Today is a special day to honor and pay tribute to the elderly members of the close-knit filipino family. Children are reared to respect their parents and that means taking care of them when they grow old that's why there's not that many home for the aged in the Philippines. I just grow up without knowing my grandparents on both sides. They're long gone and already settled in heaven even before i was born.
My children are lucky because their grandparents on both sides took care of them before while i'm away for work. I'm now a grandmother myself and hopefully my children will take care of me and dirk when we grow old. It's a nice feeling when we grannies are cared for, valued, respected and given importance all days of the year.
