My Dream House
Growing up in so many places seems to matter nowadays. Where when i was a kid, we rent from one place to other until we have a place to call our own. Never did it come to mind that i will ask my parents how they acquired this and that. Yet we are thankful to God because we have a shelter we can call our own.
Having a decent job is a blessing in disguise. It was when i least expected it and never taught it would come to life as early as it arrived. The opportunity that knocked my world in a blink of the eye, so i embrace it with all my heart trying to help my family with my siblings still in school. I worked and later try to enjoy my single life. I took some travels with friends as to enjoy what life brings in. I never taught of buying a property when there was a chance because my income is not too big. Though it was the wrong move in my life.
When i started to build my own family, there i was sadden not taking those chances before. When i still have a little extra penny to pay some mortgage of a simple property to be own. It was a day by day struggle trying to manage all the time and money just to acquired something. Yet all the circumstances forbid us by having one. We really go real deep down on all hardships, it was like in the middle of the ocean when a storm happens. We struggle so hard as we still rent a small space to be our shelter for more than a decade.
However, we have a family's favorite place: my aunt's place. It was a property with a 2story house and a space around where fruit bearing trees grows tall and plants that blossom. Every year, we came to visit this place in special occasions like, christmas, new year and birthdays. My aunt used to let us sleep over during those special occasions and my children are loving this place.
Then pandemic changed our favorite place. It becomes empty and we are taking care of it to look around timely. My aunt together with her family, leave and go home to their province in Bohol to live there. This place was for sale and of course, it cost much. I tried to inquire if i can acquired it through pag-ibig fund yet my loanable amount is far from the selling price. To my desperation, i try to message from celebrity and politicians who can help me have this property and paying them in terms. Though i never had any answer even one. So i sometimes bought a lottery and still no miracles happen.
Today, i got to spoke to the buyer and her whole family. They have the almost 3million paying price and they are on going making some money transfer. So it is a 100% sure that they will acquired this property. And it breaks my heart a bit. Being here in this place will now be part of my memories and now is a time to let go.
Maybe soon i can have a place of our own. I just have to bid my goodbye of this lovely place we cherished the most. Soon we cannot visit this place and it will be pinned as my dream house then.
Hope the new owner will cherish this place and continue to make the surroundings blossoms. Goodbye my dream house of ours.
Points of View
I had notes when times that i want to write or just answer some random questions around me. And here's what i found in one of those pages...📝
If given an opportunity abroad or far apar seet, would you risk your relationship for a Long Distance Relationship (LDR) or break-up?
Opportunity is very rare like it's now or never. But relationships it is always around that needs to be work on. I might say, based on my experience, we both decided to call it off because of distance but after a year or two we still met along the way. There i proved that no time nor distance can stop what is destined to be... Break-up isn't an option it is just taking all the risk and embracing all the consequences that comes along.
What if you found out that your husband cheats, would you give him another chance?
Well this is easy to answer but if you will be in this situation it will be the hardest one. You know why? I hate cheaters, we all do for sure. But if this one comes to my life, i will say it depends. It depends if we have children. Because as a mom, it doesn't matter how painful it is too bear just for her children not to have a broken family. In my life, i have seen so much of a broken homes and it never do good to their children. Yet things will never be the same again. Giving a another chance might be my choice but it will always be in my mind that he can still cheat for another time.
What will you do if you won a lottery with a million dollar jackpot?
As i have always prayed, i want to win a lottery so i can buy a house and lot for my family. Being in a small space, we rented over the decade, is quite uneasy. When you have no freedom at all. When the landlady and other gossipers keeps sneaking what you have and how they can use such for the benefit of them. It was always a struggle and much more when our incomes are not enough for our necessities. Then i can pay all our debts too. Also i want to buy more property where i can make a resort and a farm so it will be a good investment for the family. I want to have property investment so my family can enjoy more grounds and spaces to play around. Though for now, i just have to work harder since i can't afford to buy a lottery ticket yet.🤭
My head seems so full of big dreams. My thoughts play more of those big dreams and just like any point of view of anybody, i know some thoughts are mutual and some are not.
This is just my own opinion and point of view. I dont give conclusions that this is the right way or answers to the question. I just want to give you some thoughts over the matter.
I have been here for quite sometime yet not so active on making articles. Though i read some articles and comments here. Then i heard about randomrewarder and rusty yet never have they notice me. But what makes me confuse is some user told me that i am tagged as spam. I do email and message as what they advice me. I waited and still did not receive a reply. Is my read.cash account banned or blocked as i was tagged as spam. I really do not know all the stuffs working here and i want to know what are the dos and donts that i will be not a spam here anymore. Hope anybody can help me.
Thanks.
Being a mother is not that easy.
I have to work solely in this time of pandemic as my partner got to take good care of the kids. It was hard, it was so exhausting yet we cant let strange or not blood related people to oversee the kids. Covid-19 is real and i can bear all the exhaustion than risk the life of my kids nowadays.
I just hope this pandemic will soon end and heals all the sick the soonest. It is so hard seeing someone losing a love one or seeing someone who was kinda deprive of having enough oxygen. I pray that the world will be heal and all mankind must learn the lesson it will left.
