Self 🩷

Sometimes you will lose interest in things you used to enjoy, not because you don't want them anymore, but because your soul craves silence and inner peace. 

It's sometimes better to lie down on your bed and listen to your favorite music or watch your favorite movie alone, away from your phone and all the notifications that bother you from time to time.

It's sometimes better to devote your time alone and reflect on what you want to do, why you keep tolerating stagnant routines, and why you keep staying in places where you don't belong.

Sometimes you have to pay attention to your body and mind when it tells you to take a break from the outside world, take care of yourself, and rest until you feel like yourself again. 

The world does not revolve around your smile, your love for someone, or your excitement; rather, the process includes silence, sadness, and solitude.

Take a deep breath and remind yourself that you can comprehend all of this without worrying about what others will think because this is your life and there are no justifications for putting yourself first.

Bakit Sya?

"Bakit siya?" "Kasi alam niya yung ingay kung bakit ako tahimik". Matagpuan mo rin sana ang taong handa kang makabisa sa sandaling hindi ka naiintindihan ng iba. Alam kung paano ka mapakalma at sanay kang pasanin kapag hindi mo na kaya.  Dahil madaling makakita ng taong kaya kang sabihan nang paulit-ulit ng 'mahal kita' Ngunit ang makatagpo ng taong kabisado at uunawa sa iyo talaga— mahirap nang makakilala.

Learn to say NO sometimes

I want you to know that your kindness is a gift, and that your willingness to share it with everyone you meet shows how sincere your heart is. I do, however, want you to be aware that there are some situations in which you must refuse certain people. You don't need to provide an explanation if you decline something. If you are aware that you are fatigued emotionally, psychologically, and physically, it is acceptable to say no. Even if just temporarily, it's acceptable to put your happiness and personal space first because you need to assess what's wrong with you and why you keep tolerating the same people. It doesn't mean you're a harsh or cruel person; it just means you value yourself enough to avoid anyone or anything that makes you doubt your worth.

Stay

I hope you find the courage to step away from the things that aren't good for you.  I hope you find the strength to let go of the person who feels like "the one" but doesn't work out for you, all along. I hope you find the will to throw away all your what-ifs from the open doors that could lead you to a wrong path. I hope you find peace in accepting that "just because it's beautiful, doesn't mean it's meant for you."  And in the end, I hope you still believe that your heart, your feet, and your dreams will eventually find a place where they truly belong.
