As many people say, it is much better to experience difficulty as long as the work you have and the money that you earn comes in a noble way.
In a Facebook post by the netizen named JS Gervacio, he shared a photo of a grandfather who is still selling "Taho" in the street. In the photo, the grandfather can be seen having a hard time while carrying the heavy materials where his goods are placed, but it didn't stop Lolo to continue selling his 'taho'.
Meanwhile, the uploader didn't identify the grandfather. He said on his post,
“Help others, even when they can’t help you back. God please help with us.”
Many netizens then expressed different reactions over the viral post. Many of them admired Lolo for his perseverance and determination to continue working in spite of his age. While there are some of them who felt sorry for the poor situation of Lolo, saying that he should just rest in their house and he should not carrying such heavy things, especially that he is already old.
Here are some comments of the netizens:
“Lord give this old man strength thru your love…Guide him each day…”
“Dapat sa Pilipinas may Home for the Aged lalo na sa mga matatandang walang nag– aarugang kamag–anak. Sa akin lang naman ito ah.”
“Nakakadurog ng puso na makita ang mga matatanda na nagtatrabaho at nahihirapan na dapat nasa bahay lang inaalagan at pinagpapahinga, madaling madapuan ng sakit ang mga matatanda lalo na ang edad na katulad ni Tatay.”
Meanwhile, one netizen also featured his father who is also working as a 'Taho' vendor. The netizen said that he is proud and admired his father for sacrificing everything just to give them a better life.
