I feel so much 
. Feels like my heart is being crashed! Feels like my heart is being pulled by a chain. So heavy!
That’s why, here I am again. Letting this feelings out. Pouring it out!
an OLD WOMAN. My neighbor, about 10 houses away. She is in her mid 70′s . So old! I could vividly see her veins in her hands bulging through her skin. So thin.
What made me feel this way?
…while riding at a public utility vehicle (PUV) heading to my work, she caught my eye. Seating just in front of me. In her lap was a “BILAO” 
with peanuts packed in a plastic worth 5 pesos.
She’s a vendor! Several years! I even know where her place is.
Glancing at her made my weird feelings grew. The feeling of heaviness! I pitied on her. I did!
I counted the number of packed peanuts, it was only 16 pieces. Imagine! 16 pieces times 5 pesos would result to 80 pesos?! The nerve! How did she able to survive knowing she could only get that amount. What about her fare? 14 pesos back and forth . Her lunch? I know she’ll be staying in the place ’till the afternoon.
After the long day selling, how much money could she able to bring with her at home?
I wanna help! I want to buy all that peanuts! But I did not! The crap!
I could hardly stare at her when she’s fronting me. If she happened to look somewhere, that’s the time I could stare her face. So old really. I could see her left eye semi-closed.
Her skin.
Her posture!
…whew!
Good thing that somebody bought 2 pieces of her packed peanuts. That made me a ‘lil okay.
But me?
So pathetic! I only just pitied on her… no concrete actions!
For now, prayer is the only thing I could give to her. I wish she could have all the luxury in life. To savor it.
Unfair life!

its really hard here to see if I am on the same subject
kindof weird site up however,
I was only bother by one paying so much attention to OLD”
if you live long enough you willl become looking somewhat like her”
Trust me :beauty is only skin deep:
I always talk to the homeless and give::”ALWAYS”
If you are willing to buy a house, you would have to get the loan. Furthermore, my brother all the time uses a commercial loan, which is the most fast.
be thankful you have a decent job…but i think one way to pay God for your blessing is to share it with the others…saving a little bit from your pocket wont hurt you in buying those peanuts when you two see each other again…God bless you both.
thankS you for your woRds….

bitaw, there’s so much suffering in the world.
sometimes, i wonder why..
how does God choose who’ll suffer and who won’t?
what’s the point anyway? if He wanted us to see the other side of the coin, does it have to be through other people? why not just let us experience both sides, just to be fair? why condemn one to a life of suffering and not the other?
hai2x.. i’ll definitely ask Him when i see Him.

she is trampled but not crashed… she has the courage, the determination to be independent..kind of sad if she has children.. we the younger ones will not survive this, i believe…
…perhaps…
thanks for commenting! Godbless!
Mark,
It doesn’t mean one is already poor if he/she only brings home less than what we usually earn in a day. We shouldn’t always make money the basis of comparison. As long as the money she brought home is enough for them to survive and they’re genuinely happy with it – then they’re already rich.
Cheers!
