She Can't Let Go Of Unnecessary Things
July 29, 2022
**Are you the kind of person who it's hard to let go of some unnecessary stuff?**
Sometimes we have some things that are hard to let go especially if this thing has sentimental value for us like souvenirs, yearbooks, gifts, photos, baby clothes, and some other things.
Although letting go of unnecessary things it's quite difficult but somehow it gives us peace of mind in a way that we have more space in our area and in this way we feel lighter and at ease.
If there are things that needed to be given away because we think we do not need them anymore then why not donate them sure there are so many unfortunates people out there who can not afford all the stuff that you have but you just keep in one corner and just wait until it will no longer be needed and end up into the garbage containers.
There are some people whose attitudes are just like collecting things she feels happy by the time she buys unnecessary things. I can say unnecessary things it's because surely she never needs them and just put them in one place one example of this is my employer.
Given the fact that yes they have money to buy all those expensive things she always goes shopping but at the end of the day she just puts them inside the drawer.
When I was new here in my employer's house they are 4 siblings 2 brothers and 2 sisters who are both single. As time goes by I know and am familiar with each one of them. These 2 sisters have different attitudes when it comes to their things. I like the older sister because she organized her belongings and if there are things that she no longer uses she gives someone and donates them to those who need them.
The younger sister is she's married now and has a 9-month-old baby boy, I was happy at that time knowing that she was getting married because for sure she will go to another house and God answers my prayers she now only comes here to visit every Thursday.
This younger sister of my employer always goes shopping to buy unnecessary things which end up coming crowded in her room. Why I can say unnecessary thing is because she didn't wear those clothes. After all, every time they went outside they only wear abaya. Her brother does not allow her to wear and go outside if not wearing an abaya their traditional wearing.
I remember her bedroom before when she was still not married she leave her clothes on her bed and where she sleep and it was okay even only she had a little space to sleep and no one time I enter her room at that time she is the one clean it.
Until one day their house needs to sell and they must rent a small apartment that was the time that I know she has so many clothes put in big boxes and only to find out that some of those things will not be okay due to some materials will not okay when times go by some will go in the garbage and others she can't do anything with them but to give for there is no space where to put it.
Here attitudes like that up until now I hope someday she will realize how she wasted her money by buying all those expensive unnecessary things and just putting them in the boxes.
Because now in a couple of days she always complains that her husband doesn't want to go to work she coming problematic when she gets money every time she's craving all those sales in the department store lol.
That's all for my Chicka Dora for today.

Overnight at the Beach
July 28, 2022
Whoa, what's happening to me? As if I didn't need money because I let my laziness, takes over for about 4 days but anyway enough for my regrets for we can not do anything for it.
So for my today's blog post, I take this idea from the hive platform and speaking of the hive platform guess what? Hehe, I've landed there though my account, was created a month ago since I don't have confidence in terms of writing, and maybe also while reading some of the users here they find a hive platform was quite difficult but my friend @Chelle18 is not getting tired to encourage me to continue my journey there and so thanks to you my friend.
Learning new things
I joined the contest in the ladies of hive community wherein there are 2 categories you only have to choose which one you like to give details and so the number 2 category I choose so here we go I start.
The question goes like this.
If you were given a round-trip airline ticket to anywhere in the world, where would you choose to go, and specifically why?
My thoughts about this question/ topic
Without a second thought, I would choose to travel back to the Philippines because I missed my homeland so much specifically on beaches. We can't deny the fact that when we heard about the beach it brings us joy, it is a great location, to relax, unwind, and take a break from crowded cities.
Why at the beach?
Somehow it helps me calm down, all extreme emotions, the sadness loneliness, excitement all those feelings. I'd love to just see and observe the waves and feel the wind blows and the beauty of nature.
To be honest I am in my 30s but no one time I stayed overnight at the beach how boring my life it was right? That is why I always told, my husband that by the time I am coming back home I surely want to experience that scenario that I only saw in a movie. That only set in the dark with the firewood and lay on the sand or bury my feet on the sand while looking at the stars. How enjoyable right?
I wanted to experience how's the feeling that we are staying overnight at the sea, I guess the beach is one of the best places during nighttime wherein we can witness the glowing sea waves, the scent, and the wind that gives us relaxation by the time we close our eyes and hears the sound of waves crashing and it is so relaxing and it helps our busy mind to calm down after a tiring day of our work.
Final thought
Therefore, we need to appreciate our mother nature because it gives us the refreshing feeling that we need by the time we became tired of living that sometimes we need to clear our minds by just set and appreciating nature and its finest.
That's all for me today.
Thank you everyone for taking the time to read!

She Wants a Bicycle:Can I Grant Her Wish?
July 23, 2022
Do you remember when was the first time you learn to balance cycling?
Why do kids like to have a bicycle?
As a kid, we too much liked cycling, it is enjoying and fun, as far as I remember when I was in grade school I was in grade 5 to be exact that was the time I learned how to ride a bicycle and the worse is I don't have my own I just borrowed by my friends which there are times that they don't allow me to used and I am just only looking at them while enjoying the rides.
I certainly remember how I learned to ride a bicycle that was the time that my father's friend come to visit him and he has a bicycle then I politely ask him to use it because I wanted to learn and I am blessed as he let me used it and warn me to be careful.
While using the bicycle of my father's friend I am praying silently and hoped that he stayed long hours talking with my father, to be honest at that time I wanted to stop the clock it's because I enjoyed riding at the same time learning how to balance but then clock we know never stop although fathers friend stays a long time it's already night and so I can not do anything as he needs to go. But glad that after almost one day of cycling on his bike I know in myself that I know already how to balance the bicycle and I am happy even though I don't have and never had a chance to own one but at least I've learned to drive it.
Yesterday night while my youngest daughter Sophia we're talking via messenger she opened again on the topic of the bicycle that she ask me to buy as a present for her when she had an award in school. I thought that she forgot it already but no she just also waited only, She said she was shy but now she has the guts to remind me lol.
As a mother that has so much time lost without them by my side, I wanted to grant her wish to own a bicycle because I know how're the feels of excitement and I can relate to her situation same as what happened to me when I was at the same age with her.
Furthermore, Sophia already knows how to do balancing the bicycle she learned it when one of her friends visited and bring a bicycle and I feel sad for Sophia as I know the feeling of wanting something that makes us happy.
I tried to search for the price of the bicycle that she want and only to find out that it's quite expensive and probably I need to grind more so that I can able to give her the bicycle that she want.
Closing words
I know material things sometimes can make someone happy in a short period, then I would try my best to give it to someone I love especially my children for all the hardships that I am facing I am strong because of them.
They are my happy pill.
That's all for me today, thank you for dropping by.
Only Time Will Tell
July 22, 2022
Time passes and I am still in a state of confusion about what's my decision, I can not think clearly, and I had a hard time making the right decision because a lot of different ideas coming into my head but nothing I feel the right thing to achieve.
I am talking about the upcoming vacation that somehow I still have a second thought if what's the right thing to do if I come back again or find another job and all I can say is only time will tell.
Yesterday, I saw a video of one content blogger on YouTube I followed her before because she uploaded her life of being an oversea worker in Riyad Saudi Arabia until she go back to the Philippines 3 years ago.
Her life somehow can relate to many people especially those same our work as a domestic helpers. I stop watching her video since I started blogging here in noise. cash and read. cash but yesterday I accidentally drop again her channel and still, she's ongoing making everyday vlogs, and I found out that she's applying again as a domestic helper but this time in Hongkong country.
Upon reading the comments section on her blogs some of them were telling and asked why she comes up with a decision to work again abroad despite she had 3 children and the youngest was still 2 years old because according to the commenters that she was told in her previous blog that tells she doesn't want to go back abroad for she doesn't want that her youngest will be experienced the same as her 2 kids that she left before even at their young age.
However, she tried to explain to her avid followers why she decided again to work in another country one of her reason was that they have a lot of depts already that being a small blogger cant assure them because she has only a few views on her uploaded videos.
Anyhow, some of them kept on telling her why not her husband makes a way to find a job anyway a man should be the one responsible to bring food to the table.
