friends

i got this idea from Eauj Corpus's blog and RG's birthday blog. in both these blogs, they've expressed praise and gratitude to people who've helped build them up. i've thought about who these specific people were at this point in my life. i also would like to add the stuff i saw in their lives that i really admire, and  make me want to be like them when i grew up

here's my list, in no particular order:

Iris Torculas - strength of character, wisdom, and deep conviction.
Hazel Maranan - depth, passion, and security.
Eca Magno - toughness sheathed in velvet.
RG De Castro - persistence and desire to learn from good and bad situations.
Tristan Degollacion - a man of integrity, wisdom, and fearlessness.
Faith Andres - for having an admirable heart.
Eunice Domingo - the right balance of Martha and Mary: joy and enthusiasm in serving.

so, who are your builder-uppers?
