~If I could go back to my 20s🥹, honestly, I would do things very differently🎀I would take every opportunity more seriously. I would work harder, save more, and start investing as early as possible. I would be more disciplined with my money and think more about my future instead of spending too much time and energy on things and people that didn’t really matter in the long run.🌸I would remind my younger self that not everyone deserves my attention, my time, or my energy. I wouldn’t chase people, force connections, or waste years trying to make the wrong people stay. I would focus more on myself, my career, my goals, and becoming financially independent.

Kasi kung alam ko lang noon what I know now, sana mas marami akong naipon. I want to reach my 30s with enough savings and investments that, if one day I decide na ayoko na sa isang place or I want to start over somewhere else, I can simply pack my things and leave without worrying, “Kaya ko ba financially?”I would choose experiences that help me grow, learn more, build something for myself, and prepare for the future, 🌸Because now that I’m in my 30s, I realize that time moves so fast. You don’t notice it while you’re living it, but suddenly, you look back and think, “Sana pala noon pa.”So if I could go back to my 20s, I wouldn’t change everything. I would simply make better decisions, protect my energy, value myself more, and build my financial freedom earlier.

But since I can’t go back, I’ll make sure I don’t waste my 30s wishing I had started sooner. 🌸🤍

~minsan I wonder, when will I finally reach that 99% happiness? 🌸✨

And when I say happiness, I don’t mean love or having a relationship. I mean having the lifestyle and the kind of peaceful life that I’ve always wanted. 🧿🤲🏻A life without debt. 💸
The kind of life where every month, I can buy myself a gold bangle without stressing about my budget. ✨Every 6 months, I can perform Umrah and visit Makkah with a peaceful heart. 🕋🤍Every 3 months, I can travel ,sometimes alone, enjoying my own company and freedom, and sometimes with friends, creating beautiful memories. ✈️🌸I also want to slowly build investments in the Philippines, maybe buy land and invest in things that will give me security in the future. 🇵🇭✨Honestly, that’s my dream life. It may sound simple, but for me, it means everything. I don’t need a perfect life or a luxurious life. I just want financial freedom, peace of mind, the freedom to travel, the ability to worship without worrying about money, and to enjoy the life that I worked so hard for. 🤲🏻✨

InshaAllah, one day I’ll get there. Maybe not today, maybe not yet, but I believe I will. One debt paid, one gram of gold, one investment, one trip, and one answered dua at a time. 🌸And one day, I’ll look back at this version of myself , the girl who was struggling, worrying about money, and still dreaming ,and I’ll be proud that I never gave up✨🎀

~Be careful with a woman who doesn’t fight back.
She’s not weak”🌸✨

She handed you to ALLAH 🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️🤲🏻

~It feels like just yesterday when I had my first interview with this company, and now, 2 years have already passed. 🥹🤍

I’m still here with the same energy, happiness, and motivation I had from the beginning. Looking back, I’m truly grateful for this journey and for everything I’ve learned along the way, This is what real peace at work feels like ,when you’re blessed with a supportive, respectful, and loyal boss who appreciates your efforts and makes you feel valued.✨

Two years later, and I’m still grateful, still motivated, and still happy to be here 💖🥰
