I Realized That Read.Cash Is Part Of My Daily Life When you love a person, you want to be with him/her almost everyday. You want to see that person always. When that person disappeared, your life became unusual because you are missing him/her. You are worried what happened or when will the person come back or if will he/she ever come back. This was the exact feeling I encountered last Sunday. I was very happy with the tips I received from The Random Rewarder and other subscribers. I never expected that continuous blessing. It was not that big compared to other subscribers receiving tips but for me, it was too much compared to my other articles. Until it was evening when I noticed that the tips I received was not reflecting in my account. I also tried upvoting others articles but I cannot do so. I thought that it was maybe a slight update in the system. After an hour or two, I have been receiving upvotes but still the current tip stays the same. I just logged out from the website and tried logging in again. When I tried to log in my username and password, it was not opening but it has no reason why I cannot logged in. *Was my password incorrect? Was my email address incorrect? Am I banned from this website? Was the website gone?* Those were some of the questions that popped in my head during those times that I cannot logged in. ***What Am I Worried About?*** Maybe you were asking what I am worried about with Read.Cash. `Am I only concerned with the tips?` `Am I also concerned with others tips and articles?` `Am I concerned only with my own articles?` My answer is all of the above. That is the truth. Why? ***Am I only concerned with the tips?*** I am concerned with my own tips. I explained before that this website has been part of my journey for almost 9 months. I earned enough and I believe I will be earning more. It helped me a lot financially especially those unexpected bills to pay. As much as I want to keep it, but there are things my salary cannot fulfill. Just recently, I have overdue balance with the house that I bought. It was going 3 months unpaid so an agent from the housing company called me to pay for as soon as possible. They told me to pay for it that day. So I transferred a part of my earnings in Read.Cash to my account until I completed payment even for 1 month only. I was scared because it says in the guidelines that there is a chance that they will pull out your house if unpaid. I have been paying 4-5 years in my housing loan so I don't want my money wasted and I will pay as long as I can. Not just with the tips, I am also sharing my experiences with other people. I also gave tips and ideas based on what I experience and I also wrote stories with the same topic like others. They also gave me an idea when I read their articles. ***Am I also concerned with others tips and articles?*** Of course. I am also concerned with others tips and articles. I've read some of the articles where they used the platform to help others. Some used it for their family needs. Most of all, their aticles are done by their owm minds and creativity. We write articles because we want to teach people, we tell them stories when they read our articles and they got to know our personalities and stories as well when we talk about our own stories. We also have subscribers whom we became our friends here in this platform. ***Am I concerned only with my own articles?*** I am concerned with everyone writing in Read.Cash. We should be all thankful for the opportunity of writing and earning here. I am concerned with mine. I knew I put all my efforts when I am writing. Most of my topics are my experiences to share. ***I Felt Relieved*** Since I started writing, this has been part of my daily life. Though I don't write everyday, I still plan on the topics that I will write next time. Sometimes, topics will just popped out when I was just staring outside. Most of the time, I gained ideas while I am in the bathroom. Maybe because it is my "me" time. This is where I am just alone and can concentrate better. When an idea came, I will add details on that topic on my mind. Until more and more ideas came. Then, that is the time I will use my phone to write. It is easier to write when you have nice topic in mind. It feels like it is writing on its own because you can finished easily. But there are times when nothing or no idea is coming. I was asking why others can write everyday while I am not. But I want to write everyday. But that is fine as long as I can still write and write. Then Monday came, I thought it willbe okay. That I can write or even comment. But it still not working. I tried deleting and downloading the website. Until I opened the noise.cash and I found out that there was a maintenance and I am relieved. Then when I tried the link and logged in again, it was now working and I just entered the seed words because I tried logging in other device. ***My Final Say*** I felt normal again. I thought I was blocked. Everything went normal and I came up writing today about what I felt during the maintenance. Thank you everyone and have a nice day!

I Am Your Mother, Your Bestfriend and Also Your Enemy Being a mother at 35 is late for me. Nowadays, most women got pregnant at early 20's or younger than that. At the age of 35, some have 2 or more children at that time. But I realized that age doesn't define when to be a good mother. It matters on how you will be a good mother to your kids. We should be there for them not just as a mother but as bestfriend and sometimes, our enemy too. Treat them well and always give them the love that they deserve. I believe that giving all your love to your children makes them a good parent in the future. ****I Am Your Mother.**** I have akways been proud to say that I am a mother. I have one kid and he is Nathan. He is 5 years old and he is always part of my story here in Read.Cash. As a mother, I am strict and at the same time, a very understanding mother to him. If only I could give him everything he wants but its not possible. I will give him what I can only afford. Love is 100% that I can give to my son. From the day that he was born, I already felt blessed and joyful for giving him to me. I promised myself to be a good mother to her like what my mother has been to us. I will protect her from all things that make him sad. I always pray to God that he is safe even I am not around. I also pray to God that he will be a good son to me and to his father as he grows old. I noticed that he mostly wants to play outside the house. From the moment he wakes up and he heard his playmates voice, he will rise hurriedly and will want to go outside. As a mother, I want to keep him safe always even inside and especially outside the house. I mostly got worried when he runs fast while trying to catch his playmates. I am afraid that he might get wounded and cry after. Now that he is 5, he wants more time with his playmates. What more if he turns 10, 15, 20? He will be teenager soon and all that he wants is to be with his friends more often. But it is too far to think. He is still my baby boy. Every mother understands how I am feeling. We are all worried for our kids but we loved them so much. ****I Am Your Bestfriend.**** We are our childrens first bestfriend. We need to listen to them when they tells us story no matter how short or long it is. We should always ask them if they are okay. Tell them that we love them everyday. We should also tell them stories so that they will get used to talking to us especially when they have problems. We should be open to them making them open to us in return. I believe that it will be the start of them trusting us with their secrets. ***I read from an article that "we should listen to our kids while they tell us stories."*** That is what I am doing now. My son will tell me something anything that he wants to say though most of the time I don't understand some of his stories. I am happy with that. I am seriously listening to him but deep inside, I am laughing with happiness. I am always here to protect him from bullies. Even sometimes I knew it was his fault, I admit but I still want to prove he was correct. But I am not telling him to be bad. I told him to be nice to everyone. I am also happy when I saw him meet new playmates. From a baby now a grown up boy. ****Sometimes I Can Be Your Enemy.**** ***"I cannot help it when I hurt you physically sometimes. It means that when I did that, you've done the same mistakes over and over again. I understand that you are just a kid but I want you to learn what is right and wrong so that when you grew up, you will be a better man to everyone."*** I know I spoil my child with what he eats and his habits. I cannot help it because part of being a moher is giving all the love that you can give to your child. So sometimes if he is already bad, I still let him do it which in turn make him a bad person. When I saw his playmates told us that my son hurt them or do something bad to him, I will not hesitate to scold him. I won't let him continue hurting his playmates. I also scolded him if he is too clumsy which happened most of the time. He sometimes doesn't follow my orders. When I told him to get something but he was busy playing with gadgets, he will not get it as if I did not say something. He is also saying some bad words which he just jeard from other peoples mouth. If that happened, I told him that I wil slap his face. He sometimes throw things when he cannot get what he wants. I cannot help it but hit him but not hard. I will not talk to him and let him learn from his mistakes. If he hurt his playmates while playing outside, I will let him in and slap him. We will not talk to him inside the house until he apologized. But whatever happened, I love him and I just want to teach him a lesson. I am his forever mother, bestfriend and will be an enemy if he gets bad at times. Whatever I am doing is for him. A mother will never harm her children. We all sacrificed for them Even a mother is just a single parent, she will still work and work for her kids. Like what I always say, we will be their forever mother. **My Final Say** Our kids grew faster. That is why I believe that while they are young, take care of them like they are still our babies. Hug them, carry them and play with them. Stroll them while they were kids and always make memories with the whole family. Let our kids explore everyday but let them know their limitations. I believe that we are all good mothers. Every good mother have good kids. Thank you to everyone and have a nice day!!

