Wrestle the complication


Living in our world seems so hard because of the dominating thing called money. Most of the time, were having a problem because of this. “Money cannot buy happiness” is absolutely true. But in order to live, money is a requirement; an essential part of a being.

It's being stressful knowing that you need money to sustain living. The harder part is seeing every price increases. In broadsheets, you’ll see a big bold headline indicating price hike. Price hike of everything brings noise to your life. Considering you’re just a teenager and living with your parents. I am a very concerned daughter. I felt bad for my parents who are striving hard to earn money and sustain our family with almost 15 members but I am thankful how God bless our everyday lives. In other cases, could you feel how others struggle? How Much more the family who are living in a rural area, homeless and jobless? How can they survive it? Rice is most important part of a meal. Its value expands almost every week. How will they manage their daily budget if every price hikes?

To see those dull lives of the Filipinos gives a very despairing feeling not only to me but to everyone.  I bet your heart aches whenever you see kids starve. They are everywhere knocking on every windows asking for food. We know that there is a solution but how can it be solved if the leaders of our country is being 
inconsiderate.

I was so shocked to know they even the price rate of sugar, soy sauce 
tomato went up. A basic salary is sort of not enough to nourish a living especially when your family is huge. Last night I watched news and felt the same sad feeling because of toll price hike. I was like, "What is happening?" For me that thing is kind of questionable because it is not that clear where our toll payment goes. I consider the salary of employers who are serving us. The road fixations and constructions is also acceptable. But how about the other earnings? Where does that money proceed? Living is full of confusion especially in the country where we live. The value of everything goes up. It may be unacceptable but there is no other way but to live with it.

We can change the place where we exist. We can make a difference and let the leaders bow to their followers. They're just a human anyway, not our God. We can surely do little things that will give impact. Wrestle this complication and prove other that you can change lives, not just your life but also the existence of others. Do not just simply listen, make a way. Do not just heal yourselves, heal our nation. This writing may be negative in a little way but I believe that it is the strongest way to encourage lives.
