The Most Special Gift I Ever Received

Today is July 13. It is a very special day for me. It is my birthday. My 22nd birthday.

Since childhood, I always received different gifts from my parents, ninangs, cousins and friends. These gifts including toys, money, letters, cards and books. But this year, I received my most special gift ever in my life. It is not the typical material things I received during my birthday but it is something special for many reasons. 

I waited for this. I prayed for this. And after almost five months of waiting, finally I made it. A new opportunity in my career which helps me to have a regular job in order to help my family and myself for daily needs. I also realized that I will love this job and definitely I will learn different things about it whether it is hard or easy. 

Therefore, I passed many struggles in my life, gained different achievements and encountered different experiences from people I met, one thing never changed: the love of my family, friends and especially God. Thanks to my friends and family for the love and understanding and Lord for the wonderful gift you've given to me. I'm looking forward for new challenges, adventures and lessons waiting for me which makes me a better person.
