Thoughts # 9

You look too far ahead that you forget to live in the present. Your eyes are seeking far but fail to see what is immediate.

Of figuring things out

They say it's okay not to figure things out at this age.. but I don't want to get complacent either. I don't want to suddenly wake up and realize I'm already 30 and still facing the same problems of figuring things out. I don't want to be caught unawares that my time slipped through my fingers.

“Document the moments you feel most in love with yourself - what you’re wearing, who you’re around, what you’re doing. Recreate and repeat. - Warsan Shire”

Another explanation why I love taking pictures. Every detail, every part of the memory or moment must be captured. I can't trust my memory because it tends to create images or scenarios in my head that I want to happen instead of what exactly happened. So as not to miss what really happened and the little details, I snap photos to crystallize those images.

Dry creativity

I've been in a slump lately and no inspiration visits me. I'm also going through changes right now so I'm pretty much busy catching up with life and wading my way through the valleys and bends in the road of change. I guess I won't be able to update this blog as often as I want and if I ever do update it, it will be composed of short texts, pictures and screencaps that I can relate to with a bit of explanation from my side. I guess that would have to do for now. I hope some inspiration will visit me soon.

Thoughts # 7

“Patawad sa lahat ng patawad na hindi nakapagtama ng mali,

nakapag-ulit ng natapos,

nakabawi ng nasayang,

o nakapawi ng sakit.

Patawad dahil ang tanging naibigay ay

patawad lang.” —Hana O.

For some reason, I really find it hard to say sorry when I feel like I did nothing wrong and I'm also hurt in the process. I guess I have a high sense of "self preservation" wherein I must save my feelings first before thinking if I also hurt the person. I better do something about it.