Furthermore, she kept on insisting that her husband doesn't have the capabilities to work abroad and that she's the one who has the potential to work.
Anyway, some of her followers understand why she decides to apply again and comfort her with some words to uplift her because it's not easy to leave the family if only we have another choice not to leave but sadly we don't have.
Closing Thought
It's a hard decision to leave your family it needs a strong determination. And to those people who are lucky enough to not need to leave the family in return for work don't quickly judge others because we all have a different path to take.
I guess that's all for me today,
What's up readtizen how's everyone today,? As for me, there was a moment when I am not sure what I am doing it was hard to feel like this but still, I keep going no matter what because no one can help me, but myself.
My sponsors thank you, guys.
Thank you for reading!
Random Story About Family
July 21, 2022
It's Thursday readtizens and last night when I and madam Fatma watching Netflix in sala she said that this month, of July, hastily going and I think she's right coz I feel it too and I am a little bit happy in my part because that means my vacation was fast approaching yay!
So for my today blog post probably I am going to share some random things happening in my family in the Philippines as I hardly find what to write coz honestly I am not good at everything sorry for the negative thoughts on my mind but that's the truth but nothing but the truth.
My partner, I mean the father of my two daughters, will I am using the word " partner "as we still not getting married but we're getting into it soon in God's perfect time. We've been 14 going 15 years of being together and thank God for even we're long distance for over 6 years now but our relationship was going strong though, it's not easy we face many challenges, struggle but all those things are making our relationship strong enough.
How's my relationship with his family
They are 10 siblings 1 died already his parents were in their 60s my partner had 6 sisters and they are 4 brothers the 3 brothers are still single.
I admire how their families bond together they love and respect each other I witness how difficult their life was way back 14 years ago but his siblings do their best to at least there a way of living that will somehow can be way better than it was.
His 3 older sisters 15 years ago started to travel to Dubai for work to sustain their younger siblings and their parents. They help each other even though they have their own families now.
Although I still didn't have time to bond with them I know they love me as being partners with their brother. As you know, a woman's instinct lol.
His 3 sisters worked in Dubai but yearly they went to the Philippines for vacation.
And the other sister is in Australia for she married an Australian and their parents go to Australia like 3 months for a vacation. I guess his sister now still supported their parents even though she married an Australian she had work she did not depend on her husband.
I know now their way of living was better than before, his parents have already a house in the province where we are residing at this moment, and in short, we're a neighborhood, and I like it.
So the other day one of his sisters the one who wears pink in the middle came from Dubai for a vacation and every time they were having spent time together they will not waste time. Every day they went to the beach etc. For they only have a short period together and the good thing about our place is that wear near the beaches which surely everyone wants to stay on the sea.
And so today I was a little upset for the whole day they don't have time to call me via messenger for again they go to the beach for tomorrow his sister going back in the city.
Final words
As much as I wanted to do more chicka but I was out of words all I can say is Family is everything no matter what.
That's all for me today thank you for dropping by!
My sponsors thank you so much...
Comparing myself with others
July 20, 2022
`"Don't compare yourself with anyone in this world...if you do so. Your insulting yourself"`- **Bill Gates**
***Have you sometimes compared yourself with others?***
***How does it feel when we are going to compare ourselves to others?***
***Does comparing ourselves affect our mental health?***
**Hi, regards to everyone who has been on this site may we continue our journey through thick and thin though sometimes we're facing circumstances that we can not avoid that can cause us to be unmotivated but as we always said that all those things are going through.**
So for my today's topic is about comparing ourselves to others.
I can not deny the fact that if someone were better than me I have this attitude of telling myself that I wish I could also do the same.
I would like to give some of my insecurities that I consider these things that are the reason why I compare myself to others.
**If I see a younger individual who is successful in their chosen path**
I know it's an unhealthy feeling that I compare myself to the success of others but somehow it is also a way for me to assess myself and why I am not succeeding in whatever way I want.
I know we all have a different path to take in this world may they achieve their goals at a right time within their specific time frame or other they have their luck to achieve all those things at the right time.
There was some time that I think about how they achieve their success at a young age?
Could it be that they have luck in their existence?
I guess all of us want to be successful in whatever our goals in life may it be in business or our life but most people failed to do it it's because they stop and give up easily.
It sounds like I am ranting what my life at the moment by comparing my capability with others but the truth is I keep it as a challenge.
Those securities, envious, that I feel somehow I want to make and used it as a motivation to continue my goals in life.
Since comparing ourselves to other people will not do good for us it will make us not able to trust our capability to do such a thing it will give our self-esteem low and think that everybody is better than we are.
Closing words
If we compared ourselves to others we are becoming impatient with everything, if we want to be successful in our lives we should work and be smart enough and have a passion for it. We should focus on ourselves so that we can see our progress and that every second we spent looking at someone else achievements would be better spent working on our own personal.
If we see someone better than us in terms of performance, and knowledge it's okay to compare ourselves but in an inspiring way to improve. We must, however, stop comparing so that we can avoid fear and have the confidence to take risk of developing ourselves.
That's all for me today and thank you for reading!
Self -Reflection
July 16, 2022
Self Reflection is like pausing a little bit in the chaos of life and taking time to think about our life.
Self-reflection is something to looking on a situation or some experiences, it is about questioning positively, what you do and why you do it, and deciding whether there is a better way or more efficient of doing it in the future.
Why we need to self-reflect on some time
It's because when we reflect we gain a better understanding of what's working on and what is not, it helps us grow as a person, we should reflect on our actions on our attitudes because it is one effective way to identify areas where we need to change.
So often we think about our achievements too much that we can not appreciate the time in between we should sometimes take time to reflect on ourselves.
These are some questions in our minds while doing some self-reflection
Did I work toward my goals today?
What bad habits do I need to stop?
What motivated me today?
Have I been the kind of person I want to be?
What worries me most about the future?
Am I holding to something I need to let go of?
Who am I?
What am I scared of?
When negative thoughts arise how do I deal with them?
The first question did I work on my goals today? I am working on it but to be honest, I am not happy with my work right now it's not that I don't like it but because I sacrifice the time that lost to be with my family.
The second question is a bad habit that I need to stop when procrastination hits me it's because I can't write and read articles when these habits hit me badly.
The third question is what motivates me today I guess to learn new things every day,
The fourth question is if I have been the kind of person that I want to be, and it's a yes it's because I can proudly say that I've come this far without someone I hurt and that's important to me my conscience is healthy.
The fifth question is what worries me about the future, will I guess it something adventure which hasn't happened yet, but I found it an adventure more than worries.
Am I holding to something I need to let go of? All the regrets, and disappointment in life I need to let go those so that I can move on.
Who am I? That the lord of all the earth, would you care to know my name, char? One word to describe who I am is that I am a kind person but don't dare to abuse it.
What am I scared of? When one of my family said goodbye. I have trauma from leaving alone in this chaotic world.
When negative thoughts arise, I deal with them as a challenge and accept that in our life there should be negativity that surrounds us, let us give ourselves to accept the negativity needed for us to grow.
Final thoughts
It's good when we do Self-reflection at times just so we can assess if we're truly happy and content with our life. Self-reflection gives us a chance to dive deeper into who are and what makes us who we are.
To my sponsors thank you so much.

God is Good all the time
July 15, 2022
Half of July whoa I am a little bit of excitement, time flies so fast, and if God allows me to go on coming back home this coming December, of course, I feel I am lucky enough to have that opportunity that I have been longing for to happen.
What's up my read. cash family it's the weekend by the way. I hope that you spend more time with your family because others wanted to have that kind of bond but time didn't allow for it.
And for my today blog post, I do the acrostic version.
Without further ado, here I start.
God is good all the time
***G***od is greater than our worries, He never leaves us when we feel worried, when we feel anxious about something he is willing to carry our burdens.
***O***ur problems may be big but his promises are stronger and surer during our hard times and our difficulties he tells us to not worry we just have to pray and he is willing to give us peace of mind.
