Hello, it has been awhile.
I honestly did not plan writing again here in this space. But the effect of the iced coffee vanilla of McDo led me here lol.
A lot happened, and funny how I can't recall the details but I can't forget how I felt over the past year. It was miserable. I found myself crying while working, taking a bath, playing, reading, and even attending meetings there's a sudden burst of emotions that I cannot suppress. I felt so lost that I don't have any motivation to get up and face another day.
But if I try to recall a few details here are some: failed relationship, failed the board exams, allowed my work to consume me, toxic workmates, resigned, got rejected by several companies, lost friends along the way, doubted by the most important persons of my life.....
It was tiring. I actually have no idea how to recover from the sorrow and loneliness, how to deal with all of those at once during that time. Playing and sleeping were my only escape. It was tough, but life gets better.
Despite the pain, sorrow and rejections, good things would prevail. I got accepted in a company where peace of mind is not asked but given. The simple statement "I look forward to working with you." reminded me that it will get better. And it did.
And I have never been this content with the kind of life the world has offered me. My heart and my mind are at peace.
I am grateful that I surpassed those survival mode days. Today, I am most grateful for: the comfort my current job is giving me, my hard working parents, my understanding friends. It is true that during your dark days it is easier to just fuck everything and let everything consume you, however, I came to realize that I am still in control of some other stuff that would help me recover.
Cheers to every decision I made that led me here.
