I know that this is a cliche but we all know that we have numerous best days of our lives.
For me, the best days of my life are:
when i said yes to my second boyfriend,
when i attended the party of our first debutante in our batch,
when i went out with my girls,
when i traveled with my family,
when i finally got over my first heartbreak,
when i feel like my crush also has a crush on me,
when I eat good food,
when I laugh with my friends,
when I had a long serious talk with a friend,
when I get good grades,
when I pass that un-passable subject......
But the most-greatest-BESTEST-day of all is when
God gave me the opportunity to live in such a
wonderful world I am in today.
That is why,
Even if the economy is effed up,
even if there are tremors and danger around me,
even if I had my heart broken,
I still have high hopes for this world, because I'm here,
and there are a lot of us who loves this world,
and a lot of us who still wants to continue to
make a lot of best days in our lives.
I, too, hope that someday,
my kid will also have the best days of his life here on earth.
