This is a very inspiring story, it just goes to tell us that what You are doing now or where you ar3 now does not determine where you will end up. God indeed has his own way of dealing with our sorrows and frustrations in life all we need to do is to trust him. This lady had no idea that her story would end her in the position that she has now. All she knew is that she is a cleaner and that is what she amounts to. Sometimes we are pushed to do certain things by people who don’t even know us and it’s this stranger’s that propel us to greater levels in our lives. Another thing I have learned from this story is that you should never look down upon yourself because there is a hero in all of us. We all are capable of doing certain things in life. It also reminds me to never look down upon anything because it’s through that thing that your blessing may come from. Always do your work with joy, love what you do, put in effort do it to the best of your knowledge and even though you may not see much in what you do, remember that there is always someone watching from afar and they might just be the breakthrough that you have always wanted.

powering story, from a human who liked to fight and stand on her feet, she delt with her sorrow in a way to benefit from, pushed her self capablitly so she can become something or legend after she was poor human, reminds me of many of the people who become a flag after they were either waiters or cleaner or anthing or any job that made less money, with keep on failing they learned that they are strong and they are good to live a good live but needs to find a way to reach aht life that they want.
great people are not people with money but people who do not give up and do great jobs for themselves and for the society that ht they live in

So pitiful, they surely cry. It is hoped that by next semester there is better performance of their academic life. It is their fault fro they never take their studies seriously. They are tempted with the works of technology and bonding with friends.

May God bless them

Traffic was not that congested at that time, unlike today, one can not do it. Your father was a good husband, because he loves your Mom’s cooking and he took the time to have lunch with her at home; and you too!

That was a very nice togetherness with your dad. I am so sure your heart was bleeding in sadness when he died.It is not easy to lost someone dear to us especially our parents.I hope your mom is still alive this time and still enjoying her cook.Thanks for this nice post.

That is good story and all of us do that, for me my work si 30 minuts if no crowd and really i hate everyday or amost every day to go to my job, but what to do, we need to work for ourselves for the family for the community for many reasons, but only if the work is near by it would be better, the crowd is another thing, oh my God and the traffic is so bad when its summer and the ac is not working
But in some places its not the crowd that is the issue wince it becom somthign that you are used to with the time wnd with daily usage, but the issue is the stupid drivers who rush you and they run to the road or those who do it slow way things i can never understand and make me so angry from them, they should have their own way and they think as if the king fo the raods.
thanks for sharing the story

It was interesting to read your post regarding your dad’s practice of going home for lunch from bank. True it is good to have food in one’s own home. good day

If my working place is not away from my home, I would prefer to go home during lunch time to eat together with my wife. I have the same feeling with your dad. I do appreciate the foods cooked by my wife. I would love to see her on how busy she is. My presence is more than enough to relieve her of her chores.

Eating together is one of the important moments I always cherish to do especially not only with my wife but also with my 6 children. I am happy to see them eating together in one table, talking, joking and whatever they do. We have a strong family ties because of that and also we believe that family could be together forever.

Every year especially during new year’s day, we spend our quality time with our family in going outing especially to the beach. Our family bonding is indeed strengthened. We want to build the true spirit of family that prays together, stays together or even forever.

Anyway, in this kind of attitude a dad has shown has edified the saying, “there is no place like home.” I believe that.

The victims tested the limits of tolerance of the suspects. They bullied them, another made statements that really touched the pride of the barangay official. The victims could had just mind their own lives; they should still be alive if they did not acted badly.

It is such a disheartening story. Of course, no one wants somebody dead, but I think the bully asked for it.

Maybe if we looked at the background of the bully, he might have some problems at home and vent it out to someone he thinks are the weakling at school.

Like we are know being quiet doesn’t mean that i am weak. That is one thing that people don’t realize. Never take people lightly for you never know what they are capable of. I have always believed that quiet innocent people are not what they seem. They are usually the bad ones when they are offended. Usually they would just let you abuse them in whatever way whether emotionally or physically, but when they finally get fed up and cannot take it anymore they usually react in a such a violent way that no one would have thought of. I know I have been a victim before, am usually a quiet person but when you cross my path you may not like what I will do. Don’t get me wrong I have never hurt someone before physically but I have emotionally hurt them because what they did to me was too much for me to assume. And after I did that they apologized and now we are the best of friends. At least I can say they learnt their lesson not to play around with people’s feelings because they would get hurt. They also got to know the other side of me which was not very pleasant. So I do agree that people should be cautious with the way they deal with others because people are different.

@Ruby, it was indeed the fault of the 16 year old boy for he does not have feeling for his neighbor, plus that boy that killed him was younger than him. He should have felt the young boy his brother. He should have served as the right model. Maybe he was called by his ad fault and that was because of his wrong attitude bullying.

@Anitah Gimase , at least those people had changed their dealing to you after you confronted them through strong words. Me too, never experienced bullying and hurting person’s feelings for I am not so sure of the attitude hidden within themselves and regret comes at the end of the deeds done.

This is pitiable that such incidents are still taking place in a civilized society. Of course, the number is very less when compared to those existing earlier. The incident clearly shows that it is not the appearance or physical strength that is needed but the mental activity to fight back and its intensity that works. Bullying is no doubt a bad thing and it is also a crime. But, it should be in its limits and when exceeds the damage of it will be quite miserable. I had this experience. There were some people who were bullying me as I joined newly. I punished them severely in the class by slapping each and everyone. They developed a grudge and while playing football they all encircled me and was beaten. I made a complaint to the principle and asked me to hit each of those guys and I did it without any hesitation. Didn’t I commit a mistake? I could have excused them. But, no. Never. Take revenge my inner consciousness was not accepting for any compromise.

They all took it to the notice of my parents and mother took me to task with a strong bamboo stick. Later she explained everything how one should behave in such a situation.
