Two Occasions In A Day

There were two occasions had happened yesterday. The first one was sad. We had to attend Uncle Ned's burial. He was a friend here in Omaha. He was so nice to everybody. In every event before, He was always there. He was one of the officers in the Filipino-American Organization. We found out that He had a lung cancer when we had our first Friday of the month mass. He was telling us how he'd been through from being admitted to the hospital and how he had his radiation went. We could hear how bad his cough was & saw his skin being affected on his illness. Couple weeks after, my aunt left a voice message on my phone saying the Uncle Ned passed away. It was really sad. But the good thing is, He wouldn't suffer anymore & God took away his pain shorter. The gospel of the mass yesterday was so nice. It was about him how He served God all his life. He even had the chance to have the blessing for the sickly people. For me, He is such a lucky guy that He had been prepared on his death. He knew that his death would come soon & he had been preparing himself. I know that He is in heaven and been watching His loved ones on earth. May You rest in peace Uncle Ned.
The second occasion that I had was our 4th year wedding anniversary. Nothing fancy happened. We just went out to watch a movie & dined out after. We made a plan that we wouldn't give any present for each other since we had it in advance and we have to save for our coming trip. Hubby had to work since his co-worker still on vacation. Before hubby went home, I took my friend to our house to get those old clothes from me instead of giving it away to Goodwill. After awhile, I took her to the mall and bought her some stuff. She was having a good time and we're hoping to do it again next time.
