It's my first year in high school. I would say my mom and my new home has been my only family I've got. And I thank God.. every moment for having them! I could never hoped for any better. It has been the best, having a mom to love me so much. Cares for me so much. Treats me as her own. Giving me the best education. Giving me the freedom since young, and having the best for everything!
However, I still had to know why my parents left me. I had to know what went wrong. That was when my mom told me the truth of the whole story.
Right after I was born, my biological mom had an addiction to gambling. She gambled more than what she had, so bad that she started getting extra from loan sharks. That was when the fights started. My father was not very rich himself. He's just a sales person at a second hand car shop. So as the loan piles up and not being able to return, she had to run away. That's when she left for Taiwan to get a job to return what she owes.
During the first year, I was placed in a nanny's home from 8am to 9pm daily while my father works. But I cried every single day because I was beaten at the nanny's home. I was definitely ill-treated there, but my father had no other choices since he has to work. Nobody could take care of me then. I was sick and thin, not having the nutrition a 2 year old girl needs.
Later that year, the loan sharks were frustrated chasing for their returns. My father was worried if I get abducted in change for the money, so he find the nearest cousin he got to adopt me immediately. That was when I was brought to Penang and be given to a different family...And that was when I was seperated from my family and my siblings to start a new life..
Summary - Would you trade the money, happiness and family THAT YOU HAVE TODAY and put it in on the table thinking that YOU MAY HAVE A CHANCE TO WIN & LIVE RICH tomorrow! Will you take the chance?
or Is it really worth it?..

Not a single chance! Nothing is worth more than a happy family!
I understand that when an addicted gambler sit on the table, those numbering are worth more than anything else. At that moments, they got no family nor kids in their minds, just numbers!
Sigh... sometimes someone just don't learnt the lessons. It's been published publicly in newspaper and advertisement about gambling kills, but they just dont give a damn.
Hey Cheng Yee
Hui Jen here
I totally agree that family is one of the most important things in our life. Sometimes thing do happen and we don;t even know how to say..
but u know
The best thing about your self is that you can choose a life where u are going to. Knowing that that road has been crossed b4.. :D
Glad to hear from you again:D
You are taking a risk by baring your soul here but I agree that gamblers do not realise what they are doing... or rather, they dont know how to get out of it. That's where I think professional help steps in but that doesnt completely turn a person around.
Its probably one person's motivation to help her/himself and some underlying events in the background.
