 365 QOTD 

What motivated you today? 

There are days that I set these questions on Canva and every time, I have written something as I answer them in my head. I imagine myself having the ability to just always put my thoughts into words every single time. But I think, it is better that way. We choose those stories we want to immortalize. 

Today, I choose to immortalize. 

I woke up and was good at not going back to bed. But I still have to work on not lingering on my phone before I forcefully put down the phone to get on with my day. First with a cup of espresso and tuna mayo dip for crackers. I forgot the bananas. While packing up things, I had the airfyer going, the chilled rice on thaw at microwave and cookie butter on singles on a ziplock, 

Took a bath, packed up for the day and off I had gone! 

First stop was a private lesson with a young lad who seem to be so chill and relaxed and sometimes I wish I have the same demeanor. 

Next was a  virtual panel/resource speaker attendance at my graduate school's alumni congress. First ever and it was an honor. I can only wish that I really have imparted something vital. Coz honestly, July had been so exhausting. Driving from one place to another, totally broken routine and it is a struggle to keep things in order especially the essentials-- laundry, meal preps , workouts(?), and SLEEP! 

Then, real work started at 5pm. I was just so looking forward for it to end. 

I have longed to put my life in order, in somewhat progressive state no matter how small the rate of change is. And when it gets shaken, I am so scared that I will lose my balance again and be lost all over again. But I have learned to go with the flow without losing my sight of my goals. Sometimes, I lose sight, or wish I have no goals so that when I get lost, I have no regrets. But I would rather have goals, so I have reasons to keep trying to be better and keep failing but keep trying again and again. 

What motivated me today? .... I guess that news that we will finally have our own piece of land to be called our family home by January 2022. My main reason for working abroad was for us to afford a house and lot. Hopefully, on my fifth year, my siblings and I can work on that now. Now. 

Thank You Lord for the little miracles that you shower me. I always pray that I recognize each one of them. I don't want to miss a thing of Your Glory and Faithfulness in my life.

The Man Behind the Metaphors

The skies had been dark like a storm is coming. It had been raining the whole night long and when I woke up that day, I had fears that Sir Jonathan can’t come to school anymore due to the heavy downpour. I opted not to ask for I may just get the dreaded response. I prepared for school. Ate breakfast, brought my laptop since I thought I may just have to stop by a coffee shop after school and finish the item analysis I am doing. It was very difficult to get a ride. I wish I can afford to buy a car and save myself and my stuff from getting wet and so that I can bring more things to school for experiments and so that I can to all the places I wanna go to and I don’t have to worry about over-packing stuff and I have thought about all of these just because its raining heavily and I have no school bus anymore L When I arrived, the school seem deserted. No kids nor parents were at the gate. The guard told me that the principal decided to suspend the class lest the heavy rains cou...

11 Things I Will Miss

Malapit na malapit na! Magpapaalam na ko sa pagkabampira. Ang pinakaunang kong career ay nagsimula sa BPO hanggang sa napadpad na ko sa mga “captive sites” companies, at hindi ko ipagkakaila ang malaking pasasalamat ko sa   pagkakataong naibigay sakin sa loob nang mahigit anim na taon. Marami akong natutunan, maraming nais kalimutan at syempre mas marami yung nais kong manatili lalo na yung pagkakaibigan at mga aral sa buhay na nabuo habang ako'y nasa trabaho at nakikisalamuha. Dahil ako ay magbabagong-buhay, nag-isip ako ng mga bagay na talaga namang mamimiss ko pag umalis ako sa pagka nocturnal being. 1. Airconditioned Office - Ang init ngayon! Obvious naman, ang mga callcenters/corporate centers ay may aircons, may alam ba kayong hindi? Ipagbigay alam sa kinauukulan.  2. Ergonomic Chair - na most of the time ay ergonomic bed na din. Natuto akong matulog nang nakaupo.--those split-second moments of opportunity para makadaupang-palad si Sleep.  3....

Just a few days ago, I posted   This Is Plagiarism   together with other write ups. And I never thought I would have this kind of Reply from   Mr. Tripster   J   who called himself   The Epaloid Lover na Feeling Ako Yung Sinulatan Here’s the entire comment: Mr. Tripster 14 March 2013 08:39 This is epalness.... Hi! I'm fine. It's really great to hear from you. I'm not trapped in the future, I do not dwell in the past. I'm simply in your dreams. You have difficulty finding me because you sometimes look in the wrong places and in the wrong moments of the day. Therefore, I cannot manifest in your world. My present is a blur and yet it's blissful. But everything will be clear if we both make a decisive choice and a giant leap of faith in our lives. How soon? I really don't know. We don't ask silly questions. It's just that sometimes we need wisdom. I'd like to be there now. But I'm no master of my time. I'm n...
