Before I Die, I Desire to be Leave Memories to Cherish Forever!

Greetings my friends here in readcash! I am so glad the strong winds had subsided. It was one scary night although I managed to sleep, I could hear the gruesome sound of the wind, howling like a fox, and like a monster, it felt like it was waiting to devour someone who steps out of their home.

Anyway, I wish to write an article at this hour because I woke up early at six, I usually wake up at around seven together with my baby but this time, I was earlier than him so I took this opportunity to write an article. But lo and behold, I can't think of any so I resorted to reading articles, and not too long after, I read @mommykim's article on a prompt that she had joined and then I immediately commented after reading it that I will join the said prompt too!

Thank goodness for the challenges and prompts! Here's the list of questions that have to be answered:

But first, I'd like to thank my sponsors, you guys rock!

CHILDHOOD MEMORY

I have so many childhood memories. I am realy glad that in my childhood, there were no electronic gadgets because I was able to enjoy it to the max especially when summer comes.

And since it's almost summer, let's go down the memory lane of my childhood summer days.

As soon as the ricefields start to dry out and the paddies are safe for running, the entire neighborhood of kids would go to the mountains of dried hays. It becomes our playground. We jump, do acrobatic moves, do everything enjoyable without thinking of injuries. We would even setup a fashion show or beauty pageant there with friends.

In some days, when we feel artsy, we make kites and fly them in the open field. Everyone would compete on who's kite flies the highest. We get a good spanking after because our broomstick at home had missing sticks as we used it to make the kite.

After a whole day of sweat because of playing, we would often go to the beach or to the nearby river to swim. Then most of the kids' moms would be running after their children because they have been away from home the entire day and would not submit to go home because there's so much fun in the waters.

DESERVING OF LOVE

Everyone deserves of love and I strongly believe this.

There might be times when we feel like nobody loves us but the truth is that there is someone. Our parents have unconditional love for us, there's also our friends, and I mean genuine friends, those who stick through.

And above all, God loves you and me. That is a truth that is mentioned several times in the Bible. Whenever I feel like I am not being loved, I turn to that truth because on earth, there are so many things that we can't be assured of, including love, but God the Father had expressed this by sending His begotten son to die on our behalf so that you and me can experience eternity with Him.

Someone dying for us truly means that we deserve love.

LOFTY THING BEING EXPERIENCED?

I had shared before that we are in the in-law's right now and I am not feeling comfortable already after a week of stay, we stayed in the last week of March then we went to the city and stayed there for a week and then went back here.

Now, I am already uncomfortable, as if there are eyes looking at me. There are things being said behind me and I don't like this feeling and I had been thinking about it since last night, I told my husband that it would be better for me to go back to the city and he understood. He said we will go to the city by Thursday but that's a Holiday so I am not sure if we could pursue that. I am still waiting for a package as well so hopefully that will arrive soon so we can go on our way.

WORST HABIT

I have this habit every after eating meals that when there are pieces of rice in my plate, I'd pick them up and play with it with my thumb and pointfinger until it becomes a cute dark ball.

This is a nasty habit so whenever I am done eating, I'd immediately stand up and put my plate in the sink to avoid doing this.

GOOD THINGS AFTER SUFFERING?

I must admit that most of our successes happen after going through a lot of challenges. This is actually normal because we live in a fallen world.

Our life is not perfect and when we want to achieve certain goals in life, we have to strive for it and striving requires time, effort, sweat, blood, all these things we categorize as suffering, most of the time, only a few are willing to go through that and endure.

So yes, good things come after striving and persisting. It requires consistency, it requires energy, resources, and focus.

Even mastering a certain skill requries time and consistency. I read somewhere that if you want to be good at something, we have to spend atleast 10,000 hours practicing the craft. That's a lot of time and persistence is definitely required.

BEFORE I DIE

Dying is a fact that happens in 1/1 person. No one will go out of this life alive and I mean that's with our flesh. I do believe that there's life after death and before I die, I hope to be able to leave good memories especially to my son. I hope that whenever he thinks of me, he would think of the good times we shared, that he would remember me as his loving mother, one who had been with him through ups and downs. The one who taught him of so many things and that he would be proud of having me as his mother.

My season as a mother had begun since the day I held my little one and I know this season will only end when I die so I promise to be a mother who will not just provide him with the things he needs but also one who would continuously pray for him, bring him to the knowledge and love of our Lord Jesus Christ, someone who would support him in his goals in life but also will rebuke him if necessary.

It's quite challenging but I pray that God would grant my heart's desires.

That's it! Thank goodness I was able to finish this before my baby woke up! I still have time to be reading articles!

xoxo,
