Status: SINGLE MOM




The word "immoral" is normally used to describe persons or actions. In a broader sense it can be applied to groups or corporate bodies, beliefs, religions, and works of art. To say that some act is immoral is to say that violates some moral laws, norms or standards.

I have this experience that really hurts me and I know that can not be easily forgotten by my broken heart.
Being a single parent is like having a low position in our society, some may understand but mostly, others will mocked and judge you.

Immorality, the worst word I heard in my entire life, in whatever way you want it to say, it still hurts my emotion, to understand that people have different way of thinking is hard for me to do during that time.
I remember, over a year ago, I was applying in one of the supermarket in Pasig. I go with their process, from screening up to the several interviews and examination in just one day. I did pass those processes but as the General Manager interviewed us, I failed because of my status; they can’t accept me because their establishment has a code of conduct to be followed.

That’s the worst day ever in my life. It’s their rule. They have to follow.
That day, questions came into my mind, why these things happened to me, questioning God why I am in this situation crossed my mind, is in it discrimination?

We cannot please anybody.  We can’t control their way of thinking. Life must go on, in every chapter of our life we should get the lesson to be learned.
