Problems! Everyone has problems whether big or small. Each day we encounter different problems. Just yesterday I had an unusual problem. We went to SM Marikina to watch toy story 3. i borrowed my mom's gold sandals. she told me that it was broken but i did not listen because when i tried it on, it was perfectly fine. And so we went to the mall. Luckily, we were able to park our car despite of the jam packed automobiles due to the premiere of eclipse, I believe. Before the movie started I bought my favorite yogart shake together with my ate and our "kasambahay". It was located in the second floor of the mall. It was like 8 minutes before the start of the show so after i bought the shake we immediately ran upstairs to the movie house (the movie house was in the 4th floor). As we were approaching cinema 8, my sandals suddenly broke! I did not mind it at first because time was moving and the movie will start soon. Finally we reached the entrance of cinema 8. My next problem was how am i going to walk on the stairs with my sandals broken? There were also a lot of people so we need to find vacant seats right away. i thought, i had no choice. i removed my sandals and walked inside the cinema bare foot. good thing the lights were off already so people did not notice me. we were not able to find vacant seats instead we made ourselves comfortable sitting on the stairs. When the movie ended, my real dilemma came. The lights were on already. It will be noticeable if a walk without my sandals. I can't explain how but i was able to endure walking with my broken sandals on until outside cinema 8. I texted my mom that my sandals were broken. by the way my parents also watched a movie but a different one. i was expecting that she was going to buy me a pair of slippers in the department store but instead she exchanged the sandals she was wearing with mine! so from the fourth floor of the mall until the 1st floor, i walked comfortably while she endured walking. I thanked my mom and held her hands as we walk then she told me, "tignan mo, kahit ano gagawin ng ina para sa anak." 

Why did i share my problem? It's because last Thursday we had a topic about problems. We discussed the different methods of solving problems. I think there were five methods. But i believe the most important thing to remember about our discussion was that to identify your problem first. identify whether it is the right problem or the bad problem. You'll know it is the right one if there are possible solutions and it satisfies your needs. So problem no more if your problem is not "problemable"...:))