First Christmas Family Day In The Mall After The Lockdown March 2020 marked the day that the lockdown started in the country. In just one snap, everything change. Everyone was locked in their homes. Almost everyrhing stopped and stucked in their houses. I can say that I was just stuck at home for a long time. I can go outside like market but not in the mall. So now that kids can go to malls, my boyfriend and I with our kids went to the mall for the very first time after the lockdown. When I told my son that we will be going to the mall, he was so excited because finally, we will be going out with his father. Not just outside the house but outside the village. Last Saturday, we went to the mall in the afternoon. It was me and my sons first time to go the mall after the lockdown. Finally, I saw the mall again and entered. Nothing change. It was just the Christmas decorations that made it different than before. When we entered the mall, my son wanted to use the escalator so even we will not be going up yet, we used it for my son to experience it again. It was like a ride to him. Even before, he wanted to go up and down with it. I felt that my son was so happy that day. It was a new environment for him. I was expecting a lot of people upon entering but it looked just like a usual day. Only few people were strolling expecting it is weekend and most of the people receive their Christmas bonus. We looked for something to eat first. We did not took our lunch so we ate first. We went to his favorite food chain and before we enter, we show our vaccination card before we order and ate. We ate chicken, fries and pasta. My son kept looking around the place. I am very happy also not because we were in the mall but also because we were together as a family this Christmas season. Before, my son and I went to the mall with my mother but since she is gone, it was just her memories that I can remember. After eating, we went to the department store to look for new shoes and clothes for my son. I thought it would be easier for him to buy a new shoes now that he is 5 because the last time we bought him a shoes was when he was 3 years old. He was too clumsy and kept running from one direction to another. It was hard for him to fit a shoe because he kept running. He was only wearing slippers when we go to the mall because his old shoes no longer fit in and we gave it to other kids so that they can use it. Now that he is 5 years old, it was much harder for him to buy a new shoes because he is more faster when he runs and moves. He wants to go to the toy section and look for different toys that is why he was in a hurry to fit shoes. When we bought him shoes, we also look for clothes for him. The kids clothes were limited so we went out the department store to look in other boutiques for kids. But we cannot find other boutiques so we stroll first. He already wore the shoes we bought becaus ehis slippers were old. Then I saw a nice place near the parking area of the mall but in the upper floor. There were tables for family and friends if they want to eat outside and chill. We already ate so we just took pictures of my son there. Then we go to videogames area. This is where I saw my son very excited when he saw the claw machines, videogames, basketball rings. He roam around the area as if it was his first time to go inside. We buy coins but since he does not know how to use the claw machine, we did not get any prize. Then we went back to the department store to buy clothes for him. We just selected short and collared shirt for him. Then another pair of sando and shorts. I also bought 3 piece of shorts for him. When we bought him clothe, I want also to buy sandals for myself. But I don't have time to look for the sandals because my son was always running. The things we bought was just really for my son. ***My Final Say*** When we went home, it was tiring but it was fun being together as family. Even there is no enough money but as long as we are happy strolling around, it is much better. It feels you forgot your problems. It was replaced with happiness because you find time for your family and self. Family bonding is important because it strengthens your relationship with each other.

