I just want to share this story about my friends. I'm not really the outgoing, public relation-ish kind of person. I am really shy when making friends. There must be a feeling of comfort first before I am able to to share myself with others. It take years for me to open up unless you really exude that kind of comfort that would not make be feel intimidated or make me feel agitated. I have found friends along the way, and i'm lucky that although they are few, they are quality friends. You know they'll be there for you, in good times and bad.
..and there, our family suddenly was caught in a crisis. One of my loved ones had caught an illness. In our country, healthcare is very expensive. You shoulder everything when your insurance ran out. Worst, some operation/surgery cannot be done if not fully paid before the procedure. The shy person that I am, I reached out. I needed help... the family needed help. Mostly financially. Then individually, it really affects you so much. You have to pull yourself together to face this kind of situation... this is where I am most thankful of. One by one, i was not expecting that most of my friends tried to extend any help they can. (Either financially or a shoulder to cry on/lean on)
i really hope that we get through this asap. We have been raising funds..so far it isn't enough but the support i got from my friends were very touching. I really appreciate everything they did for me and for my family.
Although, the burden is kind of heavy, because I've been blessed with these kind of friends, somehow the burden becomes tolerable.
I love them so much and I realize who my real friends were. It's amazing that although i have few friends, these few friends responded in ways of a real friend. I hope they be blessed.
I'm so so grateful to have them in my life.
