My Repertoire For 2025 New Year Party

Every start of the year, our Family Circle celebrates the New Year...the venue has two choices :
In my Brother's House with his Scuba Divers Guests
Or at my Sister's Resort with her Hotel Guests...

In the past two years I never attended due to my excruciating Neuralgia Nerve Damage at my left waist area due to Shingles ..the pain is still going on right now ..

Two days ago my siblings visited.me and they wish to have me around to celebrate the New Year Party...with these words :
" Our regular guests are here again and they all said they love to hear your voice singing to them and they even said we love to hear Pilipino Songs."
My daughter and my husband agreed for me to disregard the pain that has been keeping me for almost three years to always stay in the room or at the veranda. They both wanted me to circulate again with people and enjoy life. Knowing that I love singing they all believe that it's time for me to move on with life...oh... including the pain..

They told me that there are two live bands...the male and female group so I need only to sing Three Songs and even just one Song as these guests wanted to see me again too..

I said " YES " to their delight. My sister offered a very nice Evening Dress which she bought as my Gift and I love the design of this sleeveless A Line long black dress . My brother's wife gave me a pearl necklace and dangling earrings to match with it. That was settled.

When they left, my daughter suggested that I sing the songs of Kuh Ledesma, my favorite Filipina Singer.
I agreed and told her.. If I need to sing only one song as I cannot bear the pain then I choose " Paano Kita Mapapasalamatan " meaning " How Can I Thank You ? "

" That's a very nice Song "
My husband and our daughter commented .
" Yes...it is..and I will prepare another Pilipino song by Kuh Ledesma, with a title " DITO BA ? " Meaning , Is It Here ?
and the favorite Cebuano Song of Papa
" MATUD NILA "..
My reply to them.

" Nice Choice Ma " our daughter said.

I added " I will not let the Band accompany.me. I sing with my guitar to keep me sitting as I don't think I can stand that long ".
" Wise decision " my husband said.

So , here I am still in pain and also looking forward to meet those familiar faces who watched and heard me singing in the past years for some special Occasions of the Family Circle..

I believe I can make it, of course, with GOD' s Help .

Thank You LORD for Everything with a Wish and A Prayer that may the New Year brings me a Complete Healing in
JESUS NAME . AMEN.
