#DailyReflections #LifeLogs

Just tonight, I was reminded by a dear friend to "be a bottle of water and not a bottle of soda".

In life, it's just so much easier to be the latter; to react negatively and not respond positively to unfavorable situations that we cross path with. Just like a bottle of water or soda, the world's gonna shake you and rattle you in almost every opportunity it could, and when you choose to be more of a soda, you'll likely explode the moment you open up, as compared to water, who'll be the same calm water before it was shook or rattled.

Us, being the master of our own selves has the power and the control over how we respond to different situations. That being said, we are in control of the allowable extent of how other people and this world can affect or influence us, our behavior, our values and beliefs. When we let others control our emotions, we're like allowing them to program us to be just like them. While it's not necessarily bad at all times especially when you have great people to surround you that inspires you to be a better version of yourself everyday; having people full of hate and insecurities surround you may just the same make you hateful and insecure.

I'm going to end this reflection with a quote by Pema Chodron which I stumbled upon a few days ago, "Inner peace begins the moment you choose not to allow another person or event to control your emotions". When you're finally in control of your self, what could go wrong? 😉😅❤️

today was a good day!

went to a family lunch with my girlfriend and introduced her to my cousins and my aunt. I think they liked her! she was going to catch a train back to Guimarães at 17:30 but she lost the train due to heavy traffic in Lisbon... it was good and bad because I spent 20€ on a new ticket but on the other hand she spent one more day with me :) we had dinner at a vegetarian buffet restaurant called Jardim das Cerejas. I really like this venue but the food today was pretty weird... I was so sick I didn't eat that much...

Woke up pretty late! Took my girlfriend to lunch at Padaria Portuguesa at 5 o'clock... Then we went shopping for lasagna ingredients! We had something like a double date I guess with some friends. The dinner was great and the night was kind of short... I was so stupid that I drank without any responsibility and ended the night trowing up on my bathroom... Protip: Don't mix wine with tonic Gin....

Valentines day! Oh yeah, my girlfriend arrived today! I was feeling a bit sick in the morning so I went home after lunch. Did some shopping and bought a Gin bootle, tonic, lemons and some vegetarian sushi to surprise her :) Put some candles on my room and set a romantic ambience with this playlist .

It was a great night :) 

Oh and I didn't do this because it's Valentines day, I really don't understand this day... It was created by our consumerist society and I hate it. I did this because I'm a romantic guy.
