What's the point of working so hard for your family

 What's the point of working so hard for your family if your health ends up paying the price?

In his homily, Fr. Dave Concepcion gave a reminder we all need to hear.
“Hindi kayo habang buhay na malakas. Feeling niyo lang yun.”
We work long hours, skip meals, lose sleep, and ignore the pains we feel because there are bills to pay and people depending on us.
Until our bodies can no longer keep up.
And the money we've worked so hard to earn might end up going to hospital bills and medication.
There's nothing wrong with wanting to give our families a better life. But we also need to know when to slow down.
At the end of the day, our families need more than what we can provide.
They need us healthy and present, too.
