I celebrated my 28th birthday last December 18 and I’ve got a lot of things going on lately which is why I haven’t blogged much. I was planning to write and publish a blog on a daily basis but it wasn’t doable. I didn’t want to sacrifice the quality of my posts for the sake of publishing every day.
A lot of things happened in the previous weeks and I had to focus on my work before I head on to Europe next week. I don’t want to spend all my time on my laptop while I am there so I am prepping as much as I could so I would be able to stay productive but at the same time explore as much as I can while I’m there.
Whew! Enough about my future plans and old experiences. For my 28th birthday post, I will focus on things I am grateful for. If you were reading my previous posts, I shared about how I started reading The Magic again and practice gratitude journaling. As of today, I have written more than 400 things I am grateful for and it really helped me a lot especially of what I went through these past few weeks. Right now, I’m really focusing on having the best trip in Europe and being truly grateful for it.
Here are 28 things I am grateful for:
