Everyday Stories, Lived

  • Dismissing people

    It’s easy to dismiss people when the noise inside your head already drowns you in — you can’t hear anybody but yourself. And so you miss the details, you miss the nuances. You slowly drift away, then apart. Farther from people who deeply care for you. Yes, you want to be cared for, and you Read more

  • Make your day longer or shorter, your call

    If you want to make your day longer, go out and travel. Spend time with people who matter to you or meet new people. Feel the wind against your skin or hear the trees rustle. Go out and be in the hustle and bustle of the busy street. Be in the zone, do what you Read more

  • Neglect and irresponsibility

    I did not make a list anymore, so I am usually caught up in-between tasks that don’t necessarily help me achieve what I intend to finish within the day. How often do you neglect goal-setting? How do you spend your time? Perhaps, living a carefree life is admirable. But there are things we have to Read more

  • Ignorance hurts, so as inattention

    Sometimes, we let things pass not because we want to but because it is the right thing we can do. Right means that we don’t want to hurt people; instead, we forgive because we are people. And people make mistakes. As a people, we sometimes make the wrong judgment because of our ignorance or inattention. Read more
