Kim Atienza was among those who reacted to the recent social media post of online content creator Donnalyn Bartolome.
Recall that on Facebook the latter shared her thoughts about "feeling lucky."
She related: "Bakit may sad dahil back to work na? Diba dapat masaya ka kasi may chance ka na pagandahin buhay mo at ng pamilya? Trip ko pa nga may work ng January 1 dahil superstition ko may work ako buong taon pag ganun. Dapat grateful kasi may work. If work makes you unhappy, I hope you find a job that will. Yung pakikiligin ka and sheet. Anyway, this is just a reminder that having a job is a blessing bessss change mindset, it’s 2023!!"
Donnalyn's post immediately received mixed reactions.
In fact, Kim shared: "To do something you enjoy and get paid for it is a blessing. Some are not blessed this way despite the fact that they try so hard to find work they enjoy. They are blessed differently naman. A good wife? Beautiful kids? Good health? Iba iba ang blessings. Ibat iba din ang diskarte sa ibat ibang break sa buhay. Just my 2 centavos. Back to you guys."
In any case, Kim reiterated that his post is not meant to put down Donnalyn in any way.
"She is coming from a good place. The post just hit a raw nerve on the majority of the working public. Mabait si Donnalyn," he explained.
