A couple of months ago, I remember how people talked behind my back just because I wasn't able to give something in monetary during my beloved Lola's special day as planned. What they do not know is we were down-and-out during those days, had an instant noodles for lunch and that I only had to borrow money from a neighbor to be able to come and also pay debt to someone. We even needed to surpass the storm with my children because I really wanted to see my Lola even if I know that I have nothing to give because I only want to see her on her birthday. Later on, I found out that there were people who are actually smiling at me and even thanked me for coming talked behind my back and criticized me just because I've got nothing to give. Knowing myself, I could have given them a call and curse them for judging me without knowing the real situation why I didn't have the envelope to give.
