‼️LET'S LEARN FROM THIS, KABAYAN.
Kuya Ramon was an OFW in Saudi Arabia for 21 years. He had a good job and a large income, but he sacrificed himself for his family: he forgot about getting married himself, and instead spent his earnings putting his siblings and nephews/nieces through school.
In December 2018, he returned to the Philippines due to severe body pain and an inability to work anymore. At 61, he deserved to rest. But when his remittances stopped, the very family he spent everything on abandoned him. Today, Kuya Ramon is homeless around Luneta, with no proper shelter and often, nothing to eat.
💁♂️LIFE LESSONS:
1. Don't deplete yourself. It's not wrong to help, especially family, but always save something for your own future.
2. Invest and save. We are not strong forever. What will happen when you can no longer work?
3. Prioritize your own security. Helping others should not lead to your own ruin.
💁♂️The realizations are simple, but they can save your future.