Antoinette - My Missing Name
My name is Mae but I was born in June. It was the 13th of June, the feast of Saint Anthony. So my parents decided to name me after the patron saint. My father likes Antonia (old fashioned name here) yet he had a second thought that when I grow up with that name I will feel bad. They decided to find another name, it was Mae Antoinette, what a lovely name.
Ann or Mae-ann is the nickname they gave me. I grew up and used to be called with my nickname by our family and relatives.
Though when my birth certificate was registered, they only found out that the name they have given me was not totally followed. I was only registered as "Mae".
My name was registered and trying to change it was quite expensive and my parents cannot afford it. Then I was sent to school and followed the registered name.
When I was in school, they call me Mae, Maya or Mayang. Friends and classmates just call me whichever of the three.
It is already a practice on the first day of school every year, we always have to introduce ourselves in front of the whole class. It includes your name, your nickname or what name do you prefer to be called, your birthdate, where do you live, hobbies and other details you may want about yourself. After i introduce myself, they all get surprise how short my name is and they thought my birth month is in May only to find out it is ij June. Though as they ask, i will not answer them since it doesn't really connect why name is only 3letters: M-A-E.
During my high school and college days, my friends called me the same. Then when they got the chance to visit our home, they were too shocked to hear my family call me Mae-ann. They keep asking me why when my name is only Mae.
From that onwards, I have learned to tell the story behind my name. Now i am here miles away from my hometown, still they asked me why. And since I am now earning maybe I could pay to return back the missing name. Though i love the Mae Antoinette, I was respected and being raised as Mae. I am here because I was named Mae and I think it would disrespect my parents if I will change my name to add up the missing one.
I have wish before that my name could have been Mae Antoinette, though I am thankful then that I was only named Mae. Because for sure, my parents get to teach me easily how to write my name without having headaches.
So for now, the missing name will remain the shadow of me behind every story and behind every screen name i will make in writing.
Hope i introduce myself vividly in this community. I may not be a professional writer, however i really tried to get my writings be appreciated. This is Mae signing my hands off.
I am still learning about these cryptocurrencies and still studying how to get along with all this.
Though i first know about bitcoin, i was not attached to it even how big the figure it goes because it is like reaching the impossible.
As a low income earner, I want to earn for a living and bitcoin is unreachable. So i took a glance at other crypto and found BCH. It was near imagination because in it I can earn a bit slowly and its fees is not too big. Now, i want more of BCH, i just need to be notice and be determine to pursue my dreams. BCH goals to keep to make my dream house come true.
This is not a day or a month goal but a lifetime. Hope for BCH to fill my wallet.
Maybe yesterdays and my today are better left forgotten.. it may not be so good.. so i better sleep and hope tomorrow will be a brighter day.😔
Safety Health Protocols
Covid-19 pandemic brings us more to be cautious in whatever we do.
As basics, we do wear face mask and wash our hands as needed and use alcogel/alcohol to disinfection our hands as needed too.
In our home, we do remind the kids always to wash hands regularly. Even they are just inside the house watching TV, they need to wash hands upon doing another thing or simple apply alcogel to their hands. Gladly, they follow and I am also reminding them if they already had taken their vitamins. To me, as a mother, I want not to be blame because my kids wasn't taking care of so well. So as long as they are okay and safe, I am relief. They are my priorities more as this pandemic hit the world.
In our workplace, it is so strict when it comes to health protocols. Even talking need to be avoided unless if it is work related. But the image I share is our resting area at workplace. We have distances between each chairs and have disinfection team to disinfect each chair after every use. Each chair have labels, finished disinfection and for disinfection labels. After every usage, we will flip back the label to red(for disinfection) so the disinfection team knows which one to disinfect and after he disinfect the chair, he will flip it back to finished disinfection. So another one can now use the said chair.
It is amazing we have all these safety health protocols. I just hope all will sustain this from home to work or anywhere else. Because it is for the good of everybody and not just for the few.
Stay safe and healthy everyone.
Hope this may help you in your community too.
Grow Old with Him
I was broke many times and almost lost hope in life. I have loved yet not loved in return. Or perhaps it didn't work out well.
I am not the ugly duckling though, but i lack self-confidence. I am the silent one who settles not to dig out and shed those hidden tears. I was a bit secretive.
Until someone came my way, i was moving on and planned not into having a serious commitment. Though time heals all wounds and pains. It was in the most unexpected way. We met halfway our country, he was from the north and i am from the south. Opps, we are free to cross each other borders, just remind of a scene from some series.
Anyway, to make it short, God has given me the love of my life. He loves me so much that i dont expect i could have. He is not wealthy but we are happy. We have the ups and downs yet we are still together for more than a decade, 13 years and counting to be specific.
And now it is his born day, though we aren't fortunate this time to have enough, so i just want to write something for him. For the past years, i wrote for him and he reads it happily. Now, i wrote for him for the world to know how much he means to me. If i will have another lifetime, still, i will choose to grow old with him. He is there no matter what happens. He always loves me even at my worst. And he is the only one that i want to grow old with.
Hope we will have more years together. Through ups and down, i will always hold your hand.
