Love Or Money!
Hello Everyone I'm here again, I hope all of you we're doing good. The title of my article today is "Love or Money".
Before anything else let me ask you this, what is the most important thing in your life? Is it love? or money, comment down your answer "haha"
As a human being we live in this world wherein money is the key for us to live, if we have no money we cannot buy what we need and want. Money is important, but wait is it love is not important? Of course love is important. Without love there is no peace, without love there is no unity. Love and money plays the most important role in our life because without them we cannot live.
***What Money Can Do?***
Money can give you what you want, money can buy expensive things, it will change your life, it will bring into luxurious life, the food that you eat is all delicious any time you want to go to the vacation you can because you have money. Sometimes money can bring you to the things that you will never expect. There's a lot of things that money can do in your life, your daily life will be easier when you have money, that's the power of money. There's a time in my life when I see rich people. I say to myself, Lord , how blessed they are, they have a lot of money, they can buy whatever they want and go to the special place but you know what God said to me? Money can't buy Happiness, they may have a lot of money but they are not happy. They may have a lot of money but love does not exist. I feel rebuked that time but thanks to God.
***What love can Do?***
Love can give you peace and joy, love is also sacrifice, let me share with you a word about love from the bible:
`John 3:16`
`]“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.`
This is the perfect definition of love, the love of God to us who is willing to sacrifice His son to rescue us in our sins. Love can do anything just to make us happy, love will conquer everything, love will forgive. I live in a poor family my parents is a farmers it is enough for us to eat three times a day, but we are not complaining why we are poor because we believe that there's a purpose of everything why God is putting us in that situation, yes we are not rich but we are rich of love, the love of our parents is more than enough to be contented of what we have now. You know what's the best about being poor is that we appreciate little things that happen in our life. Everything will happen in the right time, a time to grow.
***Closing Thought!***
Every one of us has different ways to walk. Some people are blessed because they have enough money to satisfy their wants and needs and have a loving family, physically, emotionally and mentally satisfied. Some people may not have enough money to satisfy their wants and needs but they are satisfied by love.
For me, if I am given a chance to choose between the two I would prefer to choose love because you never know how long the love of your life will be by your side, I want to show them that I love them the most, money? For me it will be a bonus because I believe the word God will provide, as long as I have loved the people around me I know that God would provide all my needs in daily life. I am not saying that even if you have no food you need to choose love. What I mean is that choose love over money because you can earn money anytime. Money is also temporary, love will long last.
Thank you for reading my article, God bless us All😇

It's Been A Month!
Hello everyone, it's nice to be back "hihi" . It's been a month I haven't written an article because of my busy schedule. Since I have a lot of appointments these past few weeks I will share with you some of the things that make my day busy.
By the way, before anything else I want to greet you all with a glorious day! I hope that all of you will do well.
*****My Whole Month experience!*****
My whole month experience will be like this,
The first thing that I do these past few days is that I review all my lessons. I studied all my lessons because our midterm exam is coming. It's a very tiring day. I work on my activities like video presentation, powerpoint presentation, reporting and many more. It is not easy to be a student. We experience stress, emotional breakdowns, but despite all of that I encourage myself to go through because I believe there's a reward that awaits. Second will be taking up the midterm examination. I have 7 subjects and 20 units to carry. It's very hard to manage your time because every subject has a lot of activities, projects to do but I am still fighting through it all. I'm always praying that God will give me enough strength to carry all of these, I feel the stressful moment that time my hair is falling down my eyes is very tired I have a lot of eye bags I am lack of sleep, I can't eat on time because I need to prioritize my exam, I sleep late and I woke up early because I have exam, I conquer all of that with the help of God, my family and friends, I thank God for the strength that He has given to me, you know God is my sustainer of strength. Lastly, finally the exam is done. I need to rest. I am waiting for the results and for my grades.
The other day I got my grades and I feel like my efforts are all worth it because I got good grades. I'm so overwhelmed with that, finally I have time to myself after seeing myself, I am comfortable enough that my parents will be happy.
*****How do I manage my time during my busy days?*****
In these I will share with you how I manage my time to get through all of that. During our busy days we cannot do the first things that we do because we have a lot of things to do, so here's my technique to manage my time. The first thing that I do is to list my schedule on my notepad what will happen next after the exam on this subject, the second thing of course I will do the next one but if I finish the first exam early I do the activity because even if we have an exam we also have the activity "haha". That's my way to manage my time listing the important things that I need to do.
