My Pledge

Published by B at 11:23 am under Forgotten

My niece needs to have her operation soon. I really wanted to help but can’t do much with regards to the financial aspect. And things are not going well with my family either. My dad and sister seem to always clash these days and every discussion they have always ends up in an argument. You see I’m not much of the praying type and I don’t go to mass on Sundays. But I try my best not to step down on anyone and I try not to do bad against other people or do things that could harm or degrade anyone or anything, not intentionally that is. So, last night I said a short but deep prayer for my niece, my family and myself. I pledged not to smoke again. I’ll just finish this last pack that I have and then I’ll stop. I started smoking when I was in college. And then stopped in 2004 and then started smoking again just a couple of months ago. Yeah I know, sayang yung 4 years. But hey, I’m now quitting again and I hope this time it’s for good. I think I can do it, I mean I’ve done it before and I’ll do it again. They don’t have a definite date yet for the operation but next week they’ll be talking to her doctors and decide on it. I really hope and pray that everything goes well.

    Buge, I hope the operation goes well. It is so hard when any member of your family gets sick - especially the children. Sometimes you can’t help but start questioning why it has to happen to them.

    It also becomes so hard when you want to help financially but can’t for one reason or another. It’s good, though, that your prayers have more weight than any money you can spare. Believe that God will answer your prayers.

    By the way, congratulations for making a commitment to stop smoking. I’m sure you will not regret your decision.

    Prayers for your niece Buge.

    Rest assured God is always watching, my Mom will always tell us that God will surely answer every prayer if you do good to others and just be in the right path, He will never forsake you.

    Good luck with the quitting. Good for you, you finally gave up smoking.
