Elderly people easily cry especially during Special Events like Christmas and New Year . . .

Today is December 24, time line in Malaybalay City, Mindanao Philippines, by now it is 9:56 according to our computer. This elderly blogger prepared breakfast and was set on eating with gusto because the viand is a Christmas treat - country bacon by Slers and Purefoods tender and juicy, cocktail size. She was savoring every piece when her beloved Michael 2, the family dog, now you know why we have chosen Michael as the name of the family pet . . . sat hungrily hoping he would be given his share. As always, Michael, with his stance so pitiful and lovable to look at, had his way so pieces of bacon "down M's drain" - it is Christmas after all. The Parasat cable tv was set, channel 37, ESPN, and my luck it was Michael Jordan's 1998 sixth MVP title and Chicago Bulls" 6th win.

As the game showed the wonder of basketball when Michael was the one you are looking at, the delicious food received less of this blogger's attention as the remaining 5 minutes had the Utah Jazz, 85 points and Chicago Bulls, 86 courtesy of Jordan's miracle shots as ever. Then, the teams played and no one made the shot then finally Jazz got the ball but the player did not shoot until the last second and the Bulls won! Scottie Pipen cried; Michael Jordan cried, I cried . . .

Jordan always makes me cry when he does his best and wins! Replays are always worth it when you watch a great game. Elderly people like us, cry harder because we will never have a chance to see another player like Michael Jordan who makes me watch his game no matter the time. Christmas and New Year holidays should have replays like this and the special events are worth our tears. Now, this blogger has lost her appetite because her emotions bring her back once again to those NBA seasons she never view until Michael Jordan is on. This elderly loves you Michael Jordan!  Where are you and what are you doing? To your fans, you are our special event and when it happens life becomes very colorful. Thanks ESPN! 


Elderly people, like Malaybalayan, do cry easily especially during special events like Christmas and New Year.
