...it's not bad at all

"You will come to know that what appears today to be a sacrifice will prove instead to be the greatest investment that you will ever make"

- Golden B. Hinkley

My family lived in this house for 28 years.

I know, this is not a dream house that others will wish for. Even us, this wasn't our dream house. But this house is very special to us . This is where my siblings and I building our dreams and aspirations. This house is full of love and care.Too many pleasant memories to remember. We dreamed that someday we can make this house into a nice one. We never thought of leaving this place.

But last January, my family had to make a big decision. For financial reasons, leaving this house was the main option. The first month of transfer was very difficult, adjusting the new lifestyle, the new environment, the new neighbors and the feeling of homesickness was terrible. Especially, it is a coastal area surrounded with houses. It is absolutely different in the way we live in the country, there, we are only surrounded with trees and the humming of birds. From a a quite place in the country to a place full of noise.

But God has been very good to us. We are showered with His blessings. Now, we are almost finished building our new small house. We've established good relationships with our new neighbors. The family meager business is doing very well.

I came from a poor family but I am very proud to have such a wonderful and fantastic one. As my mother always says, "We maybe poor but we are rich in heart."
