Finding Peace

Sabi nila, ang starfish kapag nasusugatan, bumabalik siya sa kanyang pinanggalingan.

_MG_3886I don’t know how to better put it but I’m drained. /Physically/, because I was having a terrible headache for almost a week now. /Emotionally x Mentally/ for personal reasons, but not /spiritually/ because thank God for Matthew 11:28 and my everyday devotion, I’m still doing fine.

I went home, albeit impulsively, because I’m a starfish._MG_3912I wanted to go to the beach but most of my best friends are busy at work, and I forgot that it was not the same undergraduate years anymore. Isn’t it sad to be driving there alone?

Impulsively, too, one of my mains’ too excited when I texted him of where I want to go because he hasn’t gone there yet._MG_3903Why am I in much need of the nature? Because I’m so sick and tired that earlier today, I just want the world to be quiet for a little while._MG_3874I have been thinking about going back here lately because it has been two years since the last time I visited the place.

I chose the mountains instead of beaches and I just did the right thing.

Here’s the vanity photos. x_MG_3879 _MG_3882 _MG_3887 _MG_3888 _MG_3890 _MG_3891I was so happy that I’ve proven myself that I just need the fresh air to calm the raging storm inside my head. _MG_3897-001Everyone around me know that I don’t really like being stable. I wanted to rest, to just lie down, watch a movie or read my books I haven’t even started yet, but the stability made me feel abnormal, and like I was doing something wrong. _MG_3900 _MG_3902

You know, everyone around me told me to pour my heart out in everything I do, then they ask me why I’m empty.

I was finding peace but then I came to a point that day that it’s already time to stop running away from things that are uncomfortable and hard. It’s already time to confront issues and problems in my life.

“I have a special skill of feeling too much when I shouldn’t, and feeling nothing when I should.”

_MG_3929Bottomline? I found the peace and I had a word.

The peace of God, which transcends all understanding , will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. | Philippians 4:7 x

Like it’s so hot in Ilocos Norte so top the peace-finding with much-needed halo-halo, love. 🙂_MG_3941 _MG_3942
