Hi... I�m Maria to most of you - but �Tinapay� , �Manang�, �Dir� & �Mahal� to my closest friends...
Let�s start with me first ... 36 years of my life has come and gone ...
My life has changed because of you my dearest friends ...
I gained & lost friends along the way ... found some new ones too...
I'm just like any other - I had my ups and downs ... laughters & tears ...
Loved and being unloved... missing & being missed ...
And with these I have known my real friends...
If I have to choose my life all over again, I wouldn't do it any other way ..
Being surrounded by people I love is the most wonderful thing that one can ask for ...
Of course you guys are not the only friends that I have but you are the ones who have
a special place in my heart for you have loved me the same.


To my dearest friends with love...
This is the only way I know how to thank you ...

To �Hilaw� my dearest friend our path crossed a few years back ... (walang iyakan ha!)
Seeing you at first made me think you're a snob...
Although looking thru your eyes I can see the truthfulness & love of friendship you have for me ...
We have shared a lot and went thru more than we can handle but we did get over it all...
Lot's of times you have given me the courage to go on ...
And when I've asked you If I needed to change you said no and just be myself ...
My friend 'til the end you're in my heart always -
and I love you for being there to lend your shoulder to cry on or laugh with ...
And for you I�m still waiting when you can say the word ....... you know what I meant...
This one is for you an - excerpt from your favorite song ...
�For all those times you stood by me, for all the truth you made me see,
for all the joy you brought in to my life, For all the wrong that you made right.�


To my �Dir� thru "Hilaw" I found you ...
Counting backwards 3 years ago we met and never to see each other again until recently ...
We had evolved in two different worlds me not knowing what I�ve missed - your friendship,
You're a light on one's life, may we continue to be friends for as long as forever...
As I�ve told you once before, whenever you need a friend call me, page me , wake me anytime.
�Aling Delias� comes in my mind whenever I�m hungry...

To my �Swee-tik�, again with "Hilaw's" doing I found you. Even though we don't talk as much,
I want you to know that you have me as a friend and I'm here for you...
Always missing our late night talk ... knowing that whenever I need to talk you will
always be on the other end of my phone...
I treasure your friendship, my friend... remember our private joke - $46.00 + interest.

Sorry guys, you're stuck with me and there's no way you can get rid of me ...
unless you use the "Kick User" button ...

I'm very lucky to have you guys in my life ...
Thanks to AT&T - the best of 3 way friendship ...

This is from one of my favorite song -
�If we ever lose each other somewhere in the dark, promise me you�ll remember how good we are�.

And last but not least my husband of 20 years - how do I thank someone like you ...

Maria @>-->---                            and to all the Other Guys out there - Thank you :-)
