oct 31, my 2nd son turned 19. he had a few of his classmates for some snacks and some bonding moments. then a novena was said. my siblings arrived, all six of them in various degrees of prosperity and misery. all but two are always with us in our family gatherings. the 4th child lives farther away and cannot simply come even during these family gatherings. especially the 3rd child for he lives in laguna, he can only come when finances permit.
he cannot come and go as he pleases for his earnings cannot allow it. he is lost himself. he has given so much of himself to his family neglecting his duty of respecting himself. the amor propio (pride of oneself) is lost. i wont talk about it unless he starts opening up, but i will talk about this with the other siblings.
once you lose yourself, you begin to lose self-worth. when you've given up so much of yourself, you lose your dignity. there has to be some limit and you should know when to stop giving. else,you would stop living . . .
