February 15

February is very fast approaching. And I am thinking of this month to be the grand one for my baby David. He is turning 1 on the 15th of February. 

I am thinking of giving him a party because I want that his 1st birthday will be fun and a memorable one. My husband and I are already planning for David's first birthday. We do the budgeting and planning. We hope to cater everything we need for David's 1st birthday.

Fulfillment

I pause for many times for this question that constantly lingering my mind: What makes me fulfilled? 

For this past weeks, I felt in tears as i watched films of my favorites that are indeed heart-touching, real reawakening and that is to have realized many things that I now contemplate to give importance to. 

"What really makes me fulfilled?" always tops my thinking that leads me to think much deeper and even beyond mere imagination to seek answer to the conscious and subconscious mind. As what my friends answered as I asked them the following day, they told me that to own an elegant house, a car, to have a business of their won are the things which completely make them fulfilled and complete. I have also those wants but they are not my sort of top contentment, of my choice fulfillment. 

1. To see that my family are happy, in that, I also can say that I am fulfilled. That they will not scratch from insuffienciency, and that, they have enough to spend life in happiness. I find contentment. 

2. To see that they are in good health, that, I find real happiness. And so, I can say that I am fulfilled. Bambi will be okay and so with me. The joy that comes from a family lies in the spirit of vigor and good physical health feeling that they will be able to commune and share everyday-being of life. 

3. To see that my family prays together. The togetherness and hospitality dwells in each other's embrace of making God the center of all energies, that it's not only in times of hard trials and sufferings that they will pray to God, but in sadness and happiness of life's breath. 

Fulfillment for me is LOVE. If there is love that one searches withing, then I can and will say that I will be fulfilled. Seeing my family happy, in good health and united in Christ, that I find that I am fulfilled together with them. And all these, I am seeing with my family. All those three are LOVE.

Got a chance to have better education

Learning is lifetime. Learning is life. 

I am happy that I can have a better education. I will pursue schooling so that I can be of great help to my family, to David and to my husband. It is so hard to be left behind in school because I feel that I have limited learning. I have realized that it is better to help oneself by making myself be fed up with lots of school learning and information that I can be able to share my skills in what specific field. I am really apt to this. 

I am that determined now. I don't want this to slip away. I am that happy and I am that ready. This is for my future. This is for my life and this is indeed what I like to do, being in school again.

I have already received the package.

My family sent me a package which contains important things. I am very much happy that I was able to have them yesterday in the morning. I thought that it will dwell into my hands late. Thanks God that it all were delivered properly and all the documents are there. I am very much worried because of the news that I have been hearing, of those misdelivered packages. I am happy and super glad that I have realistically all the papers that I need now.

Internet Problem

I often use the Internet to contact my family and friends in the other countries. I use the Internet to update my profile and even share ideas on my page. But what I don't like when all these habits of communicating are cut out, when I am experiencing an Internet problem. It gives me a big headache and it ruins my day. 

When I don't have time to connect with people, this impotents me. I feel like useless and I have a bad day. I don't like to be overly miss out with this. I want to totally feel the presence of the connection that brings me a good and healthy day. That is why, it is so sad, I get so mad when I encounter Internet problem.

Playing Scrabble with my Husband

Being together is not more about being me and him only. It is well-defined to be: savoring every moment being together as couple. That is, spending time not just in doing the household chores, going to church, taking care of David, but it is more about spending every simple moment with fun. 

"I won!" Yes, I did. We played scrabble with my husband and I won the game. It seems that he will win because he really is brilliant and he knows more English than I do. But I was in the winning side. I definitely beat him. That is indeed a great surprise. 

I thought that maybe he is just giving way for me, but I think I did not. I really made the best sport. And I understand that my husband is trying. That made me think that playing scrabble together makes a lot of fun for us.

Chinese New Year (Kong Hei Fat Choi!)

In our country and other parts of the world, January 23, 2012 celebrates the Chinese New Year. This celebration has been observed for several years now and it seems to be getting more and more fun-filled and decorous as lots of people are adorned with fortune Chinese items to reflect good luck in this year of the Water Dragon. The idea of the celebration has been part of tradition and it is widely recognized. 

It was conceived specifically in China, where the Kong Hei Fat Choi originated through gathering on the table with good luck food, wearing lucky charm stuffs and dancing in the streets. But now, it was observed by people from all walks of life to spread cheers among each other by adoring the tradition that the Chinese people once started. 

Obviously, this kind of celebration is not a Filipino nor an American tradition. Indeed, it even runs counter to the accepted Filipino and American concept of this occasion as everyone gathers to celebrate this kind of Chinese New Year. Naturally, the occasion calls for more fun and happy mood.

Kong Hei Fat Choi is therefore the best celebration to cheer even though Filipino people and other countries consider January 1 as their New Year too.

How to be a Great Mom

People are asking me why my David is that happy and is showing a sign of positive attitude. Well, it all boils down to our attention of love that we have shared to him. 

My friends are always asking me why David is a wonder. He is not shy in dealing with different faces everyday and when we go to public places, he is that formal and observant. They thought that David is a crying baby. 