Sharing My Tips When Looking For A Job It was almost 8 years when I last applied and the questions that were asked to me during interview were all forgotten. Until I saw a video about an online interview. It made me reminisce those days I was applying. Interview is the initial and one of the important factors in getting a job. So we need to try our best from the start. I was watching one of the videos in Facebook when I saw a woman having an interview with an applicant through phone call. I only saw the interviewer but hearing the voice of an applicant made me laughed. She was trembling while answering the questions. It made me laugh because I remembered myself in that position. Her answer always started with how the question was asked to her. For example: "***How do you see yourself five years from now***?" The applicant answered back: ***Five years from now, I am still working as a call center agent.*** She answered very nervously *and it was obvious that he cannot think clearly because of her nervousness.* The answer also looked fake. It was not answered naturally and the answer looked incorrect or incomplete. But when I was asked the same question before, I cannot recall what I said and I am not sure if it was also correct. Here are my few tips when having face to face interview. It can help to some but some can also have their own tips when applying. **Keep an eye-to-eye contact with the interviewer**. This caught the attention of your interviewer. When you look at the eye of the person asking you, it shows your attentiveness of the topic. This shows how serious you are in looking for a job. Whenever I apply for a job, this is what I always put in mind. This was also my mothers advise. Even I am nervous with the interviewer, I still look in the eye and answer the questions as much as I can. I am a shy person but this is what I am proud of myself. I can hide it during the interview. I made myself brave enough. Though I am nervous, I think of things that would make my nervousness less. **Be Attentive.** Listening is a must. Most of the time, you need to follow instructions. This is how the interviewer rates you when you follow them properly. If you did not understand a question, it is okay to ask again. **Be Humble.** I always believe in humility. This can be shown by answering questions with truth but in a courteous manner. You can tell your experiences by not bragging the person you are talking to. If you were asked about your achievements at work, you can tell everything but say it in a right and proper way. The interviewer can easily see your personality by the way you act and speak. **Be Neat.** First impressions last. The first thing that a person can see is your physical looks. You don't have to be pretty or.good-looking.to pass the interview but wearing the perfect attire for application is a must. You can wear pants and collared shirt but it depends on the type of job that you are applying. But it is always best to wear formal attire. It is presentable and respectful to look at. **Be Ready.** I will look for the possible questions that will be ask to me. That I should woke up early and bring the documents and IDs that I needed. I should also have a budget for my food and transportation allowance for the day. I applied to many companies and I learned that we should be ready before interview or before applying. We have to know what job we are applying. If we still want to work in a BPO, searched for the company that we knew would give us better benefits nd incentives. Company that would change our lives fianancially and emotionally. But If it is our first time to apply, always be ready. Take time to research on the questions that can be possibly ask to us. Seek help from a friend or family members who applied before so that they can gave us tips where to apply and what to do before applying. Since I started applying to BPO, I make sure that the next job I will be looking for would stil be at BPO companies. Though I want to work in a government or in an office, my course is not enough for the job. I just finished 2 years from college and they are accepting 4 years graduate and mostly, I noticed that family members of the old employees were also hired. **Be Courteous.** It is always right to say "**Good Morning", "Good Afternoon" or "Good Evening"** to the interviewer. This simple courtesy is an additional points for your application. It shows that you have respect to the people around you. You also need to say **"Thank You"** after the interview. **Be Calm.** In reality, we cannot hide our fears during application especially during interview. But we need to keep calm as much as we can. Think of the person talking to us as a friend or family member. Showing them that we are nervous makes them stronger in asking us harder questions. **My Final Say** It is important to be active during application especially in interviews. You need to be diligent enough and made efforts. If at first you don't succeed, there's more opportunities to come. Failure is part of the process but it will serve as an experience to other applications. Just remember our mistakes and do better next time. Good luck to everyone and happy reading!!

My Son Enjoyed His First Day of Online Class Last Thurday marked the first day that my son *experienced* online study. He is currently in a modular class but his teacher planned to have an online study every Thursday to meet and greet her students. Her teacher is Miss Princess. My son has not attended eversince the online study started. It was just yesterday that he joined his classmates unexpectedly. He also went into nursery for modular class but he stopped because he doesm't want to answer his worksheets. Even though we taught him how to answer it, he will still stop answering it and leave. I decided not to continue because maybe he is not ready yet. Then, when we enrolled him to Kindergarten, nothing changed. He is still unwilling to study. This is where my patience was tested. I already gave up on teaching him. I told myself that I will just wait for the face to face class before he can study. After that, I did not go to his school to get his modules. We also have a group chat to know updates from the teacher and students. I tried to chat his teacher personally that he cannot continue because he is not answering his modules. But Teacher Princess said that if he quits, he will be considered "dropped out" so the teacher advised me to let my son continue. She said that I should still force my son to study but do not physically hurt him. He can still continue by taking things slowly for him. I realized that the teacher was correct I should not force my child to study but I should focus on teaching him once in a while. So I went back to school to get another module for my son. I told the teacher that I will strive harder to teach my son..The teacher also said that someone he is scared of should teach him so he will answer his module seriously. The teacher told me that she has the same student last school year who was also not interested with studying. But they still passed the student for next year. When I was already home, I tokd him yo answer his modules or else, his teacher will go to our house or called him He said that he will answer it. After eating, he was on his mood to answer some. He loved matching type questions but you hvae to explain it to him because he cannot read yet. I admitted I also have faults in giving more time for him to study because of my busy schedules. Teacher Princess also gave milk in sachets for free. Then she said to post a picture while holding the milk. I thought he have to drink it and posted it in the group chat. But what should be posted is just the child holding the milk. ***His First Online Class*** The teacher told me to join her online class once a week. I told her that my son will join. Last week was an unexplainable feeling. I almost forgot that it was his online class last Thursday. It started 9:00 in the morning but I remembered it when I woke up at 9:30. I called my son who was playing with his playmates at the moment. I got my cellphone which my son was using then suddenly I remembered his class. Unfortunately, my phone has no charge and in few minutes, it will shutdown. I opened the link and joined but I charged it while using. I called my son so that his teacher can see him finally. My son waved and smiled. Her teacher called her name and welcomed him. I can feel that my son doesn't know what is happening. He saw other kids but I am sure that he doen't know that it was his classmates. Then he told me he doesn't want to join anymore. He wants to play. I thought he was okay with his class. So I scolded him that he cannot go outside and play in the afternoon. Surprisingly, he joined again. I was happy because he came back. His teacher gave them an activity. They need to draw something that they use in their studies and explained how they took care of it. They will be called one by one and show what they draw. The teacher called her students one by one. My son has not drawn anything yet Then he does what I draw. It was a pencil but funny looking. He draw it using a marker in the notebook so that it can be easily seen in the camera. The teacher ask him what is that. My son said that it was pencil. I was just guiding him in every questions that was asked to him. He looked he was enjoying it. Then the teacher taught them the places in school. There is the clinic, canteen, library, classroon and principals office. It was hard for him to recall other words because the tagalog words are very deep. But as a mother, I felt very happy because I knew my son was enjoying. He was answering when his teacher was telling something. He will say "yes teacher." What was more enjoying was whenever my son answered on his own even his answer was incorrect. That just meant that he was getting active and he was participating. I hope that he will join next Thursday on his online class and be more willing to learn. I am more excited for my son. I am a very proud mother even for that simple thing. What more if he learned how to write and read. Before the online class ended, the teacher said that she needed photos of her students. She told them to all smile and took a screenshot and posted it in our group chat ***My Final Say*** When I became a mother, those simple things is what I treasure. Simple things that my son did like learning new shapes, meeting new friends and remembering what I told him to do. What matters now is to be with him 24/7 and guide him everyday. What matters now is my son's happiness and I wamt to be with him through his journey of life. Happy reading everyone and have good day!

