Hello there,

I'm sorry to hear about your baby son. I know what it is like to lose a loved one abruptly. I lost my father more than a year ago to cancer, just two months after he was diagnosed with terminal lung CA. it was already on its 4th stage and it was very difficult for us to comprehend. It's stil hard everyday but everyday I give extra effort to heal and grieve for the pain to lessen.

They are our angels now and I keep thinking that God made everything beautiful in its time. It says in the Bible that we cannot add nor subtract what He has already planned for us. This gave me peace because like you, I asked why HIM and why US.

All the best,

Gail Monique

If you're seeing a cat in the middle of my post,I'm sorry about that and don't know how it got there. I'll fix it as soon as I get to a laptop. Thank you for your patience.

I so agree

Hello Susan and Ditas! Thank you for your comments and thank you for reading my blog post.

As I said in the last paragraph of my post, I still DON'T and NEVER WILL write my children's paper. I'v always encouraged them to write for themselves with some editing from me.

Though I have mentioned the buying term paper site in passing, I do not, in any way, endorse it. It is merely to say that there is such a website available.

To be clear, even if I know now that there is a site for that, and in fact, these sites are looking for writers, I did not go that route to earn money with my writing skills.

God bless you!

Hope this kind of disaster will not hit the country again. Many people are experiencing problems about family, foods and other needs. And those unexpectable events are just adding the problems.

Hi! Although I'm all for earning money using your writing skills, I don't think it would be good to offer them to students needing term papers. After all, the students would be graded by their teachers thinking that they wrote the papers themselves.

However, if students really need help with their papers, maybe they should write it themselves first. Then, ask a copywriter for help with wrong grammars, fragmented statements and the likes. But not get someone to write the paper.

The students will also be able to assess their own writing skills if they do it on their own, they will know their grades and after that, I'm sure that the teacher will tell them what their strong points are and their weaknesses.

This kind of service encourages students to take the easy way out.

Dear May,
Thank you for your comment. Honestly, this burden of grief is just too heavy for me to bear alone. This is mainly why I also take time to talk about it, to write about it. If I don't do this, I will most likely be overcome by it. In sharing the grief and sharing how God is helping me, I also have the comfort of the blogging community behind me. So thank you very much for sharing in my grief.
God bless you!

It is just a Habagat and not a storm but still it destroyed many properties and brought heavy rainfalls to the country that cause floods in different places. Hope this coming storm Helen would not be as strong as this.

I agree. Life is irreplacable unlike these properties. We can work hard and buy again. Hope this would be the last calamity that will make a huge damage to our country.

I'm sorry to hear that. We were victims of Ondoy, too. Our parents' home was flooded and they along with our two children were trapped on their second floor overnight. The water reached the ceiling of the first floor of their house. So much of their things were damaged, a lot more were saved. The damaged ones are now replaced. We have forgotten about our damaged things, but the relief that their lives were spared will always be with us.

I was an Ondoy victim, so I do realize the value of property. But then again, human life is of course more important than material things.

Michelle,
I am so very sorry for your loss. Words are pretty inadequate at times like this. Please know I have been and will continue to be praying for you and your family. Praying for God's peace and love to surround you and yours as you go through this difficult journey.

Diane,

So many people have said that to me - that I am strong. I honestly feel surprised that people would tell me this. For me, it is only by the grace of God that I can still stand. It is not my strength buy His.

Thank you for sharing your story with me. Sometimes, I get to thinking that I'm the only one who suffered this way, till I realize that this kind of sorrow did not only happen to me. It happened to you and countless other women as well. I am also comforted by the same thing that comforts you - that my children are HIS before they were even mine. And, no amount of my love for them would ever equal the love of God for each of them.

Thank you for your comfort.