*****Closing Thought*****
As my closing thought, as I shared with you my whole month experience, I realized that every time that we have in this world is very important, we need to value the time that God has given to us. When we are in a hurry we realize that time is very important, time is very valuable. One thing that I realized is that we also need to have time to ourselves. We don't need to stress ourselves because we have only one life. We cannot turn back time, eat on time, sleep on time, don't abuse yourself, yes your grades are important but your life is more than important. As a student and as a human , one thing that I've learned in life is to give value to ourselves.
Thank you for giving your time in reading this article ❤️
God bless you all and Stay safe😇

Fighting My Battles!
*****"You are not a true winner, when you run from your battles"*****
Wazzzuuuppp! Have a great day to all of us, here I am again sharing my experience on how I fight my battles
Everyone of us has different battles and not everyone in our surrounding relates to what we feel. We have these battles that we need to fight alone. We don't need people to help us. What I've experienced in my life was really like a roller coaster, like you don't know what you are, the things you need to do for the sake of everything will be alright. It's really hard, you know, "hihi".
Life may be fairly unfair, we have this problem that we don't need to experience, Oh no! life are you playing with me? "Haha" , kidding. Ok here it goes I will share with you my battles and how I fight this alone the story begins in 3 2 1 go "haha" kidding again.
When I'm in my first year collage second sem, I am so stressed because there's a lot of activities that I missed, I don't know what I'm going to do, I don't know what the first thing that I will do and it's getting to my nerve like what? Really? Seriously? I've experienced this? I didn't experience this before and I don't know how to solve this huge problem, yes for me at that time that was my huge problem in my life because you know it is not easy when you get failed grades ``huhu". When it becomes in school matters I will do my best to work on it because I know my hard works will be worth it when the time has come, I don't want to have failing grades though yes failure is part of our success and I can't suppressed with it, i get failing grade that was the first time I fail in my whole life in school, everything that I've sacrifice my time, and effort will in vain, I was so disappointed and heartbroken that time it's really hurt seeing your card with failing grade, I was crying a whole day and night I can't get over I can't believe it, really? I failed? When I'm in a middle of my sorrow I didn't notice that my mother is listening outside my room and heard all my "drama" "haha" when I came out my mother talked me and said, you don't need to cry because you fail be happy about it, don't be discouraged, let that failure be your motivation to learn more and to fight, motivate yourself don't stop, chase your dream you are not a true winner if you will surrender easily, I am not a demanding mother if what grade will you give to me I will be happy because I know my daughter, she do her best to pass. The encouragement of my mama motivated me. All the words that come from her mouth are true.
All the pain that I've felt will all vanish because of the words of my "mama" . Yes, I don't need to worry because I fail, I don't need to disappoint because I feel, all I need to do is to motivate myself. I fail and that means I have to improve something. I have to grow.
***How do I fight my battles?***
The first thing is to accept the fact that not everything in this world will be yours, accept the fact that you have to become a failure because in life you don't need to always be a winner.
Fighting your battles is like fighting the beautiful future that awaits you. Never surrender, nor retreat.

My Daily Routine!
Hello Everyone it's me again, have a wonderful day to all.
In this article let me share with you all my daily routine, what things that I am doing everyday and the things that I love to do,
First when I wake up early in the morning I do devotional talking to God early in the morning, journaling my reflection from the message of God, after I clean my bed, brushing my teeth, eating my breakfast and taking a bath, feeding our cute dog, after I clean our house while listening Christian music. After all of that I go to my room and checking my phone if there's a class as what I've expected yes we have a class, after the class it's lunch time I cook my lunch and eat, after I go back to my room and checking back again if there's a class if not I will do my activities. After all my sessions in the morning I go outside I saw a beautiful sunset I feel so relaxed after all the stress things I do inside our house, while staring at the sunset I see my parents in the garden I help them, watering our vegetable garden, watering the flowers and cleaning our yard, I enjoy doing my routine everyday I love to work, one of my stress reliever. I love the feeling when we do our daily routine with my parents and my siblings.
