When Two Ladies Quarrel
By Carlo G. Soldevilla
Written on June 6, 2018 (My mom’s birthday)

When two (2) ladies quarrel, it must not be because of ‘the same person’ whom they both love..
But that they just fight as a matter of principle .

When they don their boxing gloves,
Their displaced anger must be toward the person whom they hate..(like kicking the dog?-G-d forbid- when one gets ‘mad’?)

…to give the other person the deepest hurt
As a way of vengeance if not self defense (this must be done right away).

“Here’s a jab for you, Mocha…in defense of my family and of our name.
Receive it ‘in the name of love’ I express it this way, rather than making a peace offering like dove.”

“Kris, you hit my nose… Kris, I’m just being me. Here’s my southpaw stance or style and I give you this jab, too. Receive it too, it will be good for you…

…At least we’ve expressed ourselves in this bout and after this, can we have that the nod for peace like what we do during the mass?”

After the boxing bout, Kris had a broken jaw and mocha’s nose bled.
The bell rang…the boxing ended. The judge’s decision was a tie.

Then they both smiled to each other, and embraced like little children who promised to be at peace with each other again.

Morale of the story: There must be boxing gloves in each barangay hall in the Philippines?
