Thank you, Lord for making me smile.
I woke up kinda early though I got to sleep around 3am already.
My mom woke me up because she had to go to the wet market today with my niece. She didn't exactly ask me to get up but just informed me that they were heading out. Few minutes later I decided to get up, and here I am talking to you. :D
I prayed and thanked God it's a new day. He told me to get up because I am needed today by my students.
I've had my breakfast and now I'm finishing my coffee.
And I'm waiting for some people coz I need to ask them regarding our allotment. Life is so difficult nowadays because of this pandemic but we just have to be careful. I love my family so I will follow our government and stay in. My sister, cousins, auntie and uncles also some friends are frontliners. I want to protect them by staying home. Its hard yes, we too are out of jobs right now but I know God will provide. I know God works in mysterious ways and will provide me with my needs. A reason for me to smile.
God gave me a new day to spend it with my mom, my niece, my sisters and nieces online. It is a new day to be thankful to the people surrounding us and helping us make this easy. A reason for me to smile.
I woke up opening the pantry and fridge and I see there are available foods to choose and have a hearty meal. A bountiful blessing. I had a cup of rice and a small canned tuna and banana. A reason for me to smile.
I have a shelter that protects me and my family. A reason for me to smile.
I may have nothing right now but I have friends of thinks of me, checks on me and willing to help me. They always tell me, you had your time in helping us, now they are helping me. The fact that they are there guiding me and giving me words of encouragement, I'm good. But in dire need, they are always there. A reason to for me to smile.
Life is difficult but life is good, let's be thankful and be a blessing to others. Then, you will see blessings will pour into your homes. A reason for me to smile.
We still have a long day to go and we look forward to more blessings. A reason for me to smile
Maybe today your day ends but it doesn't end there. It is a day we just give thanks coz you had a wonderful day and you well blessed. You're blessed coz you're still breathing. It is a reason for you to smile.
Whatever you do, just smile.
What makes you smile? Have a great day!

It makes me smile to know that I'm in a big house with a backyard and living in a community that's orderly and peaceful at the moment. Everything's provided for. All the basic needs are met. Thank you, God.
