National Senior Citizens Day

Today is my day too!  In my lifetime, I've had the privilege of being granted three citizenship's: Philippine, New Zealand, and Senior Citizen, and that is more than enough for me!

 I know of some Kiwinoy friends who have relocated to Australia and Canada, after getting their NZ citizenship. Of course, they have valid reasons for doing so and I truly respect them for that. I said more than enough because I'm enjoying the privilege of living and enjoying my life in three ways: Filipino in values, customs, traditions, and belief systems; Kiwi in outlook, mindset, and perspective; Senior in thoughts and deeds.

 "This day was created as a day to support, honor and show appreciation to our seniors and to recognize their achievements.  Their valuable contributions to our communities to create better places to live" (National Day Calendar)

 I wish my fellow senior citizens all over the world a happy and blessed day!
