It's me again.
It's been awhile because work was crazy.
So, now, I've got a little time.
The past few weeks? Yeah, as I've said, was crazy almost to the point of just leaving everything down and walk away.
But I survived.
The pile of work was too much, I don't think I gave quality work. I put much pressure to deadlines than quality. It might have been a mistake but I'm sure to get the results this week. So, good luck.
I want this blog to be oozing with positivity but just one last thing. It's a bit disappointing to know that people you consider friends might not turn out to be one or might not treat you as one. Just to be completely vague about this, it all boils down to expectation. You want to help. You try to call or send a message but nothing. An sms would suffice. Because its not just always about you. I'm also concerned with others involved. It's not even personal. Just sayin'...
HENIHOO, enough about that.
Despite the negativity and despite what you see in my status these days, believe me that in my head, I try to count the blessings that I get everyday. Mostly, the littlest things. Because its only through those moments that I get to smile. It's mainly the reason why I survived and is still surviving.
First, the job. I whine always about work but I'm grateful for it. I wouldn't have anything to provide for my family back home without it. So, thanks Phibious.
Second, friends. They make me look forward to dinners and weekends. With them by my side, I don't only smile. I laugh. Boisterously.
Third, my family. Simply put, they inspire me.
Fourth, health. I know I don't have the healthiest of lifestyles, but I thank God for giving my body enough to push through. And I am fully aware that I should take care more of it.
Fifth, safety. In this day and age, nothing is that safe anymore unless you have ten bodyguards surrounding you. And even with that, you're not really totally safe from accidents. I've walk home to and from work. And going home late may be a little bit scary. So, its wonderful that I'm still in one-piece. :)
Let's go to the simple things...
My house mate's cooking abilities. Tinola, giniling, adobo. What more can you ask for? (I'm so grateful to Mikey for this). Food rejuvenates me. It perks me up.
My iPad. La lang. It's just fun to play with something in your few idle times.
House helper. For keeping my stuff clean especially when time is not on my side.
My house mate's cats. For keeping guard whenever I go home late. They also keep me company whenever I'm alone. Or even down.
Newly-installed bidet. Our landlord put in a new one. It forces out water stronger than before. I love it.
My blackberry. For alarming on time, every single day, so I am not late.
Tuktuk drivers. For driving safe and for not being abusive when giving their price.
The Sun. While it rarely shows itself these days, a few rays coming out from the clouds always sends a message a hope.
For this Sunday. The fact that I'm able to blog again. The fact that I'm able to just rest and recuperate, getting back that lost hours of sleep.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you
I have so many reasons to smile. Millions actually.
And so, no matter what, once in a while, you will still catch me smiling. (like now)
