During breakfast this morning, Maw cried as she told her dream about her sister, (Jua)Nita, who appeared as a young child dressed in ancient, clean clothes.
She was a smiling and very happy. She told Maw that she needed help feeding her children and needed milk and rice. Maw told her that she had stacks of rice in our garage and that she would give two sacks (sackos) of rice to her.
So Maw told her Paw to help get the bags of rice. But for whatever reason, old grand had placed those sacks of rice in a poor location. The rice were soaked in water and muddy.
The first impression I got was that the recent typhoon of the Philippines has left most of the rice paddy fields all muddy, rendering the rice crops useless, thus the people were left with no harvest or food from their staple crop of rice.
Nita then showed Maw a heap of laundry on the bed. Nita was happy that Maw offered to gather up and help to do her laundry.

That was the first time Maw reported a good dream.
