MY NANAY’S HOME
Title

If you were to ask me what’s my favourite place to visit, I may ponder for just a long time before speaking. It
might be the place I always visit, my nanay's house. A home far away from the glare of city lights, pollution, and
crowds. You may ask "Why?”. But the moment I remember everything in that place, I could smile, saying “It’s my
favorite place”.

I grew up as a teen surrounded by a lot of people and friends. I always hang out with my friends at school,
did activities together, and had a lot of fun. I tried to follow what they do, being influenced by their actions, habits
and character. They’ve been my comfort since that time. But I never thought in my life that I have become that kind
of person. Until, I realized I’ve becoming as worse as I could be. I am not changing and growing anymore. It feels like
life is a waste of time, trying to please others and get satisfied with it. It was indeed a bad life.

Until such time, never been in my life that I would experience a life-changing encounter. COVID-19 hits me
and anything in the world. There, God met me. So, maybe you’re thinking what’s the connect of my favourite place
in the story?

When I got to know God, I met people in my life that led me more to Him. That kind of people is an
indication that I am in the right place to where I am supposed to be. I have a friend who’s close to me, I call her
nanay. But I’m not just the only one who’s calling her that way but most of my close friends, call her the same.
Throughout the COVID-19, she has been my accountability partner where I can share and talk to. We get to know
each other and share our devotionals and prayers in life. Until, we built a fellowship with others. The fellowship we
started doesn’t just stop at us, but we began to expand and have fellowship with others as well and get to know
them. I called them my second home.

One day, my nanay had invited us to go to her house. It was a great timing for me because I was also
planning to visit too. I just brought the essentials and my little clothes to stay there. We go together with my so-
called siblings; actually, I was the youngest by age. We visited her house most of the time to gather together.

In that day, the house was filled with excitement. The guitar playing brightens the mood, the sound of
chopped ingredients hypes up the unity of each other while cooking, the funny chuckles in the middle of chats, the
sound of utensils being arranged at the table tickling and everything else was really a memorable moment in my life.
As is customary, we always eat supper happily. Day by day, we celebrate each other and building each other up. It
was not suffocating but a life-breathing.

Our nanay constantly showed us with affection, compassion, and tenderness. There, it somehow changed
the way I’m living, act and influence other people. I never imagined I get to know a community that helped my grow
on my personal journey. It was not just a life-changing place or community but a life-changing fellowship.

That place where I called "Home" was the place I always want to returned to. That place was a great
reminder for me that indeed, God is a faithful God who leads us to the right people at right place and in the right
time.
