Each time September comes
There is an air of celebration
In my life as it becomes
A new transformation
Great events of my life
happened during this time
like my first baby cry
wrapped in my mother's embrace
T'was September too
when once I got to live
a life apart and took
the way of a celibate
One September afternoon
and the rains where heavy
I got my head anointed
as a herald of the Good News!
On the same September day
while still early morning
I met in person my wife
at Iloilo airport in Cabatuan
This year is a very special one
September comes again
and what a joy to celebrate
my birthday with my wife!
My core belief in life
is that life is meant
to be lived to the fullest
and share it with the one I love
The best thing in life
is the capacity to make
that choice and the freedom
to take full responsibility
God is love
and when two people
love each other
they too build God's Kingdom!
Being a witness
of God's love
can also be
living a life of love intensely!
Who can fathom
or uncover
God beautiful plan
in each one's life?
One can only marvel
and be awe struck
when plunged into a reality
of life's surprises in God's design!
And out of the ravages
of history and time
another story of love
is written and lived by!
