the present is year is about to end in about 22 hours and 37 minutes. another year to look back to. there were good days, and of course there will always be bad. it must always be balanced or else, you're abnormal.
this year, i got to know a part of me better. i knew my weaknesses and strengths. before, i was always asked this same question for a job interview and i would tell the most shallow reasons. but now i know better.
my strength is my family. they keep me going. i realized that as vain as i am, i'd rather send all my money to my family back home. that's how less spending i am on myself. my reason is, life is short. i have to make the most out of it. but not for myself, but to those people i love and care about. i want them to be happy. making them happy makes me happy. i want to make them happy hanggang kaya ko.
my weakness would be my emotions. i often let it interfere with my daily activities and even with my socializing. because i am not a pretender. i show what i want to show, but with consideration to others, of course.
this coming year, we cannot promise ourselves to change this, or do that. because we don't have control of our tomorrow. all we can do is really show kindness to others. do what would make you happy today. live well. love much. laugh often. happy new year from bahrain.
