It happened that my cousin, uncle, and the wife of my other cousin celebrate their birthdays on the same week. Exciting isn't? So the excitement started when they arrived in the morning and we got to meet UNO again! Yay! And I had a closer look of him now. He also got to see everyone in the family. (Except for tatay because he has gone for Quezon.) As usual, we had this exchange of stories about the other family members in the province. Updates on our lives and the usual "Alam mo ba---?" portion of talking.
The realization? It is truly fulfilling to be with your family. That no matter how much problems come your way, there are people who will surely back you up. There's this feeling of comfort that you cannot find in any of your friends, or even your love partner. No one can actually replace them, and I am just so blessed to have a complete family. I am seeing a lot of people with separated parents, or deceased mother or father or sibling. And I just feel sad for them, and proud at the same time because they can actually continue life. My family is my comfort zone. I can't afford to lose any of them. They may want to live a life of their own, that's fine. What's important to me is that I know I have them even if I don't actually being with them.
Driving lesson update: I had another round of training with my brother. And I almost hit my cousin. Hehe. But still well done for a trainee.
Family bonding. Why I Love Weekends.
