Miss me? I missed all of you too :*
Hey! How are things on this side of the web? As you may have known, I have just gotten into a manufacturing industry and suffice to say, it has eaten up most of my time and cares.
Life has not been short of surprises these days. From a heartbreak to the death of a relative, I’m surprised that I still haven’t broken down - yet. Well, symptoms have started showing up in the forms of stress eating and mental health leaves but I still get by.
You may be wondering why after all this time I have finally decided to post. Well, something happened yesterday with a coworker. It struck me so hard that up until this very hour I am feeling like proving somebody wrong.
This guy came up to me and said, "I'm going to say this bluntly, ha. You look clueless."
And instead of losing my cool, I composed myself. I took it in, not feeling all defensive and just said, "That's okay, I can handle the truth."
And by some weird magic, I turned my attention to the things that were actually happening in front of me. I was way in over my head that I forget that the real perils of the world are on the outside, not in my head.
I relished every sip of the coffee that I just had. I opened up to the same guy about the things that were going on in my life at that time. I noticed every word that I said, every person that I talked to. And the one thing that kept me going despite operating on just four hours of sleep and three cups of coffee was -
Fuck you, man. I may look clueless to you but looking and being are two different things. You will be wiping your sorry ass off when I woman the fuck up.
F*ck off.
Very good! Perfect response. The guy doesn't stand a chance.
To set things straight, I didn't say anything to the guy in person. Haha, I just said this mainly to myself. Thanks for the cheer though @straightwalker
yes, good, that's what I thought
OMG!!!! YOU GO GIRL!!!!!!!!!
I missed you @thegaillery! Your monthly motivational posts too! You look so beautiful btw.
Nadala na jud ko sa life, Ree. But I will pick myself up. When I have fully done so, I hope I can write positive things again. Thank you!
Take all the time you need Gail! Go lang ng go!
