hey
i must be in a good mood today!!! i got up extra early to start my day right with some breakfast, and we went out to buy some groceries and fresh produce.
as i was about to open the car door, i saw our elderly neighbor walking his grandson's dog and i greeted him good morning! he genuinely smiled, probably taken aback by my greeting! his smile made my heart melt!!! it amazes me how a simple "good morning" can make someone's day brighter!
when we got to the market, i was also chatting with the vendors because they were all so jolly plus it doesn't hurt that they kept on calling me pogi (habang 'yung mama ko nanghihingi ng tawad sa mga bilihin kasi hobby niya yata 'yun hehe)
it fills my heart with joy when we shop for groceries and fresh produce. it makes me happy that i can provide for our needs and that i can see where my money's going. this might be a privileged thing to say, but there's a sense of relief and satisfaction in seeing our fridge and food counters fully stocked up. it makes me sleep well at night!
anyway, i'll probably start greeting our elderly neighbor more often. a simple "kumusta po, lolo?" should make him smile more everyday.
if you can, choose to spread kindness and happiness, the world definitely needs it.
to more simple joys and soft moments!!!