My Phobias And Your Phobias There are some things that I cannot explain to myself. Somethings I want to get rid of. I am scared of several things. There are things I am afraid of just because I saw it for the very first time. There are also things that I am scared of because I see it everytime. Unlike me, there are also other people who have their phobias or things that they were scared of. Here are some of the phobias I have and I hope you can also identify your own phobias, if there is. *****Hydrophobia*****. I am afraid of water. I maybe hydrophobic but not everyrhing about water. But I am not afraid to drink warer, I am not afraid to take a bath, of course. There are other reasons why I am afraid of. I am afraid of swimming in the sea. Maybe because I don't know know how to swim. I felt like I will drown in the sea and these might get me if in case the there are tides. But I am willing to learn because I want to swim even I am old enough. I want to know how it feels like to swim and float in the water. I also want my son to learn how to swim at an early age. I watched my favorite show every Sunday and there was a video that they featured which shows a family swimming in the falls. While they were swimming, there was an unexpected mudslide which quickly flows down the fall and the people escaped fast ro get away in the water. But there was a mother and daughter who did not survived. They were both washed away by the falls. It was an accident but for me, it was painful to watch and knowing what happened to them scares me more. It was obvious that they did not survived but it gets me more scared of water. I am also scared when there is typhoon and strong rain and wind. If others can sleep tight during rainy season, it was different for me. I just lie down and waited for the rain to stop. If it did not stop yet, I cannot sleep. There are a lot of things in my mind especially when it rains. There was a time when there was a typhoon and due to heavy rains and wind, we have no electricity. If we don't have electricity, we also don't have water. During that time, we don't save water because we don't any have storage. It was hard because we cannot wash our dishes even water to use for our toilet. It was hard to move because water is essential in our life. That is why I am paranoid when there is typhoon and even when I saw a high tide or big waves in the sea. *****Claustrophobia***** I am scared of closed spaces or areas. I am claustrophobic, too. Whenever I passed a closed road or a very small road, I felt like I cannot breathe. I felt suffocated. I felt there is something hiding scary inside a dark closed spaces. *****Trypophobia***** I am also scared of small black holes. It is called trypophobia. Even before I didn't know what type of phobia was that, I cannot explain the feeling when I see black holes. It's like many eyes staring at me which looks dirty and filthy. It feels like they are moving in circular motion but it really makes me weak. I cannot stand longer staring at those images. *****Acrophobia*****. I also have a phobia with heights. My imagination gets wide whenever I see high lands or anything tall like buildings or condominiums with terraces. I always think that I was in the rooftop overlooking in the terrace. Many questions popped in my mind I always think what if I sit in the edge? Then accidentally, I fall. I always think if I am the only one in this world thinking the same way. There are famous people who accidentally fall in the building and died. That is why I don't want to live in buildings or condominiums. *****Ophidiophobia or ophiophobia .***** This is fear of snakes. I do believe that most of us do fear snakes. I am scared of centipedes, leech and other insects that have venoms or can cause body pain because of its bite. I remember when I saw a snake inside our house. It was evening when it happened. When I looked at the shelf in our store, I saw a snake which was colored green and it was big and not moving. I shouted and closed the door. Luckily, my father and his friends were outside the house and drinking wine. They pull out the snake and they put it in a sack. It was summer time when it happened. I also found out that there were some snakes that also went out because it was too hot and they want to get out. But they say that those snakes has no venoms but still, they are scary indeed. Even when I tried staring at them in the television, I can't stand looking at their skin especially at their faces. It looks like their going to bite me any moment. What is more scary are snakes with venoms. Once they bite you, in 15 minutes, your body will get paralyzed and you will die. I watched from the news what happened to a kid who was bitten by a snake. It happened in the province where the father and son were sleeping Their house is open and it happened when the snake entered their house and bit the kid in the forehead. He was paralyzed and when he was sent to the hospital, he died. The father searched and killed the snake. It was allowed by the government to kill the snake if it caused damage to people. *****My Final Say***** There are different types of fears or phobias. Even from the food we eat, from what we drink and what we see everyday. We can consult a doctor for advise. Thank you for reading and have a nice day!!

My Random Activities During My Restdays I am always waiting for Saturdays and Sundays because these are my restdays. Restdays at work but as a mother, it will be a forever duty which I never get tired of. After 5 days of work at night, I can sleep normally at night without any pressure. Though we are still working from home, it is still different when you don't have to open your computer, check emails for requests or inquiry and of course, there is no stress. I can say that 2 days of restdays are too short that is why I treasured it a lot. I always make it a habit to spent it with my son and family. I spent my time at work with my colleagues but once I am home, my own rule is to "Be at home". Even before, I am a home buddy person eversince so I just do indoor household activities like cleaning the house and washing the dishes. I am addicted to cleaning our house. Sweeping the floor and wiping the dust in the windows and appliances. I only get out of the house before if I am going to school. I just spent my weekends before watching tv and listening to the radio after doing household chores. But now that I am working and a mother, all I do is focused more with my son but still do the household chores. I always look over our store in the afternoon once I slept. The "me time" during weekends is watching Korean dramas and writing articles here in Read.Cash. Most of the time, while I am out of the blue, I am thinking what to write. Watching K-dramas took most of my time because it has 16 episodes that you can watch. So as the story gets interesting, you will watch more episodes. Per episode is 1 hour. So if I watched 5-7 episodes a day, I spent 5-7 hours a day. But I never did it I can only watched 2-3 episodes and not everyday. In the afternoon, I will go out to buy what is needed for our sari-sari store. Then in the evening is my busiest hours. Once I fixed the bed, I will wash the dishes, make ice for sale, clean the kitchen and if I have free time, wash the clothes again. But now, I cannot clean the house properly because we are many in the house. I cannot wipe the dust properly inside. So all I can do is sweep the floor and wipe it with cloth at night. My weekends seemed boring compared to others.They have their time to stroll but me, I'm just at home. COVID-19 is still here. Though it is now allowed to go outsde with kids, I still don't want to go. I stil have phobia. Not just for me but for my son and family. Before the pandemic, I make it a point to go to malls during my restdays with my son and my mother. I make sure that I make leisure time for my kids. After all, I will be going back to work after the restdays. So I just need to relax and unwind. If I have the chance and money, I want to go swimming with my family, stroll in the mall again and go to places with beautiful views. I want to do something positive. I wamt to learn how to play piano and sing a song while playing it. It is one of my biggest dreams in life. My Final Say Weekends are the best daye for everyone. Especially now that it is Christmas time. Everyone is at the mall doing their Christmas shopping with the family and friends. Happy reading everyone!!

