Today's Mantra

Forgive and Forget?

  Unforgiven I believe in forgiveness, in wishing those well who have hurt me. But I'm going to make an exception. Because the truth is, I hope to God you suffer very heartache you put me through.

Basta at may pera sila inaalala. Tulad ng nanay ko Di ko masyado pino-problema pera. Sana lang kung walang kailangan bayaran. Okey lang kahit walang personal assets, Pero pano pag dumating na si kamatayan. Ma-momoroblema pa sila. Paano ka ipalilibing? Walang ipon. Mangungutang pa sila? Ah sa SSS may 20,000 yata dun. Arkila na lang ng ataol. Pa-cremate para di pa magastos. Bahala na siguro sila. Patay ka na. Di ka na dapat mag problema.