**D**on't ever complain about the struggles or the pain rather we face it we should practice praising and being grateful for all the blessings.
***I*** am thankful to God because he was always there on my journey even if sometimes I had taken it for granted for not praising him but he loves me unconditionally.
***S***everal times I had questions about my faith, I know I am not perfect, but he showed me the way he never let me down, he'd raised me and that was the time that I know that God never leave me through my darkest days.
***G***iven the fact that there are times when I was getting started to feel that no one is with me those times ,when only God tested my faith in him, I failed many times but then I know he allowed us to fail to experience it for us to become stronger than ever.
***O***ne of the mysterious things about God is that he never failed and never fail.
***O***n the other hand, God never abandoned us he is always with us in good times and in bad times.
***D***uring the difficult times in my life and that was the time that I decided to leave my two kids 6 years ago it was the most difficult decision that I made.
***A***ll I can say at that time was that I surrender to God whatever my decision, It is not easy yet I overcome all the homesickness that I felt.
***L***eaving my two daughters seems a heartbreaking painful decision but all is well God is there he never let us go in the wrong way.
***L***et us be grateful for all the time for there is nothing impossible if we let God lead our way.
***T***he moment I felt unhappy I let my tears fall on my face while talking to God.
***H***aving no one to talk to then God was their willingness to listen to whatever burdens that we shoulder.
***E***very time I feel that no one understands me I just look up to the sky and even though I didn't see him I know he listens to me before I ask.
***T***ime passed by that the longing to be with my family was at ease for I know God is in control of everything.
***I***t has been easy for me the days, and years passing through he heal me so that I overcome those days that I am far from my loved ones.
**M**uch with this, I am nothing without God, probably without him, I didn't come this far.
**E**nding thoughts, I just let what my hearts desire I just let my hands type my keyboard buttons whatever my heart says.
To my sponsors thank you so much.
Thank you for reading!
Till next time!
" *****God is good all the time***** "
My 5 favorite Inspirational Quotes
July 14, 2022
Inspirational quotes represent the idea that thoughts can be put into words and those words can transform into action.
I clearly remember when I was in my second year of high school that was the time that I can feel the so-called puppy love, as we all know it is the time that we feel affection, and adoring for someone during our childhood.
I had a crush on one of my classmates and that's the time when I started loved reading some love quotes it's because upon reading them somehow seems we express our feelings toward the person we admire.
But for now, since I am already in my 30s and so I now love reading some inspirational quotes about life.
Back then I always go through YouTube videos and heard inspirational and motivational words from some speakers when I feel the emptiness inside me.
And so now I would like to share my top 5 favorite inspirational quotes.
"Spread Love Everywhere you go"
-Mother Teresa
In the journey of our existence in this realm, we couldn't figure out where our destiny of, just for example, when I was a kid I couldn't imagine that I can travel far for work and that I should always spread love wherever I go for me to be equipped by the time I can mingle with different types of people.
We must embrace pain and burn it as fuel for our journey
-Kenji Miyazawa
Yes, I truly embrace the pain and that's the reason now that I can proudly say that I am a strong woman. There is power in embracing the pain although it is not easy somehow can lead us on the journey of success.
"Difficult times will come, it's a fact of life, isn't it? There are bad times and good times in everybody's life"
-Raj Kosaraju
Truth life is not always a bed of roses, we encounter difficulties, and suffer pain but this all shall pass.
"I just want you to know that if you are out there and you are being hard on yourself right now for something that has happened it's normal. That is going to happen to you in life. No one gets through unscathed. We are all going to have a few scratches on us. Please be kind to yourself, and stand up for yourself."
-Taylor swift
I'd love to read this kind of inspirational words it seems the author knows what exactly I felt, and at such a time it motivates, inspires, and encourages.
"I tell myself, You've been through so much, you've endured so much time will allow me to heal, and soon this will be just another memory that made me the strong woman, athlete, and mother I am today"
-Serena Williams
Perfectly agree with this quote, soon the time comes that all the hardships, the struggle I face will become a story to tell that despite all of those I became a strong individual a strong mother that can able to endure the pain the homesickness just for her children's future.
Bottom line
It is good when sometimes we read or heard inspirational words/ quotes because somehow can uplift our spirit of wisdom, and can change our mood for the better.
And that's all for me today.
My sponsors God Bless you all.
Thank you for reading till next time!
Ask Me
July 13, 2022
If you are out of topic but don't want to miss a single day not publishing an article it's because we want to be productive or we have a goal to write one article a day and so a topic like this somehow can save our day. We all know that finding a good topic every day is quite hard just so you know how happy I am if I completely composed a minimum of 3 minutes of reading I feel relieved and have a wide-open smile on my face knowing that at last, I can publish an article.
I come up with this write-up for my beloved friend @Chelle18 as I ask her to find me a topic cause I don't have any but then she quickly send me this photo of the questionnaire titled ASk Me.
So I know my introduction was already long so now let's start.
Favorite things to do
I used to organize things in order I don't want to see missy things probably because I am a housekeeper and so that's why I feel a headache when things are not in place.
Something you used to like
I used to like to have long hair when I was a teenage girl but now I feel worried about its because my hair wasn't healthy anymore from the thick long and black but now it's getting less due to hair fall problem even if I always cutting it because I thought it was a solution to avoid falling but it is still the same some say it is because if we're stress then chances are it causes hair fall.
What's your comfort zone
My comfort zone is that I want to drink coffee every morning with a piece of bread I feel satisfied with it and completes my day rather than exercise lol.
Relationships status
In a de facto relationship or living together but not married but for now, we are in a long-distance but still going strong.
Are you tired of life?
I am getting tired of life sometimes but id tried my best to get back on track I just need to relax a little bit, inhale, exhale and never give up because life is wonderful.
How's mental health?
Ufff, my mental health I am in a positive state as of now, its overall wellbeing.
Do you feel burned out?
There are times we can not avoid this feeling as we face a struggle every day that we feel drained and exhausted and unable to cope with things we feel tired and we sometimes think everything is under our skin.
Yourself in the next five years?
Oh no! For the next five years, I am already in my 40's I guess I am already a grandmother lol.
If you could turn back the time
If I could turn back the time probably I am not where I am today, I would love to spend time with my family but as I have always been said that everything happens for a reason. There is regret there are some mistakes in the past but I have learned something from those mistakes which made me stronger.
Anything you wanna complain about?
I guess right at this moment in time I have nothing to complain everything is going well.
Something that makes you smile
Every time I see my article someone leaves a comment and rusty visited in it.
Anything disappointing lately
Oh! This was happening yesterday, I am disappointed with the cream I bought in the supermarket it's not a cream but it is a foundation I'm disappointed with it because it's a bit pricey yet I don't like to use it.
The latest thing that made you cry?
Will, I always cry every time, especially during nighttime because I truly want to hug my daughters but we are miles away and nothing can do but cry out just to ease the burden inside me.
Do you like yourself now?
Yes, I choose and love myself after all I am a strong and resilient woman that can recover from difficult times I enjoy my own company and I like myself why it's because I can able to write here in reading. cash.
What color do you see yourself?

Being a Housemaid
July 12, 2022
Whatever situation we have right now all of these aspects have a reason as to what we always hear the saying goes everything happens for a reason.
Hey guys, how's everyone today? As for me, I tried to be positive and productive as much as possible I want the negative thoughts to turn into positive impacts it's because it happens to me last week that I let the negativity enter my mind and so the laziness takes over and ends up with unproductive the whole week that's the reason why I am inactive for a week.
And for my today's blog post I am now more on the story of my life I know that my life was not that so interesting I am not a celebrity nor a famous but one thing is for sure life is precious.
As the title says above that being a housemaid or a housekeeper or whatsoever this kind of job was quite hard.
Why housekeeper is a difficult/hard job
It requires strength for you to be able to perform that heavy-duty like lifting and moving large furniture, vacuuming all big carpets, sweeping and mopping the floors, dusting, washing, and drying dishes, and cleaning the bathrooms, and kitchen all of these things.
