I am sick while writing this , with sore throat and slight fever. I can't talk much coz it hurts my throat more. I can't close my little store though and just lie down in bed coz i can't afford to lose sales for one day , "sayang ang kita" 😅 Christmas is near so we need to double our work and save some for the holiday season. So i was selling and communicating with hand gesture and nods only and would just say huh, hmmm, and smile. 😅

Speaking of Christmas , hmmm... My dear @alicecalope tagged me and asked what would be my version of a "Perfect Christmas". Thank you bhe for tagging me as i feel important and my thought is valuable to you , hehe! I like your look now , your going back on track and it's cool. Keep it up bhe, love yourself more!

When i was a kid my "Perfect Christmas" was when my mom make it home during the season. She's a single mom and working far away from us , that's why her presence during Christmas was a perfect holiday for me and my two siblings. She would go home days before the holiday bringing us some goodies and new clothes and shoes.

Mom would hang three Red Christmas socks and would ask us to write our wishes and put it inside the socks. We are so happy to attend the mass with her wearing our new dresses. We are excited to open our gifts from her and see what's inside our big Red socks. If what we asked from santa would be granted. As always she tried her best to grant our wishes.

Our young heart cherished that moment and it always give us joy remembering it upto now that we have our own family.

My friends and I used to do some outreach program and it would be nice if i can do it again though i know it's quite impossible this coming season coz of various factors such as the financial difficulty brought by the pandemic and the ongoing inflation.

But i would love to do it again even if it's not Christmas. I would just have to save some so i could share some to a few.

At present , i have my list of people that i want to give joy this coming season aside from family. I just have to raise more fund for it. Just a little to share so i could help to make them feel the spirit of Christmas.

I consider being with my whole family always a perfect one. I am from a broken family and there was a lot of times that we celebrated it away from each other. I have high value of celebrating it with my whole fam every year. Giving me happiness beyond receiving any material gifts.

One thing that always makes it perfect is i don't expect any for myself . That's why a simple or little token would make me happy. Just the thought that someone made an extra effort to give something to me is a big thing for me. My heart would really feel great and my day would be awesome . Not only every christmas but in any day , i appreciate even the littlest things someone thought of giving me. "Mababaw ang kaligayahañ ko" ( little things can make me happy) .

For this season though , it would be a "Perfect Christmas" if the two souls close to my heart would get through their ordeals before Christmas. One i am praying for a favorable result from her bone marrow test and the other one to surpass the stage of grieving due to her husband's demise.

It would be perfect too if we could share some and push through our plan of gift giving even to a few some. Praying for enough means to do it . Hope it'll materialize. Nothing beats the "Joy of Giving!". Sharing is Caring as my 6 year old son favorite adage , so let's go! Let's spread happiness and love through giving!

I wish everybody here a Merry Christmas ! Hope our version of a perfect one be a reality. For all of those who take time to read my article , take note that you are making me happy for real!

And so my dear @alicecalope hope i satisfied you with my thoughts of a "Perfect Christmas". Thank you once again!

To all my sponsors! " Salamat Po ng Marami! "
