.: Sunday Afternoon

Title*:	Sunday Afternoon
Article*:	Sunday relax time. A year ago this time, I couldn't imagine myself not going crazy if Elaine left me. Now I see her in my mind as an angel watching over me, basking under the gift of godly love she and others have been blessed with by the kindness and love of our Lord God. As the first year anniversary of her death on November 18 nears, I feel more soft inside and give up the anger that gripped my heart because of the hardships Elaine and I went through in her last three years with me. I hope I have been forgiven by those I offended, as I forgive also those who did not understand me. Some crucial decisions about my life I also need to make in the coming couple of weeks. I have been blessed by God with the experience of knowing how each responds to other people's needs and their own needs. I have experienced being sleepless again for nights on end thinking about a certain special person that Elaine said could take her place if she left me in this mortal life. I have enjoyed the love and care of another special person who is wonderfully talented and has a golden heart borne out of her warrior genes she inherited from her Jakar ancestry in the far-away island of Sulu. More importantly, I have seen again that I can be the same man I was before extreme sadness from Elaine's illness and her subsequent death ate up my soul. Thanks to my family, close friends and these two wonderful young ladies, I experienced the love I missed from Elaine's demise. I miss her so much, but I am thankful she now resides with our Lord up there. On this wonderfully laid back Sunday afternoon, I thank our Lord Jehovah for blessing me with this life and the love of everyone in my life. Notwithstanding the anger and bitterness I have experienced and the same feelings I aroused from those I offended, I am wonderfully thankful for that feeling of love. It truly is a God's gift, and I am thankful my parents Vicente and Isabel Capco and my grandparents Arsenio and Marcela Capco showered me with lots of love from the day God gave me to them. Thanks, Nay.
