Hey, how are you feeling right now my dearest virtual friends? Tomorrow is Monday again and a good start to grinding into the real world and also our online hustle. It would be a new life that begins to start over. Have a break for a while and then after refreshing, focus on the goals and what so ever you want to achieve every day just be patient and dare to continue whatever hardships you will encounter in your day.
Let's have a short story,
Way back when I was a kid, I was already aware that our kind of life is not what others could have. We came from a poor family, my parents are uneducated so as we expected we don't have a good and permanent income due to a lack of work that fits them accordingly. We are just renting a small room, not a house, and could you imagine? We are 7 siblings at that time in just a small space. There are times that I see my mom crying silently at night because she didn't know where we can get money to buy rice in the morning. I felt sorry for my parents because I don't have the strength to help them in times of hardships in raising us but I see how they tried.
They both worked hard to send us to school and finish even in Highschool but suddenly I make them disappointed. After I graduated from high school, I got pregnant at the age of 18. Even though they do not get angry in front of me I know I made them sad and disappointed. I feel guilty about them because I am useless and all I gave is a burden.
Having a child at a young age was Unplanned but it was never a mistake, my daughter is always been a blessing to us. New hope to start again in life and believe in a better future.
Always take chances.
If we get it wrong, then make it right for our family. Our parents always give their understanding to us because even if they do not say 'I love you Deep inside we are already forgiven for whatever mistake we did. Always have a chance to make them feel they are worthy and loved.
Why do I work hard?
My parents are not getting younger anymore, my father was already at the age of '62 by the next month and my mother is weaker now. They live in the province and when I visited there,
They do corn planting, and it was very tiring. I can't help seeing them as no one cares. My siblings are now with their families so, I do not tend to ask them to ask for a favor for our mother and father to give any amount for their living. I want to help them, changing life into a better and a comfortable living even in a simple way.
A feeling of Guilt..
Many what If's in my mind and until today it keeps me bothered because of the situation about my parents. I wish I finish my studies and become professional so they could no longer to work on their age like this.
The reason why I do multiple works to earn is that I want to help them and give support as they could no longer need to work. I save money to build a small business someday. I want them to rest and it's about time to repay them for all their sacrifices from the beginning. I want them to be happy even it is simple atleast deserved.
I wish God will grant all my desires and protect me and my family in whatever disasters will come .I know, I will be facing a lot of struggles and challenges before I will end up with victory and a smile of success.
That's all for today guys❤
