Nothing serious for today, seriously!

November 24, 2021 G'day mate! We are almost at the end of the month my friends and I believe November is being kind to me. I will tell you later. I went out today for some errands. My eldest's modules were already available so I went to her school, for the first time in almost 2 years, and got her modules. Gosh, I almost lost myself finding the highway! I was so silly. My presence of mind saved me. And I was waiting for the jeepney but got impatient. Someone was waiting like me, she looked so chill. My conscience told me, "Just relax and sit like that lady and the jeep will come". But I got impatient and started walking. I was already near the Rotonda or roundabout when the jeepney arrived. I felt embarrassed with myself. I didn't listen to my instinct. I got tired for silly reasons, again. When I was on the jeepney, I was the only one wearing a face shield! I felt so out of place but I thought of my kids' safety and I felt a lot better. The mall was packed with kids. I actually don't agree with allowing them to go inside the mall. We are putting them in danger. The vaccinated 12-17 years olds for me, can do so but not the unvaccinated ones. We all agreed in the house that the kids won't go out unless they have their jabs. So what are my takeaways for today? To not be afraid to try the unknown. It's overwhelming at first but we gotta use our heads. It's there for a reason. The presence of mind is crucial, it can save us from putting ourselves in an uncomfortable situation. And if we are, let us be calm, use our head, and we can definitely find our way out. Sometimes we need to be patient and trust we are taken care of but we tend to be stubborn and do things our way. Like the jeepney, it was pretty obvious that it will be there to take me to my destination but I tried to walk. It still arrived in the end. I wasted my time and effort walking rather than sitting and saved my energy. Raise your hands if you've been like me. There is nothing wrong with being different especially if you're doing the right thing (in general- not wearing a face shield is okay now). Be unique and be bold. Do not be ashamed of your originality. If you're out of place, perhaps that company is not for you. Be comfortable having yourself as your company. There is nothing sexier than someone who is confident and content with himself. I talked about  November as a kind month to me. Yeah, it is because I have exceeded my earnings in the previous months! Thank you so much read and also noise. Because of you I bought my Saoirse an Aveeno lotion for 437 pesos, used 500 when Bam got sick, sent 1320 for my parents' flowers and snacks for Mama's 40th day, and now, I just bought Saoirse's diaper and our toiletries. I feel so blessed, so thank you to my ever-supportive platform and community! So always be thankful, trust, and believe that you will be provided and it will happen. Do not despair and your grace will flow. I went home exhausted and felt kind of getting sick so I rested and I am so much better now. How did your day go mate?
