Goodbye, Galileo Golez Padero

Goodbye, Galileo Golez Padero

My cousin Ben catnaps at his dad’s wake.

“You know, the ancient Egyptians had a beautiful belief about death. When their souls got to the entrance to heaven, the guards asked two questions. Their answers determined whether they were able to enter or not.

‘Have you found joy in your life?’

‘Has your life brought joy to others?'”

– Morgan Freeman (The Bucket List, 2007 film)

Goodbye, Galileo Golez Padero

A loving farewell to my dad’s only brother.
