What a perfect timing! I just finished this mini to celebrate my 30th birthday. Thanks for looking!

"Three decades. Mid-adulthood. Aging. Wrinkles. Crow's feet. I started to feel the panic. But I realized there's no other way to move but forward. Hence, this mini book to celebrate my third decade of living, loving and learning. And to be...thankful.
panel 2H-earth "I am thankful for every single meal; for every morsel of rice served hot in our dining table. For everything that comes out our hearth to nourish our body and satisfy the heart. For these, I am thankful."
A-rt "I am thankful for the chance to indulge in many crafts/hobbies; for exploring the creative soul that gives a fuller meaning to life."

"I am thankful for this man because with him, I am understood and loved."
"How can I not be happy with everyone and everything I have? I felt silly worrying over things that should not be worried over. So here I am, 30 and counting my blessings. And the fact is, I didn't even realize I have so much until now. :-)"
