As i got older, i realized that the secret to getting through the day isn't about staying positive - it's about acceptance. accepting that not every day will be good or happy, that bad days will happen, mistakes will be made, failures will come, and things won't always work out perfectly - and that's completely okay..๐
I voted to strike the remarks of Rep. Bong Suntay about Anne Curtis from the record of the House Justice Committee hearing, as I find them unacceptable and disturbing.
