Just saw this post sa feed.
โPa, gusto ko po ng iPhone.โ
And just like that, a fatherโs heart quietly breaks.
Not because his child is asking for something extravagant,
But because deep down, he fears he might not be able to provide it.
Weโve all chuckled at those viral posts.
โฑ2,500 for an iPhone 7? โSeriously ba?โ
But hidden behind those rushed comments,
Behind the misspelled words and awkward grammar,
Is a parent simply doing everything they can.
Trading what little they have.
Stretching each peso.
Desperately trying to give their child even a small taste of joy.
This isnโt really about an iPhone.
Itโs about love.
Itโs about sacrifice.
Itโs about making the best out of what life hands you.
So next time you see a comment like that,
Pause before laughing.
Hold back the judgment.
Instead, whisper a quick prayer for every parent out there
Quietly swallowing their pride,
Doing the best with what they have,
And reminding us all that love doesnโt have to come with a high price tagโฆ
to be priceless.
โPxensia po d q ksi alm yan at ska 2500 lang kasi budjet qโ
Yet, heโs still trying.
