I Dream of Getting a Perfect Car


*Sponsored post

I dream of getting a perfect car,
A car that would serve my family best;
A car that will be part of us for a long time
And will be our companion in family bonding and travel.

It will have a space big enough to accommodate our growing family,
Where I can place my children's car seats without any delay.
It will be ready to go with us on an adventure,
Whether that's going to on a long highway trip
Or a trip on a bumpy road as we visit our small farm.

This car should have  crash avoidance and protection features,
It should have airbags, electronic stability control, and active braking systems.
This car will take us to our destination,
And carry us home safe and sound.

I  know getting a perfect car isn't easy,
That is why I don't do things in a hurry;
Finding the right dealership is important
As they will be my partner for a long time.

Whether a car dealership is an actual store,
Or online like cars.com doesn't matter at all.
What's important is you get the right service
From the dealership that you want to work with.

I know this car will be waiting for us,
And hopefully, by the time we are financially capable,
We'll own this perfect car of my dreams. ♥

Receiving My First Pay


I can still remember from years ago when I received my first pay.
It was the first fruit of my hard earned labor, I didn't know what to say.
I know it wasn't a lot but I'm still lucky anyway,
I finally got a job where I'm going to get a regular pay.

Long after that, I decided to quit my job,
My pay's not enough, I said to myself.
I will find another job that will help me grow and learn more,
And give me much better offer than what I had before.

I was right for letting that job go,
I was accepted for another job after about a week or two.
How happy I was to land this job,
I will surely be able to save more now, I won't feel odd.

Funny that in life we keep wanting more.
One day what we have was just right,
The next day, we say it's not everything is not alright.
We go search again and find another thing which we thought could make us contented,
Only to, later on, leave it for another thing we thought we'd be pleased.

In this life, the key is contentment.
No matter how big or small we have, if we learn to appreciate, we won't want anything more.
Sure it's sure to dream of something bigger, but a dream is different from selfish ambition.

Be happy with what you have.
Be thankful for the things you received.
In every opportunity, learn to give thanks,
And you from there, the happiness you will find.
