Hello beautiful people!
I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. โจ
Sitting right now in front of my desktop, typing, reading my customer's concerns, trying to solve their issues, empathizing with them and assuring them that everything will be fixed and everything will be alright. I am good at reassuring people I do not even know that everything will be fine, but here I am almost giving up as things seems to not be that way I wanted it to be.
Its back. Its back again. The feeling of emptiness. The feeling that what I have done from the beginning seems to have been to waste. I don't know if it has really been.
Maybe I am trying to make things fast?
I am trying to see if I have done something good in life. I am trying to see if I have some achievements in life. I am trying to see if what I am doing is what I really want.
But you know what, it seems that we ourselves do not see greater things that we have done already. We cannot see the success we already gained, because we used to define success as achieving greater and greater and greater things. We used to see success as having a lot of money and doing everything we can do freely. Actually it is, but there are success that we just can't see as success because it is different from what it used to be.
As far as I can remember, it was the time when I get my eyes checked. Before I get home, I made a stop at McDonald's to have my late lunch. While eating, my dad called me and asked where I am and how was the checked up goes.
I told him that everything went well and I am at McDonald's eating my late lunch and he said, "naks! McDo McDo na baby ko ah!" And I said, "Haha. Minsan lang to pa. Tyaka, 89 pesos lang naman eh." There he told me how I really can live the life I wanted as I was able to afford that amount of money already. As according to him, before when I do not have any work yet I used to save up my money for things that is more important. But now, I can buy and eat foods I want without thinking the amount I will spend on it.
He considered that act already as one of my success in life. He told me that I do not need to rush things as I am still young. I need to enjoy life and I need to appreciate the small wins and success in life as bigger things starts from small ones.
That's when I realized that I am focusing on things that will just make me stressed out but never appreciate all the good things that already happened.
That in life, appreciating the small things can lead us to greater things. We just need to take things one step at a time.
That's all for today beautiful people. If you have any thoughts about this, feel free to leave it in the comment section below. Let's interact. Stay safe always! Xoxo โจโบ๏ธ