The Peak and Off-Peak Season At Work I am still fortunate thar I am still working with the company I have been for almost 8 years. From my previous articles, I mentioned that our account is slowly transferring to other vendor. We are not sure until when we are gonna stay from our company. We are currently 12 agents in our account and 1 supervisor who also acts as our team leader. When we are still moe than 100 agents, it was really fun at work. There were events and a lot of incentives at work especially Christmas season. We have the peak and off-peak seasons at work ***The Off-Peak Seaaon*** Off-peak season starts from January to September. This means we are not doing a lot. There are times we do not receive any work in a day. We can still receive requests but only few and only few agents can be assigned with work. This season is my "**me and my friends time**". Most of the days, we have long breaks. Aside from our 1 hour lunch, we can extend it to another 30 minutes. While our 15 minute breaks can be extended up to 30 minutes. I also remember when we were just working 8 hours a day that includes 1 hour lunch and two times 15- minute break. We are just working a total of 6 hours and 30 minutes and if it's off peak, we sometimes got more breaks. But it was noticed by the management and was change from 8 to 9 working hours with same breaks. We have more time to stroll around the building. We can have a long walk as part of our exercise or just sit outside and chill with my colleagues. We can take a nap outaide since there are walls around the building where you can simply lean on. If you are hungry, the only problem is the money. But if you have money, you can eat whatever you want because the fast food chains are just around the building. If we are inside the office, we are not allowed to sleep or use gadgets but we can chat with our friends. We have nothing to do so to avoid being sleepy, we just talk and talk. Before, we are allowed to eat inside but later on, it was prohibited. ***The Peak Season*** This happens from October-December which we are experiencing now. But it is less stressful because we are still working from home. Those times were really exhausting in the office. Continuous work were coming and we even work while we were taking a break. We also rendered overtime everyday and even weekends. I even dreamed of my work due to stress. I also found out that even my colleagues were dreaming of it too. One of the things I learned is to eat a lot if we have a lot to do. I brought sandwich secretly at my working station before so I can eat while working. But now, since we are working from home and some of our work were also done by other vendor, it is less stressful. Knowing you are in the comfort of your home with your family is something to thank for. We also skip the traffic. We don't have to travel. After our duty, we can sleep already if we want. I have more time with my son. Stress got away easily whenever I see my son. He is my medicine. I do believe that every parents can relate with that. ***My Final Say*** I am still thankful I have work no matter how hard it is. This is how I support my son and my family. Let us try to love our work. Happy reading everyone and have a nice day!!

Our Small But Happy Community I would like to introduce the place where I am living. A small village but with big smiles in every home. The houses are small but each house has big dreams. Dreaming of successful and happy life. ***Wave Back When*** I remember the days before we moved here. We used to moved house from one place to another. We rented before that is why I can say that our life is harder before compared now. Many years passed until one of my sister planned to buy a house and lot for us since she she has work. It was almost 20 years ago when we moved here in our community. I remember the night I first saw our house. My family moved here first because I still have school that time so I stayed with my Auntie for a week. It was almost vacation and after that, I moved to our new house also. It was scary at that night I entered here because it was a new.subdivision only. There were only few people who lived at that time. We were only using temporary electricity which is too weak. Only few appliances can function. The lights were not bright. There were no street lights so you need your own flashlight on your way home. You can either walk or ride a tricycle when you enter the road in our village. If it is dark, you need to ride a tricyxle but yoi have to wait for 3 passengers more before it runs. But it almost took less than 1 hour to complete the passengers. You will only pay 3 pesos each. But if you want a special ride, you need to pay about 12 pesos which was expensive at that time. I was a student then. I also remember the place of basketball court when it was not there. It was filled with soil and I remember there were carabaos at night. The village was too dark at night. The road going to our community was not cemented. It was filled with soil so if it is raining, it is hard to pass by because of thick muds. Only few vehicles passed there and there were no street lights outside the road as far I could remember. In the morning, it is much better because you can see the few people living there. More houses were empty and it was too quiet but as months and years passed by, many people were moving here. ***Now*** All houses were occupied Some were renting while some owned it already because of the 25-year contract. Some houses were reconstructed. Houses have only same structure before with only 1 storey and it is up to the owner how they want it to be reconstructed. Now, some houses have 2nd or 3rd floors. They have budget to reconstruct it. You can see beautiful houses and some have cars too. If you will see our small village, it is a happy place. People are business minded because they have their own business. Most of us have "sari-sari" stores invluding us. I remember the time when our neighbor which was three houses apart from us, also put up a store. They almost blocked the people who used to buy from us before. Then, they closed but the house beside us, put up a store, too. It was really challenging because aside from us, there were a lot of stores around the village. Until now, we have many competitors. Aside from it, there were different business here like grilling, selling street foods like siomai, french fries, fish balls etc.," other "meriendas", drinks and even "ice candies" which kids usually bought. If you enter our community, you will notice a lot of kids especially now that it is not that strict. In every streets, there are many children playing and running. In every street, you can see people. One of the kids playing outside is my son. He really enjoys playing outside with his playmates and I allow him during afternoon to let him interact with other kids and not focused with gadgets. But it is also dangerous because of the vehicles going in and out of the village. There are many tricycles, bicycles and cars passing. The basketball court is very big and beautiful. It is now covered and newly painted. Every Sunday, there is a mass inside. There is a stage where the mass is held. The basketball court is now open for all. Some are playing basketball and some are volleyball. This is also where meetings and other events are held. One side of the court is a day care center for kids which is currently in modular set up. The road outside our village is now cemented and a lot of vehicles are passing on everyday. It is now traffic and It is better to walk than ride because of the traffic if you don't carry anything heavy. ***My Final Say*** Happiness does not depend on your wealth. It depends on how you enjoy your life no matter how rich or hard it is. Life needs to be enjoyed every single day with our family. Some lived in mansions or exclusive villages but they were not happy compared to people living in urban places. They focused more on how to be more wealthy. While those in small villages, they enjoy what they have but still continue with their dreams. I considered our community as a place to stay for good and for the best We have our sad and good memories here but life goes on. This is our place, our home. Happy reading everyone!!

