Be Thankful For What You Have Novels & Stories

Sobrang hindi ko kaya. Ang dami ko pang gustong sabihin sakanya. Kasi kulang pa ang salitang MAHAL KITA para ipakita sakanya kung gaano ko nga siya ka mahal. Pati 'yong salitang Thank you kulang pa 'yon para ipakita kung gaano ako ka thankful sa lahat ng mga ginawa at tulong niya sakin no'ng mga panahong walang wala ako. Wala eh. Lahat 'yon hindi ko na masasabi kahit kelan.

Isiniksik ko rin ang mukha ko sa balikat niya habang mahigpit rin siyang niyakap. I want to be a good person. I don't want to waste this beautiful life that has given me for the second time. Life is precious, so let's not waste it. No matter how hard life may be, but always think the good side. The goals. The plans. The things that makes us happy. Let's all see the purpose why we are living.

sabo naman ni Rafael. “ Nasasabi ko ito kasi hindi natin hawak ang buhay diba? Kailangan mong maging matatag kapag nawala ako, umiyak ka lang para sa akin pero lumaban ka at magpatuloy sa buhay mo, kapag nagawa mo iyon magiging masaya ko pati Mommy at Daddy mo.” sabi ni Angela na nakangiti parin ito kay Rafael.

Sa lahat-lahat ng aking nagawa. I’m sorry for the times I ignored you. It’s been awhile, hasn’t it? I’m sorry for only talking to you when I need help. I am sorry I am not more grateful for your gifts. It seems all I can see is what I am lacking. I am sorry for not giving you thanks every day. Sure, some days are hard. Some days I feel like there is no light. But I have a roof over my head, a family that loves me, and food on my table. I’m so blessed, and I am sorry for not realizing that enough.

Pero di nila alam ang nakasakay sa four wheels, hinahangad na magkaroon ng sariling paa. Ang aral, be grateful on what you have. Maging masaya tayo kung ano man ang mayroon tayo. Jeff, might fall into a pit dahil sa kaliwa kanang kamalasan daw niya. Yung totoo, di lang niya alam kung ano ang labis na magpapasaya sa kanya. Ako? Magiging masaya ako kapag nahanap ko na nga ang babaing totoo na magmamahal sa akin. Enough na yun sa akin.

Yung tipong kahit busy o may kanya-kanyang buhay, hindi nawawala ang bond. Pero yung meron ako ngayon… complicated. Medyo messy, medyo challenging, pero kahit papaano, kuntento na rin ako. I guess, I had to really appreciate what I have right now. Dahil kung i-compare ko sa iba, grabe, mas maganda pa rin yung life na meron ako. Mas maraming blessings na kahit hindi perfect, ramdam mo at thankful ka.

Napagtanto ko na ang pag-iisip sa kung ano ang maaaring mangyari ay makakabawas lamang sa kagandahan ng kung ano ang mayroon ako. One evening, as the sun painted the sky with hues of orange and gold, I turned to Sheena, my heart overflowing with gratitude. "Thank you for never giving up on us, Sheena," I whispered, my voice filled with genuine affection. "You've shown me a love that I never thought possible, and I am forever grateful for the journey we've taken together."

Nawalan na ako ng oras para magmuni-muni. The older we get, the more we realized that being grateful because of simple things makes life more beautiful; waking up every morning, drinking a cup of coffee while reminiscing the dream we just had, looking forward to see the smile on children's faces and just wondering what will happen for the day or the next coming days. The older we get, the more we realized lots of things. More questions to ask and more answers to seek. There will be a time that we will asked ourselves if what we did or had was all worth it; the sacrifices, the pains or the heartbreaks.

Thank you! Spend your time with your family.

“A simple thank you won’t hurt your ego, Selene.” “Habol mo ba ang thank you ‘ko? Fine, have it. I’m thanking you ten times today. Thank you sa pagdala ng pagkain ‘ko kahit wala naman akong sinabi. Thank you sa pagpunta kahit alam kong busy ka naman. Thank you—” “Damn, shut up!”
