Today I cried a lot and it hursts so bad. It was the type of cry that goes with a heavy heart. I was shouting at my room because I felt so miserable. I thought my day was doing well because I was able to accomplish a lot of tasks at hand.
I drew, painted, cut those illustrations, and arranged them in order. The moment I saw my work I felt so accomplished. It was then when I found out over social media (Facebook) that someone was quoting me over an issue. It would have been alright if it were all true, unfortunately those were just mere allegations.
The one who posted about what I said was Louisse. We were childhood friends because we grew up on the same church. Since she is younger from me, I treated her accordingly. When she reached the legal age, I knew she was dating someone, it was our pastor's son. I just kept quiet because it really has nothing to do with me.
The family of the guy were close friend of ours. He kept teasing me to his sons. I was vocal that I have no interest in any of them. I never knew that it ignited a sense of animosity between Louisse and I, and her mother Tita Liza and I. My respect to them was in good faith and whatever they have been through, I tried supporting them through prayers.
Going back to what has happened, Louisse posted that the members of the church were treated in a negative way. Of course, I was shocked. I was totally misquoted. Last Wednesday night, my parents (my dad being a pastor) asked how the family of Tita Liza had been doing. Tita Liza said after a meeting that was held at the church after a Sunday Service that they would be living our church because of some issues that were ignited by her. A week later the church made a response. The church body wanted everyone to heal first.
In response to my father's question, this Karen said that it seemed the other family were waiting for my father to speak to them. My dad then said, "let us wait for the Lord's wisdom-- for God's discernment". In addition to what my father said, "my dad is just a pastor, he is not the Lord so let us wait what the Lord will tell them".
I never knew that Karen is such a snake that she made up a story and shared it to the other family. I just found about it then on Louisse's post. Shocked, I tried telling myself I should think rationally before making something. I just decided then to respond at her post and telling her that she totally received the wrong message. She has the guts then to laugh at my comment. What a nerve!
It was just an hour after that she decided to delete her post after finding out that I tagged both my parents on her post. She chickened out. Whenever I actually deal with someone, I do not settle it over social media. I really told her to act professional instead.
Few minutes after the heated discussion Louisse and I had, I sent a message to Karen telling her not to butt in someone's issue because it would just ruin relationships. She responded then by blatantly telling me that a lot of people in our church hated me because of my mouth. After sending me that response, she blocked me.
My father, our pastor was calling her then but she was not answering any of his calls. Aggravated by the situation, I really tried to calm down myself by crying in front of my dad. I only then came to such realization when my father told me I should not cry over them because for one they are not credible enough. Another thing is that Karen has this habit of making stories causing relationships to end.
My parents and I talked about the issue and my mom consoled me by telling me they're actually not worth it. Indeed, no amount of revenge can make me satisfy. It will just be God's hands that would work on all of us.
By the way, that is Sunny and I. Just by looking at her it made me feel calm. I am blessed to have this furry friend.
