Blessings

This day is one of my best days. When it rains, it pours. Today all the things that I prayed for last week has finally arrived. God is really good. He always provide us what we needed. I think that life is not really complicated at all. What make things complicated is when we aspire for things that we don't need. Before the year ends, I am counting my blessings. I'm so blessed. I am blessed with things that money can't buy. There are so many distractions everywhere, people who can never be happy for what you have. All I wish that I will be able to ignore them. I will not let them ruin my life. My life is good. Theirs is not.

Counting My Blessings

I observed that many people are whining about how busy their lives is, about how expensive everything is and about being tired and about not being able to sleep. And I observed some people constantly complain about money and being poor. And I look at them, like" what are they talking about?". These people are so lucky because I think they have more than enough. Imagine if they're on my shoes because I'm really poor. But the thing is they don't know that or even if if I will tell them, they won't beleieve. The thing is I'm poor but I feel rich. I'm poor but I am not qualified in welfare hehe and all the free goodies but even if, we won't, let the ones who really need it have it because I am capable of working. I just have that feeling of contentment and I fee like I have everything that I need already and I feel like I can afford the things that I want. I think it's all about acceptance. Knowing that in my life at this moment there are things that I can forego.I would rather buy stuffs for the kids instead of  a $3K purse for me. I'm a stage where when I shop to the store to buy new clothes for me, I end up buying for my kids. And it doesn't bother me in the least little bit. I know that in time I can splurge myself.  I  do indulge myself but at minimal costs but I'm already happy about it. I wish people who are bothered about money will stop letting it affect them because that's life. We earned it and we spend it. At the end of the day, count your blessings. Be grateful and you'll the difference it makes the rest of your evening.

Change for the Better

Am I getting old or am I a changed person now? I've been getting discount coupons and I'm just passing them now. I just looked and didn't buy. I used to buy right away whenever I get free shipping with no minimum order offer. I feel like it's a sin to pass this kind of offer. That's how bad my shopping habit is. I think I changed because I realized that my kids are growing up so fast. They outgrown their clothes and shoes so fast that I need to save money for them. This is not all about me anymore. I have to think about my kids and my family. Besides, I have too many clothes and shoes that I rarely wear. If I ever shop for myself again, I want it to be something that I really need. I like this..I am changing ...for the better..Good luck to me!

Giving Your Best

There are times when we feel we're a failure. I feel that sometimes. I know I failed a numerous times already but that doesn't mean I have to quit on trying.




When I look back upon my past, I realized that some of those failures happened because I didn't tried hard enough. I could have done better. My excuses because I don't have this , I don't have that etc. etc. I should haven't let it discouraged me. It happened already anyway. But now all I can do is not to commit the same mistakes. As they said we need to learned from our mistakes.


Life is like a trial and error. Even if we're losing we still have to keep on tyring and do our best.

Giving our best in everything that we do. Like me, I'll give my very best in being a good wife , a good mother , a good daughter to my parents and a good sister to my sister. I think that's what life is all about, just give your best no matter what.

Determined

Once in awhile, a good friend of mine asked me to help her in their clinic. I'm sort of like an on call. Whenever their receptionist is off, I'll came over to help them. I was trained for two days last month and I kinda followed already. My friend is so organized and patient in teaching me. And she's very understanding with my mistakes. Even though I don't work often but I'm determined to be good with my job because I'm hoping they would hire me someday. It's very self fulfilling working in their office because   I learned a lot from them. I know now how to handle office work, from encoding, posting payments, dealing with scanner software, scheduling appointments. Knowing all these stuffs will diversify my skills in the future. I will not stop learning. I am a determined person.

On Magkaribal...

Magkaribal is a primetime show in the Philippines of the Kapamilya Network.ABS-CBN. I followed this show fromthe start and finally ended yesterday. I'm so full of drama because with their last week episodes, my comments and reactions are posted in my facebook shoutouts. And I got numerous comments. Well, I have to admit Magkaribal is really a good show. We can learned a lot from it especially about forgiveness. In life, sometimes it's better to be generous with our forgiveness. It gives us more happiness and peace of mind.

Miracles Never Fail To Happen

Some people who went through trials and tribulations thought that they're being punished by God. I used to think that way before. It's really a hard feeling when you feel alone and you feel like there's no one to turn to. As I muddle through my own problems I realized that all of these are just part of life. I'm up then I'm down. All these struggles have taught me a lesson how to be strong . Most importantly, it draws me closer to God which is the most significant part for me. You know the feeling that even though you're living the simplest life, just living within your means, and yet you have these feeling in your heart just feeling so blessed , that's what I felt right now. All I want is keep praising God. He is so good, so forgiving and very caring. He gave me a husband who is very understanding, a family who truly cares for me and friends who always stand by me. I hope that those people who've been through a lot of struggles also, will never give up. Please just keep your faith. Let go of your fears and let God do the rest. He knows what is best for us all.

Let Go Let God

I have too many worries lately. I feel like I'm carrying a huge burden in my shoulder. You know the feeling of helplessness. You want to help but you just can't. It's upsetting. But this is life. I will never let these hardships put me down. I'm thankful to God because He never leave me.Whatever difficulties I'm facing right now is the result of my actions. I don't have any regrets at all. Instead it inspired me to keep on fighting, to set my goals and focus on my priority. God, I'm letting go of my worries for today, and I completely surrender my actions and decisions to you. Can you handle them for me just for the moment?
