I watched the movie Dearly Beloved last night.
There was one scene of Christine Reyes' character where she felt jealous and/or looking up to Braon Geisler's ex-wife in the movie.
She felt and thought about how she wished she could be like her. Beautiful, rich and successful.
I love how Baron responded to her, "Ikaw bahala kung gusto mo maging katulad niya pero babala lang ha, iba yung lifestyle na kinagisnan niya. Kasi tayo iba tayo. WE ARE SELF MADE."

We always have that time in our life where we feel bad for ourselves because when we look at other people's lives, they look so successful and they are in a very good place no matter what problems come their way.
There are those who are privileged and those of us who are.....
"...SELF MADE. WE ARE SELF MADE"
We work hard for what we need.
We work hard for what we want.
We work hard for our dreams.
We need to save money to buy and build our own house or buy our own car.
We need to budget our salary to be able to provide to our families.
We need to strive to survive.
Sometimes our dreams even delays because it's not always sunny and glowing.
When the rainy days come, we have no one to rely on but ourselves.
So, my friends, never belittle your efforts.
Clap for others' success because one day, they will also clap on yours.
Be optimistic! Trust in Him ☝️ He is watching us all.
