But what caught my attention was what one of my officemates mentioned out of the blue. She said she wants the government of the medical people to discover a cure for aids. I was caught off guard. I was a bit surprised. None of them knew what was happening with me. They dont have any idea at all as I presume. I guess that was her honest and sincere prayers though. Helping people like me. She then shared that she saw how people with aids/hiv live and it breaks her heart. I could not say a word. We all listened to her. She had a heart for people like me. It was out of nowhere. I was moved by her. As i was sitting right across her. In my mind, I was thinking "what if they all knew what im going through right now?" "What if they all know what WE have to suffer everyday"
They were planning to go out of town this weekend. As much as i would want to go with them to enjoy. I just cant. I wouldn't want them to notice my allergies that are getting so obvious. I wouldn't want to risk getting myself tired of going to an outing.
I cannot do a lot of things simply because I am HIV positive. I have to give up the things i am used to - glamorous lifestyle, parties, drinking, travel. Its God's ways for teaching me HUMILITY. I am learning it the hard way. I wouldn't want anyone suffering from HIV anymore. I think i would be able to handle the physical pain. But the emotional baggage it brings everyday is way to heavy for someone to carry every single day.
As i sit and ponder. I realized there are still people. Random people who care so much for PLHIV. I thank God for making those people realize that WE need help.
If you are reading this. And you know someone who might be at risk in getting HIV. Please tell them what they should do. A lot of people are suffering right now. And if you CARE so much for them. You wounldn't want them to be part of US. Do your part as a friend.
