Without a doubt I really can say,
This year has been so tough for me.
But regardless of what I experienced every single day,
I still have a lot of reasons to smile and said "Yay!"

Good day everyone. How are you doing? I was not around for a couple of days due to my stomachache. It really gives me a hard time like any minute I will vomit. Gladly today, it didn't hurt anymore.
Moving on with the topic, I actually visited the community yesterday but I really don't have any idea of what had happened. I can't see any word on the screen so I just decided to close it. The reason why I visited was to see if there's a new contest blog. And just earlier today, I fortunately been able to read the blog post regarding the contest blog for this week, "Ladies of Hive Community Contest 114." And with that, I came to decided to join the fun of sharing the "greatest joy" and "greatest sorrow" I had for this year.

When it comes to job hunting, I may be one of the unfortunate for this year. Like, I have submitted a lot of application letters and CVs (Curriculum Vitae) but I ended being rejected, consecutively. Just recently, I was able to take part for the initial interview but until today, I still didn't receive any update regarding the results of my exams which will be my ticket to take part for final interview. With regards to my Teacher's Ranking, this year still elusive to me. Its my second time joining the rankings but still not able to get a spot for the RQA (Registry of Qualified Applicants) which really broke my heart. I was very disappointed. And you know what, if only I could turn back the time, I should just follow what my Araling Panlipunan teacher said to me before that I should not take Education as my College course. I should pursue the one I really love and the first choice course I have in mind which is related to Food preparation. But its too late now. I am getting older. I am in a great pressures for being a jobless one. Imagine, its been almost four years now since I graduated College but I am still relying with my parents. With all the doubts, fears, and uncertainties I have within, it gives me a hard time to go on striving and look something for my living. I always cry in the middle of night. I stressed out thinking how will I continue my life.
More than that, I was then betrayed. For six long years, my ex-boyfriend, he did cheat. I actually had a hunch. But still I chose to stay blinded and just think that there's nothing wrong going on. Gladly, I managed to see that I he is not worthy of the love and care. And with that, I bid goodbye and continue my life even without him anymore. That was hurt. I even asked myself, "Am I not enough?" But what else I can do? He ended up cheating and left me in vain. Well, even in that hurtful fact, I am very much happy. Why? Because it also left me a lot of valuable lessons.
Despite all of the pains and sorrows I went through, I managed to fight back, to stand up, and continue my life.

I am blessed for having my family and friends with me. Though its not always a happy day for us, I am still grateful for they have shown me the love, care, and support. They are the ones who made me stronger and the reason why I managed to keep going.
With all the little gatherings we had for this year, it really did brings me happiness and I was able to get a lot of memories to treasure for the rest of my life.
Amidst being jobless, I am thankful for the people who helped me to be in here, especially to ate/Mamsh @zbabe . With the help of my earnings in all the side hustles I have joined in, I then been able to help a little in our household needs, and been able to use the earnings I accumulated to buy goods and for my personal needs and wants.
Furthermore, this year is the best year for my love life. I am currently having a relationship with my Long Distance Boyfriend for seven months now. But actually, he was my ex-boyfriend eight years ago. If you happened to read our story, he was my boyfriend when I was in my fourth year in Highschool. And last May 2022, our paths came to cross again. As what they said, "an epic comeback." I really can't believe it even until now. Is this the so-called, ***"Fate." ***
He helped me to see my worth. I can proudly say that I am so love by him. Though we are apart for now, he didn't let me felt the we are in distance. My heart is at ease.
With all the things that happened in my life this year, I am very grateful to God, our Father. I didn't see Him personally but I know He is there with me all throughout. I am grateful for He didn't let us fall into sinful traps for good, and He really kept us away from all the dangers surrounds us for the whole year of 2022. I am also thankful for He made me realized that I should love myself more than anyone else. That I should Trust myself more than anyone else.
I hope that this coming new year, I can turn the table and manage to see all the best of life ahead. Of course, not just for myself but also for my love ones.
That would be all. Thank you for your time. Merry Christmas and May we have prosperous New Year!🎆
TO GOD BE THE GLORY!😇
