Nanay

Nanay - how we call the Filipina mother, grandmother, great grandmother. She never really looks that old, never looks her age. Despite being a widow, the kids being all grown up, the distance from her first and only grandchild, the empty seat with pink cushions where her loved ones used to keep her company, she remains beautiful, calm, serene, kind and loving...

    @ Jenny
    Thank you for your wonderful comment. Btw, the story is true and the woman is the mother of a good friend who is now based in UK.