When You Love Someone, You Have To Say It, Prove It And Never Let Her Go I can say that this is what I learned from the K-Drama that I watched recently. If you are a Korean-Drama lover, you probably watched '**What's Wrong With Secretary Kim?**" This is one of the romantic K-Drama that I watched.. Unlike "**True Beauty**" and '**The Princess and 4 Knights**", they were also sweet and romantic but they were mostly teenage stories. This is an adult type but still, even teenagers can watch and relate and fall in love at the same time. The story is also very funny because of the story itself and the casts. It is very light and positive that every episodes were very awaiting to watched for. There's also a bit of drama but full of thrills and happy moments. This is where I realized that it you love a person, yoi should say it personally so that the person will know your intention are true, but then you have to show it and prove to that person how much you love him/her. It does not just apply to men but for all genders as well. There is nothing wrong when you admit your true feelings to a person but of course, it would be better if it is at the right place and time. The right time is when you are matured in love, when you are both single an when you are in the right time to love **What The Story Is All About** There are those K-dramas I watched before that I got bored during the first episode. But since I watched the first episode, I already got excited of the story. It is all about Kim-Mi so who worked 9 years in the company as a secretary of Vice President Young-joon, the son of the owner of Young-joon Company. The story started when Secretary Kim personally told the Vice Chairman that she will be resigning. Young-joon was surprised because he did not expected and he cannot accept her resignation. But the secretary made up her mind. She already know what to do. She posted online for her replacement. She has finished all her tasks. But the Vice Chairman offered her higher salary and other incentives to win her back but Secretary Kim was decided. He even offered him a marriage which the girl did not believe. She said that she want to have a new life since she has already paid her family's debts. One morning, they hired a new secretary as her replacement. She taught all the duties and guide her while she was still there. From making coffee and to attending meetings, etc. The newly hired was stressed because she knew that the vice chairman was strict. The Vice Chairman offered the secretary a treat one night. He rented the whole park for her to ride especially the merry-go-round where she rode in one of the horses and she was very happy while riding. It was her dream when she was a child. He also rented a cruise where the only 2 of them rode with fireworks. The vice chairman knew how happy the secretary was. It looked like Young-joon has feelings for the secretary which he was hiding but he can no longer hide. When Kim has a blind date which was set up by her friend, the Vice Chairman heard it and went to their meeting place and when he saw that Kim was fixing her date's necktie, Young-joon was angry and called Kim. Kim was surprised why Vice Chairman was there. He just made up his reason why he appeared. Vice Chairman sent Kim home almost everyday. One night, they were in the library to check it. While they were inside, the electricity went off. While they were inside, Vice Chairman found out how Kim loved reading a certain book from a famous author. That author was the brother of Young-joon who was in other country at that time. He was a famous author but no one knows his real identity. He went back to their country and accidentally met Kim while walking. He already liked Kim the firsr time they met. Then Kim found out that the author and vice chairman were brothers. But he did not like Vice Chairman's brother. **The Feud of 2 Brothers** But the two siblings are not close to each other. They were even enemies. It all started when they were young. The author who is the eldest among the two was jealous of his younger brother who is the Vice Chairman. They were in the same grade in school even they have 2 years age gap because Young-joon was very smart that he got accelerated in 2 years. One day, his eldest brother intended to lost his brother Young-joon in a certain place. He said that he will huy something for his brother and leave him there. Suddenly, a pretty woman saw him alone and carrying a luggage and asking for the boys help to carry it to her house. She was being helped by the boy and when he was inside the house, he was being fooled It was a woman with mental issue and tied his feet. He was scared becuse he wants to go home. Thrn he saw a small girl crying. They were together in a room. The old woman committed suicide inside that house where the 2 were tied. Then they helped each other escaped. The girl was living just beside that abandoned house and went inside their house when they got out and the boy walked away until he fainted. The police men saw him. Young-joon was seen by the police and sent to their house. His parents were worried and they scolded his elder brother for what happened. The elder brother got angry with his brother because the attention was with Young-joon. One day, Young-joon pretended that he had an amnesia. That he did not remembered what happened to him. Then his elder brother pretended that he was the one kidnapped. Their parents kept it a secret to Young-joon that they didn't know that all along, Young-joon planned it to make it up with his brother. Then hos brother lived in other country and just came back. **Secretary Kim's Childhood Memories** The young girl with Young-joon who was kidnapped was Secretary Kim. Young joon promised that he will came back to vist her but when he went to their house, it was no longer there because the area became a theme park. They no longer saw each other. Secrerary Kim remembered her childhood memories and he knew it was Vice Chairman who was kidnapped but he said he did not remember any. He said that it was not him. It was his eldest brother who was kidnapped. But everytime Secretary Kim asked his eldest brother about that, he cannot recall the moments when he was kidnapped. Due to Secretarys persistence, he found out that it was Vice Chairman who got kidnapped and not his eldest brother. He admiited it and his family apologized to him because they thought he had amnesia on his childhood that he forgot that he was kidnapped. It was just his way of avoiding the fight with his brother. But everything got okay with his family after. **Happy Ending** Vice Chairman told Secretary Kim his love for her. They went on a date secretly and Young-joon showed her love to Kim. Until they were in a relationship. They always ate together during lunch and he always sent the secretary at home. They even kissed and you can feel their in love with each other. Young joon was very honest with his love to Secretary. If he was jealous, he admitted it. Because of their sweetness, the staff saw them hugging each other. They cannot denied it. Until they decided to reveal their relationship at work. All their officemates were happy about it. Even the family of Secretary and Young joon agreed in their relationship. The brothers reunited and Young joon proposed to the secretary and they got married and live happily. **My Final Say** Falling in love is a gamble. You have to try for you to find out. Trying means saying what you feel to a person you love Saying your true intentions and when you are already in a relationship, prove your love and worth to the person. Never let that person go. Happy reading everyone!!

