goodbye mike...

a friend had just passed away last saturday, leaving this world too early and in terrible pain.

my friend mike, is one of my closest since my younger years. we grew together, share jokes and games together...tumbang preso, patintero, agawang base, name it, we play almost all the games the children would love to do during our early years...we...our friends, boy, london, erick, ediboy, would go out as early as 7 am on the streets, start our day playing and would end by dinner time. As if we could not continue playing the next day. we swim in floods during rainy season, we catch dragonflies during summer days and we even play 'gera-gerahan' with some baby rockets during new years eve. those were the days. the happy part of life. where we dint even bother eating lunch, dinner or taking a bath in a very humid day of play in the streets.

last saturday, mike was killed in a vehicular accident, he was plowed 5 meters away from where he was standing. the suspect, a-22 yr old wreck less drunk kid, enjoying his youth with carelessness...not thinking of consequences of his action, leaving a family, a pregnant wife and a very innocent son, mike passed away a few minutes after midnight.

its too hard for us, his family and friends to accept his fate.

but one thing is for sure... we know for a fact that indeed he has a good heart, mike now rests in the hands of our creator. leaving a grieving heart, leaving us all with hope of accepting what had happend to him should never be forgotten and opening our minds with what would possibly make us all remember him for his generous smile he often give us...his friends...his hopes and his simple life with big aspirations and desire of happiness.
