Seriously, God is tired of humans. Why else would he let aweful things happen to us? We are out of His control. We are beyond his powers. He is sick of us. Well, that is at least according to my aunt's dream. She dreamt of God. She dreamt of praying to him. She said these:
I was praying to God who stood majestically before me. I was praying to Him about my family and I closed my eyes in earnest. But when I opened them, I saw God lying unconscious on the floor. I was so shocked I asked, "What happened to God?" and then a voice whispered behind me, "God is tired." It was then that I realized that I should stop depending on God and do things on my own. He is tired. I should stop and give Him a break. After all, I am not the only human here on the planet.
It was a dream, but a meaningful dream nonetheless and I do think it's quite accurate. Why else would God let bad things happen to us? The Plague, the Pig's Influenza, the Current Economic Situation that we are in, Hurricane Katrina, The Tidal Wave in Indonesia and Thailand, Terrorism, Weapons of Mass Destruction -- We cause our problems. We get what we asked for. We should solve them ourselves.
Fine. I will have to learn to control my temper. I know. It's my fault. No matter how annoying the kids were, I should have been able to control myself and let it be, but sometimes, I just can't take it anymore: lack of sleep, running out of cash, no high-paying jobs, medical expenses, etc., it's just stressful especially when you're so used to having someone else deal with those matters and all you had to do was study.
Study, study, study. It was a luxery I wish I never had. I wished that I worked while I studied, so then I would have learned how to manage my money, my job, and studies all at the same time. Doing it now at this age, is harder than it was then.
I sometimes want to blame my parents, but I know that is not right. It's wrong. So, I won't be doing that. I will instead blame myself for allowing my parents to spoil me. They didn't have to, but I did let them. I should have known better. But, I am no genius.
Had I been a genius, maybe I would have been famous by now. Right God?

just hang on
It is normal to get tired. If you find it tiring to manage your finances right now, what more if you were a 23-year old gal who serves as the breadwinner of a family of 5 with four kids under your care, but they aren't your kids at all. Believe me, friend, you would even thank your parents for giving you a good life, though it would have been a lot better if they taught you to be responsible amidst the luxuries you're cherishing then. It's just a matter of persperctive and looking at the positive side of life no matter how dark the current situation is. And of course, God is never tired of us. If he were, would He not just crush the earth and wipe the humankind? He just allows us to experience life as it is- with joy and sorrows, success and failures, love and hatred. There are indeed circumstances that do happen without any chance for us to comprehend fully. But let people who suffer have their agonies heard; for in the end, they will still opt to move forward. People who are alive are still luckier than those who died (in the physical aspect of course), for they can still shape the lives they want to have. There is only one chance for us to do the things we want to do, love the people whom we want to love, and go to places where we aim going to. Keep your spirits high, because you are human, and therefore, you are God's powerful creation.
