life lesson i'd learned at 37


i just turned 37 today. it's just a normal day for me, no party it's just a simple dinner with my husband and grace at home. 

it's so difficult to celebrate cause my son is in manila, a thousand miles away from us but nevertheless I am so grateful that God gave me another year of life. He continued blessing me more than i deserve and that amazed me how good He is despite of my weaknesses. God  truly loves me.

being here in this crazy world for almost 4 decades ( wishing for more decades.. ), i'd like to share what are the essential things that i have learned throughout the years which hope will serve as a channel and inspiration to others especially to my son.