Being a housemaid is not an easy job. Although there are no particular education learning requirements for this position. But employers may expect you to have excellent literacy so if you have any other choice or should I say if I had another chance before to choose a job then I would love to find better than a servant.
Did I regret being a housemaid?
I guess a housekeeper is one of that terrible and overlooked jobs that nobody wants. Too many people look down on this kind of job sadly much of what we hear in school is all about getting a degree but as we all know college is not for everybody way back then we struggle for our everyday living that we can not afford to send in school.
At the age of 12 years old I started to work as a housemaid for me to be able to go to school, in other words, I am a working student sometimes I can ask myself, Did I exist only in this world just to be a servant? It's because I never experienced how my childhood was all I remember is I am busy every day finding money to survive for living.
Until such one day, I realized nothing to regret I was already used to whatever my job at the moment and I am thankful for this. Everything happens for a reason we should be thankful for whatever our position. These may not be the highest paying job but there is no shame in earning an honest paycheck doing honest work.
Bottom line
Do not let anyone talk down to you, whatever our job as long as we are providing valuable service let's hold our head high and know that our job is important and honest.
That's all for today my read. cash friends until next time...
My sponsors God bless you all...

Do I Speak and Understand the Arabic Language?
July 10, 2022
First of all, I am thankful for being here on this site despite my absence but rusty didn't leave me not ignoring my presence, and because of that, I am blessed. Wishing that from now on, I can have more time here for I know this time I badly needed some money for the reason that I want to go back home soon so that I can be with my family.
So for today's write-up, I want to share if I already know and understand the Arabic language so without further ado here we go let's start.
The Arabic language is only one language with different local dialects and the Kuwaiti people used the modern standard Arabic.
What is Modern Standard Arabic
-modern standard Arabic or modern written Arabic, terms used mostly by linguists, is the variety of standardized, literally Arabic that developed in the Arab world in the late 19th and early 20th centuries; occasionally it also refers to spoken Arabic that approximates this written standard. Source **Wikipedia**
Six years ago when I decided to come here to Kuwait I don't have any idea about their culture, language, and so many things other words it was like going to a war without a bullet all I know and thought at that time was that I wanted to go for work as a domestic helper.
Although in Manila part of the training before the deployment was that there are 3 days to familiarize ourselves with the basic language were we applying for but then 3 days wasn't enough for it didn't sink into my head but it's okay as they said it is not necessarily that we must study their dialect as we can speak English for us to understand my employer.
Thus, my Kuwaiti Employer was good at English?
The answer is no as they only used it also as a second language.
So going back to the topic if I speak and understand the Arabic language will I can say that after over six years of staying here in Kuwait so far I can understand every time they are talking but I can hardly speak. But at least there is an improvement that they can not gossip in front of me lol. Because frankly speaking they are good at gossiping every time they get together with their families.
Why do I hardly speak Arabic despite staying here a long time
I can hardly speak Arabic the reason is my employer doesn't have a baby those workers here that they taking care of babies they are easily know how to speak and understand but for me and my employer every time we use English for communicating so basically it takes time for me to learn their dialect.
Closing words
It's good that before we go to foreign countries we know already their language, and culture it helps our careers and in our lives, if we are multilingual we have the advantage of seeing the world from different viewpoints.
That's all for me today thank you, everyone.
Flexing my sponsors thank you so much.

What topic do we avoid when talking to strangers or meeting new friends
July 09, 2022
Hey, guys, what's up it's me again and again same old story about why I am inactive for a week it's because of the busyness of my work but still thankful I am healthy and alive despite the hardship that I've been through.
And so for my today article, I am going to write about some topics that we need not mention when we meet new friends to avoid making them uncomfortable making people uncomfortable in the first meeting isn't a nice thing to do.
1. Politics
Why we must avoid Politic topics when we meet new friends and I guess not only new meet people even to our family it's because we all have different points of view, not everyone has a political view and as for me, I am not knowledgeable about politics.
2. Religion
Just like politics also avoid talking to our new meet people about religion it's because this topic is subjective and sensitive, some people find it a personal matter that doesn't like to open up to anyone.
I would give an example of my experience here in the middle east we know that majority of Arab people are Muslims and my employer is Muslim too. The first thing that they are going to ask when I come here is that my religion although they respect my religion those who are old people here don't like people who are not Muslim, they are trying to explain to you their religion so that we can be with them that's one reason why I am wearing a head jab it's because my madam's uncle was the one telling that I must wear it. That is why every time her uncle visit here I feel uncomfortable for he must tell something about how their religion going. This is only based on my experience.
3. personal finances
Personal finances I feel that this is something I like to keep private and that we should keep it to ourselves and not be shared.
4. Personal appearance
Nowadays personal appearance matters in the way we advertised who we are and what we stand and it's something personal that we must avoid talking to.
5. Offensive jokes
Words matter and have consequences sometimes for us we are just joking but for others, it isn't a joke for them sometimes it is offensive so we must be careful with the words that were going to tell.
Closing words
There are still a lot more topics that we must avoid when we meet new friends but I only focus on these five topics which are politics, religion, personal finances, personal appearance, and offensive jokes. Talking to new meet people is hard compared with talking to our old set of friends and I find it challenging because we revealed certain facts about ourselves or the one we talk could be impressed or turned off but the most important is we should be true to ourselves and hope that we get into the real conversation.
To my sponsors who stay on my block thank you so much, guys.

Always Running out of Time
July 02, 2022
How's everyone? I wish you all my read dot cash virtual friends old and new a happy new month it's time for new hopes and makes the best of every day.
It's the second day of the month and I am inactive again for a couple of days due to the workload that needs to be fulfilled.
Waking up every day with heavy feelings wasn't easy it keeps me unproductive it feels like I don't have time for everything.
Just like today, as I need to wake up at 7 am it's because the sister of my employer was here since last night and I don't like to wake up late when this lady arrives here.
Why I wasn't like the sister of my employer when coming here, anyway she's coming only during Thursday, it's because she has an attitude that it's hard to understand I need more patience I know they not hurting me physically but this lady like there is something wrong with her but because I know how to handle her attitude that sometimes I tell to myself if ever she's my employer probably I can not stay a long time in here and I know God is good for she's is not the one who gives me salary she only comes here to visit and on the next day go.
I know it sounds like I am ranting but in this way, I can express my feeling, and thanks to this platform sometimes we need to just right if no one is with us at the moment when we need someone to talk to.
When my alarm clock rang and my eyes don't like to open I wanted to sleep more but do I have the right to stay more time in bed? of course, no it's because here they think they pay for all the hours, I need to get up and fix myself.
Sometimes I often asked myself why there are poor and rich people? Please can someone explain it to me? Hahaha
I feel guilty at times it's because I know there are still less fortunate people out there who have nothing yet can able to put smiles on their faces.
Nevertheless, I know I am thankful for everything it's just sometimes that its part of human nature that we feel that we are left behind etcetera.
Closing words
Hopefully, whatever circumstances we're facing we still have time here, we need to put things in order so that we're not always running out of time without doing anything productive.
To my sponsors may God Bless you all.
Oh, wait before I end this since it is still 2 minutes of reading time and I am running out of words to add to make it 3 minutes lol,
I would love to give an update on my daughter's recognition yesterday as you know they are my inspiration to strive hard even though we're far from each other but my daughter makes me proud as a parent, And I know all parents when their children have an achievement not to brag but to inspire for us to not easily give up.
Meet my daughter Sophia she's been a consistent honor student since daycare and now she's in grade 4 next school opening. How I wish that I can experience that I am the one who accompanies her on stage to put a medal.
And that's all for today thank you for your time and effort to read the random things that happen in my life even if not interesting.
Till next time!
Planning to Convert 10$ Worth of Bitcoincash to Buy School Shoes
June 29, 2022
We have two platforms noise dot cash and read dot cash every time we were running out of budget then bitcoincash is on the go we convert it into our local money so that we can buy or spend whatever we needed for this.
It's the end of the month and it's recognition time for our beloved students I was seeing on social media all are happy, proud, and rejoicing posting their graduation rites and recognition rites and so as their achievements to their kids, well as for me being a mother of two I am very much excited when finally recognition rites happen even though I only witnessing it virtually.
