After the holidays, it’s easy to feel heavy—tinatamad, a little sad, or not ready to face work again. But what if we shift our mindset? Instead of saying, “Ay, balik trabaho na naman,” why not say, “Lord, salamat dahil may babalikan akong work.” Not everyone has a job to return to. Not everyone has stability, a source of income, or a purpose waiting for them after the break. Your work—kahit mahirap, kahit nakakapagod—is still a blessing. It provides. It sustains. It gives you a reason to show up and keep going. So today, take a deep breath. Say thank you. And walk back to work with gratitude in your heart. 🫶🏻
