Hari ini Jumat, delapan april, dua ribu sebelas

Today is a very special day because it is my mother's birthday. I don't miss her that much because I just saw and talked with her via YM last week, but I really wanted to greet her today. However because my schedule would not allow it, I was not able to. I had a prior invitation for the Filcomin, Filipino Catholic prayer group based here in Surabaya. Fortunately, they were also celebrating the birthday of Ms. Lilian today. I was able to include my mom's intention during the prayer meeting and celebrate a birthday party at the same time. Syukur kepada Allah!
