Let's Talk About April... And Joy

Hello, Love, Goodbye! Time flies faster than I thought, I just said hello to April and started to love it, now I have to say goodbye in a minute more. 

This is just surreal, but everything can be real above the ground, so let’s just keep moving, fighting and living for the next month and days to come. Sometimes I thought we are so blessed to live a life wherein the things we do never resets in every passing month, there is always time to work for that dream and overcome all those miseries. But, what if life resets every month or year, and we can choose again to live an easy life, or belong to a wealthy family, or be free than be in a cold prison, or to live and forget about responsibilities, what if? However, this is not the case, so let's forget about it.

Actually, I just watched this Filipino movie "Hello, Love, Goodbye" on Netflix and I cried at this scene. This was the line Joy truthfully narrates to a guy who seemed to be so liberated on his choices in the past.

“It angers me that I don't seem to have a choice. That I need to do this because I need a job, because we don't have money, because my family needs it. So even if I don't like it, I just have to do it. Having a choice is only for the rich." - Joy 

This was a line from an Overseas Filipino Worker who has been working as a domestic helper in Hongkong from this movie. Her name is Joy and indeed she has been living her life for her family. We all said that, WE ALWAYS HAVE A CHOICE, but are we? It seems that Joy was so right about it, considering her family’s situation. 

Anyway, let’s talk about April. 

This month has been a roller coaster. My life is good, thank God… but my mind isn’t. This month has been about choices for me, and my poor mind has been in chaos still. And, I’m sure you’ll be in a mess deciphering my thoughts up there because this is just me. My introverted self wanted to be an introvert, so let me be.

Last week, I wrote about “My Flying Mind,” and though I can’t be honest enough, at least that is how I feel, not the beautiful mind, or the criminal mind, but the overthinking mind. Sigh. And, this is the reason why I have been slacking most of the time here. You know the feeling that you’ve been thinking so much yet there is nothing to talk about. 

I think I have to blame my flying mind too with my injured left ankle a couple of weeks ago. As I go through this month’s predicament, this verse caught my eyes while reading His word the other day.

"A double minded man is unstable in all his ways." - James 1: 8

So, reality bites. My mind plays tricks on my balance too… and perhaps on my choices as well. Sigh... again... But, prayers can move mountains. Let's do it!
