Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

I visited my aunt in March 2008. Sadly not in her best condition, I came because she was very ill and recovering from a stroke. However, I tried to combat my anxiety between hospital visits, with positive thinking.

Today was another rainy day; while my cousin Jazz and I were wandering around London. My anxiety was even greater, due to the fact that the weather was not cooperating with us. I wanted to go back to New York. But I couldn't leave my aunt in the hospital bed. She needs me now, and the rest of her neices and nephews whom she have called her own children.

The Westminister Abbey, The Big Ben, and the Tower of London represents as a historic monument of United Kingdom. But what captured me the most is the monumental big heart of my aunt Meding. All her life, she have given her heart and soul to her neices and nephews. She was our tower, our bread of life during our college years.

My aunt never had children of her own. We, her nieces and nephews are her kids. She adopted us all, and helped us from her earning. Now, most of us have college degrees living in different part of the world. I am ever greatful for her kindness and loving nature.

To my aunt Meding you are the epiphany of our vision and mission of our lives. There are people around us who needs a helping hand. You have showed me what it means to be selfless, and helped those who are less fortunate.

I honor you and thank you for your self-denial so others might have a better lives. You are a testament that "it is better to give than to recieve." Thank you. Through you; I will try to walk and spread the fragrance of the spirit of goodness, and kindness wherever God send me.
