Before The Break Nearly Ends
An eye-catching calendar hanging at our living room's wall caught my asleep desire to make use of my time wisely since I've been totally unproductive. August 22 is fastly approaching and tedious sleepless nights facing loads of school works is slowly waving right at my unprepared mind savoring the short summer break we rarely have at the university. Whenever I'm running out of it and I am in the midst of catching up all the competing deadlines, the things I badly want to do out of the blue specifically recreational activities, like having my own garden used to bother me a lot in that moment haha.
Too often, I feel so motivated to do them more rather than taking care of those piled up crucial responsibilities first. Thus, I end up most of the time looking like a mess while being held accountable with such demotivation's consequences. My grades previously is one of the cases which turned out to be lower than I think I could possibly achieve. You might mock me for thinking how could I be so discontented when it's much better than failing. Well, it just feels so different when you know to yourself its low out of irresponsibility, laziness and unwise decisions most especially when your parents aren't pressuring you, and have been working hard for you to succeed.
Truly worried for that to happen again, listing them down today would presumably be great with regards to my nearly ending break. I am thinking of including those I wasn't able to do and I would really love to, during annoyingly amidst. Remember, always put God first in every aspect of our lives no matter what, when, and how. That lecture in our previous fellowship popped up in my mind. "What can I do to glorify God today?" This is what the lecturer told us to ask ourselves every time we wake up in the morning. This question must be applied all days but let's make it prevail more in this plan.
Winning Souls To Christ + Reading A Chapter In The Bible A Day
I believe this is one of my purpose in life because Christ commanded in Matt. 28:16–20 to go and teach the nations as well as baptize them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. I may not be authorized to baptize, but, sharing the gospel to people and winning them to Christ is the best step I can do as a youth. I've already done these many times before even amidst my studies may it be online through chats and posts, or personal. Yet, as the days go by, the fire to do so was quenched when I'm drowned with watching series and movies. There were times when I got bored watching a lot, but, I didn't feel like sharing anymore. This can be a good start again to discipline and train myself doing it as the world is continuing to revolve.
Reading the Bible, on the other hand, is a great boon in our lives. It won't just comfort us in our darkest times, it would also help us grow and grow spiritually everyday.
Complete Room Makeover
I've been really wanting to achieve this for real ever since the class hasn't ended yet. This has been erased on my mind out of inevitable hustles. Clean. Clean. Clean. A simple cleaning will do, I thought, whenever I rarely remember this activity because I usually don't have the energy to abide with my mind's plan. Years have already passed and my room along with big sister's still the same. It would be lovely to see and nest with, by a new and refreshing ambiance. Before the break nearly ends, I'm strongly anticipating to finally make it done.
Gardening
When I was still a little kid, I've had my garden at the back of our house. Ginger, different kinds of leafy vegetables, moringa olifera, and squash. Got them all from the remains (dunno what to call it) when my parents are cooking vegetables. Time will certainly come unexpectedly when we don't feel like doing those wonderful things anymore hayst. Possibly tomorrow, or the next days, I'll start having one again. I will also try what ate @BCH_LOVERhave shared previously about those unique flower pots made of recycled plastic bottles. Rather than putting flowers, I'm thinking of replacing it with tomatoes because my mother has already tons of flowers here may it be hanging or not.
Play The Guitar
This guitar's bothering me as well. There are times when I don't love strumming it and there are also times when I love to which is I have said amidst annoyingly my hustles. It's good to take a break but then, it demotivated me to do things again. While I still have a lot of free time, might as well grab that opportunity to practice strumming my favorite songs which have been hard for me to strum before.
Watch The Remaining Movies On My List
This hobby of mine has been the hindrance why I wasn't able to be productive throughout the break. Today, I opt to do it in moderation and during when I'm already done with the major important things to be achieved.
These activities are only one of those I've been wanting to do. Before the break nearly ends, wish me well to accomplish them all and even have the ability to still continue them despite my hustles in life. Using our time wisely is crucial in today's fastly revolving world. Once we lose it, we can't take it back. All we can do is to make up for it and make something remarkable that we won't ever regret in the near future. The time might be on your own hands in this aspect but always remember that it is limited, life is unpredictable, and you can lose it in just a blink of an eye.
Have you spent your summer break wisely? That would be all for today.
Thanks. Owe you big time! ✿

I'm working with my evangelism as well 。◕‿◕。 And will also ask myself every single day, what I'll do today to glorify God. Thanks for this idea 💡
