I have read somewhere that whenever you feel weary, better count your blessings in order to feel good. So, I’m listing down the things I should be thankful about:
- for my life. 35 years and still counting…
- for good health. I’ve been hospitalized only once.
- for my family. I have good sisters and a brother plus two pamangkins.
- for him. Well, he knows who he is.
- for my oldies. They keep me grounded (though at times I resent it.)
- for our home. The only place I can really be myself.
- for my Palaris brods and sisses. My second family.
- for friends. They provide the smiles and laughters.
- for my UP education. My greatest pride.
- for having the chance to enjoy what life has to offer. I am privileged to live above the poverty line.
- for my exes. So may lessons learned and unlearned.
- for my morena skin. Brown is also beautiful.
- for DAGirl. A reminder of how hardworking I am.
- for my previous jobs. They gave me the skills, experience, knowledge, and money to survive the world out there.
And of course,
- for the intelligence to decipher obscure notions and feelings, analyze problems, discern what’s right from wrong (at least, in my own standards), handle difficult situations, make prudent judgments, and draw up good decisions.
Hmmnn… Not bad. I have a good life despite the downsides. What more can I ask for? Asking for more may be asking too much. So, I’m leaving the list just at that. Ciao!
