What did my dad mean when he wrote me this letter?

Question

Brian boy,

Good @ naaalala mo ako, Brian boy, so many times i keep on telling you to priorities things in your life. I wonder kung nagawa mo it seems u r so compuse with ur life, i feel sorry for u na hindi mo madigest ang mga paalala ko sa iyo, Brian boy spare some time by yourself, concentrate deeply, clear your head & think, evaluate things, ask ? what have i done with my life for the past _________? how did i reciprocate with my family who never gets tired of sharing almost everything, love, affection, trust, time, money and endless hope of success. Brian boy, you never value most of the things we"ve done, it hurts but that's how we feel by the way you react. I hope you will be better & focus to what you really want's to be & be realistic ,honest, attainable,

workable. Nahihirapan na akong makicommunicate sa iyo parang nag iba na mga prequency natin, naging malabo na ako sa iyo, & no matter na kahit ano pa ang ipakita namin sa iyo ay bale wala lang. Remember, i was so sick & i have to depend with other people without any knowledge how togive me a shot & medications. Okay lang yon, kaya nalaman ko nagbago ka na, maraming instances, magpapadrive ako sa iyo, kailangan pa makiusap ako, pagmaynasabi ako na it's for your own good at hindi mo gusto you just walk away, hindi mo na naisip na it's for your own good ang sinasabi ko. Mga binibili ko sa iyong supplies mo you dont care hindi alam na pinaghihirapan kong bilhin ng unti unti at ayusin sa box na halos hirap na hirap kong mabuo at mapadala sa iyo, pagbukas mo that's it hindi mo man lang naisip how did i pack & send u all those things alam mo naman may sakit ako at wala naman akong kasama dito na makatulong sa akin. Hinahanap ko lang ang gratitude mo sana & pagpapahalaga sa pinaghirapan kong maipadala sa iyo. Brian boy, sana makausap kita ng maayos bago ako tuluyang matepok, naaawa ako sa iyo dahil mapakaraming alas mo or qualities na hindi mo mautilized for your success in life. when u reach my stage of life & u think of the past u'll have all theb regret's in life, magisip kang mabuti habang may kapiraso pa akong hininga at sa guideline of success in life ay matulungan kita. All my experiences, hard work, frustrations, glory in life, recognitions, fame, wealth, marriage & downfall ay mapapagaralan mo para for your own successful journey to old age & retire wealthy, comfortablly & loved by everyone. lastly, concentrate finding a job, gamitin mo mga taong kakilala dahil ang job ang stepping stone mo. Walang lalapit sa iyo kaya kumilos ka na at ask around, wasted time will never come around, always put in your mind time is gold & gold is money & money is life. So be it! Read this ng paulit ulit & KEEP THE MOST OF IT '''''''''''''''''''----- Original Message ----love TA T A N G 2007 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Answer 1

i guess you don&#039;t understand much Tagalog. your father is concerned of you. he&#039;s not illiterate. how could you say that? your father is telling you he&#039;s sick and he&#039;s dying and wants to spend time with you before he dies.

Answer 2

mahirap ba maintindihan ang concern ng tatay mo sayo?ikaw ay isa naring ama kun pano mo iniisip na mapabuti ang anak mo ganun din ang ama mo.gusto lang nya na malagay kana sa ayos bago man lang x pumanaw.minsan kasi tayong mga anak di natin naappreciate mga simple things na binibigay ng mga magulang natin di natin pansin kasi akala natin obligasyon nila yon oo at hindi di ba?obligasyon kun tayo&#039;y mga bata pa hindi na kun sila nman dapat ang pag ukulan natin ng obligasyon lalo nat me sakit pala x.sa panahon ng pagpapamilya saka natin nabibigyan ng halaga ang mga sakripisyo ng isang magulang.bakit sa sulat nya hangga ngayon ay ikaw parin ang alalahanin nya?sana ngayon na ikaw ay tatay na din matutuhan mo sana magpahalaga hindi lang sa sarili mo kundi sa lahat ng nakakaugnayan mo.at kahit isipin ng iba na illiterate ang tatay mo di dapat sayo manggaling yon di yon dapat ikahiya bagkus ipagmalaki mo at ikaw ay  naging literate sa pagsisikap ng sinasabi mong ama na illiterate?that is something you should be proud of bryan boy.its never to late to correct mistakes it is from these mistakes one learns .hope this shed a light on you.

Answer 3

I&#039;ll be straigh up with this. I only read the first little section that your dad sent you.I couldn&#039;t finish the second part. But I did read your part though. Your dad is very illiterate. I can&#039;t understand that. Sorry that I am no help to you. Good luck finding out!(cause you need it)

Answer 4

i think that he means he love yah and dat you need to try ur best. i think

Answer 5

dont know man what language is that

Answer 6

i can&#039;t believe that you&#039;re saying you&#039;re dad is illiterate!  he is not! illiterate means he can&#039;t read or write; or lack of education.  he was capable of emailing.  

i&#039;m not quite sure what the history is behind this, but i can tell that you&#039;re dad is very concern about you.  all he wants is for you to reach out to him and realize that they&#039;re (ur family) there for you.  he obviously wants you guys to be really close.  not that you&#039;re not but it&#039;s been very diffucult to communicate with you cuz it seems like you&#039;ve been trying to push yourself away from them.

appreciate and respect your family.  when times get rough the truth is you can only count on your family so without them life is very difficult.  and before its too late!!  avoid regrets!!

good luck!

to the person that said ur dad is illiterate....don&#039;t judge a person if you don&#039;t quite know him!  the dad is sick, have some sympathy!
