Tight Times

Mamang says these are tight times, so we’ve got to be tough. There’s no use of
complaining, only good sense in being thankful for what we still can have.

I used to have two eggs for breakfast. Now, I can have only one and not every
day at that. But I’m glad I still have eggs to eat. I used to make my chocolate
drink really chocolatey, with three heaping spoonful of chocolate powder.

I eat my eggs slowly now, and drink my chocolate even more slowly. It is
strange how my chocolate and eggs taste yummier these days!

Papang says these are tight times, so we’ve got to be smart. Gold is not out
there; we’ve got to find it in here.

He lost his job. So he works inside the house instead…….fixing things,

cleaning things, and helping our neighbors to fix their things too.

When Mamang comes home from work. Papang puts her feet up on the couch.
While he kneads her feet, we bring her ice-cold water to drink and some rice
cake to eat.

We used to go to the mall every Saturday or Sunday. Now, we stay at home

instead and draw pictures or play the guitar, or dance with Mamang or garden
with Papang.

Today is Mamang’s birthday. Because we couldn’t buy her gifts, we made our
own gifts instead.

I drew a picture of her in a long, golden yellow gown with sampaguita flowers
for a crown and a bi, red heart all around.

Manong strummed and sang her a song while Papang danced with her. Papang
twirled her around, then brought her up close, and her gently as Mamang

clasped in her hand the bunch of sampaguita Papang gave her from his little
plot of land.

Tiyay Gracia, our neighbor knocked to thank Papang for fixing her grocery
store locks. She bought us some things to ------a birthday cake for Mamang, a
big pack of chocolate drink powder, and, would you believe, two dozen eggs?!

Day after day, it went on like that -----neighbors asking for help with fixing
their things and neighbors coming back, giving us things we lacked.

Day after day, we went on like that ----- finding the good in what we had.
being grateful for our blessings, and sharing the good with others.

Soon enough, the tight times were over. Papang found a better-paying job.
This time, he fixes people’s things right from our very own shop!
