I STRUGGLED TO LIVE THE LIFE THE WAY I USED TO I'm used to many things. I'm used to being alone. I'm used to leaving alone. I'm used to eating alone. I'm used to going home alone. I'm used to turning down invitations because I prefer to be alone. In short, I'm happy doing the things I do in my daily life, alone. Then one day, things hits differently... I struggled to live life the way I used to, and it all boils down to the stark reality that I'm now residing far from my family. The absence of their physical presence has weighed on me more than I ever anticipated. You see, I had grown accustomed to the routine of daily interactions(even we're not that close), the comforting presence of my loved ones just a room away, the shared meals, and the random conversations. It was something I took for granted, the ability to see them, hear their voices, and share life's little moments with them daily. Now, the distance that separates us has transformed these simple acts into cherished memories, and it has made me acutely aware of their profound significance in my life. While the battle to adapt to this new reality continues, it has also resulted in a great sense of gratitude. Now I'm living my life alone. Fighting for my future. Lol. Just a midnight thougts Good night people✨🌻

It makes sense to me and I can relate. This is one reason besides the financial one why I'm not rushing to move out. There will be a time when they aren't there anymore. And when I'm like 70 it won't make a difference if I moved out with 25 or 30. But my grandparents inviting me a few more times to come over for lunch or me being able to visit my mom at any time actually makes. I refused to apply to any job that I wouldn't have been able to reach by car.
Indeed. Life cycle. It repeats. And fortunately, you have a very nice grandparents that invites you in your most convenient time. Take granted for it as it helps your innerself. I also apply that to me. However, the difference is I have no car so I need to ride 3 vehicles to go home. Hahahaha which I find hard to decide to go home. But atleast, I still can. Hi there, Flip ✨ Hope you're fine.
Oh! I see... The salaries in our field are pretty nice I think. So soon you theoretically could buy a used car. 🤔😁
Hahaha yeah, as long as we did our job pretty nice too😅 Hopefully 🤞🤞🤞
Yes... That's true... 🤔😔 How are you doing in your job? Are you working as a web developer?
Hey, sorry for late reply. Hmmm, so far I was transferred into another line of business which made me stress a lil bit more than before. As I have to adapt new environment. I'm not... I'm afraid I can't. But if I'll have a chance. Why not hehehe. What about you? How's life going? Are you planning to level up more your skills and go to Japan? I'm sure you can do that.
Oh! I see! I hope at least work is still fun! I wonder in which field you are working at? As a developer? For me work is pretty tough but in less than two months I will fly to Japan. I booked most of my vacation days around this time so I don't have to work for almost 1.5 months. 😅
Yeah, people is fun. My colleagues are kind and funny hahaha. Uhmmm nah, I'm not in IT field. I don't know how to explain it but I'm like a Call centre associate but I don't talk to customer via phone calls. I only talk to Department peeps. Woaaah, omg... so proud of you. One of your biggest dreams, I guess😅 is about to come true. That's perfect. Maybe you'll get to know what to do once you're there 😁
Oh! I was assuming IT. I see! So you are doing support! 😁 Please be careful. That can be really tough mentally... I hope so... In the worst case I will spend 90% of the time in my hotel room because I'm too scared.
nice i like the gratitude part.,. and its good to try things and know the value of everything
Yup yup. Though not all time we could think of the positive side, at least, we still realise things at the latter part.
