So you've kept this little drawing inside your wallet all along. It's really weird that Mama only found out about it now. But nevertheless, this is something that I am most interested in , among your other drawings and paintings. It looks a little bit weird yes, but I know there is a meaning behind this drawing - the heart shape, the stars, the moon, the sun and the person at the bottom of the heart. I mean why would you put them all in the same drawing? Well, only you can probably tell us what you were thinking at that time. For the meantime though, I asked my "godly" friend what she thinks of it.
There are at least five key symbols in your drawing. I have taken the meanings both from my friend and the internet.
1. The moon which apparently represents light because according to my friend, if we come to think of the ray of the moonlight, it lights up even in the dark. But I read on the internet that the moon represents the telestial world, which is the lowest among the heavenly kingdoms. And this includes those who do not or have not recieved the gospel of Christ just like those who tell lies.
2. The stars on the other hand represent the terrestial world which simply means our earth.
3. The sun is the celestial world where God resides, and the highest of the three heavens.

4. The heart shape obviously means love I suppose.
5. The man at the bottom of the heart: At first glance, it looks like a man on the cross. And also when I zoomed it I kind of noticed that the head is slightly bent towards right shoulder. My friend said that the man could be you and the whole drawing simply represents the kind of person that you were. But I would also like to think that the man is Jesus.
I don't really know. This drawing may be interpreted in so many ways. But my friend said that there is a realm of spirituality in it. So, I decided to search for Bible verses that I can somehow relate to your drawing.
"And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the Heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years." (Genesis 1:14)
"And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring" (American King James Version)
I found more verses but I got scared because they remind me of what you used to tell Inang and Mama about the end of the world- that there will be water and other calamities.
My friend said that she will study some verses and let me know about the relevance of your drawing in the Bible.
I have also contacted a counsellor this afternoon just to ask for their opinion. She said she will refer me to a psychologist so I can explain to them exactly what I want to know. Don't worry anak, I just want to know what your drawing means and that's just it.
I miss you so much you know. Please know that I love you.
