Renewing phones
I renewed my Sun line today so that I can get hold of at least a new phone (my plan is the group plan 899 so I'm entitled to two). Renewing was just as breeze as I just had to give a valid ID, sign some documents, choose the phones and voila, I have two new handsets. We were to choose from one handset from plan 600 and another from plan 350 so Tere immediately chose the Samsung J500 while I chose the Nokia 2680 slide (yep, both are slide-phones, perhaps the in-thing in phone designs these days). Now you maybe wondering why I'm choosing to blog about this when I rarely do blog and more often than not they relate to more serious matter. Well the reason simply being is the fact that out of the two phones that I got out of renewing with Sun for another 30 months, I ended up not owning any one of them.As obviously stated earlier the Samsung J500 went to Tere so by now you maybe wondering where the Nokia phone went. Well even before I renewed for the line I definitely knew where It will go through. Because as much as I'd love a new phone to replace my poor looking Motorola Razr Vi (plus add to the fact that I just got a new phone about three months ago to replace my p990 which got ran over by a speeding fortuner) I knew that there was one person who'd really appreciate it more. I think it has been two years as well since she got a new phone and I believe it was high time that I start paying off all the things she has given me from the very start.
And so as they both got home earlier I hid the phone in my hand, welcomed them and told my mom while suppressing my giddiness, "my, baka gusto nyo po ng bagong phone" my mom's eyes lit up. And even though she has a hard time understanding the new technologies of today and the intricacies of intelligent phones, it was very evident that she wanted it. Even exclaiming "madali lang ba gamitin to? yaan mo na aaralin ko na lang". She really wanted it. And then she told me "umaasa lang ako sa bibigay mo e, alam mo namang ayoko nang bumibili-bili pa". That's my mom, never wanting any more than necessary for herself just as she did so for the past 27 plus years that she has been taking care of me and kuya. Always us first. So I thoght that this gesture, even it may be small to some (or even worthless for others), can at least show my love to her.
And if by that small gesture I can feel her happiness, I myself am a happy son as well. For I know that it is through those small gestures I can repay the love they have given me all of my life.
Maybe its time you renewed as well, not necessarily including phone lines, but it should be a renewal of your love to your parents. Watchatink?
p.s.
Love you mom and dad!
