Now that I have time and inspiration to paint again, I tried painting some of my fave Pinoy snacks!

Another day

When your feeling hopeless but you don't have anyone to talk to. Oh well, better to sleep this off.

Which place to go?

Living in the city can be pretty overwhelming and stressful. Trying to look for solitude, I attempted to visit this place in Pasay. I hastily booked a car through Grab to take me to Tanghalan ni Francisco Balagtas—without carefully checking if I pinned the right location.

While I was appreciating the smooth ride, the driver dropped me off in an unfamiliar place. Apparently, I pinned a different Francisco Balagtas. Luckily the driver was considerate enough to drop me where I can take a jeep/tric to the place I need to go. I can't book him again because he said he's on his way home already. Say hello to Dora the Explorer! I was torn between booking a car again or just go home since the place is an hour away. And so I mustered all my courage and hoped I can go home safely.

I hailed a tricycle and asked him to take me where I can ride jeepneys going to España. At least, he didn't overcharge a bagong salta. Fast forward to my adventure, a good samaritan heard my query to the driver where I can ride back to España. This man approached me and taught me which route I should take and even paid the fare. Which of course, I got skeptical.

Albeit I didn't get to my ~solitary place~, I feel this is the universe telling me that despite all the darkness life can give, there will always be people who will willingly bring the light and take you back home. Or maybe the odds are just in my favor.

So as a celebration, I went to a nearby church, talked to Him and ate kikiam afterwards. Life's good.

“All education is self-education. Period.“

It doesn’t matter if you’re sitting in a college classroom or a coffee shop. We don’t learn anything we don’t want to learn.

Those people who take the time and initiative to pursue knowledge on their own are the only ones who earn a real education in this world. Take a look at any widely acclaimed scholar, entrepreneur or historical figure you can think of.

Formal education or not, you’ll find that he or she is a product of continuous self-education.

Note that some of the sources overlap between various subjects of education. Therefore, each has been placed under a specific subject based on the majority focus of the source’s content.

Encouraging words for you to get through the day 💕🌻

Depression will swallow you whole, chew you up and spit you out as soon as you’re battered and broken. Instead of blaming Depression for your wounds, you ask yourself why you let yourself become so torn up inside. Depression uses its victims as its scapegoat. It drives people to death with the guilt it feeds them. In the end, society and the mentally ill individual accept the fact that the real enemy is not Depression, but the victim themselves. This is one of the true evils of human-kind and existence itself.
