WHEN do you forgive someone who has wronged you?
Immediately.
I have asked this here before but let me ask it again: How many times will you forgive someone who has wronged you?
The Good Book says not once, not seven times, not 77 times, but 777 times.
Now this: Will your love for your parents ever end?
Or, is your love for your parents endless?
The Good Book says the son will marry and he will become one with his wife.
The Good Book says the son that gets married will leave his parents.
But leaving and loving are two different things.
Both are valid acts.
But you can leave and still love.
The Good Book is crystal-clear here: Love is the foundation of everything.
How can you say you love God when you stop loving your own parents?
Very un-Christian.
I told my son the day he got married: ?Sonny, you now have a family. (He and his wife had a son before they got married.) But it only means that your family is a mere addition to your original family. Love your new family as you love your original family.?
That simple, right?
In the case, however, of Nonito Donaire Jr., boxing?s ?Filipino Flash,? it seems a different thing altogether.
His new love has seemingly altered his love for the original family.
Meaning, his love now is basically confined to his wife and he has stopped loving his parents.
Not fine by me.
Not fine by the reckoning of many others.
I mean, he left his parents, fine. But to also stop loving them is below the belt.
And what?s this I hear that Nonito has also accused his father of stealing money from him?
Was it $240?
Whether it was a mere $2 or a whopping $2 million, it doesn?t matter.
I just can?t believe that dad can steal money from his own son.
Either that dad is a jerk or a complete fool.
But I will insist Nonito?s dad is neither of the two.
For all intents and purposes, didn?t Nonito Sr. help Nonito Jr. become world boxing champion? Coach/trainer?
And now, aside from being dumped like an old rag (pray tell me, it isn?t true Nonito?), the elder Donaire gets accused as a thief? By his own son?
Hello?
A parent owes nothing to his child.
It?s the child that owes everything that he has/owns to his parent/s.
The Good Book lies not.
