It happened not too long ago, in a country where superstition and supernatural phenomena are jsut around every corner of the street.  I was probably seven or eight years of age at the time. I was at an age when I didn't believe in anything that was said to me, except maybe when it came to playing games and getting toys.  My grandmother, Ligaya, a strict and devout believer in Christ taught me prayers of gratitude, forgiveness, patience, and more.  This also included prayers to ward off demons, which I remember using wheneve I was playing with friends and cousins at nighttime or when I was by myself.  Whenever I was afraid, I would the prayer and I would feel safe and unafaraid again.
