PIT SEÑOR

I will just date this blog
January 2009


One of the most awaited part of the year, aside from Christmas, is this January for the celebration of "Fiesta Señor" or more widely used term as "Sinulog". Being a pious person, I'm really devoted to the Santo Niño in Cebu. It is been part of my weekly routine to go to the Basilica to attend mass every friday for the whole year.

Another trial strucked me again. It is about my health. Since the last week of the year I am sick. I have one absent of Misa de Gallo, the first absent for 9 years consecutively present always. It stoped during Christmas until my birthday (maybe because I am very eager to celebrate it with full energy). I also missed the chance to experience the Edge Coaster Ride in Crown Regency because I am not feeling well from the 28th until on the 31st of December.

I decided to have a medical chek-up since I had a cough that was almost a week, I was terrified. I then go to stanford medical to check my conditions. True to my feelings I do have a Pneumonia, but thank God it is not that critical yet, pneumonits are just forming so I can still beat them with antibiotic.

I asked from my immediate supervisor to give me a 2 week rest while recovering from my illness. Still when I am having my rest I do my solemn obligation as a devotee of the Holy Child, thus completing all the novenas and activities for the festivities on Honor to Him.

What I realized during my sickness is that the Santo Niño doesn't want me to be absent during the celebration of Hia feast. Because if I was not sick then I will continue to work in the Jollibee and by that time Sinulog is one of the busiest time of the year. If i still continue to work maybe I cannot attend the services in honor of the Holy Child. And also, through my sickness, I've learned to take care of myself.
