I AM NUTTY AS A FRUITCAKE

Yes, absolutely I am nutty as fruitcake. In your mind, maybe I taste yummy but no, absolutely I feel crazy. Aside from this kind of unwanted feeling (I should suppose to start my day right) but I was in the state of devastation. If I don’t know how to control my emotions, I may land in a mental hospital. Dress in pink gown surrounded with other mentally deranged patients.  Oh well, I don’t intend to anyway.

The bible teaches us to be generous. When people come to me and ask help, I embraced them right away, negating my own needs sometimes.  I believe in good KARMA but I am one big fool fan of good KARMA. What did I get of being a generous? A huge headache-too large for my small head to absorb. I tell you, generosity may cause you harm sometimes or even put your name in vain.

A few months ago, a good friend of mine approached me that I’ll get her an iPhone with Globe under my name.  I told her “no” because I know at the end that I’ll be the one to suffer the consequences. She kept on persisting and insisting that her boyfriend will be the one to pay for the bills there being he occupies one of the highly top caliber position. The bf even called me over the Avaya phone to get one for her girlfriend. Nor tell Miss M about this. I may be gullible to believe on this but the thing is: I trust them.  

After few months, I was shocked to receive a text message demanding me to pay something Php 54,000.00. My God! Where in the hell will I get that amount to pay the bills? I did not even use the phone. I have only Sun Cellular phone that I am paying at Php 350/month. I am very stingy with my budget. I have two beautiful daughters that I have to send to college. When I talked to the bf the other day, he washed his hands that he had nothing to do with it. I had my son checked from Globe about the plan. It was terminated already. The Php 54,000.00 is the accumulated interest of the monthly bills that were not paid.

The conversations last March 2011 still leave a trace in my brain. It leaves me to the second thought, that you can never trust a gun even in your pocket. After enjoying the phone for couple of months, she left me a doo-doo. WTF! I am still expecting that the bf will be true to his statements that he’ll find a way to reach his gf abroad. Whether she is in a faraway land, I hope she has still conscience and look back to the mess she left me. We can never escape problems unless we face them and solve them.

This is one lesson learned. Never be too generous. God knows Judas not pay. Yet I still believe there is a bad KARMA for this. I said to God, “Let vengeance be yours my Lord.” God always do justice for me.