After a long day it's afternoon preparing myself for the evening session "hihi" as in session? "Kidding" first of course cooking our dinner but not me who cooked our dinner it's my mother, the cooking skills of my mother is so good and I love it when I see her cooking our dinner because I know I have a delicious dinner again. After eating I do my skin care "char hihi" yeah I have a skin care but not expensive "haha" I wash my face with a soap, after I rub it and I will apply my skin care, so refreshing I am ready to go to bed.
Before I go to bed I check again my phone if there's an activity as usual there is, I open it and after I decided to close it again because that's not my first priority every night, here it is my first priority every night I go to my room I get my Bible and read it, after reading I meditate the word of God if what that's mean to me, what is the message of God for me, after praying and meditating I wrote it on my journal my realization and the lesson I've learned from the word of God, after I go back to my phone checking up my activities and I do it immediately so that I will not be stressed with the coming activities. After answering my activities I go to bed and get ready to sleep.
***It's a joyful day.***
**I'm looking forward to tomorrow's events in my life.**
In conclusion, doing the things you love is one of the keys to being happy. Being with the people around you like your family is the most joyous day ever, the happiness that nothing compares. Everyday in my life I didn't expect something to happen, for me every morning that I wake up it's a normal day for me, to fulfill my daily routines, nothing special. Every situation in my life I appreciate little good things that happen because in that way I didn't ask for more I am contented with the life that God has given to me, my family, my friends and my love ones, I love them and I'll treasure them the most they are the source of my happiness not the material things.

A Peaceful Place To Go!(The People around Me when I'm down)
Hai Everyone It's Me Again! Have a great day everyone.
In this article let me share with you the peaceful place of mine when I am lonely, stressed and hurt. How can I overcome my breakdowns, the people around me when the breakdown visits.
Sometimes we need to have a break, break from work, school. We want to relax. We have many plans, we want to go there, we want to travel, for us to be relaxed but sad to say all those plans are just a plan or should we say they are just a drawing "Haha".
Do we really need to travel far away to get relaxed?
Well for me it's a yes but if I have not enough time or money to travel why not relax in my place? Our place has a lot of farms like sugarcane, rice, corn and vegetables. Sometimes when I get past the farm I feel so relaxed listening to the birds song and embracing the cold and fresh air. Sometimes I go to a river because we have a river here. I like watching overflowing waters. Sometimes when I feel bored you know I catch fish because I love it, that makes me feel so relaxed.
Do animals help us to have peace of mind?
For me, yes, because when I am stressed with my study I'll rest for a minute and playing with our dog will be so much fun, animals will also give us peace of mind. Before I don't like animals especially dog but when my father adopt a dog I fell in love with it especially when he come to me and want play "haha" dogs are like human too but they are better to play than human😅
Sunset will give so much peace in mind when I see the sunset I feel like I'm in heaven so nice watching sunset. Watching trees who are dancing because of wind. When I feel like the situation seems so hard I go to a peaceful place, a peaceful place to go is the church, listening Christian songs, sometimes playing instruments that will refresh my mind. Another thing that will refresh my mind and make me relaxed is that when I see my family happy, when I see them talking about life, I am so blessed because my family didn't engage in the technology we have time to talk about. Praying will also give me peace of mind before I go to sleep.
Another reason to make my mind at peace is that talking to my friends, sharing my problem to them, their words of comfort gives me peace. It's nice to be with the people who cares you the most. My church mate is one of my pain relievers every time I have problems even if I don't share it with them. When I see their beautiful smile, my heart is full of joy. Things may get easier when I'm with them, hanging out and having the things that make us joy, enjoying the day with them. Walking with them to a long street is what I like the most when I'm with them.
We have experience depression in our life because of the things that will hurt us like rejection, bullying, being not respected by the people around us sometimes we decided to end it that's why there's a lot people who committed suicide not to end their life but to end their pain which is wrong if you want to end up your pain then learn to socialize to the people around you because they will give you peace of mind, to the people you trusted the most, your family, and your true friend.
"The peaceful place I want to go is my surrounding the people around me and the nature that God given to me"
I hope you like my story that's all Thank You for reading, God bless everyone 😇

I'm the Newbie Here!
My Resting Place!
Hai Everyone it's me again, I'm glad to be back.
Sometimes we feel tired, tired from everything in this world because we are just humans, we are not robots. In this article let me share with you my resting place when I feel tired.
