Writing True

I can’t take it literally

AinaBalagtas

What does “having it all” mean to you? Is it attainable?

Because if I do, I’d end up being materialistic—

And I don’t like that.

Therefore, to me “having it all” means

What I have in hands already;

What I have accomplished thus far;

My family and friends,

My work and coworkers—

They are that “all”

For which I am so grateful.

Likewise, my blogs,

I am thankful for having them

For giving me the platform:

To air my voice,

Share my perspective and creativity,

Sometimes I can’t help thinking that happiness is just a fantasy,

which makes contentment a reality.
