It’s always about money

I have a relative who only talks to me to borrow money. She does not even call to say hello or to ask me how I am. She assumes I could just give money away because I own a company. I do not even buy new shoes for myself, woman!

Can I say no? NO. That’s not an option. She’s the closest family I have, aside from my dad. Everyone else is a country away.

I feel like I’m buying her love.

This is why people go to Ireland and become hermits.

sadly, in life there two kinds of people. the givers and the takers. you can only be true to you and be what you are BUT be prepared to be stung once in awhile.

iniisip nila, nka-jockpot sila ng kausap na hindi gusgusing pinoy. nahihiwagaan din sila siguro sa atin. at malamang atat silang malaman kung ano ang sinasab natin dahil alam mo naman, aliw at bilib sila sa sulat natin- seryoso, panggago, o pang wala lang.

tayo minsan. pag nagtitipid na hindi naman dapat kase may karapatan naman tayo magdamot para sa sarili minsan diba? ngunit dahil tayo ay bunga ng pangungunsensya ng masakit na katotohanan ng kahirapan ng ating bayan, may halong hiya ang paminsan-minsang pagpapakasasa natin sa mga bagay na dapat naman talaga ay atin- tulad ng pagpapasarap ng mg hinayupak na mga puti na kaya bilhin ang lahat.

That's not while they all move to Ireland and become hermits, though it's certainly why I did.