My Christmas Wishlist This Year Christmas is in the air. We can all feel the cool breeze of this season at night. 36 days left before it's Christmas time. Most of us are excited and getting ready for shopping and buying presents for our loved ones. But what makes us more excited is when we received our Chrsitmas bonuses and 13th month pays. It is our 1 month salary that we got from our company and everyone is looking forward to it. But the happiest of all are the kids because it is their time to receive their favorite presents from family and loved ones. It is also their time to visit their godmothers amd go to places that they love with their families. This may also be a tough time for all because what the pandemic has brought us. Some lost our loved ones and some lost their jobs and businesses. But we should keep moving though it is hard. For me, I am still thankful I have a job and I have salary to provide for my son and family. We can celebrate Christmas in our simple own way. Our family is enough to be with us no matter how big or small our celebration is. ***My Christmas Wishlist*** I have lots of plans to buy for my son and a few for myself. Last year was one of the worst Christmas time because our 13th month pay was already deducted in March because of the pandemic. But I am still thankful because I still have the chance to celebrate Christmas. The worst part was that I haven't bought any new clothes or shoes for my son. It's fine for me not to have any new things for myself but for my son, it was bad. This is because it is not safe to go to the mall last year. There were no vaccines yet and there were bigger cases of people with COVID-19 ***This Christmas*** I hope this Christmas will be a better one for us. I made a Christmas wishlist for me and my son. Some might come true while others might not. **Clothes and shoes for my son.** Since I have not bought him any last year, I wish I can buy him new clothes amd shoes but it is hard because I usually bought stuffs for him when I am with my son personally so that I can fit it right away. My mother was always with us whenever me and my son goes to the mall. The 3 of us stroll, buy and eat after together. That is what I wil miss the most. Going out with my mother. Eversince I grew up, she was always with me in everywhere I go. Even until I started working, I make sure that I will treat her in the mall or we'll just eat together. Until now that I have a son. My mother was always with us. I asked for her decisions on what is best to buy for me, for my son and even for her. Now it is totally incomplete. Christmas won't be the same without her. I always try to keep it normal. To feel okay and to feel moved on but that is how life goes on. Someone will come and someone will go. But my first wishlist will be for my son. He is the main reason why I am inspired in life and why I am trying to be strong. **Pants**. This is for myself. When the pandemic started, I am just working from home. I only go out of the house during grocery time or when I have to do somthing outside. I never wore pants because my old pants doesn't fit me anymore I gained a little weight. Now, I plan to buy even one piece so that I can have one pants to wear and not leggings always. **Cellphone**. I wish I can buy this. I received a new phone last year but it was a gift to me and it is mostly used by my son now. I only want a phone for internet and also for me to write articles. Most of the time, I cannot write continuously because my son is using the phone. Mostly, it is the time when I have nice ideas. **Bow and Arrow Toy**. This is the toy that my son was asking for me to buy again and again. He saw it online and he told me to buy it. I told him that I will buy it once we have enough money and he agreed. Then one day, he showed it to me again. I told him not to click a certain button. He said that he will not click it but when he showed it to me again, he clicked the BUY button intentionally. It was less than a minute when he clicked it so I was able to cancel it that time. It was not that expensive but I don't have the money right now for that toy. His father bought him a sword when he celebrated his birthday. That is why I was planning to buy him the "bow and arrow" toy this Christmas. I also remembered when he also clicked a button online to purchase a toy. I am not sure what toy it was. It was also good that it was noticed by my nephew and we still cancelled it. **Pair of Sandals.** I remember every payday from my previous job, I made sure that I bought something for myself. It can be clothes, bag or a pair of shoes. But now, I never had the chance to buy anything for myself. I don't have a sandals right now. Something I can used when simply going outside near or far. I cannot recall the last time I bought sandals for myself. **Comb.** This is the cheapest gift that I want for myself. It is called a hair doctor. This is a type of comb that makes me feel relax whenever I use it in my hair. It is made of steel bristle that rotates when you use it. The reason why I include it in my wishlsit is because I do not go often to supermarket to buy it. I can only buy it if I have something to buy there which cannot be found in the nearby grocery. **Jewelry**. I love jewelries no matter its fancy or not. If I have to invest on something, it will be jewelries. I love earrings, necklace and rings. I also love collecting watches. For me, it is a different feeling whenever I bought something that I bought. The last time I bought a jewelry was very long time ago. ***My Final Say*** I made my lists to make them an inspiration to me to strive more in life. I know that some are very possible to happen while some can happen in some other time. Those lists are few of my material wish lists. But above all, my family's good health and safety is my everyday prayer. This is what matters to me above anyone else. Happy reading to everyone and have a great day!!!

I Am Tired So Maybe I Just Don't Know How He Felt Yesterday was a stressful day for me. Aside from the fact that it was Monday and I have work at night, I also enxuntered a lot of stress at home. I cannot explain clearly but I was about to cry. I wanted to shout. I don't know how I'm feeling. I am not comfortable with how I felt. A lot of things were going on my mind. **He Was Totally Not In The Mood** There are times that I self-pity. A good example was yesterday. My father was not totally in the mood. He just got angry with us or anything we did made him irritated. One day, he told us to buy ingredients to cook for merienda but there were some ingredients that were not available. He was mad because he was expecting that he can cook it already for us. It did not happen because of lack of ingredients. Then he also told my sister to chat our neighbor thru Facebook for a whole chicken for our dinner. It will serve as credit and will pay it on payday. But when my father asked where is the chicken, my sister said that the seller did not reply but actually, my sister forgot to send a message. My father got mad and he said that how can we have dinner if we have no food. He was so mad and his face looks so angry. I know that he wants to cook for our dinner so that my brother will have delicious food when he got home from work. He went to his room with bad mood. My sister just asked my neighbor who was going to market that time to bought fresh chicken. Then my sister cooked "tinola" for us but when she asked my father how much chicken will she cooked, my father madly answered that he did not know. My sister just cooked all the chicken but I knew she was upset with how my father reacted on her. **How He Felt** I am upset too with my father on why he was in a bad mood. I just told my sister that maybe he has no money. He cannot do what he wants to do. But I also asked myself. Do I really know how he felt that moment? Maybe he was so upset with how things were going on with our lives. That he is now a mother and father in one. That his responsibility becomes bigger and unexpected at a glance. Unlike before that he was not thinking on what to eat, what to cook because my mother does it all when she was alive. He just cooked when my mother does not know how. Thats is why 7 months after my mother died, but still he is on the stage of moving on. But I know that he can do it. I may not be close to my father even until now but I can say that I got worried on him too. Especially whenever he is drunk. He almost got drunk once or twice a week. When my mother was still alive, my mother was always there to wait for him to got home and make coffee for him. She always got worried on us when we went home late. I also noticed that whenever my father was drunk before, he would still talk to my mother about his sentiments within the family and mostly about me. There were things that he always said about me which until now is something I cannot forget. I do forgive him for I know I also made sins to him. A sin of being not being close to him. Now, he cannot talk to us about how he was. Maybe, while drinking with his friends, it was the time where he can speak out to them. I also got worried at him because most of the time, he is just inside his room. I don't know what he thinks and feels everytime he is inside. Maybe there are times he is sad still remembering my mother. He is used in watching videos and movies in his mobile phone to make him at ease. My Final Say Sometimes I am tired even without doing anything physically. I am tired emotionally. A lot of things were stuck in my mind. It is better to be tired physically because a little rest will make it gone but being emotionally tired is different. It affects one's mental health. We all have our ups and downs in life. If someone is happy and we are not, we just need to think that our time will come too for us to be happy. Happy reading everyone!!

