What She Shows is Real (by Kurt Patrick L. Enriquez)

May 10, 2009
 
 
My mom does not rock at all. She is not a superstar nor is she not an international icon. We do not travel nor go out often just to explore new places. She gives allowance that is just right for my everyday expenses. However, these are also the same reasons why I am so proud to be her son. I have learned that it is not in traveling that my experiences will widen. Each day is a new day and so are the things I see and people I encounter each day. Furthermore, I have been able to maximize any amount she gives because she was successful in imparting to me the value of the hard-earned money she puts in my account.
My mother is not perfect. She sometimes nags about the same issues over and over again. In addition, she sometimes does not have time for us because there are a lot of things to do in her jewelry store. But I love her just for the fact that she is my mother and she has been with me all through out my life. I am contented with who she is and how she acts. My mother may not be ideal but I know that what she shows is real.

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!

Renelyn:

Thank you for your heart warming entries. It is a privilege for me to know more about your moms. Happy Mother’s Day!

mymomrocks:

I just wanted to thank everyone who have already submitted their essays. It was very touching to read through all that you have written. You clearly have wonderful mothers, and they clearly have wonderful children.

May families, especially mothers, continue to raise more children to live in dignity!
