Poverty
Filipino girl, 11, hangs herself in despair because family were poor
"Filled with despair at her poverty-stricken life in a shack, an 11-year-old girl wrote in a diary how she wished for new shoes and jobs for her parents – then slipped a rope around her neck and hanged herself." (read full story)
Have you heard of that news people? Super naiyak kasi ako kanina when her story was aired sa Wish Ko Lang. O di ba? As in super iyak ako! Nakaka-awa naman kasi talaga eh!
And because of that news, I realized so many things. Nakonsensya ako bigla. I should stop complaining about so many things. I should be contented with what I have right now. And I should be thankful that I can have all those things that I want. Haayyy... poverty!
And it made me think that i should not complain about my profession. Cos there are so many people out there who's dying to finish my course and here I am complaining about it. Bad!
I also feel sorry for our country. Ganon na ba talaga tayo kahirap? TSK! Anong masasabi mo dito Madam President?