The other day I ask my partner what time the recognition of my youngest daughter she's in grade 3 level and he answered me that it probably wouldn't make a recognition rite for the reason that many parents have not yet vaccinated, I guess some sort of hard-headed to some people that even how they tell them that they must take vaccines but still some people don't like to be vaccinated.
I was just telling that maybe they might be changed the decision for the school because mostly all they do is a recognition day.
And so today as my partner forwarded a message from their school group chat that they are having recognition rites on June 30 and that my daughter is one of the honor pupils and to be honest, I already had an idea that she's part of the honor pupils because she's consistent with her grades since when she was a kinder level up until now and the teacher announced that they must wear complete uniform when going to recognition.
And as a mother who wasn't there to see if her uniform was still okay because I saw it only through video call and upon seeing her school shoes, I was felt guilty because it was not good already and I know that needed a replacement and so I guess or I must convert 10$ to buy shoes to use for my daughter's recognition rites and besides she can use it for the next school year so much better that I buy now, but it's sad because the price of bitcoincash was very deep but we can't do anything but to sacrifice our savings because I badly needed it.
Closing words
I am thankful for these two platforms because here we can save and by the time we needed money no need to borrow from our friends and relatives for we have bitcoin cash in our online wallet.
And that's all for me today, God Bless us all
To my sponsors thank you so much.
Ten Tips on How to Become a Positive Person
June 28, 2022
Hi, dudes what's up? As for me, nothing is new always absent-minded, and end up with nothing to publish at the end of the day in short I am unproductive. But then thanks to my dearest friend @Chelle18 for this idea that she had given me and that I need to write even though it's already 1 am Kuwait time as of this writing so without further ado I start.
Tips to become a positive person
1. Think before you speak
It is important to think before we speak it's because one negative word or phrase can destroy someone's feelings and if we do not think about it we might say some cruel words that can demotivate someone it's a part of human behavior that due to our emotions about something we forget to think before we speak so might we start to develop this kind of attitude to avoid saying unkind words.
2. Always keep an open mind
We should practice learning to listen and accept some sort of ideas and opinions of others we open-minded people are an incredibly important trait as a person as well.
3. Discuss rather than argue
Arguing does nothing to develop a solution to a problem we should respect another person at all times to avoid the headache that can cause more wrinkles on our forehead lol.
4. Think Positive thoughts
Practicing positive self-talk and practicing gratitude can be helpful ways to start having a more positive outlook in life. If we think positively we will become productive, and less sad and we can avoid depression and so from now on we recognize and replace negative thoughts with positive and it helps a lot of us if we stay or spend time with positive people not positive with the virus but in positive thoughts.
5. Always say kind words
We human beings love to hear nice words in this case we feel that we are special that is why words are powerful and play a vital role they can build others up or can also tear us down so again we should always say kind words.
6. Be objectives about criticism
Criticism will for me I don't take it seriously better if we viewed it positively I know that it is not easy but if that's the way to make me feel good then never mind those negative criticism that can lower my self-esteem.
7. Respect the feeling of others
Respect is very important we don't have the right to play with someone's emotions and feelings we should accept somebody regardless of who they are or even if they are different from you. We should be thoughtful of others' feelings acknowledge them and apologize when we're in the wrong.
8. Don't stress other people's fault
I let them stress on their own lol, yeah as much as possible we should avoid stress, we can't fix other problems especially since we know we can not change anyone who doesn't want to be changed.
9. Engage in Physical Activity every day
It's good when we engage in physical activity
to improve our health and the quality of our life. Even aiming for 30 minutes of physical activity like dance etc. In this way, it can improve our health behavior.
10. Don't read or watch negative news
I guess we should only read and watch the positive happenings to avoid stress because we know there is so much uncertainty in the world right now.
That's all for me today may God bless us all
To my sponsors thank you so much.

Do you have any regrets in your life?
June 26, 2022
No regrets come first they should remain on the edge, as we get older there are some things that we realized that if only we do such a thing before it's too late it's because there are things that we can't undo.
Do you have any regrets in your life?
I came to this idea upon reading my sister's article you can click here https://read.cash/@maria_23/do-as-you-can-before-its-too-late-f8ebc5d if you want to read her write-up. https://read.cash/@maria_23/do-as-you-can-before-its-too-late-f8ebc5dd
so I wanted to do mine too it's because I feel and realize that this is also my regret.
Biggest Regrets at an older age
1, Not starting a business
Ever since I wanted to start a business I tried it many times and I failed it and I guess maybe it is still hasn't my time to be successful in the field that I am choosing, I always thought of one day whatever I desired that I make sure that this time I became successful for I had already some failures that somehow I take it as a lesson.
2, Not having a healthy body
Our body needs extra care starting with what we eat, and how we take good care of it but then when we are still young we didn't mind those harmful things because we think that we are strong and healthy late that we know by the time we get old our body will suffer from it and by this we recognize how we take for granted to have a healthy body when it is too late.
3, Not saving for retirement
I am guilty of this, to be honest, up at this time I still didn't have savings by the time that my body can't able work, and of course, I don't want to be a burden to my children when I get old and so I think it's still not late for me to start and have savings for retirement.
4, Not investing in stocks, real estate,
Will this one I guess I didn't know about the stock market, but then thankful that I know and learn a little bit now about cryptocurrency.
5, Not spending time on myself and my family
It hurts me this line I didn't have time for myself and my family but I know I had a valid reason for this. I need to work and sacrifice so that I can start a business and save for retirement.
6, Not expressing your feelings
I am used to it already and I always set aside my feelings I am good at pretending to do everything because I know that no one will care and so I need to make sure that I comfort my own I think I am okay with this no hard feelings and deterioration.
Closing words
The mentioned above are some cases that when we get older it will become the biggest regret if we take it for granted and so It's good that before it's too late let us do something productive and never waste time to avoid regrets in the end.
Flexing my sponsors they are great writers too.

Wishing Fountain
June 24, 2022
Have you tried to throw coins in a wishing fountain? Why do people drop coins in a wishing Fountain?
These practices will originate in Southern California culture, hence the tradition of throwing coins and making a wish became a superstition.
For me, I tried to throw coins in a fountain for we believe that our wish will be granted and that the spirits of the water will hear our wish and grant it. Various people say that throwing coins in a wishing fountain is one source of good luck, especially upon throwing it and the coins head up there's a big possibility that your wish will be granted.
Way back then before I came here to the middle east for work first thing I did was were going to Simala Shrine located somewhere in Cebu it is a well-known religious place in the Philippines because we believe that we Catholics devotees offer prayers and petitions to the Virgin Mary with the hope that our prayers will be answered and inside Simala Shrine, we can find there a wishing fountain.
What do they do with fountain coins
According to Kuya Kim Atienza, one of his segments at 24 oras that all the coins gathered will go to charitable organizations, and public service and some give it to the neediest people so whether our wish comes true or not after tossing a coin into a fountain still we can be assured that is likely going to someone who needs it.
Here are some of my wishes list
To be successful
To be happy
To be contented with what I have
Self-improvement
Good health
World Peace
Freedom
To be loved
To be a better version of myself
Inspire others
Try new things
Develop passive income
Invest in farm
Make a living doing what I love
Make a positive impact
Relax
Be a good friend
Tell interesting stories
Enlightenment
Success
Stop saying yes to everything
Does our wish will be granted by just tossing some penny on the wishing well
Unfortunately no, because if it is meant for us those wishes and we do our part God will do his part too. If we want to make a wish come true it requires a positive mindset and we don't expect that whatever our wish will automatically God gives exactly what we want.
Closing words
Wish that whatever our dreams will come true and all things will turn out fine and happen in the best way possible, The future is bright and beautiful, If you can dream it you can do it let's allow happiness to come into our life.

Thanks and Appreciation: Gratitude Challenge
June 22, 2022
You take for granted
As human beings, there are instances when we take for granted the things or people around us because we think that they stay forever even though we didn't tell them how important they are or how important those things that we have at this moment. I have so many things that I take for granted I only realized when it's already damaged and gone forever and so now I practiced appreciating every blessing that came my way small or big I maintain to admit it and tell the world that I am blessed.