Nathan's Crispy Sandwich This was the unexpected business of my niece and my sister-in-law. They suddenly planned to cook a sandwich and sold it online and even outside the house. They became partners in this business. It is called the crispy sandwich. They named it from my son so it became **Nathan's Crispy Sandwich.** It looked like the **"kariman"** that we bought in a convenience store. It is callled crispy sandwixh because it is just a simple slices of loaf bread which can be seen in the store or groceries or market. Then one slice is enough and it needs to be flattened first. Since they don't have a rolling pin, they used a glass then it will be rolled in the bread until itt is flat. It is also better if it's a dough but since they don't know how to make it, bread is a good alternative. Then, the bread will be folded into 2 with chosen spread or fillings inside. It will be dipped in a bowl with egg mixture so that the bread crumbs will held tightly the folded sandwich. Then, it will be fried in a pan with oil in a lowheat only. They need to strain it to lessen the oil from the bread. Finally, once it is golden brown, it can be served to customers. It is crispy and hot. How Did It Started? My sister-in-law took a 2-month vacation in their province in Iligan City, Mindanao. It was supposed to be a 1 week vacation only because she just accompanied his brother with the car that their sister bought online. Since it was bought near our place, their brother will be the one to drive the car. It was a land with sea travel. It almost took them 2-3 days before they reached their hometown. His brother stayed only for 1 week because of work. She planned on extending her vacation and it got extended up to 2 months because of the lockdown and including her mothers birthday. When she was there, she bought in one of the bakeries and love eating a sandwich which is the crispy sandiwch and she found out how it was done. When she came back here, she and my niece planned on doing and selling it. I thought it will be taken for granted because it was just the usual sandwich. But they pushed on doing it. They posted it online and there were people who ordered. They delivered it because it is near our area. They were family nd friends and neighbors who ordered. The prices are cheaper. Their flavors are **chocolate, cheese and mayo cheese** for P10.00 each. There are also ham & cheese and **bacon & cheese and tuna spicy** for P15.00 each The other day, there were also another orders. Some were bulk. When there are no orders, they put up a table outside our house and sell it so that everyone passing by can noticed it. It worked. There are many kids here in our village and everyone who noticed tried and bought it. Their place is also better because beside them is "grilling store" or ihawan. Kids love chocolate. But some love cheese mayo. Adults love tuna spicy and ham and cheese. But for me, I always buy cheese only. I ate it during my shift. It is no longer hot when I ate it hot but it is best with hot coffee. I am also beginning to love spicy tuna because it is spicy. I love spicy.foods. **The Competitor** We have a group chat in our community. We can posts any business in the group chat. They posted their business online so that people will noticed it and they can order online. It will be delivered in their houses too. One morning, we were surprised when my niece noticed that there was a new business which is almost the same as them. It was the "flying saucer". It is called as such because the sandwich or bun with chosen spread like ham, cheese or chocolate will be put inside a device which will fit the bun and it will be pressed down to close to create a flying saucer-like sandwich. It is easier than the crispy sandwich because you will just put a spread in the bun and put in the device and close it. In a few minutes, it is already hot. They have also same price like my niece's sandwich. But with them, a lot of processes should be done before it can be eaten. But the end product is that it is crispy and delicious. It alarmed them that they have a competitor now. They opened early and they also put up their business in front of their house which is in front of the basketball court. But the court is still closed. My niece opened late unlike them. But still, they have many customers. There were days that all their sandwiches were bought but sometimes there were still left We supported them in their business so I always buy their products. My son loves chocolate and ham and cheese. My older brothers colleague ordered also and same thing with my younger brothers colleague. It may not be that hot when they received it but it can be placed in a microwave oven to re-heat it. **My Final Say** Putting up a business should be planned wisely You need to have a goood location and the business you will put up should be primary needs of the people like food. Everything should be studied and planned well to become successful.

Happy For You The title is derived from a song that I just heard a couple of weeks ago. The title looked positive because it is about being happy but in reality, the complete line of the song is "***But why can't I be happy for you?***" When I just heard the song, I already asked my niece about the title of it. It was too emotional. You can feel that the artist gives justice and a lot of emotions to how she sang the song. It was as if she was heartbroken herself and was crying. For me it makes singing effective. You do not have to cry literally but you just look like crying while singing. By putting yourself into that situation. I fell in love with the song right away. I am not heart-broken but it feels I can understand the person who is in that situation. **Why Can't I Be Happy For You** In every relationship, there is heart-aches or joy. Others lead to happy ending while some ended up with nothing. Once the relationship ends, it felt like our life has to end also. This is what happened to others when they part ways or ended their relationship with their partner. It is hard to let go. But we need to move on. But how to move on from the past? For me, it depends on the gravity of your past relationship. It doesn't depend on how long it was. Even If you had a 6-10 year relationship, but all those memories were almost hatred and full of fights, it doesn't make sense. You just prolonged the relationship maybe because one of the couple is trying to save the relationship while the other totally don't care at all. But if you had a 1-3 year or even 6-10 year relationship but those were meaningful and full of love relationship and a sudden heartbreak happen for whatever reason, it is painful. **But how can we move on?** Why is it hard to move on? There are different reasons why a people cannot move on easily from their past. ***He/she is your first love.*** You love the person too much. You've beem selfless in loving the person and you devoted all your time to that person. It is hard to move on because you are with that person.wherever you go. You dreamed together. Since you parted ways, it's hard to start all over again. Yoi don't know where to start and all you think about is that person. Your break-up is emotional. You both have a wonderful relationship. ***You were physically and mentally abused.*** You escaped from a brutal relationship so when you parted ways, you developed a trauma that you can never.forget. You are scared to fall in love again because you think all men might hurt you again. You cannot entertain other people because your mind tells you not to fall again. **You still love him/her.** This is mostly why we cannot move on. We are still expecting that the person will come back and reunite with us. We still love tthe person that instead of moving on, we are still waiting for him/her. We continue calling the person and sending text messages if he/she is still okay and when we receive replies, we thought that a person still loves us. But we did not know that we are the only one loving that person. My Final Say I am not an expert with moving on but I can say that it depends on how the person handles the break up and how to start again. If you have to cry, that is fine because you have to release the sadness or anger within. Meet with friends and talk about it.with your close friends. Go out and make yourself busy. You cannot forget a person easily but slowly it will happen. It is painful but it will make you stronger after
