✈️💔 She was supposed to come home today…
From Kuwait to Japan to Manila, then finally to Cebu —
Wilma Auza was just miles away from home.
But she never made it.
Instead of a joyful reunion, her family received the most heartbreaking news.
💔 Wilma Auza, an overseas Filipino worker, had just arrived from Japan.
She boarded a bus in Cebu — excited, hopeful, and eager to surprise her loved ones.
But somewhere along the road… she passed away. Alone.
The cause: cardiac arrest.
🧳 Her luggage was filled with gifts.
But her body carried something heavier — years of silent sacrifice.
She was tired. Too tired.
And no one knew how close she was to breaking — not out of weakness,
but from always giving, and never resting.

🔍 A Reflection For All of Us:
📌 To Our OFWs:
You are brave — but you are also human.
Please, listen to your body.
Rest is not a reward. It is a necessity.
You don’t need to break just to prove your love.
📌 To Families Waiting Back Home:
Don’t wait until they come home to show your love.
Check in. Ask how they are.
Encourage them to rest. Push for regular check-ups.
Remind them they are valued — not just for what they send,
but for who they are.
📌 To All of Us Working and Dreaming:
In the pursuit of success, don’t lose yourself.
Coming home alive matters more than coming home with pasalubong.

👣 Wilma dreamed of surprising her family…
But instead of joy, she brought grief.
Instead of laughter, there were tears.
🕊️ To Wilma Auza,
Your story is painful, but it will not be forgotten.
You gave everything — even your last breath — out of love.
You are a hero in every sense.
May your journey awaken hearts.
May your soul find peace.
💔🕯️ Rest in power, our modern-day hero.
