Sweet Summer Salad

Wow! Look at that! Hey wait a minute, the first two pictures are acceptable but I think not for the third. I thought I wasn’t eating salad of any kind. So what does salad has to do with my post? We got to know…

I guess the above pictures is the perfect illustration of how I feel this season. Oh yeah, now I get it. The reason why I picked salad for this post is because of its vibrant character – very colorful, lively and cheerful. All of these (pictures) are a mix of sweet, delightful, and a high-spirited vibe, a perfect description for them.

I love to share this significant feeling with you. What I feel right now is not just for the summer but for all the past seasons my life had enjoyed, struggled for, and learned from. It’s a wonderful adventure for me that I am what I am now because of all the great experiences I had treasured. Just like the scent of the sweet, the summer, and the salad. And I feel so grateful for the beautiful people that I’ve met and the beautiful things I’ve known.

Life, like a bunch of dessert, brings sweetness to those who have the courage to live it. Life, like a sunny day, produces heat just enough to make us feel the warm love of the Lord, and the sweat inducing obstacles, of course, make a person healthy. And like the features of a plate of salad, life certainly is full of a variety of ingredients just to be tasted, enjoyed and appreciated. All these are essential to suffice meaningful life. It may not always be a festivity and it’s sure it isn’t often easy. There were times that there’s a need to sacrifice what we value but what important is that the values we get from doing so. And also, realizing that all we encountered helped us to stand where we are at this moment. Being positive, I guess is the most vital thing we need to survive all the hardships we might get as we travel on the road of life. Positivity is one of the key in achieving our sweet summer salad in which I equate to HAPPINESS.
