The next best thing to creating a life is to save lives.
It all started when my friend Hanna, invited me to host a thanksgiving party in the Madre de Amor Hospice Foundation in 2011.
The said event was done in honor of our passing the national board exams for nurses.
It was the first time we’ve done an event and the experience was very amazing and heartwarming.
Meeting the patients in the hospice made me realize how important life is, how their trials should be full of hope, how they need support, physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually and how to remain strong even in the tough times.
At first I thought that this was just going to be a once in a lifetime event for me, but then I realized that this should be a tradition of giving- back, making people happy and sharing my blessings in life.
It was really indeed life-changing as we just finished our 5th year celebration this November 6, 2015. Even though I was abroad, I would like to thank my family and friends in making this possible.
I hope that those who will read this will also be encouraged to make other people happy, to serve as an instrument of God for the needy and to change the world in little ways that they can.
