Ruby Tuesday: Love This Superloaded Seniors' Day!


This is awesome day for seniors. This is the day seniors feel important and acknowledged. We may be on our sunset trip but the wisdom and experiences we carried in our being are so immense, if only society could unlock and share our vast wealth of experiences, & knowledge, molded by years of interactions of trial & errors, hits and misses during our active years.

We simply cannot and should not be ignored just because we are old. Lets take for example the simple role of passing traditions and values. Parents due to the stress of making a living to feed their families and offer some luxuries, have barely a time to teach what they learn from their parents. They are too saddled with the pressure of providing the best of things sometimes forgetting the essentials like GMC and real values these kids need to possess so important to become good adults. 

So the Grandpas who've got all the time in the world and who are retired, should take the role of a passer like a good  team player. Those things like values, beliefs and even superstitions need to be  passed on to excite them. I remember my eyes would twinkle listening to stories then by my uncles and grandpas;

Now back to today being seniors' day, as mandated by law, we are free in all movie houses. I love this day as I get to go out to the malls and indulge in my fave things like coffee, good conversations with oldie friends aside from the good movies. I kinda laugh to myself inside the movies seeing other seniors falling asleep and snoring instead lol. Probably, the movies were boring or they succumbed to drowsiness as most oldies are prone to. Maybe i too will be like them when i get so old like into the 90's.

So i bestow upon myself this role to my grankids esp Maryam & Zainab who are gowing fast in American  culture. I dont want them to lose the Filipino in them! I wish when they grow up they'd embrace the Pinoy heart and mind. But looks like they do already!

Well, here are some pics of the 3. Kenshin juz today, Maryam & Zainab from 2012.









Till next post😉😊😍
