Mommy Rocks (by Renalinda Tan)
May 10, 2009
If you were to ask me why my mom rocks the most aside from having a great sense of fashion, It is not because she’s part of a very famous rock band but simply because she loves me. When I was a baby even without a rocking chair my mom would rock her whole body to help me go to sleep so I would feel safe and warm.
Even though at times work kept her busy, when it comes to my needs especially my health, she’s my doctor. For her, Family comes first before work.
In my second year in high school we had a project wherein we are to bring 6 pictures of people whom we think portray Jesus as a person. Bringing my mom’s photo that time, I would decide if she is Jesus as Lord, Son of God, Prophet, Priest, King, or Christ. After a few times of thinking, I placed her photo beside the word Christ. Why Christ? Because she has always sacrificed her life for me to show me a world full of joy and hope like Jesus did through the cross. She accepted me despite my imperfections and never gave up on me when I experience failures. Her faith is as strong as a rock and from then on, she made me realize how important God is in my life. Hence, She is a model not only for clothes but also a role model for others.

I’ve only been in the Philippines for a short time but its clear to me it’s an amazing place. Anyway, I just stopped by because I’m looking for blogs about filipino life and found your site on yahoo. If you have any tips on places to try when in Manila then I’d love you to share them with me. Make the most of Holy Week!
