It still feels recent that my sister was singing Taylor Swift’s 22 to me during my birthday in January, and now it’s only a few more months and she has to change those lyrics to “23.” But despite the quick pace life is going and here I am again contemplating what I did in the past years, I’ll be sharing fifty things I’m thankful for.

  1. It’s another day.
  2. I have a nice family. Even though we fight about petty things.
  3. I have a few but really good friends.
  4. I have a nice job. 
  5. I have nice colleagues and a great boss.
  6. I was able to buy a new laptop. And in my favorite color, red and black.
  7. And a new phone for me and my sister.
  8. And a GoPro Hero4 Silver.
  9. God got my back.
  10. I can have coffee or fries whenever I want. Unlike some who struggle with 1 meal.
  11. I’m ambitious.
  12. I’m blessed every single day.
  13. My career is going the right path. (which hopefully goes well with what I need so I don’t have to think twice in accepting a new job offer.)
  14. I recently got a salary raise.
  15. I got to travel to Palawan.
  16. I get to buy new clothes. Even if I encounter some bad sellers along the way.

  19. God is leading me to His way.
  20. I get to meet new people.
  21. And build new connections.

  25. I am closer to the people I actually want in my life.
  26. I’m finally able to save properly. hopefullyyyyy.

  29. I’m happy even if there are several reasons not to.
  30. I’m growing as a person by the day.
  31. I meet and like the wrong people but it’s okay.

  34. God won’t abandon me, ever.
  35. Good news: I’ve finally moved on properly after 4 years. Bad news: I’m liking someone who I shouldn’t.
  36. I have an understanding mom.
  37. I’m smarter and more talented than a lot of people.
  38. And I am able to put it to good use.
  39. Some people actually do love me.
  40. My life doesn’t feel incomplete despite having a broken family.
  41. I don’t feel the need to be with someone.
  42. I’m actually scratching some stuff off my bucket list. Hooray travelling and eating.
  43. Life is unfair, but I’m still pretty lucky.
