There was the word Sunday. Seventh day of the week. Rest day. Peaceful day. Or so, Merriam-Webster so defines it.

And there was the word, Sin-day. I was Sin-bad.


The difference? The letters, U, and I.

U and I. Parang WE na din, pero malabo.

Once upon a lifetime, people become selfless, and they think of U, and they lose themselves, that's why during Sundays, churches are jampacked with all those goers, haggling, praying.

And then, Big P strikes, Pain. and the thought of losing oneself gets into the nerves. And the world turns, and the orientation and perspective completely reverses itself. That's why U, becomes I. Selfishness arrives into the picture.

A lifetime passes by. People become selfish, and instead of Praying, they are Preying. A to E? that's more like it.

And Sin-days are born.

All Sundays of Summer. Almost.
