Your gratitude is always the golden thread running through every day, Stella—good days & the hard ones. May it continue to weave in and out keeping you aware of the love that surrounds you all. 💛💛💛
This is so beautiful Marla. Marica and your family are so very loved. Wish I could physically be there with all of you to help you out. Sending you all so much love!!
What a wonder to read something so beautiful! Clearly there is a spirit in you to carry inspiration to others, even when you face storm on storm. Sending my prayers.
Stella, this really touched me because I've been where you are with my mom in 2018, with my dear friend in 2022 and then with my brother in 2023. You sharing this with all of us allows us to better appreciate and be in the flow with humanity... so, I think that's malasakit. I hope your weeks ahead bring ease.
So much you had to go through, Juliette. Hugs to you as well. Taking it one day at a time— that’s how it is right now. My sister is still fragile and we pray she stabilizes soon.
That was beautiful and Inspirational Ate Marla. Thank you for sharing. Ate Marika has a pure genuine kind soul that will always be in my heart. We are reminded that at this difficult times, family is all that matters. Sending my prayers and malasakit to the Kakaw family. 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
Praying for your Ate, and for your whole family, Stella. Thank you for sharing the spirit of gratitude and malasakit through this piece! Oh, it’s so poignant to meet another person in the cancer caregivers club 🥺
Thank you for writing and sharing all this with us. I really don't feel as alone anymore with all the grief I have because of what happened in our family. That might sounds strange. I mean it very lovely. Unfortunately the loved ones are leaving this planet. It is just the way it is. And it is not easy at all. I am very grateful for what I have and I am very grateful for your Sundays with Stella. Thank you so much for sharing this!!!
Thank you, Sabina. I'm glad you feel less alone as I have. This tiny space to share my writing and my art helps bring some light into the world as the same time, heal my soul and process the loss.
