i was beyond irritation last week when i was buzzed by someone, whom i was hoping would never hear from anymore. he was, as usual, intrusive and self-absorbed. He interrogated me whether i have filed for the case i was supposed to have attended to for the longest time. because as he said, "it seems to be taking time." (the gall. i swear.)
what totally angered me was the callousness of it, the "self-interest" spelled in CAPS and the probing that made me feel that, i, am delaying things and that i did not save enough to start it.
yes, i did not have money for it; thus, i had to look for funds. thankfully, i was able to find the means but doing so prevents me now to say no to several work offers.
what floored me (and still makes me fume now) is making me feel so obligated to file it. i answered him back, "if it seemed so urgent for you, why didn't you file it yourself?"
these are some times when i would readily argue against the saying, "you will not experience pain, pang-aapi, pagmamaltrato and anger unless you allow people to hurt you, look down on you or treat you like s*it."
This is NOT true at times. there are just evil people around. you don't allow them to be bad to you but they are just that. evil.

hang in there tita pie...let him wait. baka matutunan din nya ang ibig sabihin ng patience :P
kaya nga when he asked, "what should i do from my end?"
i curtly replied, "you, like me, should wait patiently."
(bigla akong natututong sumagot ng pabalang sa totoo lang.)
