Can’t Say No To My Mom

As I write this post, I'm already lying in bed while listening to music. It's been a while since the last time I listen to any songs here on my playlist. It's just past 9:00 pm here and I should be sleeping by now but I took a nap at 4:00 pm and woke up …

Opportunities To Grab In This Pandemic

Maybe most of us complain about how annoying this pandemic does to our plans, work and relationship. We make negative things as the center of our attention and didn't even manage to see the good opportunities that it can bring to us. This morning, I had this thought about how can I stay productive and optimistic even I still can't do what …

Why I Have Decided To Take A Break

Earlier today, while I was writing in my journal, my mind got blank in a split second. By that time, I know something is wrong with me. Yes, I’m sick since yesterday but what I worry about is my wholeness. I don't know what makes me feel sad, irritated, always on the verge of sobbing …

Don’t Give A Damn

Since when I was a kid, my Mom taught me not to care about what other people are going to say about me. That I shouldn’t allow people to give me validation and I shouldn’t ask for it as well. And that’s when I started to master the art of not giving a damn. Giving …

Why Do We Have To Lie

Have you ever wonder why people lie? I always ask myself why do we lie when we can all be honest in everything we say and do. I admit that I lied too but most of them were just white lies. But whether it’s a big or small act of dishonesty, it doesn’t matter. The …

Everything Happens for A Reason

There’s no such thing as a coincidence. I always believe that everything happens for a reason. I don’t blame myself or anybody with my loss, sadness and despair. There are maybe some days that I question my self how I ended up with some unfortunate circumstances but I think it’s normal. My best friend called …

Why It’s Best to Shut People Out (Sometimes)

One of the best ways to keep us positive and happy in life is probably by shutting people out. I know it’s not that easy to do especially if the person we want to get away from is close to our hearts. But for the sake of our well-being, it’s good for us to avoid …

How This Pandemic Changed The Way I See Things

Earlier today, the government has decided to lift the quarantine period in my place on the 16th of May. It means that people are already allowed to travel freely without the use of a quarantined pass. I can’t say that we can go back to our normal lives because there is still no cure for …
