This year our family goal is to travel more and enjoy. As what saying goes “You only live once” it means we need to live to the fullest. Of course don’t forget that we must also save for the future, when we become old. Life is like a roller coaster there is up and down. Well that is part of being alive, that where we can test our personality and faith.
Frankly everyone wants to be rich and famous, sabi nga nila money is power. But for me right now I am in the stage of my life that I am contented and happy on what I have right now. I am not hypocrite there are times that I am still dreaming that I am rich that I can buy everything that I want in a snap, that I can provide more to my family, that I can travel whenever I want to, that I have a lot of money. But when you become old and mature simplicity and peaceful life will be the best.
Yah I am not rich, I don’t have millions or hundreds of thousands in the bank, I don’t have a brand new car, branded bags etc but I am confident to say that I am happy.
There are so many things that I am thankful for 🙂
1. I have a God that who is our source for everything. Without HIM we are nothing

2. I have a husband who loves me unconditionally, yah we are not perfect we have ups and downs, we struggle but one thing for sure we both know that we love and respect one another.

8. I met new friends, never imagine that I can gain new sisters through blogging

10. We still have Ate Gloria, who help us to maintain our house
11. I can provide decent meal for my family
12. We can still have out of towns and family time
13. We are now planning for our out of the country trip soon
14. We have a home that we are looking forward to go home everyday
15. We have a car that we can use, so we cannot experience the burden of commuting
16. We have gadgets that help us to learn more and entertain us
17. I have a job that can provide our needs
18. I can send my son to a good school
19. I can have a “ME TIME” once in a while
20. I am still ALIVE
And list go on, more things to be thankful than to complain. Being happy and contented it does not mean you can have everything in the world. Because in one snap, things can be taken away from you. Spend time with your love ones, as much as possible shower them with attention and affection. Let’s forgive and forget don’t dwell with the past.
Why I am saying all of these, because life is too short and we must give importance to all the people who matters most in our lives. Hindi yung kalian wala na sila. Always keep in mind material things is not permanent in this world.
Let’s live simple, God fearing, happy and contended. Always counts or blessings than to complain
Love this sis 🙂
Thanks sis 🙂
It depends on how we define “rich”, like you, I am happy and contented with our life. For me, being rich is not having lots of money, as long as we can eat three times a day, we have a home and I can send my son in a good school, I feel blessed na. 🙂
Yes sis 🙂 and basta healthy lahat. Minsan masarap lang mangarap that I have a lot of money yung sobra talaga. Pero mas importante sakin ang family at health
Thankfulness is the enemy of discouragement, is what I’ve been taught. But yes, minsan talaga ang hirap iwasan not to wish mayaman kami for the convenience of it. But moreso, to be able to help others.Mas madali talaga tumulong if you can afford to help.
So much to be grateful talaga sis. 🙂 This is very timing ngayon sa akin. Being emotional lately dahil sa dami ng pagsubok na halos hindi maubos-ubos.
Nice blog sis. Reminds me to be always thankful. 🙂
Salamat sis 🙂 siguro nakatulong sakin na talaga every Sunday I have to go to church
You are blessed, sis. You also know how to share your blessings thus life is good on you, too. Enjoy life and wishing you more places to couquer.
Thanks sis 🙂 hope to see you soon tagal tagal na kita huli nakita
