Find the joy in your life

Yes, Joy. Happiness.

I am happy when I am able to help (any help possible) to my family or to my friends. I am happy when I fulfill my parents expectations of me. I am happy when I can make someone smile when he/she feels down. I am happy when I can be of company when someone needed it the most. But have I been happiest? I will say, not yet. And if those happiest times will come, I will gladly embrace every moment of it. Have you find joy in your life? What makes you happy?

Have you brought joy to anybody? Yes, maybe... I did. Okay, need to ask my family and friends (and the people I know) about this. I have always been a good daughter to my parents and a kind and generous Ateh (older sister) to my siblings. I just hope I made them happy in every little things I do for them (except for being stubborn sometimes). To my friends, maybe I did brought joy to them too... For being supportive and someone they can lean on when times of need (not financially though). They are the people whom I would ask someday if I had brought joy to them.

Let us find the joy in our life. Whoever and whatever that is that makes you happy, value them before its too late.

Kuya, Island babysitter?! cool grin And you imagining hula dancers. uh oh Go to Hawaii then. peace cheers
El, sorry to hear your expectation was going further beyond the reality istongue laugh rolling on the floor laughing

Anyway, a big brother to me means a lot as I have no big brother for real. So one day about 12 years ago I was getting so jealous at my friend who kept talking about how her big brother treated her very wellconversing moping Since then, I wanted to find a big brother for me. I have one now who is my ex-colleague, too bad we could only see once in 5 years I guess but I am grateful to be his little sister as he has no sisters at allgrin

So, Kuya El, don't be sad and cheer yourself up for having little sis herehug teddybear
