Life on the Edge---.

Thoughts after my review class...

Yesterday, when I was waiting for my Mom to fetch me in front of Greenwich, a boy of about 8-10 years old approached me and a friend, asking for money. He approached my friend first, "'Te, akin nalang yang pagkain mo." he said, pointing at my friend's Jollibee plastic bag.
"Wala na 'tong laman."
The boy snatched the plastic from her and searched for food in it, but he found nothing. So, he approached me.
"'Te, pahingi po ng pera." he said to me repeatingly. I felt so bad because I don't like to give that boy money, I like to give that boy food to make sure that he will be the one who benefits from his begging. I had no choice but to pretend that he doesn't exist.

I know that he (the boy) might think that I don't care about him, but everytime I lay my eyes on kids like these, I get very sad because I never experienced all that hard begging when I was their age.

While that boy's begging, I kept asking myself (or rather praying) "God, what can I do?"

I want to help these people, but right now, I don't know how (personally, that is). I also want to help this country of mine. Many of our man-power are migrating to richer pastures, while these people are stuck here suffering. I know that God loves the Philippines, and He promised that one of these days, the Philippines will be Asia's capital. I don't know when this will happen, but I know it will; we just need to help God to fulfill this prophecy.

P.S. To all the people out there, sorry if I'm too serious in my recent posts. I wish I could have a lighter tone after this post. I think I'm getting too too (I'm just exaggerating) serious... Noooooooooooooo! o_O Oh well, that's life. ^_^
