Yakapin Mo Ang Iyong Pagkamali


"Matuto kang YAKAPIN ang iyong PAGKAMALI. And then he started EMBRACING his computer."

I already told myself "Enough of this malapropism inanities ..." So I vowed I was not going to touch this subject with a ten-foot pole but the image's effect on me ... just send me to some deep thoughts ... the statement above and the image just make sense.

Pagkamali ba ang computer? Hindi naman ... so why the statement? Pag sinabi bang "yakapin ang iyong pagkamali ... does it mean that you have take it literally as in yakapin mo? Sa katunayan if you are you going to scrutinize the image ... you will see na parang nadagdagan pa yata ang kanyang love at "kahibangan"at pagkaaddict sa computer at paglaro ng ML games. Di ba?

Hindi ... there's another story behind the story in the image. Matalinhaga nga pero totoo. Story ito ng isang grown up adult ... at narealize na niya ang kanyang pagkamali. Istorya ito nang pagbangon at paghaharap sa buhay ... at bagong pag-asa pagkatapos ng ilang taong pagkalugmok.

Kuwento ito ng isang 27 years old na napabayaan na niya ang kanyang mga mahal sa buhay. Ang kanyang BUHAY na walang saysay at walang BUHAY ... dahil kung ang iba ay nalulong sa druga ... siya naman ay nalulong sa mobile legends. Akala niya dati hindi naman ito druga ... ang mga laro sa computer are nothing but harmless and safe past times. Yon ang akala niya

Yes, it is true ... wholesome at tame ang larong ito ... but anything that exceeds the boundaries of being normal is abnormal.

If you are past 18 and mobile legends prevent you from finding a decent job ... that is abnormal. If you spend the wee hours of the morning pounding your computer ... unmindful whether others are sleeping or not .... something is irregular. Much more if you don't care about electric bills ... kasi hindi naman ikaw ang nagbabayad?

If you care about your fellow ML player (na hindi mo naman kilala ... na nanggagaling sa kung saang lupalop ng mundo ...) more than your family something is wrong somewhere. If you worry about them at ayaw mong mabitin sila dahil gusto pa nilang maglaro ... tapos magagalit ka sa kung sino ang kumakatok sa pinto dahil disturbo lang? Malay mo emergency yon ... tapos sisihin mo ang maid dahil binuksan niya? Hindi ba abnormal yon?

And it becomes a serious problem when these harmless hobbies affect his relationship, even his health lalo na kung lagi siyang puyat at wala ng pahinga. Hindi na siya makapagluto, palaging nagmamadali. Irritable pa siya sa mga konting ingay pag siya ay natutulog dahil naghahabol siya ng konting pahinga para pagbalik ng mga kaibigan niya ready ulit siya sa magdamagang sigawan at pukpokan ng keyboard. Dahil naubos ang oras sa laro ... minsan wala nang panahon kumain at nagtitiis na lang sa Lucky Me.

Remember ang addiction ay hindi lang sa druga ... there is such a thing as NON-SUBSTANCE ADDICTION - like gambling, sex, pornography, food, the internet, shopping, gaming, casino hopping paghanga sa artista ... the list goes on and on.

One thing that describes all addiction is total LOSS OF CONTROL - loss of control sa sarili at lahat ng iyong ginagawa. The urge is irresistible ... the more you fight it ... you find yourself losing in the end.

He has lost control of his discipline and relationships ... wala na siyang panahon sa kanyang pamilya. He has lost control of his inner self ... may sarili na siyang mundong ginagalawan. He lost control of his temper ... mainitin palagi ang kanyang ulo. He has lost control of his common sense ... hindi na niya alam ang importante at hindi. Palagi na lang siya ang tama at hindi niya mawari bakit hindi siya maintiendihan ng iba ... eh gusto lang niyang mag-enjoy and have a happy life. And worst palagi siyang may hinahanap - there's an unquenchable thirst inside him na uhaw at hindi napapawi ng kahit ano pa man. Isang void na kailangang punuan.

Sa kanyang pagka-untog ... muli siyang babangon at babalik ... kasi NIYAKAP niya ang kanyang pagkamali. I-welcome natin siya at YAKAPIN natin siya ulit. And this time ... I hope he has learned his lessons.
