"Morning serenade " How are you readers? It's Monday, a special day to all of us because we're alive and kicking,a blessing to live this day. We started our morning so early today, because we have to do a serenade a man that is special to us. Not just for me, but for everyone in this place where we live today.
This picture which I captured at 4:06 am as we walk walk early going to our friends house. We just walk going there, instead of riding motorcycle because it's a surprise serenade. As you can see it's still dark while we are walking, it was a cold morning. Supposed to be when there is a serenade, the most valuable instrument that we can have is a guitar, but we don't have a guitarist at this time. So, our colleagues bring a Bluetooth speaker, and we sang through watching my friends cellphone.
Lack of instrumentalist is not a hindrance anymore when you want to serenade someone because we can use Bluetooth keyboard as a replacement.
We don't have any practice before this day happens, but, I guess everything is just fine, because the celebrant wake up when he hears our voice.
And because it's a surprise, my friends have intentionally bring foods, like cake, lechon manok, banana cake and many more. More than those material things that we have eaten, we really appreciate on how did this husband and wife loved each other so much. And personally, I admired both of them, when it comes to being a couple, on how they showed respect, maturity, and love for their children with their way of discipline. Maybe there is no perfect family at all, but I can say, that they are a role model family. A wife message to her husband (celebrant) For a long time of being married, there was never a time in her life, that her husband has spoke to him badly. Sana all! Heeheeh, I was become envious on that part, because I always experienced being nag and loud voice of speaking. But, they were different, they are both soft spoken people. The wife was teary eyed while she was giving her message to her husband. She felt being loved by him and her children. That everytime there is a problem in the family, her husband shows maturity in handling it. When she is in panic, her husband was relax, when she is worried, her husband say, have faith. Not just me, but everyone around here, was blessed by his life, because he is a man who humbly lived everyday. Having a matured spouse is a great blessing in life, despite of any circumstances they both stand together. It's a balance life, when one is weak, the other is strong, when one is lonely, the other can comfort. Her wife's message ends with a hug, and word of love, which is I love you. Our morning serenade end with a prayer and eating. There are some sweet food and breakfast as well, because her wife cooked early, so we don't have to cooked our food when we got home. Have you tried "harana", birthday serenade since you were young? Maybe you don't experience it already, while me, I guess I have tried it for once only because when I grow up, my parents have forgot to serenade me, hehhe. The most part that I like is the speaking moment of celebrant and wishes from family and friends I have a toothache today because of sweets and the lechon chicken is tough, when I bite it. My kids have come with us too because they don't want to be left alone at home. We go home too full from eating, we didn't eat our breakfast at home because we already finished in the celebrant's house. Back to serenade topic, my favorite song for harana, is, "Pagising sa Umaga",which we sang this morning. Everything that we give heartily to someone who is in a special day is precious, either a greetings, material things, or a special serenade will do.
Flowers for me, heheh, I smile when I see this in the roadside while we're going home. I like it π That's it for today's blog, a good day to all.