The things you own that money can't buy
They say money can't buy happiness but it can buy leisure that can make you happy the money can't buy my health that's why I am grateful for I am healthy and can able to work to sustain my living and my family wants and needs, I am happy that I received genuine love that comes from my family and friends because we can't buy genuine friendship and most importantly my mental health and my peace of mind.
People who help you in your life

Honesty is the best policy
June 22, 2022
I don't know why some people are not afraid of doing bad things like stealing, killing, kidnapping, and some other things that eventually will ruin their life.
I read some news here in the Arab times that there is one Filipina housemaid that stole gold from her employer and tried to run away to the Philippines but at the airport, she was advised to produce the invoices with the gold that was with her since she doesn't have any invoices and so she tried also to sell it inside in Kuwait but then there are also rules here that when we sell gold we must see to it that we can show the receipt and so she failed again until the Kuwaiti citizen report to the police station that here housemaid suddenly disappeared took her passport and stole their gold and that in the end police officer send her in jail.
Why people are performing this sort of wrongdoing
In many cases that when someone catches up with their wrongdoing they tried to make any excuses try to make lies or explanations that they badly needed that's why they do such evil things but whatever the purpose of doing such steeling gold or doing bad things still there is no guarantee that in the future you will be successful because I believe that the money that comes from the bad ways it will blow like a bubble it will go through right away we can't enjoy it but rather it will give your conscience suffering from it.
How does my Kuwaiti employer trust me
I have had this belief since when I was young that doing bad things will ruin our life and that it's good when we want something to achieve we will work hard toward it.
I can proudly say that I am an honest person and that I am truly thankful for wherever I go whoever I can stay with me or together with me they can assure they are safe because I have this belief that if we steal something not belong for us our life will not be the same again and that in short, I believe that there is karma in everything that whatever we do to our mankind it will turn back into us.
I remember when I am a new hire here in my Kuwaiti employer, I know that our employer must first see to it what kind of person they hired right?
One time I clean the living room area on the sofa I notice some money, in my mind caught quickly an idea that probably they tried to trap me they test my honesty with them and so they do not fail because I am proudly saying that I am an honest person char, and when I see them I was quickly told that I saw money on the sofa and that they thank me for the honesty that I've shown and that even I know they mean to put in a couch.
At that time I am very careful to not do anything bad until now that I am 5 years of service with them I am very much careful so that whatever the trust they gave me would not break.
Closing words
If we want a peaceful life then why not do good things instead of wrongdoing it is a fulfillment feeling when we achieve our goals in the right way and no one will get mistreated.
That's all for me today to all my sponsors I will not get tired of telling this that I am thankful to all of you God bless.
Thank you for reading!

Good Old Days
June 15, 2022
Since it's in Bisaya dialogue so I tried to translate it into English I hope I can explain it in a way that you guys can understand.
`Teenagers nowadays are very much satisfied for they can able to afford to buy a burger and milk tea, rather than those kids in the 80s and 90s that we're able to eat bread "bahaw "(`meaning from yesterday's bread) `and juice" tab ang` " (meaning lack of sugar) `we need to attend first the prayer in the barangay.`
I was browsing my Facebook account when this writing caught my attention somehow I can relate to the message will it's quite a little bit of a joke for the old days of the what we called **Batang 80s and 90s,**
There were some instances that we can relate to our childhood days that we can only recollect all those years because we never go back in time as today's new generation was changed and we can not do anything but embrace it.
I was with my grandparents when I was in grade school I grew up in a province so I clearly remember how simple life was way back in the year 2000 it was this time that I know and understand what life stands for.
In our province my grandmother she's very religious she's the one who's going to lead the prayer in every barangay when there is a fiesta coming or when there is someone dead they called my grandmother to do the prayer we called it in Bisaya **"manalabtan" I don't know in somewhere in Manila or other places if they have this kind of stuff all I know is that it exists in our province.**
We have this every night that our patron mama Mary we're going to put it in the house to house we transfer it every day to those neighborhoods that they wanted to bring mama Mary to sleep in their house so when we transfer it we do prayer from we're the last house to the next house that was going to be in. Even though we still haven't electricity before however, we feel safe, unlike these days when we can't go outside at night as there is no safe at all.
At the house where we put mama Mary, they going to prepare food to eat for those who join the prayer, and mostly they prepare bread and juice that is why we remember those days that still we are young at that time but then others think that kids only join in prayer so that they can eat bread and juice after. This is only kidding aside because at that time we know that our grandparents wanted to be also devoted to all Saints.
Our neighbors and some nearby barangay think that if ever my grandmother can no longer able to do prayer when the fiesta comes as we all know that she's getting old so need someone to do to continue her mission as we called it. But unfortunately, I failed to do it as after I graduated from grade school, I go to the city to study in high school and I only visit again in the province once a while and that life in the city was different from the province until those practices of attending prayer every night were no longer in my daily basis that is why now when I remember somehow I feel the guilt inside me.
My grandmother died last year and I can't able to attend her funeral and even I didn't talk to her at the last minute of her life but I know she understands my situation.
**Message to my grandmother**
To my beloved Lola in heaven,
I am sorry for my absence when the time you needed someone to care for you. I was a long-distance from you, I know you understand me a lot ever since when I was a kid. You treat me like your daughter that I can not sleep before when I am not beside you, I am sorry when I need to leave you for I had got to do it. Hopefully, I can visit you this year though not physically but already you are in your grave and I feel the guilt for not being able to see you for the last time I know you are in God's hands now and you meet already Leah (her daughter)and my beloved grandfather. I love you and I miss you.
Though you can't read it this comes from the bottom of my heart.
Your loving apo,
Thank you for reading!
When Problem Appear
June 14, 2022
Is there anyone who doesn't possess any problems in life? I guess when we are in adulthood it's part of our daily lives we encounter a lot of difficulties and it's up to us how to handle such things.
How does it feel when we face a difficult time
I face difficult moments, over the past few days and that's the reason for my being inactive here I feel the emptiness, I feel that no one is with me and that I am alone in this chaotic world.
It's hard when we think no one understands our feelings, I wanted to just scream even if no one hears just to ease the pain that I felt.
I keep on asking why I encountered this kind of circumstance? A lot of questions in my mind did I do bad things to others? why do I suffer from this kind of stuff?
I kept my problems with me and I didn't share them with anyone for the reason that even though I tell them but there is in my mind that still, no one understands my feelings and that I should keep them to my own.
They said that problems can make us strong and independent individuals we should embrace them for it is part of our lives.
I always remind myself that these all shall pass through and that whatever I feel at this moment for sure tomorrow is another day.
Practice Gratitude
For us to fight back our emptiness and the loneliness, that we feel we need to be grateful for all the good things that happened not just only focusing on the negative side.
Today, I am grateful for @Chelle18 as when the past days that I didn't want to talk to someone but then she sent me a message through messenger asking if I am okay for I am uncommunicative for the past days and that because I don't like also to open up what's bothering to me.
In our conversation at first, I was hesitant to tell her, that's why when she asked me what was going on with me and why I am silent for a couple of days? I only answer her that I am just **gilaay"** meaning unwilling to do something productive.
Then I feel her sincerity a willingness to listen to my dilemma then I started to open up to her about what was going on with me. We exchanged words of wisdom about life that somehow I feel that at least my problem was a little bit okay when I tried to share it with someone else. Thank you dae for the words that enlighten me to do the right thing.
Closing words
May some of you think that I am a problematic person for I have always been writing about the emptiness and loneliness in my life and yeah, your right maybe I am okay now but then the next day again the same problem arises. It is not easy for me in this kind of situation but I need to fight for this may sometimes some suicidal thoughts coming my way but then God is with me and he did not let me do those evil things that happen in my life.
Probably that's all for me today I hope that rusty didn't forget me despite my absence for a couple of days.
To my sponsors, God bless you all.
Thank you for reading!
