Hello everyone!
Hope all are safe and well! ☺️❤️🙏
First of all, I just want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to all who showed concern and sent their thoughts and prayers for me. It really means a lot. Reading your kind words reminded me that I am not alone, that there are people out there who care, and that God always sends comfort through others. 🙏
You are all right! I just need to trust and surrender everything to God, especially now that I’m going through one of the lowest moments of my life. It’s not easy, but I’m learning to face whatever comes my way with faith. I pray that things won’t get worse, and that I can overcome this with His help and guidance. My life has to go on. As long as there is life, there is hope. We just have to keep fighting because I know brighter days will come in God’s perfect time. 🙏
To keep myself busy and stop overthinking, I cooked some food today. I had fried fish, and then I cooked it again with a simple sauce made from banana catsup and oyster sauce. It's a bit sweet, salty, and sour at the same time. 😋 It became our viand for the whole day. The fish only cost ₱50, but I got 12 pieces, not bad at all! It’s simple, but it’s a blessing. 🙏
In the evening, I started my 10K steps challenge at Arca South. I told myself I’ll do this every day for a month while I’m still here in Manila. My goal is to lose weight, flatten my tummy, and tone my body with firm shoulders and a sexy shape if possible! 😅 I already started exercising yesterday, and I’m hoping to lose around 7 kilograms. I weigh 59 kg now, which is quite heavy compared to before. I really gained a lot of weight since I stayed here in Manila without work for five months. 🤭
If I go home to Leyte looking chubby, people might think I’m pregnant which I’m not! 🤭 My partner and I haven’t been blessed with a child yet. It will be two years before we see each other again. We’re not married yet, but we do have plans. ❤️ Anyway, back to my walking challenge, it took me about 2 hours to finish my 10K steps. I walked several rounds around Arca. It was nice to see families, friends, and couples spending time together. The place was lively, filled with laughter and good vibes. ❤️
There were also food stalls in the plaza, making the area smell so good. ☺️ It added to the warm and happy atmosphere. Seeing people sharing food and laughter reminded me of the beauty of simple joys.
When I passed by a shawarma stall, I told myself I’d buy one after walking. But unfortunately, my phone ran out of battery and I didn’t have cash with me. So, no shawarma for me tonight. Maybe it’s a blessing in disguise, I just burned some calories, and eating shawarma after would only add them back. 🤭
It was truly a great day and night, filled with small blessings that made my heart at peace. From cooking a simple meal to finishing my 10K steps, I felt that quiet sense of joy that only comes when you start to embrace life again. It may not be perfect, but it’s real and that’s what matters. ☺️
I realized that healing doesn’t happen overnight. It comes slowly, through moments like this when you choose to move, to smile, to keep going even when life feels heavy. I thank God for giving me the strength to stand, walk, and still find beauty in the little things. 🙏💪☺️
Every step I take is a reminder that I’m still here for a reason. My story isn’t over yet. And with God’s guidance, I believe that the best days are still ahead. ❤️💪🙏
Have a Blessed Saturday everyone! 😀😀😀💖💖💖
Thank You Lord for the blessings and love!
Be grateful in every little/simple things and you’ll find happiness you ever wanted! 😀😀😀
Everyday is worth to be grateful of!
Praying for the safety and wellness of all.
Heal Our Land Oh God!
Lovelots,
