50 years of LOVE



50 years of marriage. 50 years of ups and downs 50 years of trials and success 50 years of LOVE

Their relationship is not perfect, but they were able to stand through time.
A true picture of through thick or thin.
For richer or for poorer, "til death do they part"

My grandparents has no permanent jobs. My grandfather is a gambler, who plays "sabong" a lot. We even tease him that the cock fight arena is his school. At the end of the game, if he wins the money will be used to buy food for his family. My grandmother is simple housewife, who wasn't able to graduate even elementary, selling "kakanins" to help his husband earn a living. With a very simple life that they have they were able to produce 6 Professionals. All of their siblings was able to earn a degree. According to them, they don't want their children's lives be as miserable as they used to have, that's why in any way they can they strive to bring all their children to college.

According to them, the only thing that they can give to their children is knowledge that's why they did their best to bring all 6 of them to college. Now all of them are professionals, working and successful. Not to mention, all of them were studying full time and was never been working students. All of them have dreams and for them to reach their dreams. They strive to get scholarships and grants, just for them to finish college.

May my grandparents be an inspiration to all men who are in the so called 3rd/4th level of the society. Let's all strive our best for success and encourage every child to learn and study.
