when i resurrected this blog, i had no idea what to write. sure, i was going to write about my life and family etc. but other than that, i had no clue.
so here i am writing again. but ever since i stopped going to the office, i have sort of lost contact with the world, so to speak. if i didn't surf the web, watch tv or listen to the radio, i'd be at a loss for news. but i don't feel badly about it. my world may have become smaller but it's still my world. i am still as happy and content as i was last year.
i am proud to say i am contented with my life. true, i have wishes and dreams but if i don't achieve them, i'm still happy with my life. i have learned to let go of material desires and high expectations. instead, i make the most out of every day. everyday i spend with loved ones is a day well spent. i do not want a day to pass knowing i didn't do anything worth smiling. i may not have a big bank account balance, in fact i may struggle some days, but i will still live.
i have learned to enjoy my time. my time alone, time with the bf, time with baby and time with the family. squeezing in a few hours with friends is an even better deal. i try not to harbor ill thoughts about other people. i don't allow myself thoughts of revenge or vendetta. instead, i choose to forget about them. i tell God i forgive them and i will no longer concern myself about them. they have their lives and i have my own. it means less stress at the end of the day.
of course, i am human. i feel sad or discouraged and hurt at times. and i allow myself to feel those feelings. but i also know when to stop. i shake myself mentally and say enough. then i move on to better and happier things.
if there's one thing i realized, every day you live and every day you learn.
