SOMETIMES

Last night, just to lull me to sleep, I put on an old Carpenters CD and was touched by the last song in their Carpenters album. It’s entitled “Sometimes” (click to listen to the song) and it reminded me of a very important thing that is quite often neglected – making our loved ones feel appreciated.


Sometimes not often enough
We reflect upon the good things
And those thoughts always center around those we love
And I think about those people who mean so much to me
And for so many years have made me so very happy
And I count the times I have forgotten to say thank you
And just how much I love them


On that note, let me say thank you and I love you to all the people who mean so much to me: Tatay Nanay Junior Marilou Elma Alding Biboy Toto Jing and their respective families. Jun Tony Tatay Rudy Geni Norrie Joji Ronnie Papa Herman John Connie Jimmy Mike Roger Pat Ike Rex Ricky Eddie Mandy Mercy Galie Kuya Ed Harry Rollie Mila Rene Remil Boy Danny Billy Jun Dom Mike Manfred Monika Florian Johannes Lukas Mark Jens Ulli Mahdi Nizar Klaus Renate Alan Kris Dave George Allen Weny Ed Nona Joseph DBD Ralph Glenn and most especially to my so so so loved Jom.
