Yesterday, I started my day with some toasted longganisa and hot chocolate at Breakfast Bin.
Then, I checked out some exhibitions at the Ayala Museum.
I especially liked their Women and War exhibit.
After running some errands, I got myself some pares and siomai from Kanto Pares. Yum!
As a woman, I prioritize self-care because the most important person in my story is me. Seeing empowering exhibits and eating yummy food are just two ways to fuel myself. Happy International Women’s Day!
Yesterday, I managed to wake up and show up to my workout at my local park. I know that I routinely do this, but I was able to appreciate all my efforts to stay fit when I saw the Quezon Memorial in all its glory after a week of rain.
It was beautiful in the sunlight, and I realized that my fitness routine does not lose its value just because I had to squeeze it in between commitments of late. Effort is effort. And just like this monument, I will remain strong amidst all storms because the sun will shine again anyway.
I had a sinful breakfast of hotdog and eggs because I always eat with abandon before visiting my late best friend.
And so I dropped by Diane’s vault and caught her up with the latest on my life.
I may have had a challenging week but I managed to pull myself together. I worked out and visited my late friend. Strength does not need to be manifested in heroic deeds all the time. Sometimes, it is just a matter of knowing my priorities and looking back on my best friend’s life. I am moving on knowing that Diane’s got my back, albeit on a different scale.
