Traffic investigators arrived at a scene of an accident and saw a car that had collided head-on with a big tree with two dead people inside, a man and a woman.

They couldn't find any witnesses, but there was a monkey, apparently domesticated, standing near the wreckage. More surprisingly, it appeared that the monkey could communicate by sign language.

The chief investigator then interrogates the animal: "Did you see what happened here?" The monkey nods in assent.

What were these two doing before the collision? The monkey held an imaginary bottle in his hand and tilted his head up and appears to drink from the bottle.

Aha, so they were drinking! What else were they doing? The monkey puckered his lips and made smacking sounds with them.

They were kissing? What else? The monkey made grunting sounds as he moved his pelvis forward and back several times.

They were having sex? No wonder they ran into that tree! What about you, monkey, what were you doing at that time?

The monkey held his hands forward, grips an imaginary steering wheel, makes a broom broom sound, and makes a turning motion left and right.

A spat could develop between a parent and child- this happens quite often making in a normal scenario. In most cases, both parties would opt to make the affair a private affair. They prefer not to to watch their linen on public.

Such was the initial stance Wes and his real mom would take on the onset. When the impostor mom arrived, all hell broke loose. At the behest of Lotis, Wesley would face the media to make the conflict a fall guy for Wes' subpar performance at the US championship. In her own words, Wesley's mom would conspire with others to destroy her own kid. An allegation that would go against and beyond reason for what kind of mother would want harm to befall his child. The one with the criminal mind perhaps but Leny is a CPA- a most unlikely profile of a scheming and willing principal of a crime.

Leny would go public to defend herself from such malicious accusations. She would then go mum to prevent the fire from catching further wind and spreading . The only offense I could fathom from her end was as an accessory- i.e. protecting her son from further prosecution.

Leny would acquit herself well during that chessdom interview. Lotis charges backfired like a boomerang hitting her right at the temple. She would convince Wesley to condemn his mother on public via his facebook account. Wesley would willingly obliged like a drugged zombie.

The spell casted upon Wesley would continue up to this day. Lotis would take on the limelight as surrogate mother accompanying Wesley on his foray enjoying all the perks while the true mother (father and siblings included) would live on misery- Wesley would not mind if they existed or not as he goes about his day.

<Is Wesley taking on the right journey?>

I say he will come to the crossroad of his life sooner or later.

And when that time comes, it will be his decision and his alone.

I say he will come to the crossroad of his life sooner or later.>

I agree.

Let me quote Mrs Eleanor <“When you adopt the standards and the values of someone else … you surrender your own integrity,” >

There are two part in life, the crossroads, the should and the must. Everyday, we get to choose.

<When we choose Should, we’re choosing to live our life for someone or something other than ourselves. The journey to Should can be smooth, the rewards can seem clear, and the options are often plentiful.>

The counterpoint:

< Must is different. Must is who we are, what we believe, and what we do when we are alone with our truest, most authentic self. It’s that which calls to us most deeply. It’s our convictions, our passions, our deepest held urges and desires — unavoidable, undeniable, and inexplicable. Unlike Should, Must doesn’t accept compromises.

Must is when we stop conforming to other people’s ideals and start connecting to our own — and this allows us to cultivate our full potential as individuals. To choose Must is to say yes to hard work and constant effort, to say yes to a journey without a road map or guarantees, and in so doing, to say yes to what Joseph Campbell called “the experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonance within our innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive.”

Choosing Must is the greatest thing we can do with our lives.>

It means human can not get along with their lives alone and succeed, and we are all dependent on other people and we need them. We can't thrive just by being alone.

Far more relevant than confomity to social norms is the issue of right and wrong.

The choice between must and should needs to conform to standards of morality.

Morality (from the Latin moralitas "manner, character, proper behavior") is the differentiation of intentions, decisions, and actions between those that are distinguished as proper functions and those which involve the omission of proper functions, the disjunction between right and wrong.[1] Morality can be a body of standards or principles derived from a code of conduct from a particular philosophy, religion, or culture, or it can derive from a standard that a person believes should be universal.[2] Morality may also be specifically synonymous with "goodness" or "rightness."

Forsaking one's parents in favor of a stranger goes against religion (pls. read your bible) and filipino culture (which advocates close family ties and love and respect of parents and observance of debt of gratitude or utang na loob)

Breaking free from these chains of accepted human behavior renders one a recluse (i.e. a person who lives in voluntary seclusion from the public and society.)
