Mga Salamin at Bakal

Mga Salamin at Bakal


Photobucket



Ang Buhay ng tao ay parang Salamin at Bakal na mula sa bagay na nang gagaling sa lupa, ito ay hinuhubog para maging maganda, makinis at makinang sa mata natin. Tulad din ng tao, mula sa pag silang, tinuturuan at pinangangaralan tayo para makayanan at tugunan natin ang mga pag subok at pahirap sa buhay.

Ang kaibahan ng Salamin sa Bakal ay, ang Salamin ay marupok at maselan, konting banga o tama sa kanya ay nag kakaroon sya ng lamat o tuluyan na syang mabasag at maging piraso-piraso, na tulad sa tao na pag dumating na ang pagsubok ay nawawalan na sila ng pag asa at parang gusto na nilang tapusin ang kanilang buhay. Ang bakal naman ay matibay, kahit anong hampas mo sa kanya, sya lang ay nagkakaroon ng mga bungi o yupi, tulad sa tao na kahit anong pagsubok ang dumarating sa kanya kaya nyang tugunan at ihaon ang kanyang buhay.

Ngunit sa pag tagal ng Salamin at Bakal, sila ay nagiging luma, nawawalan ng kinang, kinakalawang at nilalagay nalang sa isang tabi na parang wala ng silbe at gamit, tulad din sa buhay natin na pag lumipas na ang mga taon tayo ay tumatanda at nagiging walang silbe sa lipunan.

Sana, gaya din ng mga Salamin at Bakal, and buhay ng tao ay pwedeng ulit tunawin at ihubog para magkaroon tayo ng bagong buhay.

Ano ka…
Salamin o Bakal?

Friendly Little Kid

While Walking with the group Indios on the Unang Lakad ng Taon on January 8,2011, i chance upon a family sleeping at the street near Escolta. Went and see how they were and when the little boy saw me he was all smiles and friendly, playing around in his make-shift bed. I ask what was the redness in his eyes and the mother told me that he just had sore eyes. Then i ask how many months was he (because he was still small), then the mother answered that he was more than a year old, then continued telling me her story that that's why he was small is because he is not drinking milk always and that the father, thou has work (he works as a pedicab driver), is always drinking with his friends, and does not buy milk or food for the kid, the mother always begs to the father to stop drinking and take care of their child and would always fight about it. Then the mother told me that she is thinking of moving back to the province so she could take care of her child.

That kepts me thinking... why would a father have a child but do not know or want to take care of him!!!!