Happy Birthday Dempsey!
This is me, at my not so best, though this is written from deep within.
I love you always.😘

Another year with the pandemic and it's getting harder. I have two sons and a daughter and parenting makes my life more complicated. As we struggle to survive this, i work solely for our family since my partner lost his job. And now i dont know if i am a good or bad mother as i felt my parenting is somewhat not as good as it is.
So help me God. I need more guidance.
Pushing Boundaries, Expanding Opportunities
As we continue this year, we've met some crossroads along the way. It was like facing the storm where you do not know what will be there for tomorrow. If you still have the same or left with nothing at all. And the change it brings in each path wasn't that easy to embrace.
For we, as individual, has our own edges or as a company with restrictions. It doesn't matter who you are or what you have. Though in some point it is nice to be playful with it and take those boundaries as a stepping stone. Because those boundaries, borderlines, edges, restrictions or sometimes we called limitations are just instrument to bring the best in us. But take note, it is the most challenging part in everyone's life.
Pushing out our limits need more courage and determinations. We should be sensible enough and liable to whatever it may bring. Of course, we cannot simply go beyond the border and have it done our way. It is like going into the war, we have to be prepared as we move any further.
As we push it furthermore, we can expand our opportunities to fail or to succeed. Many people reached the spotlight for pursuing their dreams. And it wasn't a nice shot a first. Some start from trash and reinvent each time until they came to the top. Some failed because they never try to go beyond the borderline. But failure is part of learning. We fail because there are lessons we need to learn. Sometimes we stumble and fall yet we have to manage to regain our post and try it again. Because at the end of the day, all we need is hope and strength. Hope: that things get better and strength: to hold on until we reached our goals.
So if yesterday is a disappointment and today isn't better. Remember, there is always tomorrow to look forward to and start anew.
Noisecash in our Life
For so long, i am trying to find a descent online job to add our household income, yet i cannot get a good one. One reason is, we dont have a good and stable fast internet connection. Second, my device is low tech and not competent in the market. Third, I got a permanent job and my time is too tight to fit all my duties including as a mother of three. And lastly, i do not have a degree or diploma to be competitive enough of the skills needed online. So i tried finding an income generator online without investing a lot of money.
I found friends online and help me find income generator sites. Though it was not that easy. It takes more days, months and years until one unknown friend shared his experience in noisecash. Even though, we have not personally meet yet we are in the same race, I trust his words. I know he has a good heart and he has no intention to fooled anyone. Then i discover noisecash.
My first day in noisecash is a bit of exploring and learning how it works and observing how to fit in. Then it generates an income. It wasn't big but it is real. It is not just about gossips you hear, it is a legit site to recommend to anyone.
So from that day until now, noisecash is a blessing for our family to survive this pandemic. My partner was retrenched after the 4months lockdown and I solely work for our family. We have so many debt and savings are no more. My jewelries given by my mother was all pawned and was never redeem. Before if budget is too tight, we also pawned our appliances just to get through. I dont want people to pity me, this is our lives, this is real talk. And i am sharing the story of our lives have change a bit, because we found noisecash and it greatly help us a lot. Last week, we earned a bit and it help us to buy milk and diaper for my toddler. This week, we dont skip meal because we have bought rice and vegetables from our noisecash earnings.
Right now, as we in noisecash grows more, i hope it will continue to downpour more blessings to those who are especially in need. I know, it is so hard to find one true person with a good heart online but just believe that being kind will result to good karma.
Stay strong bitcoincash so noisecash will grow more and more.
This is our story and i am proud to be less fortunate with God in our lives.
More power noisecash.

Just want to share something.
After i went out of work, i drop off
on a bakery outside the company.
When i was about to pay, I saw a signage of GCash.
So, i ask the cashier, if they will accept GCash payment. Then she replied yes. So i was glad not to hold any coins or bills for payment as precautions also for this pandemic.
But to my dismay, she was hesitant when she receive my payment. A certain amount was deducted to my GCash and not the total amount i was about to pay because I have a QR voucher that Gcash gave me a few days ago. And if the QR voucher and Gcash deducted from me will sum up the total amount i paid. So to keep them calm, i left my phone number to keep me updates incase they have more questions or clarity about my payment.
I was not suppose to post this but this is the 2nd the already. Yesterday i experience the same when i both a loaf of bread at **** pharmacy. Yet if i use gcash in 711 with QR vouchers, no questions ask. Why..o why.. Aren't they oriented over the matter? Whom they will learn more and hope it will not happen again.
It's the 1st day of the third month of 2021, still COVID-19 is all over the news. It may be written on a newspaper, news on social media, heard on radios and seen on televisions. It is still making all the hardships to those who are less fortunate and strive hard to struggle each day to survive. I cannot say I am poor because I have a job and rent a little space for us. But how can some less fortunate ever make it to end till this pandemic ends? How can those who become jobless when their company closes as this pandemic continues? Can they feed their own and their families? It is so heartbreaking to see those beings who are in need when i cannot give them help because i am also struggling. That is why, i wish for this another month of the year, hope we can all surpass the trials as this pandemic threatens the world more.
Stay safe everyone.😊
