Albert Einstein once said, “There are two ways on how to live life: one, as if nothing is a miracle, and two, as if everything is (a miracle)”.
I am choosing the second one. I realized, Albert got a point back there. All that we are, all that we have—they are miracles [we are]! I mean, one day, we can all wake up without everything we have or lose everything we love or are given a serious illness, or we can be really terribly depressed because of such things.
But no, here we are, we are still breathing beating alive human beings— and that is a miracle! And so beginning today, I am choosing to remind myself to choose gratitude because we are living a life full of little and big miracles!
I am grateful for God, for giving me sooooo much more than I deserve. I have life, I am still breathing, I have complete body parts, I have a loving and supportive family, I have my caring parents, I have a house to stay no matter the sun or rain, I have the most genuine friends I could ever ask for, I am living in a tropical DID I SAY GORGEOUS country, I have access to ACHINGLY BEAUTIFUL beaches and forests and mountains, I can breathe air without any equipment attached to me, I can eat without any problem, I can walk, run, talk, laugh, cry, read, write... I mean— it’s endless!
ENDLESS MIRACLES! And I... I am happy and indebted and grateful and blessed and thankful and full of overflowing joy.
How about you? What are your miracles? And also, do you know you are one? Yes! You are a walking, talking, breathing miracle! ✨
It was my very first time going to the famous island of Bantayan last May 5th, 2021. Believe me when I say, and this may be an understatement, but the island has captured my heart. Truly. Wholy. I am captivated by its beauty. That is why I went there again last June 24th. And I can say that I can go back there again and again and I will never grow tired of soaking in its beauty.
The island of Bantayan truly deserves its spot as one of the many islands in Cebu province famous to tourists-- both local and foreign. THE ISLAND IS A PARADISE!
I took so (too many!) many photos. The only time I did not take photos was when I ~literally~ soaked in all the beauty as much as I could for as long as I possibly could. I will have to post the other pictures for the next post, right?
Have you been to Bantayan? How was your experience? Yayyyy do share! 💛
‘Til the next post, hivers! Remember that you are loved beyond borders and beyond time & space. Okay? Okay. 💛❤️
Ciao for now! 🤗🥰

Motivating someone by telling your own story is a good approach to let people appreciate more about life. If we choose to appreciate instead of complaining, for sure there are things we can make ourselves happy.
Beautiful place by the way.
Thank you!
Yessss, we ought to choose to be thankful as long as we have air in our lungs and our hearts still beat 💛
It is magnificent! You should visit Bantayan when you get to Cebu @mrnightmare89 💛💛
I was planning a year ago but pandemic sucks, I'm not sure now if I will. Still, thanks.
Giving encouragement while telling stories of travel seems a good match.!discovery 20
Yayy!! I am very grateful of the support, @juecoree 💛💛thankyou!
Beautiful sunset, blue sky and white sand. 🤍💙💛 Just perfect. We're planning to visit Bantayan by the end of this month. Do you have any good cozy resort recommendations?
Love your writing. A mixed of adventures and inspiration about life 👌🏽 Just loved it. 👋🏼
IT IS PERFECT! 💛💛💛
Here are my recos:
Thank you so much for your kind words about my writing, it means a lot to me heehe 😘
I HOPE YOU ENJOY YOUR VISIT! @itsmiessyonpeakd 💛
Thank you girl! 💛💛💛
Wow that place is gorgeous. I think it's wonderful that you choose to live life like everything is a miracle. There are so many people (my roommates) that do nothing but complain about everything and don't stop to appreciate all the good they have in their life.
Life is too short to live in complaints and heartbreaks and negativity. Gratitude is a choice, not just a feeling, and it is vital we remind ourselves every day that we ought to be thankful.
Thank you for dropping by, that means a lot to me, lovelots💛💛 @honeyrabbit
