Introducing who @manvillar
I was born in a big family of 11 children. I was the 7th child and my birthday is December 7th. Due to the size of our family, my siblings and i did not have the opportunity to blow candles on cakes during our birthdays.
The usual ritual was: the celebrant would go to attend the church accompanied by our elder sister, go home and eat the sphagetti that my Dad would cook. All of us share the feast!
During meal time, all 11 siblings have to be on time on the table. To be late risk oneself of losing ones share.
I was called Toothpick (Toots in short) because i was small and very thin then. But i have my older brother, Albert, who always protect me from the bullying of street kids.
We don't have much , but looking back, we are happy. We make our own toys from used tin cans and bottle tops. We play in the streets, specially during fullmoon! My brother Albert is our leader.
We studied hard to maintain our scholarships, otherwise my parents can't afford to send us to shool. We don't have encyclopedia then but we have our father who we call the "walking encyclopedia".
My Dad got sick and died at a time when were all still young. My mother struggled to raise all 11 of us.
Yes it was a hard life but some how it built in us a character of persevirance and greatfulness , now that all my siblings are properly situated. Most of them at present leave in U.S.A. Japan and Spain.
And as far as myself, i am happy and contented too, living a simple life. I'm a licensed Real Estate Professional. I love my motorbike, I'm fond of gadgets, cameras (Nikon) and love the internet. I've been into photography since my teen life. I love writing blogs and a member of E-zine too. I do copywriting for various clients. I also been practicing and teaching Yoga for more than 25 years.
