I'm grateful for the teardrops that made me get used to my untalented adjustments :-)❤️
Life is indeed a very cruel teacher. It gives us hard tests, and we, more often than not, learn it the hard way over, we can imagine. And in the process, there will be lots of tears dropped till we feel like we are swimming for the shore. We are left drowning in our tears and we feel like there's nobody out there on the surface to save us.

As of this writing, I am really contemplating of letting go of something that I have held on to for long years. It has made me become who I am today and a lot has also been changed in my life since I have it. I couldn't have gotten better without it, so to speak. But for reasons I really can't identify and enumerate, it also made me a tougher and wiser person when it comes to choosing my own battles. That's what really life is, at times, for us to be able to survive, we need to choose our own battles.

Let us not forget to always put God in the center of our lives because He is our good Father in heaven. He is a good God and He never withhold goodness to us, His children. And I know I have already mentioned this in my previous posts, that Steemit is one of the many blessings from God, at least for me. And I have been steeming for almost three (3) months now, so many changes have happened.

It made my routinary life more exciting because of the many untalented adjustments I have gone through and more to come, just like what I've mentioned in my previous posts.

There were also countless teardrops along the way, my steemit journey and my life as a whole. But God is indeed a God and awesome God. He blessed me with good people with good heart and sincere intention to help me grow and stay to this awesome platform. God used @surpassinggoogle in giving me constructive criticism on my writing, accepting me the way I am, flaws are welcome as he has always told everyone here. He has a big heart to all of us here and he wants us to be successful in our steemit journey. "Everyone has something to offer", a very simple but strong statement (from Sir Terry) with conviction and a command for anyone who hears it to do better in their craft.
God also blessed me through the humble person of @paradise-found, who is fondly called "papa bear" by everyone in the Gratefulvibes family. He has a good heart and a very generous person, ready to go extra mile to extend his heartfelt bear hugs to anyone who needs it, no matter what.
I owe all of these blessings to my good friend @bloghound who encouraged me to join this wonderful community.

Through the untalented curriculum by @surpassinggoogle and the gratefulvibes family by @paradise-found, I've learned to compete with myself and strive to do better with each post. I have learned to embrace the gifts God had given me and use it to the full to give Him glory in everything I do. And it is also through this platform that I meet so many wonderful and awesome steemians who, for me are all my mentors. Thank you to sir @jbn for his generous and full of wisdom posts and comments and genuine encouragement. Thank you also to @hr1 for your consistency in giving support to all my articles, thank you so much. :-)❤️ To all the teams (@bayanihan, @antonette, @iwrite, @kennyroy, @iyanpol, @purpledaisy, @bobiecayao and everyone, you know who you are and please believe me when I tell you that you are all here in my ❤️, even though you're not mentioned) here, thank you everyone, to my followers, all my invites and fellow newbies, all people that I followed and all who always take their time to visit my blog, read, comment and of course vote and resteem it, God bless us all. :-) ❤️

Also, what you are doing with your image source is not right, you are putting the google search results link instead of the image url.
Thank you so much for your correction po @bayanihan. I will do just what you say po.
