Changing Batteries

March 10, 2013 12:33 AM , 13 Comments , Jhari

A friend posted this over Facebook and I cried in buckets. I hope you’ll have a spare time watching this short clip. In less than 6 minutes, I hope that it’ll reach your inner core and feel blessed to still have your parents with you.

I so miss my parents back home. And watching this video made me realized that I’m blessed to have them until now. I hope that they are proud of what I’ve become.

Naalala ko tuloy mom ko. She just passed away last October. Good thing the Lord sent us back to the Philippines a year ago. At least nakasama at naalagaan ko pa rin kahit papaano si mommy.

lahat yata tayo nakakrelate sa video. one of the reasons kaya ayoko umalis ang parents ko dito sa lugar namin and decided to live in Cebu kasi ang rason ay ayoko lumayo sa kanila. I have my own family yet i always see to it na lagi ko silang kasama.

ps. i watched the video with Derek and he almost cry asking why did the robot slipped battery inside the granny’s pocket, kasi hindi naman daw siya robot. Sana daw pinainom nalang ng gamot.

  Awww… Natuwa naman ako kay Derek
  
  Yeah, tayo talagang mga Pinoy hindi basta basta talaga maka hiwalay sa parents noh? Iba kasi ang closeness talaga.

I watched the whole video and I remember one story I told my son about a mom who’s aged (referring to myself) and left by her children because they had their own families and busy with work. It’s somehow similar to this video. I wanted to impart to him the importance of communication and care for each other even when we become busy with a lot of things. haaay… =(

  I so agree to that Louise. We Filipinos are really into that perception, unlike others countries where they will just abandon their parent and live a life of their own. Sad but true
