By Charie Gemao It was year 2013 that I joined Camp Calye. Since then, my life was never been the same.
Like any other youth I was challenged by the world at an early age. Thus, I didn’t have a colorful childhood. As I grow into a fine lady, all that I wanted is a company of friends who will love me despite of my shortcomings and brokenness. I guess, we all want it and we all yearn for it – the sense of belongingness. And true enough, I gained it. In fact, I gained more than friends – but a family. I used to label myself as a “product of a broken family” but now I don’t. For God has made me whole and He gave me an extended family – a spiritual one, whom I know will not give up on me as much as I don’t give up on life. And by the way, my youth leaders before who encourage me to join the Camp are now my spiritual parents. I don’t call them mommy or daddy, but with all my heart I can feel that they love and treat me as their own daughter. PS. YUNG IBABAYAD MO SA CAMP, MAY SUKLI PA – mga kaibigan na di maglalaon ay iyo ring magiging pamilya na uunawa sa mga pagkakamali’t pagkukulang mo, maniniwala sa mga pangarap mo at magmamahal ng buong buo sa’yo!
