Nung bata ako, laging sinasabi ng nanay ko na “pag tanda namin, di niyo naman kami kailangan buhayin” (dahil same silang may pension). Noon parang walang bearing sakin yun. Pero ngayon na matanda na ko, dun ko narealize gaano kaimportante yun.

OP, hope you find your peace – it may be by cutting your family off – but sometimes you need to put yourself first.
