I Found The True Happiness

​“If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap. If you want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody.” For centuries, the greatest thinkers have suggested the same thing: Happiness is found in helping others.
​

​You've surely heard the expression "It is better to give than to receive." But do you believe it? 
Our society tells us that we need to have more in order to be happy, more money, more gadgets, more more more!!! But there is no proof that this does us any good or make us happy. We end up working and striving to get more and consequently feel miserable and defeated.

For the year 2019, as I celebrated my 28th birthday and my 4th year in blogging, I decided to celebrate it again at Child Haus Manila for the 2nd time.

Childhaus Manila is a temporary shelter for indigent patients from the different provinces who have cancer or other dreaded diseases and have no place to stay in Metro Manila while undergoing medical evaluation or treatment.

With the help of our generous sponsors, supporting pledgers and cheerful volunteers we had another successfel event. Seeing all the kids smile and enjoying the moments is the true meaning of  happiness.  We are thankful for 2019, for all blessings, and for the gift of life. Sabi nga nila "Share your Blessing!" and we did. 
​

Thank you Jolibee for being our Food Sponsor! You surely knows how to put smile to our bida kids! 

To Dole PH, Monde, Green Cross Philippines, Grupo Agatep ,Vitapack Health & Beauty,  Blogapalooza and to all the Individual Pledgers, Endless Gratitude to everyone! without your kind and generous heart this event wont be possible! Continue spreading Love and Kindness! 

To all the volunteers, Thank you, Hope you enjoyed the event as well, the little time we spent with them means alot! 

Our happiness thus lies in our ability to be the solution. Too often are people asked to make a difference, and too often they don’t help. They don’t realize that by giving to others—no matter how small—every day, we fulfill not only ourselves, but those we assist as well. 

​ “We make a living of what we get. We get a life for what we give.”

Now that social media and dating apps have been trending, dating can be get confusing. It's easier to meet new romantic dates, as well as disappear from your lives, pop back in again, and generally confuse the hell out of you. Why did they send you that trending meme with no comment? Now that they've Instagrammed a photo with you, are you two "official"? They haven't texted since the third date. Does that mean they've moved on? 

To help you identify and avoid them, here are the most popular dating lingo defined. Siguro naman after mong mabasa ito hindi kana mag papaloko ano iha?

We don’t really know why we do it, why we insist on pursuing someone who doesn’t love us. We persist and resist, thinking distorted thoughts like, “if I tell him this, he might…” or “if I change this, it’s possible that…” as if this would achieve anything.

However, love isn’t a vending machine. You can’t put in a coin, press a button, and get the drink you wanted. Sometimes, there’s no other remedy than to take the jump, forget all your false hopes, and stop killing yourself over someone who’s gone in a different direction with other people.

Understand that love is not sacrifice. It’s never worth it to think things like, “if I stop doing this maybe they’ll love me,” or “if I change this and that about myself they’ll like me more.” Don’t do it. Don’t commit emotional suicide, don’t humiliate yourself, don’t set fire to the only thing that gives you strength and that is your self-esteem.

Sobrang swerte ng susunod na mamahalin ko. Punong puno yung puso ko, nag hihintay lang ng bubuhusan, kung sino ka man, gusto kong malaman mo na pinagdadasal ko na sana last ka na.

The story is about a 32-year old high-pro le musician Diego Punzalan whos on the verge of quitting his band,  he takes a trip to his province of Siargao to take a break from Manila’s public eye and rethink his place in his band.
There, he meets 29-year old Laura Molina, a vlogger, who was recently dumped by her longtime boyfriend. She has embarked on a solo trip to heal her broken heart and challenge her fear of risks and independence. Diego challenges Laura to step out of her boundaries as they explore the places he once called home. Going back to his hometown also means going back to face the issues he left behind, including seeing Abi Williams, the muse of many of his older love songs, one he shared a deep and heartbreaking history with.
Siargao is small and secluded surf town where time moves slowly and people might come and go. Where the tides change quickly and the ocean never stays still, they learn to take chances, and learn that, perhaps, commitment might be the biggest risk they will ever have to make

You have a crush, kasi nga gandang lahi niya! the one you thought you love, the one that makes you smile. They make you as crazy as it makes you happy too. 

True love isn’t felt in a heartbeat or in a first glance, love at first sight isn’t really love at all.
In fact, love at first sight is nothing but an infatuation. True love takes time to develop and take shape. You first need to understand that it’s important to take things slow in a relationship if you want to ensure its success. never set a deadline on finding your love. [nag mamadali kaba neng?]

The longer you’re single, the better you become PRO at it. You become so good at it that you can’t imagine having a partner soon, even if you ultimately want one. Being a PRO single person has its perks, but there comes to a point where you are so good at it, it’s actually hurting your chances at finding your true love.
