this photo was taken about a week before my lola died. tomorrow is the last day of her first death anniversary novena but i couldn’t be there.

she was a wonderful grandmother, my lola. she was a teacher, but she taught far beyond the corners of her small classroom and her legacy will always be remembered.

funny how fast time flies without us noticing it. i guess it’s best to enjoy every moment that we’re living because tomorrow holds no guarantees. my grandmother may have been given 97 lucid years but who knows how much time we got?
