My friend’s birthday is on the 26th of this month, she’ll be 28 years old and still SINGLE.
But according to her, why marry? She even posted a blog about it.
Why marry indeed?
In the Philippines setting, marriageable age among women is between the ages of 25 to 3o. When you’re 28 and still single and not in a relationship, you’re in deep trouble!
Filipino women trembles to the thought of being alone in their old days, without a companion in their twilight years.
But my aunt is 5o, she’s single, probably a virgin, not in a relationship for a long time, but she’s having a golden time with her life.
A lot of single women I know, some of them are in their twilight years, without husbands or children, but they are having a terrific life.
So to my friend whose 28 now, never worry! Why marry indeed?
While celebrating birthdays and living a terrific life, there are these two people in town whose lives unfortunately were bring to an end by gunshots.
Gunshots echoes around the town.
One is dead early morning before the May 1o election while the other one is shot dead trying to mediate a feud.
Senseless killings.
Two families in town mourning, hurting and remembering birthdays not to be celebrated anymore.
Two lives wasted by gunshots.
