I Feel So Blessed

I was on my home to the province, inside the bus while i was enjoying my brunch (Burger, fries and cola), a vendor went up the bus and to sell apples. "Initially" it was 4 pcs for 50 Pesos (philippine currency) and before he went out he was selling it for "5pcs" for 50 pesos. This is a common scene every time i ride a bus. But i didn't know why, that time is different, it is like that i was touch to see those vendors "sweating like a pig" just to sell apples just to earn a "few" box.



So there they are still waiting for someone to buy their apples and oranges, yelling "oh, Lima (five) apples singkwenta (50 pesos)..." and suddenly a thought came into my mind... that i was so blessed... on many ways, some of them are.

1.) I have a family that took care of me and my needs when i was incapable of producing it when i was still young.

2.) I have a job that doesn't require me to yell all day and hoping that i could gain enough money for my needs everyday.

3.) and Last but not the least, "I experienced it" , the things they do... selling

• Barbie-Q
• Palamig (Sago Gulaman and other variety),
• Ballot - unique Pinoy street food, it is a boiled fertile egg of a duck, it is not a ballot if it not fertile or doesnt have a chick inside,
• KamoteQ -
• BananaQ -
• Butong Pakwan,
• Mani - Peanut,
• Mais - Corn,
• etc... you name it, if that is a street food, i may have sell it...:-)

I experienced it when I was still a kid together with my whole family.

I feel, I was so blessed not because that our status now is above from where we are before but because of those experiences, all the hardship that we did, "I fully appreciate what I have now".
