Not just A Undas but fambond


FAMBOND
A one  of few moment to spend together.


In a not so huge family like ours, a few moment we spend counts. With our busy  life and hectic schedule it is almost impossible for us to gather together, but when a time comes around like this. It is special for us to gather.

Undas is one of the  Filipino tradition, that we usually celebrate in memory of our love ones. To offer prayers , to light  candles, to offer a blessing, flowers and their favorite food and beverages. These are one the common things we do to them. At the same time, we talk and reminisce the time when they were alive, on what they are doing, their hobby. We usually commemorate this event on November 2nd and since it's on my birthday we double the celebration.

Just a small gathering, eating lunch together, makin funny stories, talking about your work or what are the things happen to you for the past month. Also, it is our time discuss family issues and make a resolution.

This photo were takin after our visitation on the family member around the cementery.
Some of the family went home early to prepare our lunch.

The grave of my aunt and Lolo on my fathers side. On my mothers side we just offer them prayers coz their grave is far from where we live. It is in Cebu so when you want to visit them you get bu a plane or by a boat :)  maybe in  some other time, when we got a chance to commemorate undas in Cebu.

Quitting a Job

So much for the toxic. Something their comes to your life that everything is just a mess. You get bored, you get tired and you just fall.  Every thing went blank, and all you say is STOP. You love the people and your workmate around you. But it is not enough sometimes you need to find yourself to be okay. That's why I decide to quit. To quit, not because I lose. But to find myself. I am not me. Goodbye for now Davao.
