CHILDREN OUTSIDE THE MALLS

It is undeniable that there exists the rich and the poor. This fact is indeed true even towards children. It hurts to see that at this young age children are already open to the idea of the disparity between the two. As between rich and poor children, no one is to be blame between them. The status of living these children are categorized into is just the reality of life.

What is unacceptable is that there is inaction on the part of some authorities or people concerned or even ordinary citizens to help these children who belonged to the lowest stage of the community. They are children who know nothing yet of what really is in-store for them. They should be taught and guided until they reach the age of majority or even after. Try to observe going to big malls. Manifest in the side walks are children either offering services to carry things for you or asking a coin from you. They are working at a young age not knowing the risks they are taking into. They are on the streets instead of staying at home doing their homeworks and be caressed with the presence of the mother and father and not to mention the safety that should be afforded to them. It is painful for the heart to see these children. Because you have limited resources and the fact that you cant even solve your own problems its just painful to the heart to see and realize that even you is one of those who are doing nothing.

If only...

SAVING MONEY

According to pinoymoneytalk.com, saving money is a state of mind. Saving is a reduction in expenditure or cost. This discussion focuses on saving money in a bank. It is more advantageous if you save your money in a bank for obviously it will earn interest. It may be hard to let go of a want but at this moment of our lives, saving is one solution to obtain unlimited amount of resources.

When we were young, different people gave us money as gifts. We spent this money not knowing the importance of its use. Well no one can blame an eight year-old or even a fifteen year-old in making use of that money. All they know is they own the same and they have the right to make use of it.

But what if you have been saving this money since you were at your young age? Imagine the money you have saved from that on. Saving money in a bank is one trait that we should teach our children. This might not make them rich but at least it will not leave them empty-handed.

MAKING THINGS SIMPLE

Looking for a job entails hard work, not to mention the adjustment you need to consider in dealing with people of different personalities. There are a lot of job vacancies out there contrary to what others say. All you have to do is look hard and learn to work without being very choosy. In third world countries like ours most citizens are looking for their luck in other foreign countries. They find fortune by working abroad as domestic helpers, caregivers, skilled workers and the like. They sacrifice themselves by being away with their families for long years. This seemed to be the only solution that citizens in our country have to alleviate their quality of life.

Is it really the only solution? Decisions in life are a matter of choice. You can have all the money you want if you search, sweat and work hard for it. This does not mean you have to work far away from your family. Spending time with your family cannot be equated with the money you earn in a month or even in a year. This should not also be taken for granted. We only live in this world with limited time. We need internal happiness to survive. In deciding for yourself and your family, choose what is best for you without necessarily leaving one for the other. It may be hard but in God nothing is impossible.

earninig at home is one way. In this case you can have both. Slowly but surely you can attain the dreams you longed to achieve not just for yourself but for your family. Let’s not make things hard for ourselves. Instead, let’s keep it simple!

WHOM WILL YOU CHOOSE

Our life evolved with the people surrounding us. They are considered one of the factors in molding our personality. What we do describes how we interact with other people. Our decisions in life affect the people around us. We are not alone in this world. No matter what we do it always involve other people.

Getting married is another stage of our lives that cannot be ignored. However, to indulge into marriage is one big decision that a person has to take especially if you belong to a family with very close relationship. Asking permission from your parents to get married is one big step to take. You’ll never know what their reaction will be. Because of respect and love you don’t want them to get hurt or to be angry with you. But you cannot skip marriage as well especially if you already met the man or woman you believe is the right person for you. Love is a blessing that has to be kept and treasured. It must not be abused. In the same way that you have responsibility to your parents you also have responsibility to the person you love. You cannot let him or her wait for a long number of years. What if he or she cannot take it any longer? Would you wait for that time to happen? Does getting married means leaving your parents away?

This may sound a simple question to some but still it must be well taken into account. Choosing between your parents and the person you love is and will never be easy. These individuals are but the most important persons in your life that you cannot take the risk of breaking their hearts. So, whom will you choose?

FAMILY OR CARRIER

You were having dinner with your family. You talk about different things. You can easily open up all you wanna say about school, work and friends. This time may be considered a bonding moment for you and the members of your family. This may be an ordinary dinner nevertheless a quality one.

What if in the course of the conversation you end up with an inquiry as to whether who will you choose your family or carrier? This is a simple question yet quintessential. It is never wrong to pick your carrier for if your family loves you they will understand the path you wanted to follow. They will support you all the way. However, without your family you will lose the source of your strength. Emotionally, you are incomplete. You may have all the success in your carrier however there is lacking inside. On the other if choosing your carrier is the very thing that makes you complete then you can go on with it. They say opportunities do not last that long; grab it while you can.

This case seemed to be a simple question. You don’t need to choose between the two. You can have both. You can be successful without leaving your family. No matter how busy a person is, he or she could find time if he wants to. It’s just a matter of managing your time and setting your priorities as well as remembering the persons who became a tool in what you have become at present.

Do you really have to choose?

TRAVELLING WITH YOUR FAMILY

It is not too often that you get a chance to travel together with your whole family. Now that your children have their own work and responsibilities in school, it is hard to catch up with their schedules. Some may even arrive at home too late. It’s either you get to eat together with two of your children or three of them or even sometimes none of them. This is the reality of life. It is commonly said in the case of couples that with the long time that they have been together and for years that they have longed to build a family which they successfully did in the end it will come to a point where it will go back to the time when it is only both of them together. That is, their children will grow and sooner build their own family and dreams.

You may not have realized this for now because you are still young but time will come when you will remember what the author is trying to imply. With this, it is important to spend quality time with your parents and your brothers and sisters. All of us are busy in whatever things that we do whether or not the same are important. But taking time even just a number of hours to travel with your family will do wonders in your life. Don’t think about the expenses but rather think about the fun and the moment. This moment will then be treasured by you, your brothers, sisters and mostly especially your parents. It is the happiness within that matter.

Get a time out in your busy schedules. There is always time for everything. Spend time with your family. Think of the treasures that you once forgotten.

A FATHER’S HEARTACHE

Growing together with our family is pretty amazing. It’s like we have our own identity which cannot be taken apart from us. They form and mold us who we are right now. Of course there are exceptions to this rule for how we deal with the circumstances around us depends upon our own decision no matter whatever other people might think. The truth is whatever decisions we make for our lives, whether negative or positive, our family will never leave us alone, most especially our parents.

A lot of things have been mentioned about the role of a mother in our family but little has been to a father. The father is considered to be the head of the family; the one who has the last say; the very person who is considered to be the strongest of all as well as the protector of all the members in the family. He provides for the financial needs of the family although at present it is common for both the husband and wife to obtain work to finance their day to day expenses.

But what happens when after everything that a father had done to his children, the latter committed a big mistake that it broke the heart of the former? It is undeniable that we are not perfect and as an individual we commit mistake, which mistake may be done intentionally or unintentionally. The least that a father could ask for his children is for them to finish their studies and be responsible persons and citizens. A father’s heart is broken when, among others, a son entered a premarital s3x and the woman became pregnant. This is a big loss for him, not only because of what the son did but of the fact that there is something lacking in his mode of molding his kids, that his son became so irresponsible in committing such a huge mistake. Nevertheless, because of his responsibility as a father, he continued to support his son. This is a fact that family never leaves you no matter what happens to you especially your father who will guide you all the way till his last breath. He stays with you and stands not behind you but beside you.

Think first before you act. This is not the kind of stuffs that you will give to your parents especially after everything that they had done for you to attain all the things you need in your life. They deserve better!
