I'm lost in bohol

Whenever I can read / hear the word Bohol, there will always be one thing that flashes inside my mind. The most unforgettable experience I had at Bohol. A really bad experience. Grrrr

I was only 6 years old back then when we had our vacation at Bohol. I can still remember those times that I am having so much fun being with my cousins. All is according to what's planned until one day... 


The Story...
When we're at the house of my aunt at Danggay, all of them were very busy watching TV. I was so eager to go home since boredom was killing me. I approached my Dad (Grand Father), telling, "gusto na ko muuli de (I want to go home dad)" but he refused, saying "hulaton sa nato sila ante nimo mahuman tan'aw ug TV (Let's just wait for your aunt to finish watching TV)". Sigh!! I have no other options but to follow my lolo.  I didn't noticed that I have fallen asleep, when I woke up, I can't find anybody on the house. There's no one in there. Neither my aunt. I panicked, hurriedly went outside and later found that my lolo's car wasn't there already. I ran towards the direction of our vacation house, hoping that I will be able to see them still on the road, but I did see nothing.. Oh Crap! With my knees already itching from a supahfastrunninglikeflash, I stopped and sat beside the road, endlessly crying and shouting, WHY THE FUCK YOU B*TCHES FORGOT ABOUT ME!! just kidding.!.. 

To whom will I ask for help? What will I do next? I don't have any idea on what's my next move and I don't even know a single person out there.. HOPELESS!! Pag minamalas ka nga naman. hehehe.!

What's next? a good Samaritan headed my way, helped me and let me hitch on his bike (motorcycle). I feel so much relief when I finally saw my lolo's car coming towards us. 

At Panglao beach way back 90's. Nothing to do with the story.
Lesson: 
Do not sleep until you're back home. :))

Reflection:
- some times in our life, we will deal on a situation that will test how strong are we spiritually?  
How will this kind of situation (or similar situation) affect our faith in God.? This experience will always remind me that God is everywhere, that he will always be there to help us especially in times of trouble. This also shows that there are still good people around the world willing to lend a hand to those who's in need. A good samaritan. Indeed..
