Ma knows best

"Mommy knows best......".
That's what my mom always teaches me, and frankly, naniniwala ako.....

Bihira kami magaway ng nanay ko, but when we do, she almost always wins(kung hindi, draw).
Katulad kanina, nagaway kami kasi i needed to research a lot of stuff for judo(more on that some other day), pero di ako pinayagan kasi maraming kailangang gawin. In short, uminit ulo ko pumunta na lang ako sa kwarto ko, still convinced na tama ako. After all, what i'm doing is for my scholarship. After some time, i decide to watch tv. 30 minutes later, biglang dumating ang nanay ko. She said, "Kung ayaw mong tumulong...lumayas ka na lang. Pag naabutan kita na ganyan pa rin pag balik mo, hihilahin kita palabas." Natural na sa akin na pag masabihan ng ganon, tatahimik na lang at susunod kay Ma. She made me work with her on some bedsheets na dapat i-deliver on friday. One could see in her eyes na seryoso siya sa ginagawa niya, na she wouldn't hesitate to throw me out kung hindi ako magaayos ng ugali. And in that period of time she made me realize that it was perfectly okay to work on something para sa ikabubuti ko, pero kailangang hindi mawala ang isip ko sa kasalukuyan. The future can always wait, but the present is ever coming and going. Once it's gone, it's gone. If i did want to work on that scholarship, i had to fix myself in the present for the responsibilities that will bring in the future... Mama always did know best.......
