The place
was so quiet and full of serenity. The sun was shining bright in midday. A cry
was heard so loud. A girl was born. She weighed 6.8 pounds. Her height was 19
inches. She had beautiful black eyes and angelic face. Mother and father were
so delighted to see their pretty daughter.
They were
debating as what to name their daughter. Dad suggested to name her Rhay, but
mother had a second thought. She also
had a name in mind which was Maggie. Dad
suggested to put the names together. That was such a good idea mom said.
Therefore, they came up to an agreement that since both liked
the names they had, so why not just combined the two names together. The girl was
named Rhay Maggie.
Rhay grew up
to be kind and obedient child. Her parents taught her good values and most of
all the faith to the Lord. Rhay had so much love to the Lord. After she helped
her parents in the farm, she made time to run to the church to attend mass.
When she was
18 years old, she lost both of her parents. She was despondent of her lost. She
did not know what to do as she was totally lost. She felt so alone. How can she
support herself? Who can she confide her problems? She was so close to her
parents.
At first, she
asked God, why He took her precious family. She blamed God for everything. She
was on a brink of giving up her faith. Because she was so overwhelmed that she
could not breath. That very moment she asked the Lord’s forgiveness. She
realized that God was bigger than her problems. She remembered that her parents
taught her to be strong in the midst of trials.
She pursued
going to school in college. During the day she worked in the farm and at night
she took classes. Her life was hectic, but she was determined. She managed to
work and study until she finished school. She was humbled and happy that
through the years of focusing in school and supporting herself independently,
she was able to get a diploma.
She taught in
school. She shared to students the experiences she had. She was hopping that
through telling them her stories that they will learn to never give up. And
that there was reward of having perseverance amid challenges. Doing good deeds in
the middle of crisis were worth remembering.
