Each time I count my blessings, “My Cup Runneth Over”.
Tudaya Falls, Kapatagan, Digos, Davao del Sur
I have a lot to thank for in my life. I am even thankful of the trials and pains that I went through because without those I would have not known joy, happiness and triumph; I would not know how to appreciate what I have and what I can become. Without those, I would not be able to emphatize with people who are still suffering and I would not be able to want to help. I would not know the difference between needs and wants and I would not know that a lot of people are having a hard time putting food in their mouth while others throw away theirs without remorse.
I am thankful of my parents especially my mother who emphasized the value of honesty, education and hardwork.
I am thankful that I was able to travel to countries like USA, China, and Australia that taught me a lot about different people and their cultures.
I am thankful that I was able to explore a little bit of my country by mountain climbing, and other outdoor activities. Our beaches are beautiful, the sceneries are magnificent, and our people warm and friendly.
