The miserable life

On a saturday night of October 2, I watched MMK (Maalaala Mo Kaya) and it makes me realized how really blessed I am. The episode was all about the child whose living under the bridge with his mother who cannot be able to speak. On their situation it is clear that financial was their first problem but aside from that there is unusual problem that they might think that it is not important because for them they just need to eat in order to live in this world. The child doesn’t know his name and he doesn’t also know the name of his mother. He was just given a name by his friends under the bridge “mojacko” and his mother “pipe” because his mother cannot able to speak. See how complicated their situation was, I don’t know how they can live in this world without knowing their names, I mean if I were in their place it will be so hard for me, living without a name. Mojacko and his mother “pipe” doesn’t know how to read, count, and to write because both of them never sent to school due to financial problem. Mojacko do like cleaning the jeepneys and many more for the return of small money. His mother was a prostitute and it was not an issue for Mojacko even though he knows it, beside he love his mother that no matter what happen he will not leave his mother alone. Being prostitute of his mother was a reason also so his mother cannot be able to give him a name because his mother doesn’t know who was the father of Mojacko. I was very sad while watching that episode, their life was so very difficult, very complicated like it was full of problems. I really realized how blessed I am for not having a life like them. I was very thankful to God for choosing me to have this kind of life I am having right now and I wish someday they will experience it also.
