When in Manila: Papal Visit 011815


My mom woke me up at around 12a.m to prepare. We walked Welcome Rotando all the way to UST with the hope that we will be one of the few people that will go extra early just to see Lolo Kiko. But, were wrong...



A lot of people did go all-nighter around the four corners of UST. I do have regrets of not writing this last weekend while the memories are still fresh but I couldn't do it since i'm so tired after this. 

What I can only remember is that all the pain & effort have all paid-off once I've seen the glimpse of Lolo Kiko. I was struck for while by the pureness of his smile. Pardon me if this sounds idolatry, but there's no need to explain why does a lot of people loves Lolo Kiko - because his an epitome of good natured Human Being, just like us. Someone we could look-up to not because his the Pope but because he is man guided by his own principle that is under the rule of God. His thoughts are filled with righteousness yet under the probation of God. 



Thank you so much for Lolo Kiko for giving time to visit us! :-)
