Out Hut, I have to say was on fire since my heart that night was burning with so much anger to a relative who mistreat my parents, my family and my family's name.
I don't usually blog when angry. I don't like to share negative vibes. I always try to write sensibly but when i can't hold myself longer i would blew up.
We live in a neighborhood where there are loads of distant relatives. I have heard about my uncle whom 'everybody' in the family described as arrogant, conceited and egocentric. He was my mother's cousin. I would smile at him for times i would meet him but he won't smile back. That is his character so i thought. But i respect him. Respect is such a big word for me.
Last night, all the respect i have for him lost the instant he verbally attacked my parents and family. I understand he was drunk but bombarding on my parents because you are under the influence of alcohol is a lame excuse! I heard foul words he said against me but i don't mind, i wont care. I got furious when my family and my parents were lay on the line and i can't do anything because confronting an intoxicated man would make me look like a fool. He would never understand how much i feel but i am deeply hurt.
I know this is another fire in our hut and that God is working on things i don't understand. I pray i will soon understand and that i would be able to forgive. Forgiving someone who hurt my family isn't easy for me.

i kind of relate to what you're feeling....you'll be able to forgive just give yourself some time to heal and keep on praying, understanding and respecting :)
Yan tlga ang problema sa mga taong nglalasing kahit ano lng ang nasasabi, show respect on him if he deserve it. Nako ayaw na ayaw ko nang lasing na tao hehehe..
whew!that is one sad and infuriating incident sis..good thing you kept your cool..kudos to you for not letting your anger get the best of you..its better to let your heat out in here..i bet you felt better after you made this post..it is in a way an outlet to ease the anger inside you..
I hope you're feeling much better now, Niko. There will be good relatives and bad ones. We used to live with a bad relative while we were growing up, and it was the worst experience of our lives. When we part ways in 2006, all of us felt like our prayers had been answered. Today, that relative is living a miserable life. I'm not saying we should be happy for what happens to people who mistreat us. It's just that God has a way of punishing those who belittle others.
oh somehow i can relate. i have those kinds of relatives too! after borrowing money from my mom - they would still say harsh things toward us just to get sympathy and worst, they want us to prioritize their needs over us - eh ayaw naman ata magtrabaho! juice ko talaga...
i hope you feel better now ^_^ be happy always

That' s very frustrating!He doesn't deserve the respect that you're showing towards him,Niko!Just like you,I don't care of what others think about me as long as they are not stepping on my feet pero pag ginalaw nila ang magulang ko, that's a different story!!
I hope you feel better now,Niko!Hugs!!
Mare koy, my relatives have done so many bad things to me and my family, and those were actually unforgivable, but, you can't be happy if you keep anger in your heart. Let it go and live your life to the fullest. You cannot find peace and happiness once you are mad at someone. That's what I always think. I am sorry it happened to you and your family, but that is life. When people are jealous, they tend to do things they will regret. I could understand you lost your respect for him and it's a normal reaction on your side. But, if God can forgive all the people who have sinned, we are only human. You don't have to be smiley face at him, but a civil treatment would suffice. I assure you, you will be happier that you forgave those who've done you wrong...Goodluck...
