A FATHER BY CHANCE

I am a 40'sh old father by chance... I have two wonderful children named Alyanna Mari 11 and Alfel John 6 who are my brother's children. I have been taking care of this God's gift since they were little for my brother and sister in law though both working earn income that does not suffice to convenience the kids.
However... I being single and gay took it upon myself to help my brother in bringing up his children in a very comfortable way so as not to let them experience the poverty we knew back in the days when we were kids.
Unfortunately my brother pass-away quite early and my sister in law did not give up her job as a nurse in the Middle East to compensate for her children's needs, living me to bring up their children ( with guidance from my mother and sister) which I consider a family obligation and responsibility from God.
No regrets whatsoever since I love my children and I consider them the biggest blessing I have had since the day I was born. From them I learned how to be selfless and reliable.They have given me much luck that our lives change when they were born. Our impoverish life became comfortable and my career started to prosper in ways that I alone cant' conceived.
I became obsessed in giving my kids the best life they can have, the best education, the most comfort and the less hardship without spoiling them and bringing them up in well guarded discipline.
There was a time when I was with no responsibility that I took it upon myself to request the good Lord to take me back in his arms when I am 50 since I don't want to grow old and homely, alone and desolate, gay and repulsive.. But then I became a father by chance... Now I pray differently, I ask for long life, good health and a prosperous life... And I believe I am getting it!
I believe that my positive prayers are mostly answered since I have two angels guiding me to a new path...A FATHER'S PATH....