Sometimes Blessings come Unexpectedly
*June 10, 2022*
Yesterday night I and my madam went to her sister's apartment for sometimes I am helping her sister to clean their home, and for me, I am willing to help also as I don't have too much work in my madam's apartment as I've said that they were only 2 and so we go there like 2 times a week to clean and there were times that they give me some money and im okay and grateful for that matter.
Last night they haven't given me money but her sister give me some biscuits, green tea, honey, etc. She's like that if not money then they give some sort of food when I am going back home.
**These are the things that the sister of my madam had given to me last night.**
**Honey, and different kinds of tea.**
For me, I consider these blessings because not all same work for me that experience what I have experienced for we know there are a lot of housemaids being maltreatment by their employers.
11 pm madam decided to go home and we stopped in the ATMs for her to get money for it's my monthly salary when we led the way home while she was driving were talking random things as I and madam were the same age and so were the same vibes too.
Upon arrival at the house then she set in the sala while I inside my room she's called me and give me my salary and said that she had added ***~~**1**~~********0kuwait dinar or $32***** to my monthly salary from now on, I wasn't expecting that because I know I didn't have too much workload.
While handed the money she can see it my face how happy I am, while telling her a heartfelt message of a repeated thank you that I tell her I wasn't expecting this for she does not tell me. And she answered me that it was a surprise.
Sometimes blessings come unexpectedly, so whatever our desire we just continue to ask God's guidance for he is the only one who can provide for everything may he not give it late but for sure for the right time, he will provide it if it's for us.
**Closing words**
I am so much grateful for this increase in my salary as may some of you know that my house, is still going through the construction, it's a very big help for me as sometimes I need to help my parents too for they are becoming old and even they didn't ask for help but as a daughter, if we still can able to help them then we give them so that we will not regret it in the end.
I think that's all for me today, thank you for reading the write of my story for I don't have any idea of what to write then it's my everyday happening in my life that I want to write for in here read dot cash seems a diary for us.
To my sponsors, God bless you all.
Im still alive and kicking
**June 09, 2022**
Good day/ evening guys wherever are you at this point may you have a great day for the rest of the day,
How's life my read dot, cash family? It's been 3 days of being inactive for the reason that im not feeling well and I don't know now how to start my day I was being unmotivated by everything.
I was overthinking a lot of time to the point that I had so many opportunities being missed believe me no one likes this feeling of me even how many times I've been telling myself that I must not overthink a lot and must go with the flow but then it will just a couple of days and again I need to remind myself over and over again like what's going on me?
But then even though sometimes I was out of track I know that it will pass through I only just needed to be strong by the time that this again loneliness and homesickness attacked me.
I am still alive and kicking as I know, even though I have been through a lot of discouragement in life I still have a mission to achieve.
I was envied by those people who have a strong determination in life that they can easily get back on track and that I need to do it moreover.
Anyway, enough for my negative sentiments so that you guys can't be infected as I know negative is contagious too just like corona various that can spread throughout.
I hope and pray that this is a way that I can be active again as you know guys I need to collect or save some money as I have already planned to start a small business soon.
**How much money that I wanted to save**
If only I had 100 thousand pesos, I wanted to start my Small Business in our province but as of this time, I didn't still have this amount so what I did was need to grind as to what others do when they plan for something.
If God has given me a chance at this opportunity then I would be very grateful because I badly needed this small business that planning to build as we all know not all the time I am here in other countries time will come that I was going home and not returning here to my workplace.
As of this time, I wouldn't tell you what business I am planning will I know @Chelle18 knows about this as we chatted sometimes but then probably when I started it that's the time that I would let you know guys if everything is okay.
Furthermore, it is one way of telling myself, to not be unmotivated to strive more in life so that whatever im planning on it will become a reality not just only a plan and forever only a plan because I will not do anything and wait until the time running out.
**Closing words**

$500 a day for life
June 06, 2022
Wazzup everyone how's the first day of the week? Will, I know all of us are a little bit sad for we experience a little indifference by our dear rusty I can't deny to myself that I am being awful for the first day of this month, but then I keep on praying that I hope whatever the reason for this I still in the positive side and so let's continue to be productive and appreciate every little thing that we received.
I read an article by @Jijisaur you can click the link here for you to direct to her account and you can write yours too if you are running out of topics as we all know finding a topic every day is quite difficult as I've experienced for my 5 months of being in here. https://read.cash/@Jijisaur/pick-only-3-pills-65059562
As you can see from the photo above it stated **pick only 3 pills** but if you want to pick all it's still up to you .Your article your decision and your choice so for me as you know ,I am a lazy person so technically I choose only 3pills so let's go.
Eat without consequences
I am not a person who can eat anything I mean we all know some people who can dare to eat anything like those who can able to eat some exotic foods I don't mention any kind of exotic food but for me, if ever I can eat exotic food probably I can only eat those when it's only for the survival of course when we had nothing left to eat then there's is no time to choose what we want.
While sometimes I watched some mukbang videos I can sometimes wonder how they can eat those foods a lot of foods on their table and they must finish it in one eating session without any consequences after they eat all those foods, However, I want to try it probably when I come home I want to try to its different kinds of foods but with the foods that I am longing to eat for a couple of years.
Pet lives as long as you do
As we all know that pets are not have the same life span as human beings and if only I had wished that if only they can live with us as long as we are still alive then I would be happy about that, as I am experiencing how difficult when our pet bid goodbye to us especially the dog as they are the one who is acting like a human that they are very loyal when it comes to the one who takes care for them.
$500 a day for life
Oh, if only I have this amount every day then possibly I am the happiest mother on earth, why? It's because of a lack of money I sacrifice the happiness of my 2 daughters and so as myself, but then God didn't allow this as he want us to strive hard that there isn't easy money. We can take it if we are willing to sacrifice and only we keep in mind that despite all the struggles that we experience in the end there is happiness.
Furthermore, I read this while browsing on Facebook, *****You can make all the money in the world but if you not making memories with your kids or investing in your kids, you still feel in life.***** and somehow I feel sad at the same time I felt that these are harsh words too there is a part of me that as if someone is questioning my capabilities of being a parent or a mother. These words somehow I feel pain in my heart perhaps because I failed for being a mother but in some way or another I know to myself that whatever I am doing now is for my kids and that sometimes I didn't mind myself but only for the sake of my family.
Closing words
That's all for me today to all my subscribers, upvoters, and commenters, may God Bless us all.
My beloved sponsors, thank you so much.
Till next time!
Countryside: The place where I belong
June 05, 2022
Wake up with a heavy heart, I feel that my body was separated from my soul, my mind is out of nowhere I am here in the middle of a place wherein no one can talk to for something that's going on.
It's been a long time since I am far away from the place where I belong, the place where I can feel my true happiness, my satisfaction of all.
I was just an innocent girl in the countryside 30 years ago wherein I can feel that I am safe and that no one can harm for this is the place where I belong.
But then life is unpredictable, surprising that we couldn't figure out what would be gonna happen in the future.
I couldn't imagine that I can leave my mountainous place in the safest place I know, simple life that will not exist anymore for it vanishes as the years pass through.
In the province of Cebu where my mother give birth to me, and where my grandparents were the ones who takes care of me when I was in grade school, we're my innocent mind started all those were just a memory that stays forever in my heart may the years passing by.
My grandparents have already gone forever and so has the place where my life started.
It's so nice to see the place from our younger years that by the time we go there all those things happening will flashback in our minds that we can only reminisce but it will never be the same again.
As part of growing up as we became busy chasing our goals, we have many responsibilities, that sometimes we forget to relax our minds, and so as our souls.
5 years ago, and I know time flies so fast that I couldn't recognize that it's been 5 years that I am herein in the place that I even in my dreams didn't realize that I can come here in the middle eastern country. Because I know how ignorant I am way back then, but as I said that life is unpredictable and we can't predict where our destiny going on.
I couldn't imagine that I can able to travel miles away from my homeland and how strong I am going in a place with no one with me but me, myself, and I. It's just a matter of strong faith in God that I can leave him all my worries and fears at that time. And God never leaves me I know that because I can not able to stay here if not because he's the one who put me for where I am now.
