My colleague was acting restless yesterday, so I asked him if he was alright.
He said he was, but he kept behaving as though something was bothering him.
I called him and told him that I know him too well not to notice when something is wrong.
That was when he opened up.
He said his head felt like it was about to burst, and I could see tears welling up in his eyes.
He had received a call that his mother was seriously ill.
Then another call informing him that his brother's wife was seriously ill.
Another call came from his cousin, whose landlord had given them a quit notice.
He also got a call from a friend who said they didn't even have food to eat.
All of these people needed financial help from him, but he had no money to send.
So much chaos all at once.
People are going through so much these days. Many are fighting battles silently and carrying burdens heavier than we can imagine.
It is well.
Those days, as children, you ate whatever was served in the house, no negotiations, no special requests.
One pot, one meal, and somehow everyone was fine.
But these days, if care is not taken, a parent might end up cooking different meals for different children at the same time.
