Ryan Agoncillo tells parents to listen to their children: 'They are our wake up call'

Ryan Agoncillo took to Instagram to share an enlightening conversation he had with his son Lucho during the 15th birthday of daughter Yohan.

Posting a selfie with his son, Ryan began by narrating a happy scene from presumably a lucid dream, said he feels he's exactly where he wanted to be, and tagged it as another entry for his Instagram series, #storiesforlucho.

A lucid dream is a dream during which the dreamer is aware that they are dreaming. During a lucid dream, the dreamer may gain some amount of control over the dream characters, narrative, and environment; however, this is not actually necessary for a dream to be described as lucid.[Wikipedia] my daughters 15th birthday,i was exactly where i wanted to be. in my corner of the kitchen, my parents playing with my youngest, my wife laughing with my siblings and their kids, my mother in law giggling with my eldest. my boy snuggles and buried his face in my neck silently. Lucho:How old are you? Me:40. Why? Lucho:I want you to be 40 forever. the next day, I am exactly where I have to be. a quarter of a days ride away from home, in the scorching trenches, with our general and her platoon, bleeding for every inch to fulfill the promise of a thousand and one smiles. night falls and it’s time to head back. on the fourth hour, a lorry locks its wheels and threatens to go bottoms up right in my path. i only manage to flip the bird at the drivers carelessness and conitinue my journey home. in my garage, i let the quiet sink in the dark. then a voice. Lucho:Dad Me:Why are you here? It’s late. Lucho:So you can come home na. we start walking Lucho:You’ve been sick, why did you have to go to work today?

"In my corner of the kitchen, my parents playing with my youngest, my wife laughing with my siblings and their kids, my mother in law giggling with my eldest," Ryan narrated.

"My boy snuggles and buried his face in my neck silently," Ryan continued and shared a conversation with Lucho, who told him he wanted his dad to be "40 years old forever."

Ryan then followed with yet another scene off his lucid dream, said he was exactly where he had to be, and added another conversation.

"On the fourth hour, a lorry locks its wheels and threatens to go bottoms up right in my path. I only manage to flip the bird at the drivers carelessness and continue my journey home. In my garage, I let the quiet sink in the dark. Then a voice. "

Lucho: Dad
Me: Why are you here? It’s late.
Lucho: So you can come home na.
we start walking 
Me: Because when you have a job to do, your team mates depend on you, and you don’t let them down. Just like you as a striker in football, no matter how tired, you have to do your role and help your team right?
He nods as he opens the door to let me in and get hugged by his mother and sisters.

Ryan ended his note by issuing an important reminder: "Parents listen to your children, they are our wake up call." — Jannielyn Ann Bigtas/LA, GMA News
