More than anything else this journey I took is my spiritual retreat. I come to find peace and look within myself what I had been doing in my life and what I would want to do next. I found an inner sanctum that nourishes my soul and captures my heart to where I wanted to be.
Over the past two months, I travelled to Singapore, Thailand and Philippines. It has been exhilarating knowing that I just been through a huge surgery and the wounds are just in the process of healing. The theme that I can imagine is YOLO (You Only Live Once) and the last hurrah of my 20s life.
My birthday celebration was not that grand as I told my friends and family that I do not want to celebrate it like its a big deal. But deep inside it is. I just want that my close friends keep me company and that I celebrate it as relaxing as it could be. Perhaps due to my recent surgery that I don't want to be stressed out.
Got some unexpected presents from my family and I am thankful for that. I wish myself more level of maturity which is tilted more on financial stability and growth and looking at the future rather than at present. In short, I disposed of my YOLO-attitude.
I hope I can keep this kind of thinking. I hope that I will get a better job. I hope that I can achieve a higher level of yearning this time. Gone are the days that I wanted this and that ~ materialistic ideal no longer exist (i hope). Maybe losing my valuables told me that luxury isn't for me.
Well I am wrapping it up cos I don't want to bore you with all these. I just wanted to thank all my friends and family who supported me all throughout this journey. They play a significant role in my spiritual retreat. Thank you Lord that you have constantly guided me and comforted me in times of frailty and self-doubt. I keep my faith. I hold on to it and carry it on as I create my life at 30s.
I will be flying out tomorrow and this blog entry is a medium of putting my emotions into writing. Hoping that I don't get too emotional when I leave Manila, my home.
