Theron:
Hello, Ava!
I'm so happyyyy right now 😭
12:49 AM
Ava:
hello
slr, tinapos ko lang activities
buti naman nag-enjoy ka
Theron:
So muchhhh
Kung alam mo lang kung gaano kasaya 'yong heart ko ngayon 🥹🥹
Thank you so much, Ava!
Ava:
wala 'yon
masaya ako kasi masaya ka
akala ko nga hindi ko ma-e-enjoy e
pero masaya naman pala
ang ganda ng ngiti mo kanina
para ka talagang bata
Theron:
: ))
Ava:
may gusto pala akong itanong
Theron:
suree, ava
Ava:
bakit nga pala may "plant a tree" sa bucket list mo?
i mean don't get me wrong ah
pero ang uncommon kasi na makakita ng ganon sa mga bucket list
so, what’s the reason behind it?
Theron:
Oh
Gets ko hehehehe
Actually, I’ve been thinking a lot about it lately. It’s not just about the tree itself, but more about what it represents.
Ava:
okay?
what do you mean?
Theron:
Well, I want to be remembered in some way, even after I’m gone.
Planting a tree seems like a meaningful way to do that. It’s something that will grow and live long after I’m not around.
Ava:
grabe para namang mamamatay ka na sa sinasabi mo
Theron:
No one knows what will happen tomorrow.
Ava:
ang seryoso mo ah
anyway
that’s really thoughtful. It’s like you’re leaving a part of yourself behind for future generations.
Theron:
Exactly
It’s a way to contribute something positive to the world that will last and maybe even make a difference in the environment
And knowing that the tree will be out there, growing and thriving, gives me a sense of peace. It’s like a part of me will always be part of the world.
Ava:
ang ganda ng reason behind it ah
it’s not just about being remembered, but also about making a lasting, positive impact.
Theron:
Yeah
It’s my way of saying, “I was here, and I cared.”
Ava:
that’s really meaningful. but, can i ask why do you want to be remembered in the first place?
Theron:
I guess it’s because I want my life to have mattered. I want to know that my presence made a difference, however small.
Kasi diba lumaki ako na hindi nakakalabas ng bahay. Kaya ayun gusto kong kahit 'yong tree lang na tinanim natin, malaya siya sa labas. Hindi lang nakakulong.
Ava:
i can understand that. It’s natural to want to leave a mark. do you think it’s about proving something to yourself or to others?
Theron:
Maybe a bit of both.
On one hand, it’s about feeling like I’ve contributed something worthwhile. On the other hand, I think it’s also about having some sort of acknowledgment that I existed and made a positive impact.
Ava:
it sounds like you’re seeking a sense of purpose and fulfillment.
planting a tree is a beautiful way to achieve that, because it benefits the environment and future generations.
Theron:
Right hahahaha
It’s a tangible way to feel that my life has had a positive effect. It’s not just about being remembered for the sake of being remembered, but for having done something meaningful.
Ava:
i get it. and in a way, this tree will also tell others that you cared about the world and wanted to make it a better place.
Theron:
Yes, that’s the hope. Even if I’m not around to see it, I’ll know that I did something good.
So, thank you for being with me.
: ))
