THANK YOU LETTER TO THE CAREBELLES

by Marissa Nerida

To my everdearest  CAREBELLES, 
 
What can I say to “beautiful” people like each and everyone of YOU???  I can express my thanks over and over again, yet, I know in my heart, it is not enough to really show you how grateful, thankful and BLESSED I am for having the chance to have met you, to have known you and the very best of all,  to be part of my life.  You may believe it or not, but, with all sincerity and honesty, I can say, with God’s guiding light, YOU ARE ONE OF THE OBVIOUS REASONS WHY I AM STILL AROUND!!!!!  

You may not realize it, so I want you to know, that since you came, my life went 360 degrees turn around.  YOU MAKE ME SMILE!  YOU MAKE ME HAPPY!  YOU MAKE ME CRY!  YOU BEAR WITH MY “CRAZINESS”!  YOU COMFORT ME IN TIMES OF TRIALS!  YOU ADVICE ME!  AND TO TOP IT ALL, DESPITE OF YOUR OWN PERSONAL NEEDS, YOU HELP ME A GREAT DEAL IN SO MANY AND DIFFERENT WAYS!  Now, you see why I said, you are one obvious reason, why I am still around? 

A thousand pages of a thick book is not even enough to write the many reasons why I would like to thank each and everyone of YOU.  I have so many memorable moments to bring with me in my next life.  The weekend respites we had in Anilao, Batangas, the weekly support group meetings, the various Carewell events, the Correctional Outreach program, and the many other moments we shared together.  To date, the greatest and most memorable event is when you conceptualized and facilitated the “WEDDING OF THE YEAR” (hehehe!  Yabang ko no? hehehe) of Danny and me.  It was the best thing that ever happened to Danny and me after so many years of separation.  You made “MAGIC”!!! 

 My dearest sisters…..MARAMING MARAMING SALAMAT SA LAHAT LAHAT NA IBINIGAY NINYONG TULONG AT TUNAY NA PAGMAMAHAL SA AKIN.   No amount of riches could ever equal my sincerest gratitude to all of you.  My only way to repay all your kindness are through my daily PRAYERS for YOU and your respective families till my last breath.   From the deepest part of my heart, “ I  L O V E   Y O U   D E A R L Y &  T H A N K   Y O U   S O   V E R Y   M U C H”!!!!!
