I would like to learn how to be grateful for each day I live. I don’t want to see all beautiful things on this earth, and just neglect it because to me its just NORMAL. From now on, I commit that I will be thankful for all the wonderful things in my life, even for the not so wonderful ones. I will be keen in observing the blessing and small surprises in my life, and be quick to do something to show that I am thankful. This is my pledge, to live a meaningful and purposeful life, and to be grateful come what may.

Things I am grateful for today
1. I’m back at my original seat, and I don’t have to transfer to another workstation. I love my pc here.
2. I’m grateful to be able to do oopss, even without grabbing and chasing for it.
3. Happy that my blog is now on the first page of Google.
4. Happy to have a loving husband.
5. Happy that everyone is healthy at home. A little bit worried of the lump on mother’s knee but I know everything will be okay.
6. Grateful for being able to stick to my plan of saving ronel’s paycheck.
7. Happy for being closer to my dreams everyday as we gradually work on it.
8. Happy that by early October, will be starting our very first sari-sari store.
9. Happy that we now have electricity again. No more, tapping into our neighbor’s house.
10. Happy to reach more 252 posts in a matter of 3 months. With that, I mean active blogging. As you can see on my archive, I started this on November, and never really understood what blogging means. So I stopped, and in march, that’s when I started to do it actively. As in, I have to write everyday and read blogs to learn more. I’m happy of what I have accomplished as for now.

Thank God for this life, for this wonderful life. Whatever life I may have, whatever happens I will have joy deep inside that no one can steal and I will not let anyone or anything ruin it. As long as, you are with me.

I would like to say thank you to all of those who supported and voted for me. I will never forget this guys. And who knows? i might just be able to pay you back some day. Maybe, you will join a contest and then you will ask for my vote to. One thing I can say, we sow what we reap. So, I am extending my gratitude to all of those who keep on voting for me on the poll, to those who left comments and emailed. To tell you guys, I was really super motivated to win, because of the first prize which is a domain name for a year, that’s what I wanted most. I don’t care much about the money and the blogger design (not that much, but it’s still attractive for me, hehe). So, I really had an active campaign and participation in promoting myself. I told friends and family to email so they can vote for me. And I posted here too in my blog, so people will know how to cast their votes on me. The voting is still on going until 31st. The score is pretty far. I know that there are a lot of people who emailed for me, but on the poll my score is really low, very far from aloha wedding, so right now, I am not hoping for anything anymore. I am not sad though, because just today I was able to successful convert my previous url http://irishblanca.blogspot.com/ to my own domain name, which is www.irishblanca.com, so guys, please do an update on my url. I am happy because you know how much I aimed for it. This might be a simple thing for you, but to me, this is a great stepping stone on my blogging journey. I am still a newbie in this thing, and learning new things is really fun, though could be frustrating at times. But, my friends are there, and I thank you all for that. Don’t worry that much now, I am not that *addicted* or inclined to win first place. I now have my domain. I am just so happy that Carlota, gave me an opportunity to participate. This contest has been a massive success, more than I ever thought. Thank you guys! Win or lose I am happy and thankful!
