Seasoning

It's not a rosy life for me. I was hoping things would be easier after I left my busy work life. I've been having some challenges which have been causing sleep issues again. I'm just looking at it as a way for me to become more seasoned. I'm just glad my siblings are behind me and supporting every step of the way even though they're far away.

I am usually very impatient when problems crop up. I want them immediately resolved. The current issue I'm trying to fix is a delicate one and I have to be very careful about making a move. It's been making me sleepless, but I feel this is a good way for me to learn to be chill. 

I'm actually surprised I've been able to hold back and not strike first, think later. It's probably because of all the crazy challenges I've been through. It's funny because when I attended the Youth Encounter when I was about to graduate high school we were asked to make a list of problems. I didn't have any. My life was so simple back then and the only worry I had was graduating high school with good grades. 

I lived a very sheltered life. The challenges started coming when I was allowed to experience the outside world. Made a lot of bad decisions, but Titay told me she was proud of me because I took responsibility for all my mistakes. My Mom told me that when you have problems it's God way of reminding you that He loves you. God truly showed me how much He loves me in the last 3 decades lol.

Have a problem? Just chill and listen to God's guidance. I know I've been sleepless because I've been itching to resolve it immediately. There are issues though that require time and patience to resolve. Hopefully it'll all be over in a week. 

Please pray for us.

The Saga Continues, Keeping the Faith

It was a busy day for us today. We both had to see our doctors. I had to see a new doctor today because the doc in the other hospital thought that this doctor could care for me better. I'm fine with it since the other hospital is closer to where I live. 

I honestly did not expect for another issue to crop up. I just had a routine check-up and that's when the issue was flagged. I am scheduled to have another test next week. I hope the results would not be problematic. I've been through a lot already, I just hope and pray things would get fully better now. 

Meanwhile while waiting for the test I've been working hard to increase the exercises I do in a day. I do wall push-ups and exercises in the morning (really helps support my back and lungs). And then I use the exercise bike. I've been dreaming of the day when I can get a bicycle and go around our village again. One thing I've totally forgotten to do is the Justin Agustin gentle exercise regime I enrolled in. I'll resume it tomorrow!

Day 13 Minimalism Challenge, Make a gratitude log. I did this as a challenge awhile back. I think about feeling grateful everyday especially when I feel down. For today I'm truly grateful for healthcare workers for their care.
