A netizen recently shared a bittersweet childhood memory with relatives exclusion, saying, “Hindi naman pala kami imbitado hehe.”
Recently, the Facebook page “sadtitle” shared a heartbreaking post from Lawrence Javier Sibayan about his bittersweet childhood memory. The post circulated online and elicited reactions from the internet users.
In his story, Lawrence recalled a time when he and his younger brother assumed they were invited to an overnight swimming trip with their relatives. Being just a child of around eight years old, he excitedly packed and prepared, believing he was part of the plan.
While waiting at a nearby store to borrow some snacks, the brothers spotted their relatives loading into the vehicle. Thinking they’d wait, they signaled for the group to pause. To their shock, the car drove off, leaving them behind.
The young siblings were left standing there, snacks in hand, trying to process what just happened. Though no one outright told them they weren’t invited, the situation became painfully clear.
Sibayan shared his thoughts on how life can be different when one lacks financial means or influence. He emphasized the importance of striving for personal and family success.
The netizen concluded by reminding everyone to pick valuable lessons from life’s hardships, understanding that even the most painful experiences happen for a reason.

“Hindi naman pala kami imbitado hehe
Akala namin kasama kami ng kapatid kong lalaki.
Sobrang bata pa namin noon siguro 8 lang ako. May overnight swimming ang mga ka-relatives, kaya nag-prepare na kami ng kapatid ko.(di ko alam sino nagsabi na kasama kami basta pinag handa nalang kami ng gamit at pinapapunta dun sa meet-up place ng ganitong oras)
Pumunta muna kami sa tindahan kasi mangungutang kami ng snacks—mga chichirya.
Habang nasa tindahan kami, nakita namin na nasa sasakyan na sila. Nasenyasan pa namin ng “wait lang” kasi nga nangungutang pa kami. Hahaha.
Tapos, dumaan lang yung sasakyan. Tinignan lang namin ng kapatid ko habang palayo na sila.
Hindi kami nakasama.
hirap naman nga sa side nila na sabihing “ineng , tutoy, di naman kayo kasama, uwi na ulit kayo “
naawa lang ako sa kapatid ko haha di ko alam kung tanda nya pa
Doon ko narealize na kapag mahirap ka pala, posible na iba ang magiging trato sa’yo ng tao. Pero pag may pangalan o pera ka, panigurado di ka mawawala sa listahan nila.
Yun ang realidad ng buhay. Kaya dapat ang bawat isa ay nagsusumikap, lalo na kung kayo-kayo lang ang sandalan ng isa’t isa. Kapag puro angal ka lang at di ka gumagawa ng paraan, matatapakan ka ng matatapakan.
ang bawat karanasan natin sa buhay ay may aral, siguraduhin mong pinupulot mo.
No hate at all. Everything happens for a reason sabi nga ng Lord.”
