I just got from a surreal beach trip yesterday and I still managed to go to mass at 8pm. I was so tired and sleepy but it was Sunday and I can't afford to miss Fr. Robleza's homily.. and of course, give thanks to Him 'coz we had so much fun and got home safely.
Fr. Robleza started a story when he went in Italy alone. He shared how lonely it was but good thing there were Filipinos in the neighborhood. Though there were pinoys, there were times when he felt so lonely from the place where he stayed. After some time he went back to the Philippines. He said to himself that whenever he has visitors and stayed in his house, he promised to spare his time to entertain them. As much as possible, let them feel that they are very welcome and ensure that they'll have fun staying in your place. He didn't want his visitors to experience the loneliness he felt from his Italy vacation.
Then, he explained yesterday gospel. Sinasabi na kung may mga problema, magpasalamat ka. Binibigyan ka ng Diyos ng problema para maramdaman at ipinapaunawa sa'yo ang mga taong nakakaranas din ng mga problema. Kung wala kang problema, d'ba masaya at malakas ka. Kung meron naman, na-aappreciate mo ang ibang tao. Meron kang problema pero you'll find happiness with the people you love.. a loved one, your friends, family... :)
Kung wala kang problema, ihahantulad ka sa isang ampalaya.
Kung meron naman, ihahantulad ka naman sa isang pinakbet. Maraming kasamang gulay tulad ng sitaw, kalabasa, talong.. Maraming sahog, makulay ang buhay!
Pero hindi ba't mas masaya kung ikaw ay isang masayang ampalaya na kasama sa sangkap ng pinakbet? :)
