Am I left behind?

Published by Kima Rodriguez

Honestly, I’m 26 years of age and still living with my parents. Most of the time, I was thinking about the future that I dreamed of. Why am I only here? No significant achievements yet, no house, no car, and no love life. Whenever I see some posts of other people on social media flexing their achievements, activities, careers, or relationship status, I feel sad and insecure. But then I realized that I should learn to appreciate what I have been working on now and then. I should learn to appreciate what God gave me because I’m still lucky to have my degree, job, family with me, friends, and myself. I was so affected by other people’s achievements because I kept comparing my shoes to theirs, yet I didn’t realize that we have our chapters, our journeys, and our own lives. It doesn’t mean that we’re all in the same boat because we have different trips and challenges based on our experiences. In that way, I should learn to love myself more, focus on where …

Paluto by All Day Supermarket

Published by Kima Rodriguez

I’m a food lover, but I can only go out and make random food trips during the weekend with my family because we have no work from that day, and it’s more convenient for all of us (family time). So after Sunday mass, we head to a mall named, All Home. It is known as a one-stop shop for home and renovation needs. We headed there since it’s pretty near and accessible to us. We also planned to dine in for our lunch. All Day Supermarket has a lot to offer. The location of Pluto is near the supermarket. Aside from the grocery store, All Day also has a food area known as “Castroville,” where you can sit, relax, and eat your favorite food. It also has a “Paluto” inside (similar to Dampa services). They can offer you their menu and choose the food you like to eat, or they can also cook your preferred dishes, but you have to buy fresh meats or seafood from their supermarket. These three are my favorites, but we …

Don’t Lose Hope

Published by Kima Rodriguez

Nowadays, many things have changed, and we have no choice but to accept and live with them. There comes a time when a particular point in our lives falls without prior notice. The unexpected happens, and we don’t know how to stand up and fix ourselves. I experienced my downfall. After so many challenges happened in my life, I felt that I just wanted to give up on everything, everyone, and even my life. I experienced such things that I can’t even imagine could happen. But life is life. We don’t know what the future holds. We are just the directors of our lives, but we’re not the owners of it. It is hard to be left alone with people who can’t understand you, but it is more challenging if you distance yourself from the people who care about you. I almost shut everyone out and at this point, you’re going to see who stayed with you at your worst and who just left and stopped talking to you. As time went by, some thoughts …
