In this time and age when everything's fast paced and we effortlessly find ways to pressure ourselves, we need all the positive vibes we can get. As long as we have our extended relationships in families, friends and colleagues, it seems poverty, stress and responsibilities are never too hard to handle. We always fall flat on our faces, but we tend to laugh it off.
You'd think people from affluent countries with good employment and healthcare systems are happiest in the world? Think again. Singaporean ranked the least positive in the world per GDP. IN short, they're the grouchiest. This really goes to show that though there's abundance in wealth, money isn't really everything.
Filipinos are positive people. Our nation is happy despite everything we've been through. Sometimes I think we're just plain stubborn and crazy, but it's either that or constant despair and gloom. I won't trade our country for anything. And even if we don't have the brightest star in terms of economy and struggling is part of our lives, we always seem to do everything with a smile, a strong leap of faith and a jar full of hope in life. And that makes us rise and enjoy life more, which makes material riches just the icing on the cake.
