Thank you, our dear heroes!

Happy Tuesday! :)

How was your weekend?

Mine was filled with adventures, rest, basking in nature, sunlight peaking through the trees, laughter, play, and satisfying food cravings!

I got to spend it with my friends and two of my God children in a beautiful Bali-inspired forest resort about 1.5 hours drive away from Manila.

Today is a holiday in the Philippines to celebrate one of our national heroes, Andres Bonifacio. We are enjoying the kind of freedom we enjoy today because more than a hundred years ago, Bonifacio dared to speak up and fight for our freedom. Thank you, Lolo Andres Bonifacio! :)

Today, I also want to celebrate my own modern-day heroes.

My parents for loving each other, being faithful to one another, and putting God in the center of their marriage. Because of that, I grew up in a happy, loving, and safe home.

My siblings who helped shape who I am. I had a big sister Lyn who was so generous and selfless, a younger brother March who I consider my guy best friend in spite of all the times he teased me until I cried, and my little siblings Abby and Kyle who bring so much joy to our lives.

My friends who journeyed with me, continue to journey with me, and who will journey with me in the future. I can't imagine life without real friends. I am so grateful for you! Thank you!

My mentors who saw my potential even before I saw it in me, who believed in me, and who gave me (and continue to give me) the platform and opportunities to shine.

My team who serves with me at Write University.

The guards, cleaners, and workers in our condo who keep our place safe, clean, and orderly.

My entrepreneurial neighbors who sell everything anyone needs to survive in the midst of the pandemic. I can afford not to leave my home for a month because they supply fish, chicken, vegetables, fruits, chips, chocolates, ice cream, etc. and they deliver them to my door! Hehe!

The medical front liners, grocery front liners, and supermarket front liners who keep our ecosystem alive and healthy.

Our country leaders, church leaders, business leaders who genuinely care to serve.

YOU, thank you for allowing me to be a part of your life. Thank you for being part of our TuesDate community. Thank you for being you. Thank you for this time we spend together. I appreciate you. I always look forward to our TuesDate!

I have a gift for you.

A few months ago, I heard this song on TikTok and it became my favorite feel-good, chill, happy song.

So I studied it so I can sing it and share the song with you.

Not only that, we created a music video for you!

The song is called I Like You So Much, You'll Know It.

I initially planned to share this music video on Valentine's month, but I'm too excited!

So here it is.

Enjoy this song!

Imagine your crush or someone you love singing this to you.

Better yet, imagine YOU singing this to yourself.

Let this song make you feel how important and loved you are by the most important person in your life -- yourself!

Have a great week ahead!

Cheers,

Sha

P.S.1 Self love is so important. Ultimately, self love is about self acceptance. Accepting who you are -- your strengths, your beauty, your weaknesses, your uncomfortable emotions, your faults, your past, your present -- and choosing to love and accept yourself as is where is.

Let this song inspire you to love and like yourself -- just the way you are.

As always, if you like the song, please let me know by leaving a comment on YouTube.

P.S.2 I'd like to invite you to the book launch of the graduates of The 90-Day Book Writing Challenge. It's happening LIVE on December 4 (Sat) 3PM - 5PM via my Sha Nacino FB page and Sha Nacino TV YouTube channel.

P.S.3 Andres Bonifacio, the national hero we celebrate today in the Philippines, left the Earth in 1897. He was only 33 then! Woah!

That's 124 years ago today! Yet, he is still remembered by our generation today and the generations to come. Such is the power of his great love for the Philippines!

We offer a special early bird rate until December 4, 2021.
