I just want to share something that started my day right. :)
---
I had just finished preparing myself and is already ready to go to the office. My older brother decided to go with me to where I rode a jeepney going to work. (Usually, it's either my brother od Papa who goes with me out of the house.) It always feels good that, on the way out of the house to the jeepney ride, I will have someone to walk and talk with. We talk about some stuffs and when the jeepney that I'll ride stopped in fron of us, I kissed him goodbye and went in to the jeepney.
I searched for coins in my purse and handed them over to the jeepney driver as my transportation. However, he motioned his hands saying that I shouldn't bother to pay at all. Hmmmm... my transpo is FREE?:) I looked at the driver to see if I know him, but I don't, really. He wasn't even familiar.
Anyway, I said my thanks to him when I went down. :)
It was just 7 Pesos, but who cares?
It made me smile. :)
The Best Things in Life are FREE!!
*Yeeeeeehey!* :)

Hi heartsick! Same thing here! Since its payday, I bought groceries, and since my older brother had a good news to me, we decided to drop by in a bakery shop and bought pineapple cake! My mom was all-smiles when she saw what we brought. :) And when my younger brother arrived home, he was also sooo happy! hehe.. I know it was just simple, but our family always appreciates moments like this.
God bless! =) Continue to be an instrument of love to your family. :) take care!

Sometimes the best things in life ARE free... sunsets and sunrises... puppy kisses... holding hands... talking with friends. You don't need to spend money to feel loved and be happy!

Me i had similar experiences too with free transportation.....where the drivers/conductors were very glad to give it for free...but me one thing that i enjoy free is nature trips.......i always enjoy it since it reminds me of nature's simple yet aethestic beauty that calms the soul and brings peace to the mind....whcih is why i dont know why people are very careles when it comes to throwing trash on excursion places like that

you have rather attentive looks and feelings for what happened around you,and a very gentle and warm heart that i really appreciate. yes, in our daily life, many tons of things would happen, some are very simple that would escape your sight.but as long as you have the heart to feel, life would be more colorful and meaningful. for me, i feel really excited and happy for my brother's coming home tomorrow.^0^