I believe that the only way that a child glows from within, if he is a happy person or not always goes back to how his family rear him. It always goes to the family as learnings and teachings are initially taught at home. 

I provide home for my David. I give him all the love and care, not in material things but those that caresses to embrace and touch his senses in a way that I can be able to deal with the inner self of him. That is what I have thought in my family. 

David has always been the good source of love and happiness in our family. With him, I can be able to flourish more as a mother. Actually, David defines me. 

I have learned that in life, the only positive way that brings out the best in one's living in building a home is LOVE and it is all about it. For without love, my family will not glow. For without love, the world will not be that happy. For without love, my baby David will not display a happy disposition in life. 

It is relevantly true that the only way to gain and achieve happiness in life is to give happiness out from LOVE and that is what I am doing with my family, with my David. And obviously, it shows!

David's 1st Encounter with the Scissors

My sister told me that I have to wait for David's turning 1 year old before I could let him have his haircut. And so, I was believing my sister so that my David will not get sick. I don't think where on earth my sister's belief leads her to think of the idea that my David will get sick if he will have David's hair cut if he's not 1. 

I told my husband about it, but he said that, that belief is a big mistake. It was not really my intention to listen to my sister's advice. But my husband really wants that David will have a new haircut for the new year. And so we did. 

Of course, David needs new hair cut and it was his ever first experience. It is not always constant that David will remain static of his old hair style.

Hospitalization: The feeling of a patient

"Health is very important. I should have relaxed and have given time for myself. Now, I pay the price and it's detrimental" 

These words of regrets were uttered by my sister, Arleen who said that it is really hurtful to suffer from a serious pain of her disease. These lines always kept on repeating on my mind which I take note to share them. My sister is suffering from Acute Pyelonephritis which she battled to face. 

She was sharing me her sorrows and frustrations every time we chat online. She was like embarking on a long vacatin and coming back as that forwarding bringing bad news that even shocked her. She even didn't experct the outburst of her disease for she is used to be an energetic, active and happy person. Now, she looks lifeless and always in silence. 

I initially make the move to ease her "depression" as I alwyas give uplifting messages for her not to mind that deep pain. I am positive that she is determined to strive, to bring back the actibe glow of her health. Medicines can help as much as words of comfort for her to be okay. 

The lessons that she shared points out these things that when one is suffering form much pain due to a certain disease, one should:

1. Not lose hope. 

The moment my sister knew that she is suffering from a serious disease, there are signs that she's always saying uplifting words like - "I will be okay.", "I can get over this trial.", "I will not lose hope."

These give me the strength that she is aware of gaining positive outlook and determination in spite of her sufferance. 

2. Take time to relax

My sister is a very workaholic person. That is probably the cause why she is having a health problem. She is always on-the-go in submissions and deadlines. She is a teacher. The lesson plans, unit plans and preparations are everyday tasks that she opting to accomplish. With non-stop activities and appointments, these for sure, retires the vigor of my sister. She realized to pause for some times and take a deep breath in seeing the beauty of nature, of life than by imprisoning oneself to the classroom and paper works. 

3. Eat the right kind of food and do exercise. 

My sister used to miss or skip meals. She oftentimes too, eat the kind of food which can be bought on the streets. She used to eat unhealthy food and the kind of busy life she has make her forget to donate extra time to exercise. 

She realized that it is better that before, she should not compromise eating nutritous food because she can afford to buy them. She has all the money to buy those healthy food and she can afford to pay for the gym. 

4. Pray to God. 

The only sole upliftment that my sister finds peace is the reliance and prayer that He seeks in God. She admits that she was far to God in those times that she is busy with work and in those times that money seems to reach quickly in her hands. She believes that God is reminding her to seek His presence and pray to Him for help and guidance. 

Yes, the world is not statically withine one's grasp. My sister, Arleen is somewhat abusing herself and has taken for granted the wonderful things that she should enjoy. There is alwyas the chance that she will be called to the tide of realization, to pause, think and breath life in a slow and enjoyable pace. 

One couldn't afford to lose life. And my sister Arleen is taking every moment now of her life, bringing those realizations in great lessons for life.

David's First Ride

As my husband and I with David strolled along the mall, I take time to give David his first ride. Yes, it is his first ride with the carousel. I thought that he will be scared or something, but I was so surprised that my baby is not that worrisome. He is enjoying the ride with me. He is looking around while we go around that carousel. He is staring closely to the moves of the horses and the people riding the horse. I think that he is really enjoying.

My David is not panicking. In fact, he is that modest and well-behaved as he is taking the ride with me. Other children there are crying and fearful to take the ride. But my David is observant and enjoying.

Being a mother to David, I admittedly never worried or getting much problem with him because he is not showing any signs or manifestations of fear whenever or wherever we go to places. Instead, he is laughing, smiling and enjoying a lot of things in life.

I find no problem with David as I take every step of his and our way to enjoy the invitation of life. I am that confident of him and being his Mom, I take pride of that.
