Positive Life

Grateful on to what already have

We spend so much of our lives chasing the next thing—
a better job, a bigger house, a newer phone,
hoping that this one will finally make us happy.

But happiness is not always found in what is new.
Sometimes, it is found in learning to see the old—
differently.

That small home that shelters your family.
That meal you worked hard to put on the table.
Those ordinary days that you once prayed for.

You already have more than you think.

The secret is not in having everything you want,
but in wanting what you already have.

Because when gratitude becomes your habit,
contentment becomes your wealth.
And when your heart is full,
you stop feeling like you are missing out—
even when the world tells you to want more.

Genesis M. Auza

**“Sabi nila, tumatanda tayo kaya hindi na tayo naglalaro…
Pero ang totoo, tumatanda tayo dahil kinalimutan na nating maglaro.
Kinalimutan na nating tumawa sa maliliit na bagay,
Kinalimutan na nating magsaya nang walang dahilan,
Kinalimutan na nating maging bata sa puso.

Hindi ibig sabihin na pusong bata ka, eh isip-bata ka rin.
Magkaiba ‘yon.
Ang pusong bata, marunong sumaya kahit sa pinakamaliit na bagay,
Kahit gaano kababaw, kahit gaano kawalang kwenta sa iba.

Kaya sana, huwag nating hayaang mawala ‘yung bata sa loob natin.
Dahil sa huli, hindi edad ang batayan ng kabataan,
Kundi kung paano natin pinipili na maging masaya
Sa gitna ng lahat ng bigat ng na ating daladala”** 🌻✨
