How do you like the brilliant color of these orchids? They are beautiful, aren't they? I am not in a good mood today as one of my in laws misused my and my sisters trust. I confronted her about it. She pawned the jewelries in the pawnshop which are not hers but my sibling and niece. The jewelries are the inheritance from my parents. As I am still here in the Philippines, I have to sort out the problem for the owners of the jewelries who are living abroad. Trust is lost and it will take time to recover. I want to convert my negative emotion to positive and so I am posting this dancing lady photo here.

@thelme55 I'm glad she will get the money for the necklace, Thelma. You were smart to remain calm.

One of the jewelries is here already but the other one is still in the pawnshop. I made clear to my sis in law to get the money for the necklace before it will expire in a month. She said she will. My niece will come home in January and the necklace should be here by me. You can't imagine how angry I was this afternoon. I didn't shout at her but made clear that what she done was not right. I was always there to help them financially but if my trust is misused, sorry, no more help coming from me anymore. Thanks @sofssu

When trust is lost, it's something very difficult to regain. To be able to get the jewelries back, I guess you're again pulling out from your own purse to redeem them.

@thelme55 Too bad for your niece. It's so sad when a member of the family whom one is supposed to trust is the one who takes advantage of the trusting family member.

You are right @sunrisefan. No, I will not pay that as the jewelries are not mine. Only one necklace left in the pawnshop and my niece will have to get it with her own money if the culprit can't get it back.

I am sure I will @responsiveme. It was not actually my problem but as the eldest of the siblings, I am entrusted to take part especially that the owners are not at home. Yes, lovely flowers indeed.

Due to high price of commodities here that's why people are doing unexpected things I guess. Anyway, where's the dancing lady?

The habit of making Utang/debt is popular in the Philippines community. A bad habit if one can't pay. Worse if they betray relatives who trust them. Sorry the photo came late. It didn't upload immediately. I had to reduced its size before it showed up.

@thelme55 I definitely agree. Debt with interest is kicking everywhere. I think I'm lucky that my debt only comes from my siblings with no interest at all. Nice yellow dancers you have there.

It is sort out already @Sreekala. By next month, the necklace of my mother will be back in my hand before my niece who inherited the necklace, comes home from Europe. My niece knows already what happened yesterday. She was disappointed just like me.

So, what was the outcome of that problem. It's so sad, when our relatives are the ones who broke our trust because of financial scams like that.

The owner of the jewelries sent money to get them. They were the ones who inherited the jewelries from my late father. It is hard for me now to trust that person @SIMPLYD.
