Madalas madaling tawaging mabuting tatay basta may pagkain. Pero ang nanay? Konting madungis o mababang grade ng anak, agad masamang ina na.Kada sigaw minus, kada toy plus, kada gadget double minus? Kung may honor ang anak, may “best mom award,” pero kapag wala—worst mom ka na agad?

Pero totoo, walang sukatan. Walang points system, walang award. At habang hinahanap mo kung paano maging “mabuti,” sarili mo ang nauubos.

Kung nagdududa ka ngayon, tandaan: mabuti kang ina. Hindi kailangan perpekto. Yung pagod, puyat, at tawa ng anak mo—iyan ang patunay. Inhale, exhale. You’re doing enough.

Him: Mag kakwarenta kana!!

Me: Awang-awa ako sa sarili ko.

I’m a mom of twins, and for a long time, I didn’t have work or my own source of income. Wala rin akong natatanggap na pera mula sa asawa ko (Trust issue kasi dati nalugi ako sa business ko at nabaon sa utang), at hanggang ngayon dala ko pa rin ang bigat ng mga utang ko. Just recently, I started a new career, and I’m holding on to the hope that this will finally be the start of something better for me and my children.
I’ll be turning 37 next month. At this age, I imagined myself to be more stable, but the reality is different. I still find myself asking for support financially from my parents, in the middle of all the guilt and sadness, but still I feel so blessed—because they never say no especially when it comes to financial needs of my twins.(Medical Needs and everything we needs and wants)
It’s heavy on my heart, but at the same time, I carry a prayer with me every day—that someday I’ll be able to stand on my own two feet, and more than that, give back to my parents a hundred times all the love and support they’ve given me. They’re so important to me, and as they get older, I just want to make them proud.
