Even at the times that everyone feels peril, or fear for their lives, especially when calamities have struck and etched fears and worries in our hearts, or defeats or failures recently experienced make you feel down and depressed.

But we know that even the most unpleasant things would certainly come to an end, just like how rainbows are present at the end of the storm. It remarks that there's always a new chance to relive life, and start again in building yourself to a much better life.

First sunny day after a few weeks of rain, taken at 7:22AM this day.

It really feels relieving that once again, after being stuck for 2 weeks of non-stop rain plus a storm recently struck, that we are finally feeling the heat of the Sun. This indeed, a very great news for everyone Especially:

  • To the road workers who are doing very big efforts to clear up the debris left by the recent landslide.

  • To the ones who have done relief operations, it is efficient for them to travel and deliver the aid for the people who are greatly affected by the recent storm and to the rescue teams who have been tirelessly doing their greatest efforts in helping those who were badly injured, and the ones that survived such tragic natural incidents off to safety.

  • And to everyone else, the citizens. This is a great time for us to do things that were hampered during the stormy days, others are busy doing the laundry because their clothes got wet in the storm, while others are already busy with their lives trying to earn money by working to sustain the family's needs.

I am really amused with my fellow people here in my community, even though life's a bit tougher these days, I did not hear complaints from anyone. Resilience is alive, at its best. Everyone is doing their own businesses, trying to help their own families, and not whining as to where are the relief packs just yet. Everyone is just patient, and the good news is that relief packs has finally arrived and I hope they are given to the most deserving ones.

A bit of a highlight for today

I know this ain't too much, but this is inspirational enough for me to keep going here in read. I am happy that for a bit, I've been growing here in the community. And that even though in the past, there are times that I haven't posted anything in a day, but still I felt relief to have my little efforts be paid more than enough and slowly starting to bloom. Just hope that it doesn't make anyone bored, just yet haha. A little progress indeed.

Now how was our day?

Since it has been while since it became a sunny day, we are starting to uncomfortable with the hot surroundings especially that another blackout occured so no electric fans for us. My father was also busy placing the firewood he has recently acquired under the sun to dry it and it was from near the riverbanks. Wow, the effort haha. It really saves us gas from using our stove. And late this afternoon, a neighbor told us to collect the firewood that he had accumulated in his yard, and we gladly accepted his kind gesture, especially that the family prefers to cook in traditional ways despite today's time.

And since we are on a tight budget for food, my mother had another recipe and we had Veggie Spring Rolls for lunch and dinner.

Such yum, even for a low cost side dish, it's packed with nutrition. It feels great that my mother made a twist in our dishes, as we also had veggies the last few days. Wondering what might be available for tomorrow.

Closing Thoughts

Even if there are things that annoy or make you feel down lately, you should hold on the Positivity in life. And that move forward, even if you had a traumatic or very painful experiences in life. There may be dark days present in our lives but, there always a ray of sunshine giving us hope that even at hint of darkness, light always finds a way through it.

Hope you somehow enjoyed this, my fellow readers. Bless you all.
