When I was at the age of two years old I was abandoned by my both parents. I do not know the reason of leaving their 4 siblings. I am the second child among the four.During that time we trying to beg to our relatives to seek help of our conditions but, they said that they do not know us and they don't have enough food to feed our stomachs. Our barangay Capt. brought us to our grandfathers house and begging to accept us, in the first time they tried to refused and the Capt. said that if you will refused to shelter these four children's in your house then we will bring them to sea and we will throw them all. That statement utter by the Capt. is just a joke but it is very very painful and until now I couldn't forget that words. We suffered alot of painful things physically and mentally in the palm of our grandmother's house. Many years came and many years left. I was already have the urge to be educating myself...... I worked so hard in order study in elementary, high school and in college without my parents help. The only things that I will never forget are the good and the bad things that I will always treausre at all times and the valuable who had contibuted a lot in building my future. Before I always asked myself this questions: Who wil help me to reach my dreams in lfe? what are our future? since, my parents iare not there to support our education. Among the four child I was the one who able to graduate at College an associate degree.

YOu should be thankful to whoever helped you through out the process of your life and should help them out whenever they are in need. You have faced a very hard time.
