GRATEFUL. THANKFUL. BLESSED.

Life has been good to me for the past 22 years of my life. The combination of happiness and sadness, and success and failure makes every step of this life worthwhile. As Voltaire once said, “God gave us the gift of life; it is up to us to give ourselves the gift of living well.” To live well is what I am looking forward on this 23rd year of my journey and I know I can live it well with beautiful people surrounding me. 

With this, I thank everyone who gave a minute of their time to greet me and make me feel loved on my special day. All of it are truly appreciated. All of it are reminder that I should continue being a blessing for others and appreciating all the blessing I am receiving. All of it make me want this gift of life to be lived well.

From the bottom of the heart of this girl, THANK YOU! :)

AUGUST: Favorite Month ♥

Favorite of the month is here! Hooray for the 8 months of waiting! :)

As I've mentioned, August is my favorite month. First, because it is my birth month and second is because I don't know if it is just coincidence but good things usually happen during this month of the year. 

There's just one thing I don't want about it — RAIN. Oh well, I know I cannot get rid of it so I've learned to enjoy celebrations with it. 

I don't usually wish for any material thing on my birthday (err, I'm turning 23!). I only wish for my loved ones good health. But let me have this simple wish for myself now: for time to slow down. I always feel so happy during this month that time really flies so fast!

It's the 1st of August today. I have 30 days left to enjoy before Ber months, which are the fastest months of the year, come.

P.S.
I also love December but not as much as August :)
