Things I Love Sundays: Nobody Can Steal this Peace
I can't tell you everything but I can tell you that I still get shaken. I still get information and life events that I don't completely like. However, very recently, I am proud to say that I was able to rise above it -- look beyond the bad and forge on, be a normal, responsible adult and retain my joy.
I'm not going to lie: it was painful still and I may have slinked back to some old habits because of it. But still, I guarantee you, if you're not well within your 30s yet, that at some point when you get there, you will calm and cool despite things you thought merited a crazy, emergent and hysterical action.
I don't attribute this to myself. It's a lot of prayers, a lot of meditation and listening to my favorite YouTube pastors {yep, Joel Osteen} and Wayne Dyer wisdom. It takes a lot of faith and acceptance that things will end up where they need to be.
In other news
It was a long weekend in the Philippines so naturally, I took this time to make myself sawa with being at home, chaperoning Butters with his date with Chewie, drowned myself in the loneliness and longing of Wong Kar Wai's movies. I don't think I've recovered yet, my heart still hurts from Chungking Express and In the Mood for Love.
If you need my other movie recommendations, I am no film expert but do check out my Letterboxd profile and lists. Speaking of movies, I also binge watched Netflix originals like Set It Up {aok and v. funny, just like how a rom com should be}:
AND an all time favorite, Queer Eye Season 2:
Feminist Favorites Younger and The Bold Type are back for Season 5 and Season 2, respectively.
This is enough to sustain me for the week! :D Happy Work Week again!