Closing words
Reminiscing our younger years somehow can put a smile on our faces and at the same time can make us sad because there were things, persons who will never be able to meet again they become only a memory for the rest of our life.
I missed my grandparents but I know they are now in the hands of our Creator, my grandfather died when I was 15 years old as far as I remember that was the first time that it broke my heart because I was with them when I was in grade school my grandfather was a good man that God didn't allow him to suffer he is just having a fever and that he doesn't like to go in the hospital and so he died. Because we have this belief that if you are a good person God doesn't allow you to suffer some illness and that the better he takes as early as possible so that he will rest in peace and that we all know that was happening with my grandfather.
That's all for me today my read. cash family, I was just thinking about my younger years that's why.
To all my sponsors thank you so much.

I earned Forty-one point thirty-eight dollars/41.38$: The month of May
June 04, 2022
As I've mentioned in my last writing article I wanted to share how much I earned during May.
How many articles that I was published last month
Most of us here would like to track down our performance, earnings may our writings, or it could be how are we able to perform so that we became a good use of this community.
Though we put goals on the first day of the month that we should be productive in a way that we can see to it that we can write once a day but then for my 5-month-old being in here no one time that I can able to fulfill my goals of writing one article a day but thankfully I can say is that I had an improvement the way how to handle some negative situation that if ever I feel the laziness ate me, I should try my best to not wallow that emotion I must do something good to be productive. So much for this for May, I was able to publish 23 out of 31 days, and that accumulate a total of 41.38$ how blessed I am to have this amount by just writing some stuff on a daily life basis.
Hopefully, by this month, I can able to publish an article once a day.
I am grateful for
For my 5 months of being in this community read. cash was giving me much more opportunities, giving me the courage to write some thoughts on myself, I learned to appreciate every little thing, no words can explain how blessed we are having in here even though sometimes we struggled to find what we are going to share but at least our time and mind occupy for the positive thoughts and things.
And so to all of you who become my virtual friends here I am thankful to all of you may we not know each other personally but believe me when anyone here who is absent or missing for not being able to write for a sure way find ways or find time to look what's happening in you for we know that we are like a family that everyone missed if you are not around, just like for example @JRamona20 when last month, she's being absent for 1 week for she's having in vacation to her family in the province and we wonder where she is for we all know that she's very active when it comes to reading some articles with her co-users that's why we easily missed her when she's absent in our comments section.
One also of my virtual friends from Iran who is not getting tired of reading my write-up was no other than @Ellen-he for she's also very active here I like how she gives her thoughts about your writings and that I am blessed to have her as my virtual friend.
There is this lady @Chelle18 who was also considered my friend as we always had chitchat on messenger when there are things that we didn't understand then we don't hesitate to ask our own opinions about something and thanks to you may God take away all your debt so that you didn't overthink a lot.
Probably that's all for me today and to those, I've mentioned or tagging I am sorry guys but just to let you know that I am thankful to all of you, I still have more virtual friends here that, I wanted to give a message of appreciation and so probably next write up I will include those who are always there for me no matter what.
To all my sponsors thank you so much.
Emoji Prompt
June 03, 2022
This month or in the upcoming year, I want a fat pocket and a slim waistline char but yeah, who knows the power of positive thoughts, there is nothing impossible when we are not letting negative impact affect us.
How's everyone today? Are you having a good day? Or having a bad day? Well regardless of the situation let's thank God for everything that he showed up may it be bad or good always remember that there is a reason for everything and that if we offer it to him or we ask for guidance from God then for sure we wouldn't go in the wrong direction.
So much for this, I would like to share my write-ups for today, and since I am across the @joydigitalsolutions article it saves my day as you know my imagination is just a limited stock lol. And so whenever there is someone who wrote some prompt then it's good to grab it so that our goals of publishing one article per day wouldn't miss any.
Feel free to visit her article if you still haven't read it click here: https://read.cash/@joydigitalsolutions/emoji-gaming-660ea00d
So let's start
1. My current mood 🤔Thinking face emoji-
As I've said my imagination is only limited stock that's why when I am writing it takes a lot of time-consuming as I need to think about the next words that I am going to jot down.
2. Always in my bag💰
I wish I had a bag full of dollars lol, kidding aside, I just don't want to be serious at all hahaha, to avoid scattering my wrinkles on my forehead because, to be honest, if only I had enough money as of this moment probably I can fly going to my homeland but then this doesn't make sense as for us to earn money we need to sacrifice a lot, but then the sacrifice is a great feeling if we can see the fruit in it, by the time we harvest our fruit of Labor.
3. Right now I am craving🦐
Yeah I am craving shrimp and so I go to the freezer then I take this and after I finished writing and published it then that's the time I am going to cook as probably little time my madam woke up already as it is this time to her to get out her bed and going in the kitchen and ask for lunch.
4. Im scared of 🐍
Of all animals, the snake is the one that I don't want to encounter in my whole life.
5. Favourite weather ☀️
For now, since I am here in Kuwait in which there are 4 seasons Summer, Winter, Autumn, and spring, I experience this for over 6 years and so I choose summer because during winter I can take the coldness to the point that I can not take a bath every day, unlike during summer it's easy for me to take shower even how many hours.
That's all for me today, flexing my sponsors thank you so much and God bless you all.
Until next time!
Food and Drinks that I need to let go
June 02, 2022
First and foremost, I just wanted to say hi and hello to everyone I am here again trying to write something I know it is too late now as much as I want to write 1 article a day but then I don't know what happened with me that my mind is out of nowhere to be found we're still on the second day of the month but then I am now struggling to find a topic to be written.
To my sponsors thank you so much God bless you all.
So let's talk about the topic that I am going to share at this moment in time it's all about food and drinks that I like but as much as possible, I want to avoid now.
Drinks
1. Coffee
Coffee is truly I love to drink it every morning sometimes it's okay for me not to eat breakfast as long as I drink coffee with bread or something that I could eat together in it. I know it's hard to let go of this as I used to drink in it when I am here in the middle east. Why did I decide to let go of not drinking this I noticed that it's hard for me to sleep, and so I hope I can able to avoid coffee.
2. Soda/sofdrinks
I am not a fan of soda but still, I want to eliminate this because I want to live a healthy lifestyle char.
Speaking of a healthy lifestyle I want to try to drink these 3 ingredients
**Lemon, cinnamon stick, and ginger**
I accidentally saw on Tiktok that these 3 ingredients are good when you want to try to lose weight, you just need to boil it, and after that set-aside to be cool and that's it you can drink it every day as it is safe for these are all organic and good thing is upon checking it is available here in the kitchen, and quickly I take 1 lemon, cinnamon stick, and ginger I put in the pot I add 2 glass of water then I open the gas stove and low fire and wait to boil and after boiled it already then I sip a little and the taste was good because I can smell the mixed aroma of the 3 ingredients and I love it.
Food
We all know that food is life without food we die but at least we need to eat fairly because a few days ago I've always seen mukbang videos in which they eat a lot like there is no tomorrow they do not care about their health because of most of them eaters with unhealthy food. Others could tell that at least if they die they eat whatever they wanted to and that is their way of thinking.
On my side, since I am in a middle east country I had a lot of foods that I missed like fish, while here we only eat most of the time chicken as my employer doesn't want to eat fish and meat.
But for now, probably the foods that I want to avoid are chicken, nakakasawa na talaga.
My thoughts,
I wanted to try to eat vegetables and I hope I can do this as I didn't like to eat this before but now since we're not getting any younger we need to take good care of our health, as they said if you love your family then we should love ourselves too by not abusing it because eating without limit can be harmful to our health also.
That's all for me today my read .cash fam supposedly I wanted to publish it yesterday but I became busy because I and madam were going outside and I did not bring my mobile every time we go outside.
Edit
Since today is already June 03, and this is the second article that was supposed to be published yesterday and so I want to cover up my writing I hope I can write 1 more today in the evening because I want my goals to be real.
Thank you, everyone!
