I came from a broken family and away from him, since I was born, he has never been around, also I don't even know how it feels to have a real one.😌
If you even remember, I already said in my blog before, which is in my first introduction and in international women’s day blog, that my mom raised us without him, we are three siblings of them, my elder sister’s name is Geraldine, the middle is my sister Jennalyn and I’m the youngest. He left my mother when I was only 5 months that time, well it was a story from my grandmother, they told us that there so many things that happen between my mom and my father the real problem was because of jealousy.
Jealousy is a number one difficult to resist. It’s feelings or emotions that can totally ruin a relationship. It’s composed of different emotions such as helplessness, anger, insecurity, fear, and obsession.
Anyways, nobody is perfect relationship like they are, and I do believe everything happens for a reason. So, as we go to my Topic how did I met him… one day we received a message from a stranger my sisters and I chatted by someone we do not know, he asking if we are the daughters of our mother Rowena and his uncle Leonardo , Yes My father’s name is Leonardo but he married my mother in his named Reynaldo all of us don’t know what is the reason why he hide his real name to to my Mother. Up until we grow older all we know his name was that.
The stranger introduces us who he is, he was a Priest, and we are cousins in my father's side, his mother is elder sister of my father, they are searching for us for how many years. but there so Many things what happen as he said his mother died and they stop searching us up until now they tried to contact us because of what happened to our father. They give us the information about where he is. And knowing now he’s in the City of Marikina but the news made my tears fall down and feel like crushing down when I heard the word he’s gone.
They give us an instruction how we are going to find him. and without hesitant we decided to visit him as soon as possible, since my second sister is residing now in Bulacan and her husband, they invited us to come in Bulacan in their house to sleep over so we can early travel in the next day to our father. Because Bulacan is more closer to Marikina. So, my elder sister and I decided to travel from Tarlac to Bulacan.
We decided to take a leave from our work so we can visit him. 🙂
We travel for almost 3 hours of commuting from Bulacan to Makati. As we reach the location, we’re our father is, we meet one of our aunts to guide us in his house.
And there he is …
As we found out so many stories about my father. He also married to the last woman he had been with, and they don’t get a chance to have siblings. I found out that he was 20 years older than my mom, But we found out we have a step brother too and his name is Joel, we also meet him! and yes, we found out that he has also son before he meet my mom, and he was late 50’s now. That was a surprise LOL😅 We had little talk about the past and getting to know each other.
And before we finished the day, we also meet our cousin who is priest the one who search us, and we are so thankful to him even if it's too late, he still gives us a chance to meet our father for last.
still had a great time to meet them..
This was the first and last I saw my dad. And I don’t know how I would feel at that time, there were so many questions in my mind, but I already forgave him for leaving us. All I can say is You may rest now dad.
I actually made a short video for him.😊
CLICK AND LISTEN
The title of the song that I used here is “Dance with my father.” By Luther Vandross. This song still really makes me cry when I heard It. It was a very heartfelt song for losing a father that hoping a chance for the last memories together. And I also feel that way knowing that I can’t talk to him anymore. You are blessed If you still have a complete family, so don’t waste your time. Make them memories together and make them feel how you love them. Because life is too short. Only God knows how long our stay here in this world...
And that’s all for my lifescape stories😊
