Simply a Doughnut Lover

Doughnuts can bring us heavenly experience =)
I have a public confession to make. I am a doughnut-lover. A wonderful experience yesterday affirmed me that, it’s worth it!

After our midday meal, I was craving for donut, so I asked a friend to accompany me to the donut store. Some other good buddies went to the “Pasalubong ng Bayan” to have coffee. When we got there, I got munchkins. Yummy! Doughnut delight was getting into my nerve, when our attention was caught by two (2) kids. They were asking for a treat from our foreigner colleague. While the foreign guy was unaware of what one kid was saying, “Pa-libre ng donut…” I just handed over my doughnuts to the deprived kids. I just ordered another delightful doughnut meal and hurray for today came my way!  Then off we went back to the office.

i love you more now! =)

Just before my day at work was over, I got a message that says, “By the way, you’ve got such a big heart… It’s comforting to know there are kind hearted people like you.”

“Thanks but I just informed you about the phone call… How come you are able to say this…?” was my in awed reply. (I got the message just after telling him about a supplier’s phone call… not a big deal.)

My new found friend clarified, “You gave the small kid your doughnut!” then smiled. 

I was touched and said, “Aaaw! I find joy and meaning in giving especially for those whom this world considers least, last and lost. They are actually not the ones who received, I did. I was the one who got the most. They just able to get my donuts… While I got a deep sense of joy and gratitude. They gave me the grace to be a blessing in little ways… It’s my everyday prayer, to be a blessing in my own simple and little ways. Thanks that you appreciated. I’m just paying forward. I am blessed so I am trying to bless the world, too.”

It’s a pleasure to be associated with such a great girl like you. I still wonder how come such a wonderful lady is still single…” was his funny reaction.

Then I said, “I also wonder why!” I laughed… with gratitude and joy, I was unaware that simple action touched somebody’s heart.

I thanked GOD for answering my everyday prayer. GOD be glorified! Thanks to the doughnuts! I all the more love you now! =) 

Share some love! Be a blessing! =)


Please let me campaign for my personal advocacy, “Be a blessing in simple ways!” May GOD bless you as you bless others!
