What Makes You Sad?

I am reading some blogs and my eyes was hooked with the question above. It's very different point of view where some of us are looking for happiness. We are looking for life's meaning and purpose. I want to particiapte on this question even if it has expired already to see what's inside of me that made me sad. Am I ready? Let's go!

Hello hive beautiful people. I would like to say thank you for the question being asked that motivated me to write my entry.

I know in myself that I am happy, positive, resilient, and carefree person. Sadness has a little space in my heart since I can divert my mind easily. However, I don't understand myself of the weight I had carried it all along. Maybe it sadness or what if it's more than that without knowing it all along.

Maybe I will just talk the four major points on the things that made me sad in my family, friends, people and students. Do you want to know about it? Just keep on reading...

First is my family, the things that made me sad is during Sunday when no one remembers to go to mass and I need to remind and encourage my family to attend the Mass. Attending the Mass is the highest form of worship no matter what. It made me sad because my brother is busy doing their laundry. My sister is busy also in their work even if it is Sunday. It's a day of rest and worship. My mother also won't initiate most of the time to encourage her grandchildren in attending the activity. I think she was dependent on me. I don't like the idea of it. It should be them on their own little ways to carry out the activity. (Maybe it's just my thinking also.)

Another one is, they are living together without receiving the Sacrament of Matrimony. For me, it's very heavy in my part that they have kids and still haven't receive the blessing from the Lord. I believe that God's full blessings was blocked due to sin. I felt sorry and helpless. I surrendered it all (everything) to God: my family.

Second is my friend, I felt sad when my closest friend was not living with her parents due to family feud. I was schocked because in our high school years they were so family oriented. They were so happy. Today, we considered that we are already successful in life having a higher salary rate, she had traveled inside and outside the Phillipines yet they were not okay with her parents.It made me sad for that how she suddenly changed. Maybe because of her work. "It's true that bad company corrupts good character."

The owner of this photo was my friend. I just downloaded it for personal use/copy because her cp was the offical camera of the group at that time.

Another is when you are happy with your friends and yet you do not know if it will happen again knowing that you have different paths to take and you have another priorities in life. Two of them went abroad and the other one got civil marriage.

Third is the people who do no good to other people most especially bad politicians. I felt sad everytime I see roads under constructions knowing that it was a better road before.

Lastly in my students, I felt sad to those students who are not showing interests in their studies. Those students who need help yet refuses to be helped. Time is fleeting and you cannot undo time. Regrets in life attacks you later in life.

In my end, having it written made my heart lighter. We need to acknowledge the sadness in our lives so tbat we can make steps on how to deal it with patience and kindness to ourselves and with others.

Thank you for reading this far. It made my day. :)

With Love,