One of my biggest fears is to be left by someone I love, but we cannot force people to stay by our side forever. There are people who come into our life just only to give us lessons because God allows them for us to be strong. In life we might be hurt, disappointed or unloved by the people around us that make us feel like we are not important to them but we need to bare in our minds that it's just a salt in our life.
When I was in Elementary days I can't go to school everyday because we have not enough money to go to school in a week there will be 3 days I go to school because I need to work for my allowance, that time I am so tired I'm just a little kid who have a big dream but I experience those kind of work, I motivated myself I tell to myself that I don't want to be like this forever.
I am tired of my life until I grow up. I will continue my studies. There's a time that I feel tired emotionally, I am physically tired, I am tired of everything in this world. One time when I go to Church our Pastor talks about the word "REST" and "TIRED" he says when you feel like the world give you so much pain don't give up, when you feel like you are tired from everything in this world don't give up, just let your tiredness give it to the Lord because in His hands you will find true rest. When I heard those words my tears slowly falling down because how many times, I thought I have no place to go when I am tired, I have no one to talk when the pain we're getting worse but I was wrong there's only one God who can give me rest and I believe in His hands I find peace and if I will rest in His place I am safe.
In the past few days I carried heavy problems and I feel so tired of it but how did I conquer this? Well I go to my room talking to someone who will give my heart and my mind peace and that one person is God. When I'm done crying in front of Jesus I opened my Bible and I found the word that makes my heart cry again.
*"Matthew 11:28*
*Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest."*
The only one who can give us rest when we are tired and carrying heavy burdens is God, he is not blind to our tears he cares for us, he is always watching for us, he is always guiding us. Our only hope when we think that there's no hope, He is our refuge, our Redeemer our savior and most of all He is our loving God. Imagine how deep the love of God is to us, he can carry all our burdens if we allow him to carry all of this for us.
As an encouragement to all, it's Ok to cry when the pain is deep, cry all you want, cry it to Jesus because he listens, he will never fail you. Imagine this while you are crying in front of him? He will embrace you with his biggest love. You are loved by God, you are worthy in His eyes❤️
"YES, GOD'S HANDS IS MY RESTING PLACE"

I'm the Newbie Here!
Before anything else I want to greet you all with a happy day!
One of my closest friend introduce to me this site and I found it interesting but when the first time she told me to join this platform I hesitated because I am not good in writing and I don't have any idea what I am going to do, after a month I decided to join and here I am as a Newbie and I am grateful to be part of your community.
As a Newbie here it is not easy for me because I don't have any idea where I am supposed to start, I don't know how to introduce myself, but I will do my best to express my thoughts to all of you and I hope that you will appreciate me😌
I will introduce to all of you about myself and a brief background about my family. I am Langtot hihihi '' I live here in Bukidnon and I am 22 years old. My birthday is on February 29, 2000. I have 3 siblings the oldest is a girl and she have her own family now, the second one is a boy and he is still studying, the third one is none other than of course it's me and I'm a girl and I am still studying also and last one is a boy he is working now he chose to work than to study well that's his decision. My parents are farmers and I am so thankful to God because even if they are just farmers they can give whatever we need in our studies. One of the amazing things that I discovered in my family is that even if we are not rich in terms of money, we are rich in terms of love. A love that satisfies us.
The main reason why I decided to join this platform is because one of my biggest dreams is to become a writer. I love writing actually, especially when it talks about life and future.
When I was in my Elementary days one of my teachers asked me "what is your dream?" I want to become a writer, ma'am I replied" my teacher looked at me and gave me a big smile, she said go for it you will become a successful writer in the future. To be honest when I heard those words my heart was crying because there's one person who believed in me.
I believe that to be part of this community will give me courage to go through with my dreams because it was the right decision at the time that I decided to be part of this family. I'm so grateful to all of you for welcoming me here. I am also thankful to my friend because she always encourages me to join this, I think this a million times and here I am, I am here now.
In my first time here I read a lot of stories of different people and I was inspired and amazed by that because you are all talented and smart. I hope that I will be like you someday, with different stories from different people I've learned a lot from.
Of course as a newbie here I accept corrections from all of you guys because I believe that we need to have a teachable heart for us to learn from our mistakes. Thank you so much for your time in reading my story. I promise that next time I will do my very best to create unique content that will entertain you all. That's all God bless everyone 😇
