Happy Holidays, Etc.

I finally got some time off from work. It's times like these when I start getting all emotional and begin reflecting about my life.

I'm tired of working. Oftentimes, I have to ask myself why I have to work -- or at least why I have to stay at my job. Not once have I felt regret about wanting to grow up fast and become independent. But looking at my life now and how good it is makes me happy and overflowing with contentment. Iy may not be perfect but it's just right for me. I have a nice job where I've found great friends, my wife's with me and we're so in love as always... what can go wrong?

Times like these, it makes me wonder why there are people out there who would kill themseves. I know there are a lot of people who are not as lucky as I am, but hey, there are a lot of things in life -- simple things, which for me makes life worth living. There's always a good friend, a good laugh, a good burp or a good fart, a good movie, a good song -- all these things make life worth living. But then again, that's just me and obviously, there are some who do not see things that way.

So what do I plan to do this coming year? I don't know! Save money, I gues... I've been spending a whole lot this past year -- but don't get me wrong -- I've been spending my hard-earned money over useful things. I've read once in Cosmo that a person should have 6 months worth of his/her salary in the bank so that no matter what happens (suddenly loses a job, etc.), you wouldn't be in deep financial shit. 6 MONTHS??? Never gonna happen to me! No, not in this lifetime!

Oh well, I've been learning to keep a positive attitude about most things in my life. Like my plans of studying or writing or owning a business, they will happen someday. I don't know when that someday is, but what the heck?! One's never too old to study or write or become a business owner, right? I'd rather take baby steps to reach my goals than come running, rushing to it then get tired and not get there at all...

So there, these are my reflections as of today. Nothing more for me to say.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL and MAY WE ALL HAVE A PRODUCTIVE AND FULFILLING YEAR AHEAD!!!
