Do you pity yourself when you don't have money, not even a single cent?  email this discussion to a friend?

Hello MyLotters, Good Afternoon. I say good afternoon because its 4:17 P.M. here in the Philippines.

Anyway, I would like to share one of my unforgettable experience which happened last 7 years. I Had no job, I was not working for almost 3 years after my husband left us. My life is too miserable, we're living with my parents here in San Juan, Batangas, Philippines. It was my loving parents who supported us with all our needs, to think that I was so sick then, I have goiter.

There are times, my children will ask me money like 5 pesos to buy biscuit from what we call Sari-Sari Store (a mini-store), and I can't give 5 pesos because I don't even have a single cent. When my child cried because I have nothing to give her, I cried louder. I pity myself so much. Everything we need is asked from my mother. Sometimes, even when we're very hungry, I can't complain because I pity my mother also who is the only bread winner at that time.

So I came to ask you my friends here, do you also pity yourself when you don't have money? Or i doubt it if you experienced not having even a single cent.

i felt sorry for that and i know how it feels, my bf left me also while im pregnant right now and yet i also dont have job but luckily my wallet is a lucky wallet as i always have money and those are coming from my online earningshappy, believe me as my prenatal checkup, prenatal vitamins, anmum milk which is very expensive i able to buy and pay them from my own pocket even though i dont have job since last year. maybe god never left me as every night i always pray to god to provide me some money coz i really need some and so far i always have some. i just lucky to have internet though i also pay for my own internet bill. i live with my sister right now for free food, lecticity and lodging.

if you can imagine of where will i get those money, though just this week i also manage to buy stuff for my upcoming babyhappy. im also surprised sometimes
god is really great though i cried sometimes coz its not what my life used to be, i remember to have a happy go lucky life with lots of money where i can travel to every places i want and buy whatever i want. i cried coz just for one person evry thing was gone. though right now, im happy to think that soon im going to be a mother and im already excited to see her.

I am surprised about you. If you were in India then no one would have supported you because in India, getting pregnant before marriage is full of shame, sin and so many things. People are non supportive here when there is no marriage.

Also, I am surprised how are you earning so much from internet that you can buy all the things for your coming child. This is indeed god's grace on you that he is caring for you until this day.

I have experienced that before but for only a day. I lost my wallet and I have nothing left to buy me lunch. I didn't pity myself. I thought ways to have money cuz I thought if I just pity myself I'll waste time doing it. It's better if I thought of ways and tried it than cry on one corner of a room.lol

I have had several points in time in my life where we live on just enough to pay our bills and not much else. It's very hard to have to rely on another or an organization so you can eat or do much of anything else. But it is also an opportunity to be grateful and repay those who have cared for you with work around their home or gifts when you are able.

Yeah of course I pity myself when I don't have any money. I know money isn't the most important thing in life, but without it you can't do anything. There is no where anymore that you can go for free. Everything cost money.

It also happened to me when I don't have a job sometimes in 2002. I really pity myself, especially when its christmas where I can see my siblings got their bonuses and me nothing. But I used that situation to get back on my feet and strive harder. Right now, I have a small business and yes because of that situation, I really see to it that I have savings to be ready for lean times.

There was a time when I was suffering only because I never had money for my studies and for having food. I used to starve and I had lost all my health. With great pressure in life, my father inspite of having a lot of money, did not give me money because he was and is a mad man. For him money was his own and he used to beat my mother for the same.

My childhood has gone in great shocks seeing all this and until the age of 31 I was almost like a mad person roaming here and there seeking for love of family. I never got it. For getting love of family I spend thousands of rupees and later on found that there is no love in this world.

Love is what I went on seeking and I went on spending whatever I earned on small kids, hungry families, pregnant ladies and I helped many people in five years. All this happened until the day I found myself on a road standing alone with one bag. My hatred for my father ruined me and my father became more worst and worst.

There are many days in my 34 years of life when I had no food and I starved and starved and when I had money I helped poor families with that. Those families enjoyed with my money and I finally came to know how the world is.

Today also, I am not earning anything because last year my brother cheated me and took away all my earnings, but this time I am staying with my parents and not getting married also because I want them to feed me and I have answer with my life about the rude attitude of my parents. Life has been very worst with me and today I am posting on MYlot whole day because I am in great pain due to my past.

Life is not same all the time, however, in those difficult days we should understand that parents and relatives are given by god to help us and not to discourage us in our lives.
