SHUT UP! YOU’RE IRRITATING! I

-

n a large box you can hear different noises playing loud and low. Within that noisy box you can hear different stories, stories that interests you, but may leave a scar on someone’s heart. It brings enjoyments, yes it’s true! But will that enjoyment can really help you?

A formally dressed man who looks scared and alarmed stood inside the box covering his two ear’s. I stood there also and noticed “Does this man does not enjoy the enthrallin­g sound around?” With an inquisitiv­e mind I stepped a little closer. It seems like all the noise is traveling to his ears without any hesitation. Then I look around, wondering where the noise comes from. Then my eyes laid to meat the big corner of the box roars a huge crowd of impure man. Impure man with benighted soul. They do not care what’s coming out from their mouths. They throw and throw their aggravatin­g voices to the ears of the formally dressed man. They have careless mouths that no one could Stop! Then to my prying heart I asked them “Why do you throw unacceptab­le thoughts to that man?” They got inflamed because of my innocent question .... They didn’t like what I just asked ....

“That man is a monster, no he is a gangster, he’s not good in acting, he stole our money!” Hmmm... They’re hurting that man, maybe not Physically but emotionall­y, But wait... Why would they say this? Is it because it’s true? Is that man really is a monster? I want to know.. I want to know the truth behind this confusing box. Why is there who hurts someone in a secret way but indeed is not really a secret because it always flies into the ears of the one being talked to. Our world... our continent... our country.. our Philippine­s ... is always experienci­ng this, “critics everywhere” I can’t even imagine how we Filipinos could stick into that. Then in time I figured out the whole story, the man that criticize is not really a bad person.

Let us not accuse those who did nothing when we do not know the whole truth. Our country is growing like a huge box full of noises that may lead into the destructio­n of our own country. To all those who have hard time criticizin­g, come on! Know the whole story first. It is not only for the benefit of yours but also to the good of our country.
