Monday sundries

October 4, 2021

Hi lovely readers!

I've been busy since 6am this morning. It's was a rainy Monday morning and it feels good to stay in bed. However, it's the first day of the week and so we must be productive and energetic to last till the end of the week.

I'm thinking of sharing the bits and pieces that crossed my mind yesterday. It's only the 4th of October, but it feels like we're already in the middle of the month. Anyhoo, let me start sharing with you those bits and pieces that I wanted to share.

Health.

Health is the most important thing that we should prioritize especially during this pandemic. Not all of us are capable of having ourselves check every now and then. Not everyone is capable of being sick. Therefore, we really have to take care of our health by eating healthy foods, getting enough rest, exercise daily, and if we can take vitamins regularly. We should also follow all the health protocols that the government is imposing on us especially wearing of face mask, face shield, washing our hands, and use of sanitizer. Health is wealth as they say, and being healthy is also being rich.

Death

Ever since this pandemic started there are so many people who left this world. There are so many people who are left grieving by their loved ones. And the worst part of it is people are dying alone without the comfort of their family. They are dying alone without having a chance to see or to talk to their loved ones. And even after they died they are directly cremated because of the fear that the virus might still infect other people. Losing a loved one is so hard especially if that person is your parents. There is something about losing a parent that is permanent and inexpressible - a wound that will never quite heal, an emptiness that will never be filled.

Dreams

I've been having dreams almost every day for about two weeks now. Some are fun, some are weird and some are scary. I'm not sure why all of a sudden I've been having dreams but one thing I'm sure of is that there are dreams that I don't want to wake up, there are dreams that I don't want to end. There are dreams that I shared with Pichi28 just because she is one of the characters and those dreams are fun and weird. The dreams that I don't want to end are the dreams that my parents are there. There is one time that I dreamt that my father is giving me money but I don't like the expression in his eyes on that dream and I don't like the reason why he is giving that money. But still, I don't want to wake up that time just because I'm seeing him again. Of course, there are dreams that I can't remember as soon as woke up but the feeling that I had while dreaming is still there.

My store

My store was closed during the time that I got infected with covid19, although after two weeks our barangay captain allowed us to open on the condition that I'm not allowed to man it until such time that we finish our granular lockdown. My brother volunteer to man the store while I was on my quarantine period and I was glad. However, after I got back, I realized that you really can't entrust your business even to your family. Why? The money is intact, the inventory is intact but the care and love that you give to your own business are different. They just sell period. They don't care about the store as a whole. They don't care about replenishing the stocks so when I get back to my store it feels like it's starting again. But I'm still glad, that they opened and man it because at least my customer doesn't have to walk far just to buy their needs. Lesson learned? Never ever get sick and never entrust your own business with anyone else.

Final thoughts

You never stop learning even if you are sick. You never stop caring or missing the person no matter how long they have been gone. Health is still the most valuable thing in life and the death of someone will always leave you the feeling of emptiness no matter how long they are gone.
